    Getting offended is a common Christian experience and shouldn't cause Christians to leave churches, but it frequently does! This examines wrong and right responses to offense and outlines why we should forgive, without strings, the offenders.

    SATAN’S SECRET WEAPON: OFFENSES Matt. 17:27 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: 1. There was a Christian lady who did a lot of flying for her business, but flying made her nervous so she always took her Bible along with her to read and it helped relax her. 2.

    This is the day where we set aside time in our busy schedules to give thanks to God. Now, there is nothing wrong with that but the word of God tells us that this should be our attitude daily, weekly, monthly and yearly.

    Thinking about our Attitude On Thanksgiving. Psalms 100:1-5. The first North American Thanksgiving is traced back to 1578 when the English navigator Martin Frobisher held a formal ceremony in what is now called Newfoundland. We don’t believe this is when the kissing-of-the-cod tradition ...read more

    Are You Choking?

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 12, 2013
     | 8,170 views

    Too often, Christians can become so busy in their lives that they choke the word of God out of it. Too many of us are the thorny soil at times. This sermon helps us remember what our priorities should be.

    Often as Christians, we need to take a step back from our busy lives to examine where we are as Christians. We need to ask ourselves many questions: Have I been growing? Is that growth visible to others? Am I more holy this month or year than I was last year? These are all important questions we ...read more

    The Rumor Weed

     | 3,354 views

    Rumors and gossip are things we should avoid at all cost, because the information we spread can be destructive to those individuals when shared with others. Our God is not in the business of tearing down lives, but restoring them.

    I’ve entitled our message for this morning “The Rumor Weed,” based on a Veggie Tale’s song. On one episode of Veggie Tales, Junior Asparagus and Laura Carrot learned just how easily rumors can get started when they accidentally launched a whopper of a tale about Larry-Boy’s butler, Alfred, being a ...read more

     | 3,301 views

    This sermon is an exposition of "The Lord's Prayer." This prayer is sometimes called “The Model Prayer,” and it is an outline for prayer that all of us, as disciples of Jesus, should seek to follow when coming before the Lord with our petitions.

    In our message this morning, we are going to look at what is called “The Lord’s Prayer.” And I want to get started by sharing how the gospel writer Luke prefaces this prayer. We read in Luke 11:1-2, “Now it came to pass, as [Jesus] was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His ...read more

    Last week we looked at Jesus' resurrection appearance to Mary. She went and told the Apostles but they didn't believe her. They were unwilling to believe that Jesus had risen from the dead unless they saw him with their own eyes. And see him they would!

     | 6,294 views

    Our Lord Jesus is said to be the Mediator between God and man, which implies that he should be approachable. He must be available to both the parties. If Jesus is the perfect mediator, he must be able to come to God, and then he must approach man.

    What is it that hinders us from doing the good that we should be doing? We are often like the Priest and the Levite, sometimes we just miss the point of our faith. Sometimes Christianity becomes just a religion to us and not a lifestyle
