Finished Work Of God Series

Contributed by Colin Mcgeer on Jun 1, 2023

Jesus said, "It is Finished" Was man's redemption really finished? We would still be doomed if Jesus' death without the resurrection and ascension did not happen. We still wait for complete redemption. We eagerly wait for the redemption of our bodies.

There is such satisfaction in completing a task. In finishing a marathon. Like when I finished running the up Comrades 90km race. I lay on the grass on my back after the finish line holding my medal in my hand, tears running out of my eyes and I said to myself that nothing ever in my life would be ...read more

The Prayer Of Sorrow Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 5, 2006

Why would Jesus pray to have the "cup" taken away, if He knew that wasn’t going to happen? Was His prayer simply an excercise in futility, or was there something more to it? I learned some surprising truths as I prepared this sermon.

OPEN: A minister noticed a young boy kneeling off to the side of the room after youth group and praying very fervently. As the preacher came within earshot of the boy, he was surprised to hear the boy saying: "Tokyo, Tokyo, Tokyo." After the boy finished his praying the preacher approached him ...read more

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Aug 4, 2021

Today our lesson challenges us about our priorities in life – It asks the questions: “Do we still trust God today?” “Do we have Him in His proper place in our life?” “Do we still trust God in a pandemic?’ But do we really? Is God in 1st place on our priority list today?
