    When It Seems That God Is Not Doing Anything, What Are We To Do?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 28, 2023
     | 995 views

    When we find ourselves in a dry deserted place and time in our walk with the Lord, and things do not seem as if they are getting better, do we just give up?

    When It Seems That God Is Not Doing Anything, What Are We to Do? 1 Kings 19:1-18 This is a story about one of two men that did not die. Enoch walked with God and was taken so that he did not see death and Elijah was taken up to heaven in a whirlwind. In the preceding chapter, Elijah has a contest ...read more

    To emphasize the importance of staying connected to Jesus, as it is only through Him that we can bear fruit and truly thrive in our spiritual lives.

    Calling Series

    Contributed by Josh Foster on Feb 18, 2014
     | 7,687 views

    1) 'calling' is an invitation to follow; 2) calling is the adventure as following unfolds; 3) to respond to the calling in faith will involve some “leaving”; and 4) calling always originates with and centers upon Jesus.

    Just Words: Calling Scripture Text: John 1.43-50 INTRODUCTION Mindin’ his own business! He was minding his own business, …sitting under the shade tree, …doin’ his devotions. That’s-what Nathanael was doing just-before his friend, Philip, came and turned-his-world ...read more

    Lenten thoughts as we contemplate the sacrifices we make for Christ and compare those to the sacrifices he has made for us.

    In the lesson that we have read there were huge crowds of people following Jesus. They were listening to his sermon, hanging on his every word. Some of them were listening intently betting their souls on him and still others were listening to him and waiting for him to talk himself right into a ...read more

     | 5,606 views

    Using the pattern of MLK’s famous speech, this message tries to set forth a congregational vision.

    I have a dream (With apologies to MLK, jr. 1962) In the Old Testament we are told that young men shall see visions and old men shall dream dreams (Joel 2:28). Some of you know that 3 or 4 times a year I am blessed with dreams about this congregation while I sleep. In most of these dreams I see ...read more

     | 3,908 views

    God is the one who invites us, meets us and engages us in worship. It is also God who receives our worship. Look at this story in John 4 through the lens of worship.

    Isn’t it amazing how God layers truth upon truth within the Biblical text? Today, I invite you to see one truth from John 4. This is not to to suggest that this is the only truth, or necessarily the highest truth. But I believe you will see it certainly is a truth. As we read through this text from ...read more

    We are in a spiritual fight, and we need to recognize that we have the necessary tools and forces to not give up, but to go to the last round where Jesus Christ will be the final victor, and peace, truth, and justice will prevail.

    Mark 9:38-50 “Just Let Jesus” Many of you are familiar with the blockbuster movie Rocky, in which a very muscular, physically fit, local Philadelphia guy, Rocky Balboa, fights the world’s heavy weight boxing champion Apollo Creed. In the first smash hit, Rocky fights Apollo for 15 rounds, but ...read more

    As children of God and members of the Body of Christ, we are basically clueless as to the awesome power which has been vested in Christ’s New Testament Church, through His gifts working through us.

    Virtually every cardinal doctrine in the Holy Scripture is covered in Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. Ephesians consists of two basic truths - positional truth and practical truth. In studying this blessed book, I counted thirty nine different benefits which are ours as members of Christ’s Body ...read more

    We can love more perfectly through knowledge and discernment.

    Learn How to Love Attention: I want to talk to you about love. Love is universally appreciated but is often misunderstood. Much of what passes for love in our society is not true love.
