    based on 3 ratings
     | 80 views

    The sermon urges believers to embody Christ’s love through everyday acts of kindness, service, and hospitality, making faith tangible in ordinary life.

    Some of the most life-changing sermons are preached without pulpits. A handwritten note in a mailbox. A casserole on a front porch. A hand on a shoulder in a waiting room. A smile across a sanctuary. You have seen these sermons. Many of you have preached them. And if you listen closely, you can ...read more

     | 105 views

    True worship begins with surrender at God’s altar, where we lay down our lives and receive grace through Christ’s ultimate sacrifice.

    Some of us walked in today with a smile that hides the tired places of the soul. Some of us carried questions that feel too heavy to say out loud. And some of us came hungry for hope, like parched ground waiting for rain. Friend, you are seen. You are welcome. You are loved. In this moment, with ...read more

     | 133 views

    True acceptance with God comes not from self-righteousness or performance, but from humble, honest confession and receiving His mercy through Jesus Christ.

    Some of us walked in today with weary hearts and distracted minds. The week has been loud. Deadlines and dishes, headlines and heartaches—so many voices bidding for your attention. But in the quiet place where you talk to God, what matters most? How do you come to Him? With polished phrases and ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 90 views

    True stability and lasting fruit come not from striving, but from letting Christ dwell deeply within us, shaping our hearts and lives with His presence.

    Welcome, friends. If life this week felt like a tug-of-war—pulled by pressure, pushed by problems—take a breath. You’re in good company, and you’re in a good place. The God who made you also means to steady you. He has a way of slipping peace into a restless heart and strength into weary bones. ...read more

    Trusting God at life’s uncertain crossings requires both faith and obedience, as He calls us to step forward and follow Him into the unknown.

    Have you ever stood at the edge of something new—heart thumping, hands trembling—wondering how you’ll make it across? Maybe it’s a decision you can’t delay, a diagnosis you didn’t ask for, a door you’re afraid to open, or a river of unknowns that seems swollen and wild. You can hear it rush; you ...read more

     | 55 views

    True freedom is found in honoring God with our bodies, embracing His loving authority, and living as temples of the Holy Spirit.

    Friends, take a deep breath of grace today. You are seen. You are loved. You are wanted by the God who fashioned you—mind, heart, and body. He cares about all of you, and He cares right now. For some of us, the word body brings a flurry of feelings—shame from the past, confusion from the present, ...read more

    God’s resurrection power and Christ’s reign are for us now, assuring us of hope, worth, and strength as His beloved church in every circumstance.

    “‘The best of all is, God is with us.’” — John Wesley Friends, welcome. If you arrived today with a weary heart, a worried mind, or a wandering list of what-ifs, you’re in good company. The church in Ephesus knew the press of pressures and the pull of distractions. And yet, through Paul’s pen, the ...read more

    God lovingly exchanges our sorrow and heaviness for joy and praise, transforming our brokenness into strength through His nearness and kindness in prayer.

    If your week has felt heavy, if your heart has carried more sighs than songs, you are in the right place. You didn’t stumble in here by accident. The God who sees you also speaks to you, and His voice carries comfort that steadies the soul. He has a word for the weary and a lift for the lowly. He ...read more

    8 of 8. The apostle Paul related that the wisdom of the Cross-work of Christ, was seen as foolishness by those who were perishing. The wisdom of the Cross can be misinterpreted. But How can wisdom be properly interpreted? Foolish Wisdom is interpreted thru...

    The very popular television program, “Let’s Make A Deal” debuted in December 1963. The program was all about MAKING A DEAL!

    I guess all of us have watched this program and enjoyed it, as some of the guests of the show made good deals and some made bad deals. While none of us have appeared on this show and played “Let’s Make A Deal,” the fact is, Satan wants to play this game with us every day. For example, the ...read more

    Three days after Red Sea deliverance, Israel found bitter water at Marah. Their songs of praise became complaints of doubt. God revealed Himself as Jehovah Rapha, the LORD who heals.

    I AM Your Healer - JEHOVAH RAPHA Main Text: Exodus 15:26 Supporting Texts: Psalm 103:3, Jeremiah 30:17 INTRODUCTION Picture the scene. The Israelites stand on the far shore of the Red Sea.

     | 96 views

    Trusting God’s timing in every season, we learn to wait with faith, knowing He is present and working even when we cannot see it.

    Some of us came in today with calendars covered in scribbles and hearts heavy with questions. The clock keeps ticking, but the answer seems late. A prayer hangs in the air. A door stays shut. A dream feels shelved. We know God is good, we sing that God is faithful, yet our watches rarely match His ...read more

    God uses our small offerings, given in faith and compassion, to meet the needs of others and multiply blessings beyond what we imagine.

    Some of us walked in today with a smile that took a lot of effort. Bills stare back, bodies ache, and a stack of needs feels taller than our energy. Maybe you’re a parent counting pennies at the grocery store, a grandparent worrying over a prodigal, or a student standing at the edge of a new season ...read more
