    Looking For The Uppertaker 1 Cor 15:51-52 Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed — in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. ...read more

    Jesus, My Savior

    IF you take the 196 verses in the N.T. Gospels, & combine that with all the O.T. prophesies about the Messiah, you have a lot of verses. And that means that the story of Jesus’ birth is important to God & is important to us.

    Today in our passage of Scripture we’re going to see a demonstration of the power of prayer that comes w/persistence. And thru a man named Daniel, we’re going to see how we can begin to take steps that will help us pray w/persistence.

    “Praying with Persistence” Daniel 10: 1-14 May 16, 2010 Intro: There was a lady who lived way out in the country in Wales. And she went to a great deal of trouble and expense to have electricity brought to her home. However, after a couple of months, the electric company noticed ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 167 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

    Even mighty prophets face dark valleys. Today, we discover how God meets us in our caves, whispers through our storms, and transforms our deepest struggles into divine purpose.

    The Cave, The Call, The Commission Introduction In the pages of Scripture, few narratives capture the raw humanity of faith more vividly than the story of Elijah in 1 Kings 19. Here we encounter one of God's most powerful prophets not in a moment of triumph, but in the depths of despair. Just ...read more

    The sermon encourages perseverance in doing good, assuring that faithful, unseen efforts matter and will ultimately yield a harvest in God’s perfect timing.

    Some of us walked in today a little weary, a little worn, and a little wondering. You’ve been faithful in the small things—praying for prodigals, blessing neighbors, showing up for work with integrity, holding your tongue when it would be easier to snap, trusting God when the calendar feels crowded ...read more

    What Is Greatness?

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Oct 10, 2024
     | 796 views

    Jesus our God came to serve. And even to die, to give his life as a ransom for many! To die for us, to empty himself of divine power and authority and serve those in need. That is true greatness.

    I recall a meme I saw online, it had a picture of a janitorial supply cart and it said, "Called to ministry? This will be your first pulpit." Truer words were never spoken. My first five years in ministry I mopped a lot of floors, and believe me, I expect more floors in the future. ...read more

    Some do! Some don’t! Usually the number is very limited - small. If you do, and the number is even one, then you are blessed! If you stop and think about it, it doesn’t take long for you to count them. After I tell you about what I am referring, you may w

    The Hebrew word translated “plans” in Jer. 29:11 (machashabah) means “imaginations” (Prov. 6:18; Lam. 3:60-61). It could read, “I know the imaginations I have for YOU…” God has dreams of what He'd like to do for you; are you willing to step into them?

    GOD’S DREAMS FOR YOU Jer. 29:11 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: NOT FORGIVING, GOING FISHING 1. There was a little boy in the grocery store with his mother. He’d already gotten in trouble for touching things, and was forbidden to touch anything on the shelves. 2. When his Mom had her back turned, she ...read more

    Running The Race

    A message of faith. Do we hide from fear, or step out in faith? Do we normally run to God, or away from Him? And this message ends with a question: ’Are we serious about living for Jesus, or do we just go through the motions, thinking we are serious?’

    Two gas company employees were out reading meters one day when they started talking about how good of physical condition they were in.

    This sermon proclaims that God’s work in rebuilding His temple—and in strengthening His people today—is never accomplished by human effort but solely by the empowering, obstacle-flattening, hope-renewing work of the Holy Spirit.

    Not by Might but by My Spirit Zechariah 4:1-9 Let’s begin with the remarkable story of how God’s people — weary from exile yet renewed by hope — rebuilt the house of the Lord. Because of their idolatry, moral corruption, and rejection of God’s prophets, the nation of Judah fell to ...read more

    How do we know if the fruit of the Spirit is developing in our lives? I ask this question because nothing ever changes in our lives unless we have a sense of need or even desperation. Many of us are blind to our own weaknesses. Here are some simple steps in taking a self inventory

    Do the least-likely and least-lovely around me know that they can come and touch the hem of my Savior’s garment and receive the most magnificent of blessings? Can I keep Him to myself? How do I learn to step out and truly be His hands and voice and heart
