    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Sep 10, 2021
     | 1,719 views

    The Apostle Paul lived on the edge of death, that’s for sure. As he traveled from here to there, throughout his ministry he planted many churches.

    “In ancient Rome, crowds by the tens of thousands would gather in the Colosseum to watch as Christians were torn apart by wild animals. Paul Rader, commenting on his visit to this famous landmark, said, "I stood uncovered to the heavens above, where He sits for whom they gladly died, and asked ...read more

    If I’ve Received Salvation, Why Do I Still Struggle? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 18, 2023
     | 1,697 views

    Romans 7 delves into the struggles we as Christians experience in this world: wanting to follow God yet often caught up in our sin nature. What does Paul teach us about how we are to look at that reality?

    DEAD MAN WALKING: Dying with Christ is important because it means we’ve been freed. - Romans 7:1-4a. - Chapter 7 obviously flows from chapter 6. Last week in chapter 6 the big ideas we talked about were the (a) we are dead to sin and alive to Christ and (b) that we have to choose if we are going ...read more

    Living Water

    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 18, 2019
     | 5,094 views

    This message is about the importance of living water. The western mind struggles to comprehend how important this was to the woman at the well. As is today spiritually we struggle to truly connect to this analogy.

    Note: I did read a few articles on the waters of the Middle East in Jesus' day. So this is a combination of different sources. Title: Living Water Theme: To show the need for more in a persons life and how to share our faith. Text: John 4:1 - 26 Therefore, when the Lord knew that the ...read more

    Bad Decisions #1 Series

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Nov 7, 2024
     | 927 views

    Waiting in times of struggle (either because of our own bad choices or God’s timing) is the ultimate action of faith.

    What to eat, what to wear, who to respond to first, what to prioritize at work — each of us makes hundreds, if not thousands, of decisions each day. Some of these choices have larger consequences than others. For starters, who we choose to surround ourselves with, where we live, who we worship, ...read more

    Today’s church struggles with idolatry just like the nation of Israel struggled with it. Repeatedly Israel invited God’s displeasure by their dual allegiance which was and is idolatry.

And the people answered him not a word.” - Today’s church struggles with idolatry just like the nation of Israel ...read more
