    Setting Our Minds On Divine Things

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Sep 12, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 968 views

    Jesus taught his disciples to set their minds on divine things such as denying themselves and taking up their crosses to follow him. He added to that statements about "losing" our lives and to not be ashamed of the Gospel. What does all this mean?

    THERE ARE PASSAGES IN THE BIBLE THAT CAN CREATE FEAR AND POSSIBLY DISTRESS DUE TO THEIR BLUNT, BUT HIDDEN MEANING. IN LUKE 14:26, WE ARE TOLD THAT “IF ANYONE COMES TO ME AND DOES NOT HATE FATHER AND MOTHER, WIFE AND CHILDREN, BROTHERS AND SISTERS—YES, EVEN THEIR OWN LIFE—SUCH A PERSON CANNOT BE MY ...read more

    Jonathan Series

     | 3,562 views

    In an era of cancel culture and the quest to remain in power at all cost, the story of Jonathan is worth knowing about.

    November 26, 2022 We know virtually nothing about Jonathan. He was the oldest son of Saul and Ahinoam and next in line for the throne of Israel. The Bible does not tell us if he was married, but we are told that he had a son, Mephibosheth, who was 5 years old when Jonathen was killed on Mt. ...read more

    The Lord Jesus wants His followers to deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me.

    Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, today we will reflect on a theme related to discipleship. And we will learn about the price a disciple must pay through what the Lord Jesus said in His teaching. In the passage of God's word we see that the Lord Jesus told the people who were following Him ...read more

     | 1,320 views

    This sermon explores the dangers of spiritual complacency, urging believers to avoid lukewarm faith and instead strive for genuine commitment to God.

    Praise the Lord this morning, cherished family of faith! It's such a joy to stand before you today, not as a stranger, but as a fellow traveler on this road of faith, a road that is often winding, often challenging, a lot of times hilly leading to valleys of trials, but always leading us closer ...read more

    "greater Works Or Great Excuses"

    Contributed by Anthony (Tony) Charles on Aug 17, 2025
     | 310 views

    Jesus promised believers would do greater works than He did, but instead of operating in God's power, we've substituted excuses for the supernatural works we're called to perform.

    GREATER WORKS or GREAT EXCUSES Text: John 14:12 – “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.” Mark 16:17-18 And these signs will accompany those who believe: In My name they ...read more

    We are chosen by God to be His special people, set apart to proclaim His goodness to those in darkness.

    Peter says we're chosen by God, and we're His. That's a promise from way back that still counts today. You're not just some random kid; you're God's kid. You're not just some random kid; you're God's kid. Peter dares us to live like we mean it. Actions speak louder than words, and people are ...read more

    You Reap What You Sow

    Contributed by Shawn Miller on Nov 21, 2014
    based on 4 ratings
     | 30,060 views

    This sermon ties the law of reaping and sowing from Galatians to Jesus words of sowing judgmental-ism and self-righteousness vs. sowing charity and forgiveness and the fruit of both

    You Reap what you Sow Ill. Late one summer evening in Broken Bow, Nebraska, a weary truck driver pulled his rig into an all-night truck stop. The waitress had just served him when three tough looking, leather jacketed motorcyclists - of the Hell’s Angels type - decided to give him a hard ...read more

    Preventing A Spiritual Tragedy Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Nov 30, 2024
     | 638 views

    Ever wished you could have prevented a great tragedy? Just as there are great physical tragedies with lasting consequence, so there are great spiritual tragedies with eternal consequence. The Apostle Paul seeks to prevent a great spiritual tragedy in the fledgling church at Corinth, Greece.

    How many of you here have been associated with a preventable tragedy? What I'm talking about here are bad things that happened to people you knew or know which could have been prevented. These bad things would not have happened if someone hadn't been ignorant or naïve, or ...read more

    Deepseated shame and objective guilt arise from a self-serving spirit, but the Cross delivers us from both and frees us to live out of gratitude.

    Mark it down. Memorize this. Engrave it somewhere. It is an ironclad rule. This will always happen: when it is the least convenient for you to respond, someone will want you to respond. When it is nearly impossible for you to get up and do what someone wants you to do, that is the very moment ...read more

     | 7,155 views

    Paul counters the false expectation of ’prosperity theology’ by giving his readers A Strategy for Living and The Antidote to Self-pity to enable them to be Master of Every Situation.

    MASTER OF EVERY SITUATION I wonder if you’re like me always looking at the barometer - it doesn’t stay in one place very long. Life is very much like that. If I were to draw a graph of my life in terms of feelings and experiences it wouldn’t be a straight line and I suspect many of you would ...read more

    This message is part of series from Isaiah paralleling ancient Israel and America. Israel was attempting to exault itself. It exposes the problem of human pride and self-sufficiency.

    ISAIAH 2:6-11 FULL, BUT EMPTY Deuteronomy 18:9-14 Why is it imperative that Israel learn to walk in the light of the Lord? Because there is no future or hope in their present condition and way of life. Isaiah now depicts the foolishness of humanity attempting to exalt itself. The cause ...read more
