    God Sends A Preacher Series

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Sep 11, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,627 views

    Are we still waiting for the gospel, eager to hear the preaching? Do we come to church hungry for the food of the Word? To you and me it will be good news only if we realize how much we need it—how much we need the Lord every day, and every hour.

    We’re about to do something very old-fashioned. It’s not often anymore that people will sit down for thirty or forty minutes, and listen to another person talking: without interruption, without visual aids, or any active engagement of the audience. But that’s what a sermon is. And so a sermon is an ...read more

    Friendship with the world is enmity with God. Can any Christian truly afford the price demanded so that we can be friends with the world?

    JAMES 4:4 THE HIGH COST OF FRIENDSHIP WITH THE WORLD “You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.” Ouch! James is not nice! He calls fellow Christians harsh names ...read more

    But The People Were Silent

     | 9,439 views

    The people of God must never keep silent in the midst of attack on the message of the gospel. Elijah took a stand even in a hostile and homicidal environment. The people had so much compromised that they could not choose for Jehovah God.

    BUT THE PEOPLE WERE SILENT 1 Kings 18:17-39 17 And it came to pass, when Ahab saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him, Art thou he that troubleth Israel? 18 And Elijah answered, I have not troubled Israel; but thou, and thy father's house, in that ye have forsaken the commandments of the Lord, and thou ...read more

     | 202 views

    The sermon calls us to seek God’s kingdom first, embrace repentance, and live out our faith together, trusting God to provide and guide us.

    If you came in today with a to-do list longer than a week and a heart full of what-ifs, you’re in the right place. The King is kind, and His words are clear.

    Jesus lovingly calls us to reject complacency, pursue genuine relationship with Him, and value what truly matters over worldly success or self-sufficiency.

    There’s a kindness in the way Jesus speaks to us. He doesn’t holler from across the street; He knocks at the front door. He doesn’t shove His way into our living rooms; He stands and waits, like the Friend you can trust with the tender truth. You can almost hear the hinge creak as you reach for the ...read more

     | 116 views

    God seeks ordinary people willing to pray and stand in the gap, using their faithfulness to bring hope, healing, and change to a broken world.

    Some of the greatest moments in the Bible begin with God looking for a person. Not a celebrity. Not a committee. A person. A shepherd with a sling. A teenage girl with a “yes.” A fisherman with a net. Heaven leans over the balcony and asks, “Who will stand? Who will say yes? Who will carry My heart ...read more

    Amazingly the world, entirely, or for an individual, can change dramatically in an incredibly short time. Although this is often hard for us, it’s going to happen again and we look forward to that time.
