Sermon On Imprudence

Contributed by William Meakin on May 21, 2022

Imprudence is defined as the quality of being unwise, because you fail to consider the possible results of your actions.

Matshona Dhliwayo, a Zimbabwean-born and Canadian based philosopher, entrepreneur and author once remarked: “Making money is intelligence; saving money is wisdom. Squandering money is imprudence.

Giving Us What We Need Most Series

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Oct 27, 2022

Instead of healing the paralytic, Jesus first meets his most important need, the forgiveness of his sins, much to everyone's annoyance.

In our Gospel Lesson this morning, we meet up with Jesus just after he returns “home.” We don’t always think of Jesus having a home, but this was not his own anyway. In this case, home seems to mean Peter’s home in Capernaum. Shortly before our Gospel, both Matthew and Mark share a similar record ...read more

Delusions That Defy Common Sense

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 16, 2021

The world system and all who live by it apart are deluded by both the devil and their own depraved minds. They believe they have everything figured out and can live without the intervention of God Almighty. Scripture proves otherwise.

The apostle Paul reminded the church of Corinth that there was a time to put away childish things and assume the maturity and responsibility expected of an adult or mature young person (1 Corinthians 13:11). The time comes for everyone to grow up and realize that the world and all you know does ...read more

Jesus Anti-Evangelism Series

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Mar 16, 2024

In John's Gospel, Jesus does something many people find surprising, that of frequently driving away people who claim to be believers in Him. Today we look in depth at those He drove away in John 8, why He did it, and especially how He did it by claiming to be the Great I AM!

Our move now through the Lenten Season, and to the cross has a purpose: to confront people to make a decision about what they think about Jesus. The TRUE Jesus. This week, we focus on the foolishness of the cross to those who want to accept Him on their own terms. In 1 Cor 1: 18 The word of the ...read more

Sermon On Trust And Freedom

Contributed by William Meakin on Mar 20, 2022

Trust could be said to have a symbiotic relationship with freedom, without one the other is difficult to find.

Solomon, an American-born philosopher and author once remarked: “Trust is not bound up with knowledge so much as it is with freedom, the openness to the unknown.” Proverbs 3:5 states: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding.” Galatians 5:1 ...read more
