    To be ready for Jesus, to be ready for God, we have to be in the habit of turning Godward at every crossroads.

    Procrastination. Putting things off. It’s a fault that most of us have had to wrestle with, one time or another. And you know what causes it? Do you know why people procrastinate? I’ve decided that we procrastinate when we don’t want to do what we know we ought to do. And so we wait for something ...read more

    I am not talking solely about Christ's return today. We should live our lives in such a way that every day people see Jesus in us. And then, when Christ returns, we’ll be unashamed before Him.

    I want to start off today by naming a few random items. As I name these items, I want to know what do you think of as I name these things. A flashlight. A battery-operated radio. A cell phone charger. And bottled water. What do you think of? Usually when we gather items like these it is ...read more

    This message looks at the believer’s responsibility to remain faithful in sharing the light of Jesus and proclaiming the gospel. It also views the horrible fate that awaits those who do not have the light of Christ abiding within them.

    This evening’s message is entitled, “Keep Your Lamps Burning,” and it’s taken from what is called, “The Parable of the Wise and Foolish Virgins.” Back when I was in high school, our choir once sang an old Negro spiritual that went like this: “Keep your lamps trimmed and burning, for the time is ...read more

    How Prepared Are We, Really?

    Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Oct 24, 2020
     | 5,259 views

    In the parable of the 10 virgins, the whole point is being ready - truly ready - for coming face to face with Jesus - either when He returns or when we go to Him. This message, which relies heavily on William Barclay for context and content in the first part, explores this theme.

    How Prepared Are We For Jesus? If we look at this parable with western eyes, it may seem an unnatural and a "made-up" story. But it actually telt tells a story that could have happened at any time in a Palestinian village and which could still happen today. A wedding was a great ...read more
