    Imagine a major league baseball player refusing to get into the batters box because he doesn't get a hit every time up. Yet that's how many of us approach prayer. We let a few strikeouts keep us from swinging for the fences!

    Pentecost sums up the gospel with simplicity and audacity: Jesus Christ offers salvation to all, and the church exists to proclaim it.

    “United for a Purpose” Acts 2:1-21 Pentecost. What is Pentecost? I’ve had many long-time church members over the years who weren’t familiar with what this day is about, and it is an incredibly significant day in the life of the church. It ranks up there close to Christmas and ...read more

    The future is in God's hands. God is watching over His elect. We are to stay vigilant and faithful to God.

    Matt 24:15-28 - The God Who Holds the Future One common fear we have is the fear of the future. We worry about what is to come. • We fear because we do not know what can happen and we are not in control. • The things we worry about may not even happen but the thought of it can rob us of joy and ...read more

     | 14,579 views

    Church, if we’re failing today, is it because we’re not waiting on God’s power? If you need the power of God in your life, Jesus has a word for you.

    “You Cannot Do God’s Work Without God’s power.” Text: “Then he said to me, ‘This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit, says the Lord of hosts’” (Zech. 4:6 RSV).

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 4, 2022
     | 1,597 views

    Fellowship is built on fact and testimony, and has the most solid basis. It is built on the eternal life of God; on God’s forgiveness of sin through the satisfaction that the righteousness of God was satisfied at Calvary; and on the promises of God, for His promises can not be broken.

    MESSAGE - 1 JOHN VERSES 2-4: ETERNAL LIFE AND FELLOWSHIP WITH JOY COMPLETE On the previous occasion when we looked at the opening verse of this glorious first letter of John, we explored many thoughts that are contained in that marvellous verse.

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 7, 2022
     | 1,682 views

    There is the absolute necessity that the life must be free from known sin, that cankerous disease that creeps in and makes God’s love “less abiding” because our knowledge and spirits are clouded, and we are not abiding in His love.
