    This is the 15th sermon in a series we're doing on John's Gospel. In this sermon I discuss what faith is, and how true faith distinguishes itself from a false faith.

    A look at healing on the Sabbath and our choice of grace or law!

    Grace or Law? August 25, 2019 Luke 13:10-17 When we’re young we don’t think about bending over for things, do we? We just do it, we react. But, as we age, we tend to get a little more cautious. We realize if we pick up that package the wrong way, if we trip over that crack in the sidewalk, even ...read more

    Who Is On The Lord's Side?

    Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Apr 19, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 26,590 views

    To take the Lord's side is not a small issue. To take the Lord's side, puts you at oughts with the world. No man can serve two masters.

    One of the greatest benefits of preaching the Word of God is, if I say what he says, I'm never wrong. Dr. Mike Murdock says... I'm never wrong when I quote God. In the last few days there's been a phrase that has been going over in my mind. I'm very well aware of where it came from. ...read more

    Why Pray?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 2, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,030 views

    Prayer is not a monologue but a conversation between us and God. Those in contact with God have vision, they have a power within that can change people around them, they have authority with God and insight into what God is doing.

    WHY PRAY? INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: THE PASTOR’S PRAYER. 1. A Sunday School teacher was struggling to open the combination lock on the supply cabinet. He couldn't quite remember the combination. Finally, he went to the pastor and asked for help. The pastor came and began to turn the dial. ...read more

    There’s Always More

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 15, 2023
     | 2,275 views

    Even when we feel drained physically and financially, we still need to offer what resources we do have - and in so doing, find that we can do more than we thought.

    I have a lot of fellow feeling for the disciples in today’s story. I expect all of us who have put so much time and effort into VBS do, too. It’s done! We can put our feet up and have something to eat, talk about how everything went, see how well we did, maybe get a stroke or two for the old ego. ...read more

    The Armor Of God: The Sword Of The Spirit

     | 1,301 views

    If we were to have every piece of armor we have talked about up to this point, we would be capable of withstanding the devil's attacks in our life. But God gives us more! He wants us to be able to send the devil running, not simply be able to withstand his attacks!

He also liked the movie Ivanhoe, which was another swashbuckling film. As a result Kevin liked ...read more

    What does Jesus say about those who lead people astray?

    Introduction This is my last sermon here at GCC. When the realization that I was going to resign and move on into other avenues of ministry came to me. One of the first areas I mulled over was what I would say during my last message. I had always considered this day to be much further ahead in the ...read more

     | 2,161 views

    God has chosen to bless mankind and provide for our protection and safety by instituting human government. God is the one who established government. And do you notice a continuing phrase mentioned in these verses? What is it? (Government is God's minister).

    The Hope Of A Healthy Child Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jun 18, 2022
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,273 views

    Left to themselves, children tend to grow up wild and untamed. And instead of growing to the full potential, they often grow up wounded and broken adults. What can we do to give them a life filled with hope, peace and a future?

    OPEN: In the 1700s, there was a poet named Samuel Coleridge was talking with a friend who’d come to visit one day. During the conversation they got around to the subject of children. The visitor said “I believe children should be given the freedom to make all their own decisions. Parents should not ...read more

    Isn’t Advent a time of expectation and preparation? Doesn’t Advent challenge us to make changes in our lives? ... Didn’t David write this Psalm expressing remorse as well as the hunger for righteousness that only God could give him? Do we have that yearning in common with David?

    Remember O Lord, Your Great Mercy Text: Psalm 25 Psalm 25:1-10  Of David. To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul.  (2)  O my God, in you I trust; do not let me be put to shame; do not let my enemies exult over me.  (3)  Do not let those who wait for you be put to shame; let ...read more

    The Filling Of The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 24, 2021
     | 4,217 views

    Being controlled by the Spirit is not a dramatic or decisive one-time experience but it’s a daily, ongoing habit. There’s a kind of fullness of the Spirit that comes just simply obeying God and using the means of grace: Bible study, and prayer, and fellowship, obeying his will, etc.

    Today, I want to answer this question, “How can I tell if the Holy Spirit is controlling me?” We are not alone in asking this question as the renowned theologian Jonathan Edwards addressed the questions in his work, Religious Affections. In the book, Edwards moves through twelve “uncertain signs” ...read more

    The Greatest Conversion In History

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jul 19, 2021
     | 3,238 views

    We can make a case for Nineveh's conversion being the greatest conversion in history. But whether it was or not, Jesus was clearly impressed. It shows us what genuine repentance looks like.

    When I was a child people would sometimes give me a book called ‘the Guinness Book of Records’ as a Christmas present. I guess many of us have come across it. I remember as a kid browsing through the records. You can now find most of the records online and it’s now called simply ‘Guinness World ...read more

    When Jesus faced His temptation in the Wilderness He teaches us how we can face our temptations.

    Today we are going to begin to look at the Temptation of Jesus Christ. In Oscar Wilde's play “Lady Windemere's Fan” Lord Darlington says “I can resist anything but temptation”. It is said rather flippantly in the play, but for us it is a good starting point. Should we try to resist ...read more
