    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Oct 2, 2024
     | 712 views

    How often do we, as Christians, take time to listen to the voice of God? Does He have to talk to us with a raised voice or a quiet one?

    Before we attempt to provide an answer to our question, let us take a moment, look at the Scripture, and gather a history of the situation. In preceding chapter, Elijah has rebuked the evil king Ahab and has had a contest with the evil prophets, wins the contest, and has the evil prophets slain. ...read more

  • We Were Formed For Fellowship

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Mar 1, 2013
     | 5,350 views

    How did God design us? He wants us to gather together in faithful fellowship groups that lead us to the fullness of Christ. Our friendships will impact us for faith or not. We must make choices of fellowship on purpose.

    We were formed for fellowship. When God created Adam the Bible tells us that God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone, I will make a helper suitable for him.” Genesis 2:18. This was the first time that, after God created anything, he looked at it and said that it is NOT good. ...read more

    This sermon was preached to introduce our LIFE Groups to the congregation

    They were the ultimate church plant. They started with 11, grew to 120, then to 3000. Not bad, as a matter of fact very good. But how did they do it? I guess that question has to be asked by anyone who is even remotely interested in church growth. What was the secret that they had that allowed ...read more

  • From House To House

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 17, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,949 views

    Based on a New Testament understanding of a church, and based on the ministry of the early apostles, we learn that believers did not always assemble in a public place of worship. Much of the time they met in one another’s homes.

    This morning I want to address the topic of “doing church.” and I’m going to begin by asking the question, “Where are Christians supposed to assemble together for worship and fellowship?” In Acts 17:24, Paul declared, “God, who made the world and everything in it, since He is Lord of heaven and ...read more

    Two very different churches, aren’t they? Both are very busy in what they are trying to do. But one is dying. Why? What is the church supposed to be? And what is the church supposed to do?
