Sermon On The Wings Of Life

Contributed by William Meakin on Dec 20, 2024

Wings are generally defined as the modified forelimbs of a bird that bear large feathers and are used for the purpose of flying.

Jalal al-Din Mu?ammad Rumi, a 13th-century Afghanistan-born poet and scholar once remarked: “You were born with potential. You were born with goodness and trust. You were born with ideals and dreams. You were born with greatness. You were born with wings. You are not meant for crawling, so ...read more

Intro - Rev. Chapter 1 Series

Contributed by Vernon Risner on Mar 5, 2021

And intro to the book of Revelation examining Revelation chapter 1. Email me and I'd be happy to share powerpoint slides and video clips used in this sermon.

Go ahead and open your bibles to the last book – the book of Revelation. This book scares some folks. Mostly because of the imagery it paints of the End Times. Even when hearing the name of the book, REVELATION – we instantly think of the (TAB) mark of the beast, (TAB) the anti-christ and (TAB) ...read more

The Ten Commandments Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 18, 2021

When you appear before a holy God, you would no more approach Him than you would walk into shark-infested waters. When God appears in front of you and you tremble in awestruck fear, it is a wise thing to call for a mediator to stand between you and He.

Today we begin a new series entitled simply, The Ten Commandments. Today’s Scripture And God spoke all these words, saying, 2 “I am the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery. 3 “You shall have no other gods before me. 4 “You shall not make for ...read more

Standing In The Gap Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 4, 2016

The first 3 chapters of Revelation have often been seen as separate from the rest of the book. But that doesn't make any sense. Why would Jesus spend 3 chapters on local churches who were not part of the rest of the story?

OPEN: This morning I’m going to teach you a little about something that’s called “Hermeneutics”. Hermeneutics is the description of how to read and understand your Bible. When I was in Bible College I had a professor who told us that whenever the Bible had a lot to say on a ...read more

A Study Of The Book Of Revelation, 4: Things That Are, In Heaven. Series

Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Jun 14, 2015

View of Heaven from one who was actually there, unlike some of the stories we hear in our day.

2b. The things which are (in heaven) (4-5) (4:1) Come up hither. Oh the strange work that popular theologians have done with chapter 4 , verse 1. In this simple passage, John is addressed by Jesus, and told to come up to heaven for further revelations. Incredible to me is the ...read more

Doing A Slow Burn Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 12, 2003

Elihu listened to Job as long as he could, but finally erupted with the contention that Job had too little faith, was too hypocritical, did not know how to cry out to God to ask for help with his needs, and offered no witness.

32:1-10 So these three men ceased to answer Job, because he was righteous in his own eyes. Then Elihu son of Barachel the Buzite, of the family of Ram, became angry. He was angry at Job because he justified himself rather than God; he was angry also at Job’s three friends because they had found ...read more

LIFE IS A TEST (1 SAMUEL 13:5-15) There are many tests in life: death of loved ones, getting the pink slip and losing a stable job, to name the most stressful.

Sermon On Presence

Contributed by William Meakin on Jul 31, 2022

Presence is defined as the state or fact of existing, occurring or being present. It may also refer to an existence that is present, but is not seen.

Tara Brach, an American psychologist and author once remarked: “In any moment, no matter how lost we feel, we can take refuge in presence and love. We need only pause, breathe, and open to the experience of aliveness within us. In that wakeful openness, we come home to the peace and freedom of our ...read more

The Warrior & His Bride Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Mar 4, 2013

These three psalms give us a wonderful picture of salvation, the Bride of Christ, and Jesus the Warrior King who rules for truth, justice, and humility.

This is a “maskil” which can mean a contemplative song or a well-written song. Psalm 44 is another of those laments where the people are feeling that God has rejected them because He has not rescued them from trouble. They’ve searched their hearts and can find no sin, but still ...read more

The Counterfeit Kingdom

Contributed by Ken Pell on Jul 27, 2010

By comparing the first four seals of Rev. 6 to Jesus’ model prayer in Matthew 6, the world’s offer of “life” can be seen as a counterfeit to the offer made by God.
