The Unforced Rhythm Of Strength

Contributed by Paul Dayao on Aug 23, 2025

This sermon contrasts the world's frantic and exhausting path to strength with God's divine invitation to find salvation and power through the "unforced rhythm" of returning to and resting in Him.

Introduction: The Tyranny of the Urgent I want you to picture a scene. It's late at night. A student sits hunched over a desk, surrounded by textbooks and empty coffee mugs. Their eyes are gritty with exhaustion, their mind a frantic buzz of facts and figures. Fear of failure is a physical ...read more

Our Forefathers' Legacy Of Abundance

Contributed by Perry Greene on Jun 16, 2025

Abundance is not always material.

1. Some years ago, a radio station invited people to call in and tell them the first thing they had said in the morning, and the third caller would win a cash prize. One guy said, "Do I smell coffee burning?" Another one said, "Oh no, I'm late for work." The winner that ...read more

Sanctification And Sex Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 7, 2021

Christianity has glorified marriage more than any other religion, and nearly all the greatest love poetry in the world has been produced by Christians. If anybody says that sex is bad in itself, that person does not understand Christianity.

The father of Matthew Henry, the great Bible commentator, was courting a girl who was heiress to a fortune while he was a Presbyterian minister. Her father said to her, "He may be a perfect gentleman, a brilliant scholar, and an excellent preacher, but he is a stranger, and we don't know ...read more

God Of Love, God Of Justice: A Future Heaven, A Future Hell

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 26, 2021

God's works are many in the world and of particular beauty. Yet there is also the proclivity of man toward evil. God allows for free will, which opens the doors to almost any possibility. Which explains why the world is so messed up.

“There are only two kinds of people in the end: those who say to God, "Thy will be done," and those to whom God says, in the end, "Thy will be done." All that are in Hell, choose it. Without that self-choice there could be no Hell. No soul that seriously and constantly desires ...read more

Elders In The Church Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Aug 7, 2019

Along with the instruction Paul gave in his letter to Timothy, he also shared with Titus concerning the qualifications for elders, bishops, or pastors within the church. This passage was given for the benefit of the church in selecting and ordaining elders to serve in the local church.

Elders in the Church Titus 1: 5-9 After a warm greeting, Paul immediately got to the heart of the matter.

A Prayer Of Praise Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 22, 2021

Our praise and adoration cannot exalt God objectively for He is already the highest and ultimate in majesty, but it does exalt Him subjectively by placing God in His rightful place in our lives and thinking

The point of interest in this passage is not the fact that Daniel and his friends prayed. This is neither unusual nor surprising under the circumstances. Their lives were at stake unless they had a direct revelation from God. One would be shocked if they did anything else but pray. One does not ...read more

"the Scientific Brilliance Of Genesis 1:1"

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 2, 2021

When we stop to meditate on the first verse of Holy Scripture, we see not only the majesty and power of Almighty God in action, but if we look deeper, we also see the beginnings of scientific thought and the real explanation for the origin of life and the universe.

Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jun 19, 2021

Jesus calls us to be merciful as God is merciful, and in the way God acted towards the people of Nineveh, he set the bar very high. The Assyrians were among the cruellest people in history.
