Layman And Evangelism Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 20, 2021

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 2, 2025

"Even So, Come, Lord Jesus.”

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jan 31, 2022

In this message, we would like to take these three verses and look at the prayer John prayed that we seldom pray.

John prayed for the return of the Lord! Illus: When we think of the return of the Lord Jesus, we can not help thinking of the game children often play.

Our Daily Bread Series

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Jun 30, 2024

Approaching the Lord, especially at His communion table, requires reverence and repentance, as taking communion unworthily can lead to judgment. Our true desire should be a maturing relationship with the Lord, continually surrendering to His will and deepening our devotion to Him.

Poor In Spirit (All Saints Sunday)

Contributed by Scott Jensen on Nov 7, 2023

Jesus spoke to the Disciples, and to the crowd, but He also speaks to us. He spoke to the 'poor in spirit' and explained that they were blessed. But, who and what are the poor in spirit? This sermon attempted to answer that question.

Cleaning Services

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 18, 2023

We have been forgiven in Christ for the sins that we have committed and confessed. But the underlying condition out of which these sins arise - what’s to be done about that?

“Out, damned spot!” may be one of the most widely recognized lines Shakespeare ever wrote. I wonder why? In a more innocent age it might have been for the forbidden thrill of saying “damn.” But of course that doesn’t apply any more, does it. It’s one of the milder epithets available. If that’s the ...read more

The Great Wall was built over a period of 2,300 years! It is the longest man-made structure in the history of the world and has a ...read more
