    Nowhere To Stand

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 19, 2018
     | 7,973 views

    What is moving the ground beneath your feet today? Is it the loss of a loved one? A marriage that is less than perfect? A job that seems insecure? An illness that threatens your life? A trusted person who has let you down? Faith in God can be restored.

    Nowhere to Stand Psalm 46:1-3 – God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging. Message: There are ...read more

    Zerubbabel Series

    Although Zerubbabel's Temple was less in size than Solomon's, God affirmed a more incredible honor: "The glory of this present house will be greater than the glory of the former house," said the Lord (Haggai 2:9).

    Zerubbabel Zerubbabel: The Head of Judah The name "Zerubbabel" means born at Babel, i.e., Babylon. Zerubbabel was the grandson of King Jehoiachin of Judah (1 Chronicle 3:17) and, therefore, a descendant of David. Born in Babylon during the exile of Judeans, Zerubbabel migrated to Judah ...read more

    When we look at some less well-known people in the Bible whose names we might just pass over while reading a verse or passage of scripture, you will discover that God has also used many ordinary people in a powerful way.

    Our theme this year is Powerful People and we are going to examine together how God works in and through ordinary people in a powerful way. Some of the people from the Bible we will look at are more well known than others. The Bible is a collection of 66 books and letters, 39 in the Old ...read more

    "all Things New, A New Year Message"

    For many of us, a new year is a time for resolutions and getting rid of bad habits. Today is January the 8th…so far, so good! Someone was writing down New Year resolutions: “Gain weight, save less money, set realistic goals.”

    Norman Vincent Peal spent New Year’s Eve in Rome. A friend warned him to stay inside his hotel for his own safety, because people have a habit of throwing old, unwanted things out their windows on New Year’s Eve. He explained, “If you should be walking down the street, you’re likely to have an ...read more

    Overcoming Hidden Family Challenges SermonCentral

     | 785 views

    Household enemies are more dangerous because you are usually less cautious with them. You usually have no problem dealing with known enemies. But you lower your guards at home because you believe you are in the midst of people who love and care for you.

    Today, we will delve into the topic of household enemies and how to break their power over our lives. Household enemies can be more dangerous than known enemies because we often let our guard down around those we trust. These enemies can be found within our own families, such as a wicked spouse, a ...read more

    As a priest in the order of Melchizedek, Jesus came to offer salvation full and free.

    These past several weeks have taken us on a journey through portions of Job, Mark chapter 10, and the book of Hebrews. Through looking at the combinations of those Scripture passages, we’ve been reminded that Jesus is our Great High Priest, and that He journeys with us on the path to glory—which ...read more

    Asking For Your Inheritance

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Mar 16, 2021
     | 8,567 views

    Our greatest treasure, the inheritance that we seek, isn’t down here: not in the stuff, not in the people, not in the honours. But seek God. Desire Him. Long for the one inheritance that is incorruptible, that is undefiled, and that does not fade away.

    They say that children should never talk about their inheritance. Sure, one day Mom and Dad might leave something to the kids. But until that day, children shouldn’t worry about what they’ll receive, or daydream about how to spend it. We know what happened to the Prodigal Son, when he started ...read more

    God Moves The Nations

     | 2,390 views

    To bring about the birth of Jesus, the Almighty God moved the nations, even the greatest empire the world has ever seen.

    Think of what a small event it seemed to be! There was a man, and there was a woman. The woman was but a teenager, pregnant, and ready any day to give birth. This man and woman found themselves far from home, down in the province of Judea, in the town of Bethlehem. While they were there, they ...read more

     | 7,305 views

    There are 4 times in the Bible where God says He’ll open a window in heaven. This doesn’t sound very impressive, until you stop to think God’s windows are gigantic in scope.See how you can profit from God's windows.

    GOD HAS SOME BIG WINDOWS INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. I read about one crotchety old couple, Victor & Shirley, who’d been married for 65 years, being interviewed by the Huntsville Item. 2.
