    Philip shared Jesus with an important man who was reading Isaiah 53. God sent Philip to share the gospel and after hearing about Jesus the eunuch wanted to be baptised immediately.

    Always Speaking Youth Sermon

     | 777 views

    God is still speaking to us today, and we can hear His voice through various means such as creation, our conscience, circumstances, Jesus, the Bible, the Holy Spirit, and the Church.

    Ever tried tuning into a radio station and all you get is static? But when you finally hit the right frequency, the music comes in loud and clear. That's kind of like how it is with God. He's always broadcasting, but we need to tune into His frequency to hear Him. Let's check out a dude from the ...read more

    Sealed: God's Unbreakable Promise Series

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Sep 13, 2025
     | 217 views

    This sermon explains that when believers hear the gospel and trust in Christ, they are sovereignly sealed by the Holy Spirit, which marks them as God's authentic, secure, and permanent possession.

    Introduction When we make a significant purchase or enter into a serious agreement—buying a piece of land, for example—we don't just rely on a verbal promise. We want something official. We want a document, a title, a notarized deed of sale. We want to see that official stamp, that seal. A ...read more

    The Parable Of The Sower Explained.

     | 851 views

    The Word of God is good seed (Luke 8:11): of that there is no doubt. So why is it that it does not have a good result in the lives of all those who hear it? The fault is in the soil.

    THE PARABLE OF THE SOWER EXPLAINED. Luke 8:4-15. There were great crowds pressing to see Jesus, straining to hear His words, or perhaps hoping for a healing touch. We can imagine Jesus spotting a farmer sowing seed somewhere nearby, and using this to illustrate His own ministry. This parable ...read more

    The news and letters that were causing the alarm for the church at Thessalonica was that they missed Jesus coming again. But Paul is giving them something solid they can hear and read that will counter all the misinformation.

    Have you read something or heard something that really alarmed you? Does everything going on around you these days make you unsettled? Probably you have been alarmed and unsettled. It is that way now, and it was the case for the Christians in first century Thessalonica. Paul is writing them in the ...read more

    Revive Your Dead Spirit

    Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Oct 7, 2024
     | 1,233 views

    In this passage, we hear a call to recognize spiritual decline, to reconnect with Christ, and to be receptive to the Holy Spirit. This is not an easy task, but it is one that we are called to undertake, not just as individuals, but as a community of believers.

    Welcome, dear friends, to this sacred space, a sanctuary where we gather, not just as a congregation, but as a family. This is a place where we come together, bound by our shared faith, our shared love for Christ, and our shared desire to grow closer to Him. Today, we find ourselves standing on the ...read more

    Parables Concerning The Kingdom, Part 1 (Matthew 13:1-23)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 13, 2025
     | 263 views

    Matthew, Chapter 13, presents a series of stories, or parables, Jesus used to illustrate the concepts of the kingdom of God, the approaching judgment, and the work of the devil. Listen, if you have ears to hear.

    The thirteenth chapter of Matthew's gospel focuses upon the parables of Jesus. As the Master got into a boat while teaching the people on the shore of the Sea of Galilee, He told a story about a man whose job it was to sow seed into ground that had been tilled in order to grow crops. In the ...read more

    Five Keys To Answered Prayer

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 17, 2023

     | 3,493 views

    Effectiveness in prayer is more than a matter of volume. We pray in the context of our relationship with God. We learn to align ourselves with the will of God so that we are partnering with him rather than trying to persuade him. This message teaches how to pray in faith for results.

    Intro In this message we will review five keys to answered prayer. When we make our requests to God, we are not just fulfilling a religious duty. We are interacting with our Heavenly Father concerning a perceived need. Our petition is not effective until we either get the answer or get counsel from ...read more

    This verse is often quoted in connection with various prayer campaigns, like National Day of Prayer and other times when we are called to seasons of prayer. We are familiar with this verse, but now let’s look at the background of this verse.

    We know that prayer is the Christians vital breath of life. How is your prayer life? How long has it been since you really dwelt in the presence of God? It can be convicting to come to the realization we have drifted, and our prayer life is not what it once was. What can we do about it? The answer ...read more
