    What Fruit Do I Bear?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 4, 2023
     | 1,297 views

    In this passage of Scripture, Jesus teaches about the fruit in people’s lives.

    False prophets were recurrent in Old Testament times. They forecasted just what the king and the local people wanted to hear, asserting that it was God's message. False teachers are similarly as frequent today. Jesus says to be careful with those whose words sound religious however who are ...read more

    What Are We To Do If There Is A Tater Family In Our Church?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 8, 2023
     | 1,845 views

    Although the title to this message mentions a Tater Family, the passage of Scripture speaks about the servants working with the pounds. Do Christians of today resemble the servants in the Scripture?

    This is the story about the pounds. This story tells of a certain nobleman who received a kingdom, and it showed the followers of Jesus what they were to do during the time between when Jesus would leave and his Second Coming. The followers were to be unwavering and fruitful while he was gone. ...read more

    Trust God

    Contributed by Melvin Maughmer, Jr. on Feb 5, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,204 views

    Trust in God is more than a concept, it’s an action and a faith-filled journey that brings us closer to God. It is a deep-seated belief in His omnipotence, omniscience, omnipresence, and love, understanding that His plans for us surpass our very comprehension.

    “Trust God” By Bishop Melvin L. Maughmer, Jr. OPENING: - Today I want to deal with a simple topic but in its simplicity is truly complex. That is simply Trust God. So often people will try to encourage you when you are dealing with something by saying just Trust God. Although trusting God is ...read more

    Character Reaps Fruit - The Year Of The Lord’s Favour

    Contributed by Graham Kettle on Feb 26, 2024
     | 732 views

    We are called to be disciples who carry out Jesus’ great commission. The Bible is essential to build ourselves up to be active and effective believers. However, it’s important, with that knowledge, for Christians to look at the fruit Godly character needs to produce in our lives.

    CHARACTER REAPS FRUIT - THE YEAR OF THE LORD’S FAVOUR We are called to be disciples who are to carry out the great commission that Jesus gave to His church.

    Do We Have A Vision Of Goodness?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Feb 4, 2023
     | 809 views

    Are we focused just on what and who is inside our church doors? Or are we looking, searching and sharing what we have with others so that they may come in?

    In this context, vision alludes to the disclosure (prophesy) that the prophets would obtain from God. Where there is obliviousness of God, sin and crime go out of control. The public moral compass of society relies upon the knowing God’s directions, yet it likewise relies upon individuals keeping ...read more

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jan 31, 2026
     | 201 views

    Paul entreats Euodia and entreats Syntyche to agree in the Lord. We look at just two verses but find in them a great example of how to deal with disagreements at church.

    INTRODUCTION Some years ago, a minister named Chuck Thomas was invited to preach at a church in Oklahoma. This is the story I read. Thomas noticed that the church was split down the middle, with each side having its own communion table and elders who prayed and served their respective halves of the ...read more

    The difference between words and action. Time for true repentance, and amendment of life.

    A SIMPLE PARABLE. Matthew 21:28-32. Now it was Jesus’ turn to pose a question, based on a simple parable. We must adjust our teaching method to suit the audience we have. “But what do you think?” asked Jesus (MATTHEW 21:28). The picture was familiar: a man with two sons and a vineyard (MATTHEW ...read more

    Can you be at the right place at the right time where God is moving, and miss receiving from God? We answer that question in this sermon.

    John 5:1-4  After this there was a feast of the Jews; and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
