    Who We Are!

    Contributed by Lucy Paynter on Sep 7, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,056 views

    Self-identity is something that many people struggle to define. Several times I tend to ask people, especially the young adults and teenagers this question. Who am I? Today we will understand our identity in Christ.

    Revelation 5:9-10 King James Version (KJV) 9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; 10 And hast made us unto our God ...read more

    Resurrection Relationships

    Will there be marriage in heaven? Jesus suggests there will be something better. Scripture points us to a bodily resurrection, with believers bound in intimate relationships to God and each other. Death has lost its sting! We will live forever with God!

    Luke 20:27-38 Resurrection Relationships Today’s scripture might hit some of you kind of hard. “What do you mean I won’t be married in heaven? I’ve been looking forward to seeing my spouse again. That’s all that keeps me going!” Or, “What does it mean to ...read more

    What Is Your Calling? (Part 6) Series

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Mar 10, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,266 views

    Has God really called you? Then where is that separation? Where is your heart? What is it captivated by? Is the presence of the Holy Spirit evident in your life? This is not something you can determine or speak for yourself. This the church will testify.

    Opening Illustration: A certain king needed a faithful servant and had to choose between two candidates for the office. He took both at fixed wages and told them to fill a basket with water from a nearby well, saying that he would come in the evening to inspect their work. After dumping one or two ...read more

    What must we do to prepare for Christ’s Coming? Should we closely follow world events, research prophecy and draw up wildly speculative timelines? Is there something spiritual that we should be looking at in ourselves?

    Prelude What must we do to prepare for Christ’s Coming? Should we closely follow world events, research prophecy and draw up wildly speculative timelines?

     | 7,049 views

    This message describes Jesus' response to the Pharisees because His disciples did not fast. The Pharisees opposition stemmed from a defense of the status quo. Jesus came to smash the status quo and create something new and superior.

    #12 Parties, Patches and Wineskins Series: Mark March 15, 2020 Chuck Sligh Several ideas and illustrations for this sermon were adapted from David Dykes’ sermon on SermonCentral.com, Old Whiners or New Wineskins.

     | 367 views

    What does it mean to see? Is sight merely the ability of the eyes to perceive light, or is it something deeper—an awareness, an understanding of truth, reality, and purpose? What do we do when we cannot perceive the truth?

    *** Use responsible and make adjustment based on your audience. Let the Holy Spirit minister through you. Note. I used some additional notes. You can build on this outline. Be blessed.**** Introduction What does it mean to see? Is sight merely the ability of the eyes to perceive light, or is it ...read more

    Unwavering Faith

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,407 views

    How do we take faith to a different level? Moving faith from simply trusting the unknown to faith as trusting God to provide? Faith is not believing something will happen; faith is believing what God said will happen.

    “UNWAVERING FAITH” 1 KINGS 17:8-16 Faith is part of everyday living. When you are ill, you go to a doctor whose name you cannot pronounce. He gives you a prescription you cannot read. You take it to a pharmacist you have never seen. He gives you medication you do not understand. Yet, you take it. ...read more

    Abraham: When It Was Time For Some To Leave Series

    Isaac, the son of Abraham and Sarah in their old age, was finally born! Sometime later, Abraham prepared a great feast to celebrate a milestone in Isaac's life. Something happened, and some found they had to leave. For good.

    Introduction: Abraham must have dearly loved Ishmael, his first-born son. Abraham had watched Ishmael grow to young manhood, even making sure he was circumcised along with Abraham and every male in the household. But now, something was about to happen, and Ishmael along with Hagar, his mother, were ...read more

    Listen To My Voice Series

    Contributed by Amiri Hooker on Apr 25, 2021
     | 2,774 views

    The real question for us today is not, “Will God speak to me, to us today?” Instead, will we listen for that voice that is speaking? Jesus doesn’t say, “Listen and maybe I’ll have something to say.”

    On this Fourth Sunday of Easter as you look at the lectionary the gospel lesson shifts from historical recounting of the events following to resurrection to Christological reflection. The goal is to assist us as we, like Mary and the disciples, seek to understand what happened and is happening to ...read more

    Sharing Ministry Together

    When the volunteer workload is placed on the shoulders of just a handful of people, then these individuals get burnt out; and since they can’t do everything, then a lot of needs go unmet. Ministry is something to be shared among all believers.

    I wish to begin our message by sharing a personal account contributed by a pastor who was serving at a church in Washington State during the wake of the Mount St. Hellens eruption. This pastor said, After Mount St. Helens blew up in May 1980, [the] church needed cleaning up. Ash was in the ...read more

    We often struggle to see beyond our immediate challenges, yet Nahum was able to perceive something greater. His deep understanding of God's Grace allowed him to see beyond his immediate circumstances and emotions.

    I want to focus on the powerful message found in the first four words of Nahum 1:7: "The Lord is good." Although the book of Nahum can be challenging to read and preach from, it is important to note that the minor prophets' messages are just as significant as those of the major prophets. The book ...read more

     | 2,960 views

    Being a mother is a huge responsibility and a very tiring job. Therefore, today we want to appreciate them and learn from four mothers in the Bible. Even though they are not perfect, we can learn something from them.

    Opening: In 2002, after Brenda Heist dropped off her children at school, she disappeared. She never made a call or sent a letter to her daughter, who was just eight years old, and her son was just ten years old then. But ten years later, suddenly, she reappeared.

    Some Aspects Of The Church From Its Beginning To Eternity – The Great Mystery Of The Church - And New Testament Mysteries – Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 4, 2023
     | 1,260 views

    One of the amazing explorations in the New Testament is to look at all the mysteries. These have impacted the Church greatly. A mystery is something that was hidden in the past; not known, but at a certain point in time, the whole truth is revealed. We look at 21 mysteries.

    SOME ASPECTS OF THE CHURCH FROM ITS BEGINNING TO ETERNITY – THE GREAT MYSTERY OF THE CHURCH - AND NEW TESTAMENT MYSTERIES – PART 2 We continue this series of studies and today we are thinking about the mysteries of the New Testament of which the Church is one. THE CHURCH IS A GREAT MYSTERY. ...read more

    There is a problem, David prays, God quickly answers David, and let’s David know, it’s because of something that happened during the time of Saul. And now it’s David’s job to make it right.

    Because Jesus rose from the dead – so will we … but before we go, we are changed into something he wants us to be. He wants us to look forward to dead, and our future life with him.

    This sermon was delivered to St Oswald’s in Maybole, Ayrshire, Scotland on the 9th April 2023 (a Scottish Episcopal Church in the Dioceses of Glasgow and Dumfries). “Please join me in my prayer.” Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of our hearts, be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, ...read more
