The Verdict: No One Is Righteous Series

Contributed by David Owens on May 28, 2019

This sermon is the completion of Paul's three chapter presentation of the universal sinfulness and helplessness of all people. Before Paul can share the good news of the gospel, he must first we understand and accept the bad news of our condition.

A. One day two men were sitting next to each other on an airplane, and one of them remarked, “Somebody around here’s deodorant isn’t working!” 1. The other man said, “Well, it’s not me, I’m not wearing any deodorant!” B. One of the realities in life is that some folks are oblivious to their own ...read more

Jesus Christ & The Media Narrative: The Tactics Of The Media In Subverting Christianity

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Mar 23, 2021

Sermon # 6 - The Secret Schemes Of The Enemy Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 15, 2024

Satan’s schemes are many and we as God’s children should be aware of them. Also, we need the right people who will guide and counsel us to walk in the right path and avoid the traps that the enemy sets for us.

We read in Numbers 22:6, Come now, curse this people for me, since they are too mighty for me. Perhaps I shall be able to defeat them and drive them from the land, for I know that he whom you bless is blessed, and he whom you curse is cursed."

Come Together, Right Now

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 5, 2025

Christ unites a divided people into one redeemed family, tearing down walls of pride and fear until His peace fills every heart.

INTRODUCTION The Beatles once sang, “Come together, right now…” It was a cry for unity in a world already spinning apart—an anthem of longing to belong, to find common ground again. Yet half a century later, that echo still rings hollow. We’re more connected than ever, but somehow more divided ...read more

Seals And Trumpets And Bowls, Oh My! (Revelation 6-16) Series

Contributed by James Jackson on Nov 8, 2025

Revelation 6–16 can feel like the scariest part of the journey—war, famine, plagues, and wrath. But behind every seal, trumpet, and bowl stands a merciful God whose justice is never chaotic, always redemptive. When God wins, we win—and the story that began with mercy ends with mercy.

Good morning! Please open your Bibles to Revelation 6. Some of you may find this hard to believe, but back in the olden days—the 1970s—there was no streaming, no DVDs, and definitely no pause button. VCRs existed, but they cost over a thousand dollars, so nobody you knew actually had one. If ...read more

Heaven Opens The Books

Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 14, 2025

When heaven opens the books, God’s justice, mercy, and love stand revealed—and the Lamb alone secures our place in eternity.

There are moments in Scripture when the veil between heaven and earth grows thin—moments when we see something of God that we rarely think about. One of those moments is in the book of Daniel. He writes: “The court was seated, and the books were opened.” — Daniel 7:10 Just a simple line. But ...read more

Sardis: When Faithfulness Is Assumed Series

Contributed by David Dunn on Feb 2, 2026

Sardis warns that faith can survive in name and form while losing responsiveness, calling believers to awaken and listen again.

By the time we arrive at Sardis, something subtle has happened to us. Ephesus taught us that love can cool without rebellion. Smyrna taught us that faithfulness can be costly without being fragile. Pergamum taught us that proximity to power can quietly rearrange loyalty. Thyatira taught us that ...read more

I invite you to turn in your Bibles to Matthew 18. Forgive and forget. Let bygones be bygones. That’s all water under the bridge. Time heals all wounds (or maybe it’s “time wounds all heels.” I can never remember which). Have you ever had someone say one of those things to you? Or how about ...read more

Fasting For A Spiritual Breakthrough

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Nov 25, 2025

Fasting is a biblical way to quiet our hearts, humble our souls, and make room to hear God’s voice—bringing revelation, deliverance, protection, repentance, and spiritual strength to those who hunger and thirst for Him.

Fasting for a Breakthrough “As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, my God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God.
