Living To Please God Series

Contributed by Chris Appleby on Mar 4, 2014

How are we to live a life that pleases God? By showing God’s love to those around us. By holding firm to the truth of the gospel, that Jesus Christ, the only Son of God, came to die for our sins and has risen again to bring us eternal life.

I want to talk about how we can live to please God. But first I suppose I should check whether that is one of your desires in life? Do you want to please God? Do you ask yourself regularly will this activity, this conversation, this friendship please God? Well, if that is your desire, let me tell ...read more

The First Shall Be Last, And The Last Shall Be First

Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 22, 2015

Jesus says that it isn’t the religious folk who are first in the kingdom of heaven. It is those who are most open to turning their lives around who are first in line, those who take action when Jesus says, “follow me”.

It’s painful to have someone you trust tell you that they are going to do something for you---and they don’t. Many of us can tell stories about people who have let us down by making promises and then not following up on them. For example, there is a story of a young widow whose husband ...read more

Only God: Breakthrough Faith

Contributed by John Bishop on Mar 25, 2009

Sometimes telling people about Christ seems like the most dangerous risk we can take. Pastor John Bishop challenges you to allow God to interrupt your life for the cause of Christ.

You know, when I see statistics about the number of people that die everyday; when I see those numbers I just wonder; what would God do if we would just see the reality of people that we know right now, that maybe next week, or maybe next month, or maybe next year, that we may not ever have the ...read more

The Government Of The Promised Son, Part 1 (Isaiah 9:6-7)

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 5, 2024

Isaiah's writings contain numerous references to the rule and person of God's Messiah. There are two specific passages worth examining. The first deals with His rule as King. The other deals with the righteous kingdom He will create and rule over forever in peace and joy.

There are verses in the Bible that bring joy and peace to the troubled soul. There are verses which give us the assurance that the promises of God are true and faithful. There are those verses which give us the affirmation that God has given us mercy and salvation we do not deserve, yet in HIs ...read more
