    One Door And Only One Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 15, 2020
    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,746 views

    What does it mean for Jesus to be "the door?" And why should that matter to us?

    There’s a cute little children’s song about Jesus that goes this way: “One Door, and only one, and yet its sides are two, inside and outside, on which side are you? One Door, and only one, and yet its sides are two, I want the inside - on which side are you? “One Lord, and only one and yet the ...read more

    The Gift That Keeps On Giving Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 4, 2015
    based on 17 ratings
     | 20,838 views

    The gift of "giving" is perhaps closest to God's heart. What is it about this gift that makes it so special, and how can we know if we have this particular gift?

    OPEN: One preacher told of the time he found himself in a situation where he truly needed to announce publicly what he was giving to a special church offering. “This wasn’t for the purpose of boastfulness, for I was only giving $25, although, at that time, that was significant to me. ...read more

     | 19,802 views

    I can worship God anywhere... but Psalm 100 talks about "going someplace" to worship. Where should I "go" to worship, and how and why should I worship?

    I read the story about a couple named Mary and Jim and their dog 'Lucky.' Lucky was an unusual dog. Whenever company come for a weekend visit Mary and Jim had to warn their friends to not leave their luggage open because Lucky would help himself to whatever struck his fancy. Inevitably, ...read more

    "Brother In Trouble, Needs A Real Friend On The Double”

    based on 7 ratings
     | 8,557 views

    All of us are charged to have loving concern for our brethren. To serve as their keeper is a great duty, which is strictly required of us, but it is generally neglected by us. Those who are unconcerned in the affairs of their brethren, and take no care, w

    “Brother in Trouble, Needs a Real Friend on the Double” The Language of Cain - “Am I My Brother’s Keeper” Text: Luke 10:25-37 Introduction: Genesis 4, we have account of the first recorded trial.

     | 20,222 views

    God is merciful and calls us to be as well. But what does mercy look like and how can we know when we've gotten it right?

    OPEN: I once read the true story of a preacher was organizing an evangelistic outreach using small acts of kindness to demonstrate Christ's love.

    The Power Of Touch Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 3, 2013
    based on 29 ratings
     | 107,700 views

    Why touch a leper? They were "untouchable", declared unclean, outcasts to all. But Jesus touched this man. Why? And what can we learn from what He did that day?

    We’re going to begin today’s sermon with a trivia question: Question: What is the largest organ of your body? (Answer: the skin) If you an average adult, your skin covers about 21 square feet of your body. It will weigh 9 pounds and contain more than 11 miles of blood vessels. If you ...read more

    The Harvest Is Plentiful

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 12, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,198 views

    Jesus modeled how we should be sensitive to the needs of others, be moved with compassion, and see people as ready for the harvest. Rather than praying for others to do the job, we should be engaged too.

    Allow me to open our message with an illustration. In his book entitled The Kingdom Focused Church, Gene Mims shares the following account: “After Marco Polo returned from the magnificent imperial court of Kublai Khan in 1926, he wrote that the mighty Khan asked him to request that the Pope send ...read more

    Electing A Savior Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 24, 2012
    based on 95 ratings
     | 30,067 views

    Jesus wasn’t "attractive" enough to be elected president, let alone Savior. But why wasn’t Jesus desirable to the people of His day? What message did He preach that the masses reject Him?

    OPEN: How many of you have noticed that there’s a Presidential election coming up? (This met with a certain amount of laughter). Just a few weeks ago, the Republican Party - and then the Democratic Party - had their political conventions where they officially nominated their candidate. There was ...read more

    The Compassion & Provision Of Jesus Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Mar 19, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,992 views

    Sometimes in our zeal of serving God we begin to take the reigns and can actually not really trust and rely on Jesus for the very work He has called us to.

    Some Christians find themselves in a never ending quest to earn the right to deserve their relationship with God. We feel so bad about ourselves and feel that God had to do so much to save us that we need to spend our lives trying really hard to please Him so He’ll feel better about what ...read more

    Preaching Your Sermon - True Ministers Regurgitate, Or Do They – Should They Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 19, 2024
     | 578 views

    Here, we are sharing some thoughts about church ministry especially the tendency to preach on what someone else has done because one has not bothered to study for oneself. Every situation is specific to its own church but here are general principles.

    PREACHING YOUR SERMON - TRUE MINISTERS REGURGITATE, OR DO THEY – SHOULD THEY? I keep some finches and just recently one pair had babies. It is interesting the way the Lord has arranged for the babies to be fed. I think most people have noticed the method used by birds as the young are fed. ...read more

    The Book Of Galatians – Chapter 5:12-15 - Message 19 – Freedom Brings Extra Responsibility – How To Love One Another, And Christian Cannibalism Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 21, 2024
     | 734 views

    Salvation brings freedom, but is that freedom a licence to sin? Paul uses strong language against the false teachers. We look at serving one another in love and what that means, and finish with considering “Christian cannibalism”.

    THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 5:12-15 - MESSAGE 19 – FREEDOM BRINGS EXTRA RESPONSIBILITY – HOW TO LOVE ONE ANOTHER, AND CHRISTIAN CANNIBALISM Galatians is a powerful book. Perhaps in this letter Paul’s emotions and spirit are turned over more than in any other letter as he combats the false ...read more
