Who Are You Going To Call When You Need Help?

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Jul 25, 2011

When you just can’t do it your self and you need someone to give you a helping hand to make it through, who do you reach out to for help? You may feel like there is no one you can run to but I’ve got good news there is One you can run to.

Who Are You Going To Call When You Need Help? Psalm 20:1-9 When trouble comes your way, to whom do you run to bail you out? When you have overwhelming needs, who do seek out to meet those needs?

How To Pray For Your Friends

Contributed by Patrick Nix on Apr 30, 2011

Do you ever catch yourself praying and wonder if what you are asking is even close to what God wants? I’ve wondered that a lot. I’ll be praying for someone to be healed of arthritis and think, ‘Maybe God doesn’t want to heal them yet. Maybe there’s som

The Treasure Inside

Contributed by Dean Morgan on Oct 12, 2011

Did you know that the word stress comes from a Latin word that means to be drawn tight? Is anybody here uptight about anything? How many times do you hear someone ask, “how are you doing” and they answer, “I’m all stressed out.” You hear that all of th

The Climb

Contributed by Charlie Roberts on Oct 28, 2018

there’s always going to be something to take your focus off of the truth, someone telling you can’t do this or that, but God would have me tell you, you can. As long as you focus on Jesus your life coach, your guide and instructor, there’s no mountain you can’t climb

“Lead me on to the top of the mountain, lead me safe to the other side, take my hand dear Lord and guide me, as long as you're going I don't mind the climb!” Those are the lyrics from the song Lead me on, by the Ernest Carter Trio. In life, everyone wants to go to the top of the mountain, very ...read more

A Pathway To Success - Beyond Uncertianty

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Apr 28, 2020

Someone has well said, “Nature forms us. Sin deforms us. Education informs us. BUT ONLY CHRIST TRANSFORMS US.” The Lord doesn’t expect us to do everything, but He does expect us to do something. He expects us to be more alert to the opportunities around us to pray, live and witness for Christ.

The Apostle Paul who had invested so much in the life of young Timothy, helps him prepare for a new beginning by offering him a pathway to success. I believe this is also a pathway for our success as we prepare the church to make its own mark. Timothy had been left at Ephesus to manage the affairs ...read more

The Sermon On The Mount (Part 18) Series

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jan 27, 2020

Today I'll be dealing with one of the most misused verses in the bible. Whenever someone addresses a sin in our life we pull out our trump card, Matt. 7:1, “Judge not, lest ye be judged!” Let's take a look into this passage so we can understand what Jesus meant.

Based on John MacArthur's book "Found: God's Will" How do I understand what God’s will is for my life? Have you ever heard someone say or maybe you, like me, have said these words… “I’m searching for God’s will”?

A Glimpse Of Glory

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Feb 26, 2019

When we look in the mirror what do we see? Do we see someone hopelessly lost in sin, or a repentant sinner, forgiven and being transformed into God’s image from glory to glory every day? Let’s look at Paul’s discussion of being remarkably transformed in 2 Corinthians 3:12-4:2.

A Bankrupt Son Returns Home

What would we think about someone who had spent all his inheritance on wild orgies, went bankrupt, dressed in rags, smelled of pig dung and wanted to come home? That’s our story today. It’s about a father and two sons and is found in Luke 15:1-3, 11b-32.

Unity Through Prayer

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Oct 31, 2023

I love it when someone calls me or texts me asking me questions about God’s Word. I don’t know all the answers, but I know the One who does! When I get these questions, it helps me grow. I believe it impossible for a church to grow, if the pastor and congregation are not growing in Christ!

Years ago, when Lisa and I joined a church that had just started, I invited some friends to church. They came, and one of them said “now that’s my kind of sermon, 13 minutes long”. Well, it wasn’t the short sermon that hooked him, because they never returned. Today may be the shortest sermon you ...read more

Control Freak

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Aug 15, 2023

Have you ever known a controlling type person? What's at the heart of being a control freak? You may be thinking of someone who needs to hear this sermon but just because we may not be a 'control freak' that doesn't mean we don't have any control issues.

3 More Than Stuff Series

Contributed by Steve Pearman on Dec 11, 2025

Christmas tells us that more presents equal more joy… but is that really true? In this message, we explore the story of the shepherds in Luke 2:1–20 and see how they discovered a joy far better than anything the world could wrap. Real joy isn’t something you open — it’s Someone you meet.

INTRODUCTION It’s great to be able to share our Christmas series Beyond the Hype — looking at how God invites us into something so much deeper and longer-lasting than the pressure-filled version of Christmas the world often sells us. Today we’re looking at a theme we all know too well this time of ...read more

When People Are Big And God Is Small

Contributed by Ervin Kimrey on Jun 14, 2005

What happens when we fear men more than God? Sounds silly doesn’t it. Why do people buy stuff they can’t afford, Why do we lie, Why don’t speak up agains wrong and the list goes on and on. Many times it is because we fear what someone will think of us.
