    Where is God? This was my first sermon at a new church, and it showed several priorities: worship, ministry, and outreach.

    Acts 17:16-28 – Not Far From Each One of Us Today I would like to share with you a fairly simple thought. It’s been debated and dissected over the years. A person may not know what to do with it, but one thing is for sure: you can’t escape it. That truth... is that God is near. ...read more

    To seek after God, to follow His ways, means we must believe that His is – ever present, all knowing, all powerful.

    Acknowledge God ACT up part 1 12/13/09 AM Text: Philipians 3:13-16 INTRODUCTION In our lesson last Lord’s Day we considered “our year in review”, and the need to conduct or look back over this year almost past through the filter and standard found in the Word of God. And there is ...read more

    David: His First True Love Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Nov 21, 2020
     | 4,832 views

    We sometimes forget that David was human and would enjoy companionship. One day he found his first true love and she was closer than he ever thought possible.

    Introduction: David was a young man when Samuel anointed him to be king over Israel and only a few years older, most likely, when he went into battle against Goliath. In the days and months afterwards, God was with him and blessed him in every way. But something that was not mentioned is David’s ...read more

    Friendship With God

    based on 14 ratings
     | 8,767 views

    Prayer is more than just asking God. It is communion between two friends. God seeks friendship with man, for He is an intensely personal God.

    The passage we’ve just read today is prayer – when a man meets God and talks to Him. It is, the Bible says, “as a man speaks with his friend” (v.11). We will not fully understand prayer if we think about it only as something to do with asking something from God. Prayer is not just about ...read more

    The Sermon So Nice, It Got Preached Twice

    Our Old Testament Lesson brings us Isaiah 61, a wonderful lesson which speaks of the Messiah coming to redeem God's People. Jesus made this the first recorded sermon He preached in Luke 4, telling the men of Nazareth that He is the Messiah Isaiah told about.

    The Sermon So Nice It Got Preached Twice Good Morning!! We have a very special lesson from Isaiah this morning that I would like to dig into for my first sermon of the year. It’s good to use it as a first sermon, because it’s the text for the first “recorded” sermon Jesus gave. We can begin with ...read more

    Even when everything you are doing seems right, if you don’t seek God’s will you might be doing something wrong.

    There are certain traits that should characterize a believer who serves the Lord. We are to obey him in doing good works, so others can see God’s love and kindness through us. We are to teach God’s word with passion and conviction.

    If our lives ended today, how would those around us assess our contribution to our fellow man? Our example leaves an impression on others. With God’s help, it will be one of love, faith and purity of life. The book of Titus captures the pattern God gave for every believer and the direction ...read more

     | 4,649 views

    There are, still today, many congregations that are full of bickering and selfishness. These things tear the church apart and keep them from fulfilling God’s call in their life. Paul addresses this sort of church when he wrote to the church in Corinth. Hi

    1st Corinthians 1:1-9 January 20th, 2002 To hurting congregations! What matters most is what God offers first!
