    Christmas Makes For Pure Christians Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 15, 2021
     | 1,875 views

    The reality of Christmas is that God’s grace does not produce Christians who are cavalier about sin. My message in three words is simple: Don’t drift downstream.

    It just seems the holidays are meant for laziness. The week between Christmas Day and New Year’s Day is meant for sleeping in and for resting. Yet, I want to challenge your message during this “week of rest” - The reality of Christmas is that God’s grace does not produce Christians who are ...read more

    >> Bible Verse Reading Luke 11:1-4 (NIV) One day Jesus was praying in a certain place. When he finished, one of his disciples said to him, “Lord, teach us to pray, just as John taught his disciples.” He said to them, “When you pray, say: ‘Father, hallowed be your name, your kingdom ...read more

    A Forgotten Blessing Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Dec 10, 2021
     | 3,693 views

    Counting our blessings can often be a way of encouraging ourselves in our walk with Christ. However, there's one blessing we often forget.

    In Psalm 103:12 David exhorts himself in this way: “Bless the Lord, o my soul, and forget none of his benefits.” It’s an interesting sentiment. The great King David finds it necessary to instruct himself, or remind himself, not to forget any of the Lord’s blessings or benefits. If David had to ...read more

    Sometimes God's blessing creates beautiful problems that require faithful responses, while other times success can lead to spiritual complacency that demands honest restoration.

    The Place Is Too Small 2 Kings 6:1-6 Introduction There comes a moment in every believer's life, in every ministry, and in every congregation when we must honestly assess where we are and where God is calling us to go. Sometimes we find ourselves in seasons of growth that demand expansion, and ...read more

    More Focus On Forgiveness Series

    Contributed by Rick Crandall on May 18, 2024
     | 1,592 views

    Great Reasons why God wants us to forgive one another: 1. Our forgiveness helps pass God's grace on to others (vs. 29). 2. Not forgiving gives pain to God (vs. 30). 3. None of us is perfect (vs. 31-32). 4. We have God’s power at work in our hearts (vs. 31-32).

    Life and Ministry can be cruel. Do we understand the knock down count down? Maturity and growth does not always mean we win. What do you do when ministry knocks you down. Get up out of that pity puddle, wash off. Forgive. Answer this: WHO CONTROLS YOUR EMOTIONS? A seven mile walk that hurts?

    Costly Obedience

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jul 2, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 16,810 views

    Abraham faced the greatest trial of his life when God asked him to sacrifice the child of promise. From it, we learn that God tests our faith, grows our faith, and models sacrifice as the Heavenly Father gives his only Son for us.

    Genesis 22:1-14 Costly Obedience Sometimes we go through such heavy trials in this life. And, if we’re honest, we may wonder, “God, why are you allowing this to happen to me? I’m trying to follow you best I can. Why, Lord?” Yet, perhaps the better question would be, “Lord, what do you want me to ...read more
