    God loves people who have failed and messed up, and there’s nothing he wants to do more than extend forgiveness for sin, and healing for brokenness. And the greater your brokenness, the greater God’s opportunity to demonstrate his grace!

(25) For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. (26) For what will it profit a man if he gains the ...read more

    The Reality Of Hell

     | 5,420 views

    Yes God is a loviing God who sent His only begotten Son to die on the cross to atone for the sines of the world, but this does not, cannot, mean that everyone is saved. Universalism is a nice thought, but nor biblical. The worst sinner can become a saint,

    Luke 16: 19-31 Sermon: The reality of Hell Most preachers do not like giving sermons on hell, preferring to use terms such as “lost eternity”. Most pastors don't want to be regarded as a "fire and brimstone" preacher, yet we do no one a favour by avoiding this unpleasant subject. ...read more

    PENTECOST 9 --- Christians are God's children. This means that even though we are sinful we are still, always loved by God - our heavenly Father.

    CHRISTIANS ARE GOD’S CHILDREN (Outline) August 14, 2011 - Pentecost 8 - ROMANS 8:12-17 INTRO: From last week to this week our texts take us from slaves to children. This is quite an adjust-ment for our Christian character to comprehend. There is a wide gap between lives as ...read more

    Restoration, is still paramount in the deep south, in a diaspora, that practiced redistribution of wealth and sinned against God, when they took, from their neighbors, and falsely claimed lands and properties that did not belong to them.

    Lord, I Clearly See, Restore To Me “Then it shall be, because he hath sinned, and is guilty, that he shall restore that which he took violently away, or the thing which he hath deceitfully gotten, or that which was delivered him to keep, or the lost thing which he found,” ...read more

    Belonging In A Better Place Series

     | 2,221 views

    King Saul had just died. David had been anointed king for the second time. Now he looked at the city of Jerusalem (a Jebusite stronghold) and said to himself, "I"m going to take that city. That is where I belong as the King of Israel."

    This story unfolds in four main points: 1. David’s Desire for Jerusalem (v. 6a) It’s interesting that the Bible does not say anything about David’s desire to take Jerusalem. Verse 6 simply says, “And the king and his men went to Jerusalem unto the Jebusites.” However, David was a conqueror, and ...read more

    Conflict between the old and the new can lay the foundation for growth, even if the self-examination and change can be painful.

    One afternoon when I was 14 or 15, my father and I down in a bottom of a large hole in the side yard digging a septic tank.

    No, I didn't actually tear up a Bible, but my audience didn't know that. Find out why I pretended to do that, and what that means to those who actually do tear pages from Scripture.

    Last week I said that we’re going to make one statement over and over throughout this series: We don’t have to APOLOGIZE for our faith. We don’t need to rally to God defense. Our God is bigger than we are – and doesn’t really need our help. But in spite of that… God calls us to contend for the ...read more

    Our Outrageous God

    based on 10 ratings
     | 3,406 views

    The story of Hosea is a love story and a picture of the grace of God. But it’s also a bit of a shocker. It was the talk of the town back in Hosea’s day and that’s what God intended. He wanted people to take notice.

    Our Outrageous God Hosea 3 Matt 20 vv 1-16 Have you ever noticed that people get to look like their pets? It is said that a vet can tell a lot about a dog owner he has never met just by observing the dog. What, I wonder, does the world learn about God by watching us his followers here on earth?

    6th and last in series on what Pentecost means. This contrasts Acts 2 with Exodus 19, showing that even though the fire was once only for Moses, it’s for all believers today.

    Acts 2:1-4 – Fire Inside Three ladies had a bible study and were talking about being refined by the fire. They did not understand about being refined in the fire like silver.
