Don’t Flinch

Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 12, 2024

Christians are not supposed to "flinch" or hesitate to speak God's truth, or from declaring ALL the gospel of God, or flinch in their allegiance to Jesus. Let's surrender ALL today!

DON’T FLINCH Acts 20:27 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A pastor was walking down the street when he saw 12 young boys gathered around a dog. Worried that the boys might hurt the dog, he went over and asked, “What are you doing with that dog?” 2. One of the boys replied, “It’s a stray dog; we all ...read more

Revivalist-In-Training

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jul 4, 2023

What Jesus did in the gospels should be seen in the Church today, but it's not. A revivalist is a person who restores what is unused. But it starts with recognizing where we are in our walk with Jesus.

Good evening. My name is Barry, and I am a revivalist-in-training. Now, let me explain what I mean. Webster’s dictionary gives two basic meanings for the word revival and the one that, in my view, reflects what I believe the Bible teaches is “restoration of force, validity, or effect (as to a ...read more

Sermon # 43 - Good News For All Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 13, 2023

In a world that bombards us with bad news, there is hope and good news only through Jesus Christ. The good news of the gospel can transform all of our situations if only we give heed and believe.

A Peep Into The Great Commission: Go Ye Therefore And Make Disciples… Matthew 28: 19.

Contributed by Uwomano Okpevra on Oct 10, 2023

The theological foundation for the Great Commission can be traced to specific passages in the New Testament, which encapsulate the essence of the Great Commission - Jesus Christ instructs his disciples to disseminate the gospel to all corners of the world.

Hearing From God

Contributed by Mark Mitchell on Sep 18, 2023

It is important to remember that all of these activities in this passage is a result of taking the gospel to the lost. (v.5) It is possible that Paul was discouraged or weary from the work and the Lord strengthened him as Paul spoke of in Ephesians 6:10

I. Paul was faithful (v.4) A. Regardless of the amount of opposition. B. Christ had to encourage him. (v.9-10) II. He was passionate (v.6) A. In that passion he had a sense of urgency B. A sense of soberness III. Paul was sacrificial (v. 12) A. He had little concern for his own well being B. He was ...read more

If we listen to God and the Lost, we'll be able to discern how to share the gospel and help people respond in faith. Check out these thoughts from our Family Minister Scott Jewell.

I’m going to do something different this morning as we get started.

The Lord Loves Cheerful Workers.

Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Jul 3, 2022

We all need to leave the next at some times, and live. Jesus needed his 70 disciples to leave, and preach the gospel. He also gave them instructions to help them do so.

Introduction I am sure you are aware of the parallel between the four gospels and the four living creatures in the vision of Ezekiel. You know: the Lion, symbolizing his supremacy and kingship; the Man, symbolizing the highest of intelligence; the Ox, for his lowly service, (a symbol which we like ...read more

Called To A Method, A Mission And A Ministry

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Apr 11, 2022

Follow Me! If we would only do what Jesus said, our witness would be multiplied. The volume of our commitment would be amplified, and we would impact the world by taking the Gospel everywhere.

Sermon - Called to a Method, a Mission and a Ministry Luke 6:46-49 Nearing the end of the sermon on the mount, Jesus had had enough. For too long His crowds had been listening without acting.

The Why Of Easter (Romans5:1-11) Series

Contributed by James Jackson on Apr 17, 2022

The Gospels tell us the "what" of Easter. Movies like "The Passion" tell us the "how." But in Romans 5, the Apostle Paul tells us the why.

Happy Easter! He is Risen, He has risen indeed. If you have your Bibles, please turn to Romans 5. You might be a little surprised to be back in Romans, but a kind of weird thing happened. I went back to Romans this week because I wanted to get a jump on next week’s sermon, since I’m going to be ...read more

Advent 2021 - Christmas Sunday - Pointing Fingers

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Dec 18, 2021

Is it OK to point literally or figuratively? There is a lot of pointing going on in the nativity story, the Gospels, the rest of the New Testament and in the Old Testament. What is the pointing all about? It's all about Jesus!

What Did Jesus Look Like? Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

Nowhere in all the Old Testament does the gospel shine more brilliantly than in Isaiah 53. This one chapter is quoted seven times in the New Testament and it is alluded to another 44 times in the New Testament.

Do you have a friend who is upset about what God has not done? More and more people seem to be upset that God has not stopped some type of tragic event. One young lady is upset because God did not stop her father from dying at a relatively young age. Another father cannot believe in God because God ...read more

Contributed by Ken Mckinley on Sep 23, 2019

Freed by Truth (John pt. 25) Text: John 8:30-32 Now before we get to our text this morning, I want to remind you all John’s purpose for writing this Gospel account… It’s in John 20:30-31… It says, “Now Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; ...read more
