    Receive Grace Series

    Contributed by Kory Labbe on Sep 20, 2025
     | 372 views

    Let go of shame. Receive Jesus’ grace. Live in the forgiveness that frees you.

    Introduction Good morning, Church. Let me begin by doing what I often do: asking a question. Have you ever carried with you something from your past—something you wish you could erase? A choice, a mistake, a word spoken, a betrayal, a moment of weakness—something that still catches you off guard, ...read more

    Rider On The Storm

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 28, 2025
     | 328 views

    Jesus rides through life’s storms and history’s final tempest with self-giving love, ending evil and filling the universe with hallelujah.

    Part 1 – Storms A familiar sound of trouble In 1971 a strange new sound came over the radio: a low rumble of thunder, rain in the background, and Jim Morrison’s hushed voice sliding like mist through Riders on the Storm. It wasn’t just music; it was a feeling. The song pictured life as a ...read more

    From Why To What

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Feb 21, 2024
     | 1,224 views

    The normal human response, “Why did this happen?” calls God to account. On the other hand, “What do you want me to do?” is an invitation for God to call us to account.

    Sixty years ago President John Fitzgerald Kennedy sent a group of military advisors to a little country in the Far East that most Americans had never heard of. Their government was having some trouble with rebels and turned to the U.S. for help. Who else should they turn to? The United States was ...read more

    The Glory Of The Word

    Contributed by Efren V. Narido on Jul 27, 2024
     | 1,053 views

    Through His Work, it is evident to see the Glory of God. But to the believers, even His Glory is also perceived in His Word. And if we personally encounter His Word, what would be our reaction?

    “Then Jesus, deeply moved again, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it. Jesus said, ’Take away the stone.’ Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, ‘Lord, by this time there will be an odor, for he has been dead four days.’ Jesus said ...read more

    Joy In Troubled Times

    Contributed by Amiri Hooker on Dec 15, 2024
     | 1,284 views

    The Challenge of Joy in Troubled Times Church, this third Sunday of Advent—the pink candle Sunday—ushers us into joy. But how do we celebrate joy in a world so gripped by fear and trauma?

    Sermon Joy in Troubled Times Zephaniah 3:14-20 The Message 14-15 So sing, Daughter Zion! Raise your voices, Israel! Daughter Jerusalem, be happy! celebrate! God has reversed his judgments against you and sent your enemies off chasing their tails. From now on, God is Israel’s king, ...read more

    Don't Quit

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 24, 2024
     | 1,199 views

    Our victory is assured because Christ was victorious. We are “more than conquerors through Him who loved us” (Romans 8:37). Quitting is a shortcut leading to failure. We can finish strong when we focus on Christ.

    Opening illustration: In 1952 Florence Chadwick attempted to swim 26 miles from the coast of California to Catalina Island. After 15 hours, a heavy fog began to block her view, she became disoriented, and she gave up. To her chagrin, Chadwick learned that she had quit just 1 mile short of her ...read more

    From Tragedy To Triumph

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 1,387 views

    Even so, when tragedy strikes and your emotions are strongly felt, you especially need direction from the Lord. You need to know what to do in such a dark hour. You need direction.

    Opening illustration: It was 1818 in France, and Louis, a boy of 9, was sitting in his father's workshop. The father was a harness-maker and the boy loved to watch his father work the leather. "Someday Father," said Louis, "I want to be a harness-maker, just like you." ...read more

    The Extraordinary Goodness

    Contributed by Efren V. Narido on May 2, 2024
     | 1,066 views

    We should not equate the Goodness of Jesus Christ, who is fully and truly God, with our ordinary understanding of what is good. As the Divine Shepherd, then, what made His Goodness extraordinary?

    “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. He who is a hired hand and not a shepherd, who does not own the sheep, sees the wolf coming and leaves the sheep and flees, and the wolf snatches them and scatters them. He flees ...read more

    The Siege Is Over!

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,277 views

    A “siege” is a military term, which the dictionary describes as a “military blockade of a city or fortified place to compel it to surrender”. This was common in Biblical times.

    Hearing Problems

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 19, 2023
     | 1,108 views

    Are we afraid to ask what Jesus has in store for us, of what our future following him might look like?

    This was a very difficult sermon to prepare because this passage doesn’t really apply to you, at least not the way most preachers spin it. I can just hear the disciples arguing over who’s the greatest, can’t you? like a bunch of little boys bragging in the playground at recess, or kids ...read more

    The Mind That Holds Us Together

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 23, 2026
     | 127 views

    Unity is not preserved by control or agreement, but by shared orientation toward Christ, whose humility frees us from grasping and teaches us how to trust. Unity does not hold when we try harder to manage one another — it holds when we remain oriented toward Christ and trust God with the outcome.

    Introduction — When Unity Becomes Fragile There are moments in the life of a church when unity doesn’t collapse dramatically. It doesn’t split. It doesn’t fracture publicly. No one storms out. No vote is taken. No announcement is made. It simply… thins. The room still fills. The hymns are still ...read more

    based on 95 ratings
     | 30,836 views

    Our whole goal is to lead people to fall in love with God. Not to make them better people or better Christians, but to help them to better know the awesome power and intimacy of God’s love, and that will radically change their hearts and lives.

    The Christian is engaged in a spiritual battle and the weapons of our warfare are spiritual.

    In his book, Fuzzy Memories, Jack Handey writes, "There used to be this bully who would demand my lunch money every day. Since I was smaller, I would give it to him. "Then I decided to fight back. I started taking karate lessons, but the instructor wanted $5 a lesson. That was a lot of money. I ...read more
