Sermons on Spiritual Living:

God's Plan For Us

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Feb 24, 2024

In Jeremiah 29, God, through Jeremiah promises blessing to the people in exile, a promise that often is misunderstood without the context.

During the Summer, I brought up a verse during a sermon that is usually listed on any top lists of “mis-applied” verses. Afterward, I got into a nice conversation with Gordon Douglas, Pastor Ron’s old comedian friend, who was visiting with us and had recently spoken on how often he sees this verse ...read more

You're Not Simple, And Neither Is God

Contributed by Michael Blitz on Jun 14, 2025

People want a "simple religion" and want to make God simple. Yet we ourselves are not simple at all, so how could our Creator be? Though God is complex, in Trinity, he displays for us love within that union, a love which models for us the love we should have for each other.

Good Morning. Give me a simple religion. It’s what a lot of people want, and it’s what a lot of people have tried to turn Christianity into through the years. Of course, if someone calls US simple, we are very offended. Yet somehow, we think the God who made us has to be simpler than we are. I am ...read more

Persevere In Faith, Be Focused On His Promise

Contributed by Rev Silvester David on Jul 2, 2025

We have many challenges laid before us in life. Isaac is a classic example of preserving in faith in the midst of all challenges and oppositions in life.

Our journey of faith is filled with many obstacles and challenges. When the challenges are caused by nature or sickness or any other natural cause we will somehow swim through the challenges. But when the challenges are raised by people, that is when most of us call it a quit by backing of from ...read more

The Peril Of Self-Exaltation

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Jul 18, 2025

God created us for His glory, not ours. When we learn to redirect all praise, success, and honour to Him, we stay safe under His covering. But when we begin to think we are the source of our own greatness, we invite destruction.

And Still, She Gives: Mark 12:41-44

Contributed by Christopher Metze on Jul 29, 2025

Jesus praises the widow not to excuse injustice—but to highlight sacrificial giving and inspire resilient faithfulness in a world that desperately needs it.

A poor widow stands in the temple, clutching two small coins in her hand. The coins amount to only a quarter of a day’s wage, and though they are all she has, she still intends to give them as her offering. She may feel exposed—perhaps even small—surrounded by others with far greater wealth to ...read more
