Face Off Series

Contributed by Jefferson Williams on Jul 16, 2020

The Right To Question God Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 12, 2021

It is normal and natural to be angry when we suffer evil, and often we will be angry at God for not preventing it. This is valid and God gives us the right to question Him.

The right to question God is a right that God Himself has given to His children. He inspired men of God to write about their own questioning of God’s ways of dealing with the evils of life and all of its suffering and injustice. None is more bold than the prophet Habakkuk. He begins his book ...read more

Call Me Maybe

Contributed by Charles Mims on Oct 7, 2012

God's Mri (Message Of Reconciliation & Imitation) Series

Contributed by Perry Greene on Oct 18, 2011

God invites us to follow him. He does not command us to do what he has not done. He sets himself as the example for our actions.

THE GODS we worship write their names on our faces, be sure of that. And a man will worship something —have no doubt about that, either. He may think that his tribute is paid in secret in the dark recesses of his heart—but it will out. That which dominates will determine his life and ...read more

Let God Be First

Contributed by Greg Carr on Aug 29, 2013

Let God be First Instead of Pushing Him Out of the Picture is a pretty bold statement. It implies that people are actually doing that, pushing God out of their lives.

And open our heart so we may receive all that You want me to receive. AMEN Let God be First Instead of Pushing Him Out of the Picture is a pretty ...read more

Jesus Enters Jerusalem Series

Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Sep 11, 2014

Jesus' entry into Jerusalem brings two things to light: 1) The crowds expected Him to act immediately on their behalf, and, 2) His actions will always be for and to honor His Father, first!

Jesus Enters Jerusalem Mark 11:1-17 - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” - Jesus’ teachings, while difficult for some to deal with, are always timely -- God always allows us to hear from Him at just the right time - Read Mark 11:1-11 ∆ Point 1 ...read more

Can I Really Believe Jesus Is Who He Says He Is? Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021

Had your brother said, “I’m God. I’m the Lord. And I’m here to die for the sins of the world,” you wouldn’t readily believe Him either. But after Jesus rose from the grave, we see Jesus’ mother, Mary, worshipping Him. We also see his own brothers, James and Jude, worshipping as well.

Jesus’ message was designed for religious outsiders. All throughout today’s message, I’m going to be talking about the gospel. The gospel is Jesus. The gospel is the message of Jesus. If you’re regularly a part of our church family, I’ve moved from the end of Luke 5, last week, to Luke 8, this ...read more

Paul The Church Planter

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Mar 28, 2023

The Apostle Paul is probably the greatest church planter in the history of the church. What can we learn from him, and how should we implement it into our modern times?

It is estimated that the Apostle Paul traveled a total of 17,285 miles! It is the equivalent of going from Jerusalem to San Francisco and then back to New York City. During his three missionary journeys alone, Paul covered some 8,000 miles by land and sea. Paul was a preacher. His passion was to ...read more
