    Jesus showed us the greatest gift of love when he died on the cross for us.

    The Ultimate Valentine's Gift Text: Rom. 5:1-11 Introduction 1. Illustration: If yesterday is like Valentine's Days of the past, over $1 billion was spent on chocolate, $1 billion on cards, and 218 million roses were sold in the pursuit of or in an attempt to demonstrate love.

    Marriage is the foundation from which a family is created. Children are born, and grow up in the gentle care and training provided by both mother and father.

    Introduction Marriage is the foundation from which a family is created. Children are born, and grow up in the gentle care and training provided by both mother and father.

    This message is a message on creating stronger marriages.

    “Houston, we have a problem!” April 13th, 1970, and the Odyssey’s Commander Jim Lovell uttered words that would go down in History. That wasn’t how Lovell thought he’d be remembered, he thought that he would go down in history as the fifth man to walk on the moon, but a faulty oxygen tank would ...read more

    God will complete His work in us as we partner with Him in His work.

    God Finishes What He Starts Philippians 1:1-6 Rev. Brian Bill January 4-5, 2025 This past week, ABC News ran a post with the same headline twice within five days, using a different image of an empty church each time: “Churches Fight to Stay Open as Attendance Dwindles.” It’s as if the editors ...read more

    Forgive? Who Me?

    We desire, and expect God’s forgiveness when we ask. But it is so hard to offer that forgiveness to others when they sin against us.

    Forgive? Who Me? Matthew 18:21-35 I remember this story about a famous person in American history, and for the life of me, I can’t remember who it was. Anyway, this person was asked one Sunday afternoon about the worship service he attended that morning. “What did the preacher preach about?” ...read more

    Sometimes we can do all the right things as Christians and still be at the end of our rope. In this sermon I will encourage both believers and unbelievers to seek rest in Christ.

    “Rest For The Weary” Matthew 11:28 INTRODUCTION: Open in Prayer ILLUSTRATION: Think back with me if you will to a time when you were about 6 yrs. Old. Can you remember playing all day, not a worry in the world? Can you remember the feeling of your pillow at the end of the day? You just had a ...read more

    An exposition of 2 Thessalonians 2:1-12 with particular focus on the characteristics of the man of lawlessness

    When is Jesus coming back? 2 Thessalonians 2:1-12 In 2000 a movie came out called “Left Behind”. This movie was based upon Tim LaHaye’s very popular, fictional series entitled “Left Behind”. For those of you that don’t know, Tim LaHaye writes fictional stories about the end times and the return ...read more

    How To Handle Your Guilt Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 22, 2019
     | 3,559 views

    Many today want to put aside any mention of shame as inappropriate. Paul, though, speaks of godly sorrow and worldly sorrow. What's the distinction and how can sorrow be a good thing?

    SMILEY RELIGION: “God wants me to be happy.” - 2 Corinthians 7:8. - Today so many presume that God’s job is to make them happy. The only way they think about God is that He is there to answer our prayers and bring good things into our lives. - Biblical ideas like carrying your cross, losing ...read more

    A Company's Obligation Series

    A company has more social obligation than to make a profit.

    January 18, 2010 Caritas in Veritate "Has the LORD as great delight in burnt offerings and sacrifices, as in obeying the voice of the LORD? Behold, to obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams. 23 For rebellion is as the sin of divination, and stubbornness is as iniquity ...read more

     | 172 views

    Trusting Jesus’ word brings healing and hope; faith in His authority, not our worthiness or understanding, invites His miraculous power into our lives.

    Friends, perhaps you walked in today with a knot in your stomach and a prayer under your breath. Maybe the doctor’s words still echo. Maybe the bill is bigger than your paycheck. Maybe the bedroom is quiet and the tears come louder at night. What if the miracle you need is as close as a word from ...read more

    Life Is Not Fair Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 29, 2003
    based on 124 ratings
     | 14,769 views

    Life seems unfair to the disappointed, the cheated, the cynical. It was unfair to compel Simon to carry the cross -- injustice piled on. But God uses injustice to stir His people to action, to help us get beyond mere survival, to give us to one another.

    Life is not fair. It just isn’t. The playwright MacLeish has his character “J.B.” scream out something we are all afraid to say, but it might be true: “If God is God, He is not good; if God is good, He is not God.” What an awesome thing to think, let alone speak! “If God is God, He is not ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 28,933 views

    Did you realize that God has a prescription for dealing with guilt and shame. And that this prescription works for both Christians and non-Christians. What could even non-Christians possibly do to resolve their guilt in sin?

    OPEN: A little boy had been given a slingshot for his birthday. He loved it and practiced every day aiming at different objects. During the summer he and his sister would spend a lot of time at their grandmother’s house and, one day he was out in her backyard he spied his grandma’s pet ...read more

    And Your Joy Will Be Complete

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Sep 9, 2013
     | 13,272 views

    In today’s passage we see Jesus encouraging his disciples by telling them that their grief will turn to joy. Not only would they have joy, but they would have complete joy. In this passage I see seven reasons why our joy is complete.

    “AND YOUR JOY WILL BE COMPLETE” John 16:16-33 INTRODUCTION: In the previous verses, Jesus is explaining to his disciples that he’s going to be leaving them but it is actually a good thing because then the Holy spirit would come. In today’s passage we see Jesus encouraging ...read more
