    based on 3 ratings
     | 124 views

    God invites us to courageously step into His promises, trusting His faithfulness and love, rather than hesitating in fear or doubt.

    Have you ever stood on a threshold with your hand on the knob, heart racing, knowing there’s goodness inside but still hesitating to step in? Maybe it’s a fresh calling, a new season, a second chance. Maybe it’s peace after a long storm, or hope after a hard night. God brings us to thresholds. He ...read more

     | 147 views

    Trusting God with our decisions brings peace and guidance; through prayer and seeking His wisdom, He shapes our lives and directs our paths.

    Most of us know the look of a crowded calendar and a crowded heart. The inbox pings, the bills stack, the decisions loom. We stand at the crossroads and try to make sense of the map, squinting at arrows and options. Have you felt that pull—wanting to do the right thing, yet unsure which door to ...read more

    The sermon calls us to seek God’s kingdom first, embrace repentance, and live out our faith together, trusting God to provide and guide us.

    If you came in today with a to-do list longer than a week and a heart full of what-ifs, you’re in the right place. The King is kind, and His words are clear. He speaks to grocery-getters and diaper-changers, to students and seniors, to the weary and the wide-awake. He leans close and whispers a ...read more

    Scripture It can never be said that Adele Gaboury’s neighbors were less than responsible. When her front lawn grew hip-high, they had a local boy mow it down. When her pipes froze and burst, they turned the water off. When the mail spilled out the front door, they called the police. The only thing ...read more

    Getting Into The Weeds Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 18, 2010
     | 4,536 views

    Why does evil exist in the world and what are we to do about it? Jesus tells a good story and has some sober advice as we look at ourselves - are we weeds or wheat?

    Today we are going to talk about three parables that give us an idea of the effect of the gospel in the world. Last time we looked at the parable of the sower, which describes how the individual is or is not open to the gospel. Now we turn outward to look at how the gospel spreads. First century ...read more

    Serve Others, Serve Christ PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 8, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 165 views

    True greatness is found in serving others with everyday acts of kindness, recognizing and loving Jesus in the overlooked and ordinary people around us.

    Some of the most breathtaking moments with Jesus arrive in ordinary clothes. A paper cup of water handed to a weary worker. A brown-bag sandwich shared on a bench. A text sent at midnight that says, “I’m here.” He has a way of walking into our Mondays and Market Streets, our waiting rooms and ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 152 views

    The sermon emphasizes the vital role of gathering as a church community to encourage, support, and strengthen one another in love and faith as we follow Christ.

    There’s a sacred sweetness in the sound of gathered voices. A familiar face across the aisle. A hug that lingers just a moment longer than usual. Coffee cups, creaky pews, and kind words. It all whispers a truth our souls know well: we are meant to be together. Life presses in with long weeks and ...read more

    God meets us in our weakness, strengthening our inner selves through prayer and His Spirit, offering hope, comfort, and power for every circumstance.

    Friends, if your week has felt like a whirlwind—emails stacking, dishes piling, deadlines looming—take a breath. Pull your chair up close to the kindness of God. This is a moment for your heart to be heard and your hope to be helped. Have you ever reached for strength like you reach for your keys, ...read more

    God renews our strength when we are weary; waiting on Him in prayer brings hope, endurance, and the power to rise above life’s burdens.

    If your soul has been sighing lately, you’re in good company. The headlines rumble, the calendar’s crowded, the phone keeps pinging, and somewhere between Monday morning and midnight worries, strength leaks and hope limps. You’ve prayed for healing and still hurt. You’ve asked for clarity and still ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 111 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

    Trusting God with our money reveals our true priorities; faithful stewardship transforms wealth into eternal impact and frees us from serving money as a master.

    Friends, welcome. Pull up a chair. In a world where prices climb and schedules squeeze, our hearts can feel thin. We carry questions into church tucked beneath our smiles. Will the paycheck stretch? Will the college fund be enough? Will retirement come with peace or pressure? Money talks, doesn’t ...read more

    When I Get Big, I Want to Be Little Mark 9:30-37 Children are born dreamers. You can watch them act out their dreams when they play and pretend.
