I Hate To Say, 'i Told You So,' But... Series

Contributed by Curry Pikkaart on Sep 12, 2013

Since the day God promised Satan's head would be crushed, God has been weaving together His plan for over-coming the power and forces of evil.

“The Great Unveiling: I Hate To Say, ‘I Told You So,’ But . . .” Revelation 18:1 – 19:5 I stand in awe of Scripture. I’m overwhelmed by the way it lays out the plans and workings of God. Consider, for example, this fall of Babylon. In Jeremiah 51:59-64 Seraiah ...read more

Sermon # 17 - The Power Of A Praying Church Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on May 8, 2023

There is not telling as to the extraordinary outcomes when the church comes together to pray. The only way we can assure in a revival, and the powerful move of the Holy Spirit is through prayer.

We read in Acts 4:31, “When they finished praying, the place where they were meeting was shaken. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to proclaim God's message with boldness.”(GNB) As the believers in the early church met together for prayer there was a mighty manifestation of ...read more

Contributed by Michael Stark on Aug 22, 2015

Is your gospel big enough to permit you to work together, maintaining the unity of the Faith? Or is your gospel so small that you must prevail in every dispute?

Some Actions Are Always Wrong So What Do We Do? Series

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 19, 2021

Murdering the innocent is always gravely immoral. Thus we have been taught since the first Christians accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and celebrated communion together.

Homily Monday of 12th week in ordinary time If we are to understand what the Lord is saying to us today, and more importantly what He is not saying, we need to find the key word in the Gospel: it’s “hypocrite.” A hypocrite is someone who calls sin a sin in other people, but ignores the sin in ...read more

Water Is Thicker Than Blood

Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 2, 2021

Water is what brings Christians together. Our baptism by water makes us all family. The bonds of the branches to the vine should be stronger than blood bonds.

The old saying that “blood is thicker than water” was being upended in this narrative. In this case, one can say that water is thicker than blood. Water is referring to the initiation rite of baptism. At that ceremony, the person being baptized with water becomes a member of the Christian family. ...read more

The True Light Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 24, 2021

John was so dazzled by the light of Christ that he became the apostle of light and used the word light in his Gospel more than all the others put together.

A young man went from paper to paper trying to get a job as a cartoonist, but he was rejected and told he had no talent. Finally, a pastor hired him to draw advertising for the church events. It was a poor paying job, and he had no place to stay, and so he was allowed to sleep in the old church ...read more

Strait And Narrow Sermon I: Christians Choose The Strait And Narrow Series

Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Jun 10, 2020

As culture drifts further away from biblical truth, believers in Christ do not let cultural differences divide us but come together as one in the Family of God.

CHRISTIANS CHOOSE THE LORD’S “STRAIT AND NARROW” OVER THE WORLD’S “WIDE AND BROAD” As culture drifts further away from biblical truth, some Christians struggle with their conscience – having had the notion planted in their minds that “wide and broad” thinkers and doers might have it ...read more

Talk The Talk And Walk The Walk

Faith and works. This is the duo that is inseparable for James. James lays that out pretty plainly in this passage. Faith and works must go together. Belief and action, words and deeds.

Text: James 2:14-26 DT: James is telling us that we need to not only talk HIS talk, but walk HIS walk. When I was a kid I had a favorite duo. Two things that went together that one without the other just didn’t happen or it just didn't make sense that was Woody and Buzz lightyear. I love the ...read more

A Peculiar People: Distinctiveness That Reflects Christ

Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 26, 2026
