  • The Power Of Forgivness Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 3, 2021
     | 2,984 views

    One of the things I love about this prayer is that it doesn’t pretend there aren’t real problems around us. It confronts the real needs in the world – pain and hunger. The Lord’s Prayer is designed to change our priorities and to reverse our thinking.

    This is the fourth message for us to look at the Lord’s Prayer. And it’s the richest single source in the entire Bible of information on how to pray. One story stands out about the importance of the Lord’s Prayer in the life of a Christian is from a gentleman who attends at NRH, Mike O’Neil. Mike ...read more

  • The Power Of Forgivness Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,416 views

    If you are a genuine Christian, you will be both willing and able to forgive others. According to Jesus, when you say, “I cannot or will not forgive,” you’re essentially saying, “I am thinking about going to hell.”

    We are in the last installment of a sermon series entitled Digging Deeper. Our goal is to answer this question: WHAT makes Christianity more “sticky” in some? What is the PROOF that determines if a person truly follows Christ? Or, What makes a Christian a Christian? We lose a lot of items in ...read more

  • Laodicea: The Complacent Church PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 20, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 124 views

    Jesus lovingly calls us to reject complacency, pursue genuine relationship with Him, and value what truly matters over worldly success or self-sufficiency.

    There’s a kindness in the way Jesus speaks to us. He doesn’t holler from across the street; He knocks at the front door. He doesn’t shove His way into our living rooms; He stands and waits, like the Friend you can trust with the tender truth. You can almost hear the hinge creak as you reach for the ...read more

     | 157 views

    God sees our weariness, meets us in our weakness, and renews our strength as we trust and wait on Him, never forgotten or alone.

    Friend, if you’ve ever stared at the ceiling at 2 a.m. and whispered, “Lord, did You see that? Do You know how tired I am?”—you are in good company today. If your heart feels heavy, your hands feel weak, and your hope feels thin, you are exactly where Isaiah 40 meets you. This passage is a warm ...read more

  • The Shepherd And You: Life In The Valley PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 27, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 137 views

    God’s presence with us in life’s darkest valleys brings comfort, courage, and guidance, assuring us we are never alone, no matter the circumstance.

    Some valleys look like hospital rooms with the blinds half-open and the clock moving too slowly. Some valleys sound like the phone call no one wants or the silence after the door shuts. Some valleys feel like midnight at noon—shadows stretching across the heart, courage feeling thin, hope feeling ...read more

    What does Jesus have to say about anger?

    INTRODUCTION  After spending 3-1/2 hours enduring the long lines, surly clerks and insane regulations at the Department of Motor Vehicles, I stopped at a toy store to pick up a gift for my son. I brought my selection - a baseball bat - to the cash register. "Cash or charge?" the clerk ...read more

  • Down The Jericho Road Again Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 17, 2003
    based on 111 ratings
     | 13,904 views

    Sermon for Martin Luther King Day: we must go "down the road" of compassion, understanding that human hurts are both physical and spiritual, that we must see hurting people as our neighbors, and that we must devote substantial resources to caring for them

    There’s something we say every time we find ourselves repeating an unpleasant experience. Whenever you see yourself about to get into the same trouble you’ve already been in, you say, “I don’t want to go down that road again.” For example: Some fellow comes to your door and says, “We’ve been ...read more

  • Swept Clean And Garnished

    based on 17 ratings
     | 12,310 views

    If we want next year to be the year that we have a closer relationship with Jesus then we need to create some positive power in our hearts.

    SWEPT CLEAN AND GARNISHED By Pastor Jim May For most of us this will be the last time we will come together in the House of God to worship and hear His Word before the New Year begins. I thought that this might just be the best time to stop and reflect upon the past year to examine where we are ...read more

  • Head-On Collision Series

    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Oct 26, 2009
     | 4,542 views

    Immediately after Abram gets "back to basics," a controversy develops. Did you know that "blessing" can lead to dissension? Did you know that walking in faith almost inevitably leads to opposition?

    The Head-On Collision Text: Genesis 13:1-18 When a corporation has some bad financial reverses, you are likely to read a press release that says something about getting back to the company’s core business. When a sports team gets outplayed, the coach’s press conference will usually have a statement ...read more

  • From Insulation To Intimacy Series

    Contributed by Tim Smith on Mar 17, 2011
     | 4,458 views

    This message talks about the call of God in your life to an intimate relationship with Him. The fact is that most Christians never get to that point in their relationships, let alone with God. We insulate ourselves, fearful of becoming too vulnerable and

    From Insulation to Intimacy Genesis 12: 1-9 David Needham in his book, “Close to His” tells the story of a missionary in China who found it necessary to be gone from his family for an extended period of time. Aware that his leaving would not be understood by his youngest daughter, he ...read more

    Jesus is coming again. You can’t avoid standing before Him in judgment. Well if Jesus were to return today, and if it was your time to give an account to the Lord, what would be the outcome? Would you hear commendation or rebuke?

    Opening illustration: Several years ago, Donald Trump said this in an interview: "I'll be 36 next year and I've done everything I can do. Sometimes I think it was a mistake to have raced through it all so fast. What's the next level up? The grass isn't always greener … I work, and I don't ...read more

  • Gonna Need A Bigger Cup

    Contributed by G W Bill Elliott Jr on Nov 30, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,609 views

    Typically, we stop pouring fluid as the container is filling to the rim. Too often, we tend to ease-up on God's calling on our lives because we sense we are filling up. He wants us to go get a bigger cup, through!

    No, this is not a story about the whole ‘glass half full’, or ‘glass half empty’ debate. In fact, the late George Carlin once observed, “Maybe the glass is just twice as big as it needs to be!“… he then proceeded on a tirade of how we overthink, over-analyze, and certainly over-debate about such ...read more

    Life is full of victories. Sometimes God loves us nearly to death. You don't have to win every fight to be victorious sometimes you just have to survive. The battles you do win are from God.

    “When God Lets You Win” “The Lord answered me with wide-open spaces.” Psalms 118:5 CEB Intro: A priest decides to paint his church one day. He goes out and buys some paint, comes back to the church, and then he realizes that he did not buy enough paint to do the job. ...read more
