    Hope Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jun 27, 2021
     | 4,552 views

    Christmas is a time to reflect upon the height and depth and breath of God’s love and the lengths that He will go to to show us His love. Christmas is a time to remember that God doesn’t demand that we love Him but gives us the choice to love Him.

    In the beginning was … nothing? A “formless void” (Genesis 1:1)? Yet the Bible says a wind (the breath of God) swept over the surface of the "water" (Genesis 1:2) so there something there ... maybe everything there … the particles ... all the molecules, all of the “substance” of the ...read more

    Being Independent Together

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Jul 1, 2021
     | 6,545 views

    Being independent of this world while being dependent upon God is a Christian's life's goal? This idea is similar to the thoughts which led to the thirteen U.S. colonies declaring their independence from Britain.

    Being Independent Together Scripture: John 8:36; Exodus 1:11a; 3:7-8; Romans 12:2 “If the Son therefore shall make you free, you shall be free indeed.” (John 8:36) Today, in the United States, we are celebrating the Fourth of July holiday. Independence Day (July 4th), is a U.S. federal ...read more

    God Gives His Spirit Series

    Contributed by Ed Cheng on Jul 2, 2021
     | 2,632 views

    When God gave his Spirit to the believers, we see the church begins to expand and grow. God keeps adding new members to the church day by day until Jesus the promised saviour returns. Jesus is the beginning and the end.

    Power: God Gives His Spirit After Jesus had gone back to heaven, his disciples stayed in Jerusalem waiting for God’s spirit. At this time, there was another religious holiday and Jewish people from all over the world had come to Jerusalem to celebrate. One day the disciples were gathered ...read more

    The Promise Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jul 4, 2021
     | 5,472 views

    Hopelessness is the doorway to hope and Christ is our doorway to eternal hope. The promise of hope in the future is our hope in the present, amen?

    How many of you have had the experience of praying to God and it seems like God is not listening or not answering your prayer? All of us, I would suspect. Sadly, I’ve seen that take people out of the faith. God didn’t answer their prayers so they either turned their back on God or concluded ...read more

    Satan's Two-Pronged Attack Series

    Contributed by Troy Borst on Jul 6, 2021
     | 3,325 views

    Before the end Satan has a good plan to be bad. His plan centers on two points. The first point is ‘lawlessness.’ The second point is ‘believing what is false.’ We need to know this plan so we do not get caught in it, trapped, and end up coming to nothing ourselves.

    SATAN’S TWO-PRONGED ATTACK 2 THESSALONIANS 2:1-17 #2Thessalonians2 INTRODUCTION… TWO-PRONGED TRAVEL PLAN (p) It is always a good idea to have a plan. When I went on a road trip at the end of April to Colorado for a funeral, I had a plan. I decided to take my time driving and stop at different ...read more

    Holy Spirit Baptism Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Jul 7, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,957 views

    This sermon examines Holy Spirit baptism from a Baptist's perspective, asking, "Is it really a second work of grace?" and "Must it be evidenced by speaking in tongues?" Also, "Is being filled with the Spirit the same thing?"

    This morning, I’m going to have us look at something called “Holy Spirit baptism.” This is a subject that when mishandled can lead to a lot of confusion; not to mention, feelings of condemnation. The very first time I encountered this term was when I was in college and I attended an Assemblies of ...read more

    Enjoying The Maturing Process

    Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Jul 10, 2021
     | 2,007 views

    This is a series of sermons based upon 1 John that focuses on the foundation of the Christian experience, love and fellowship with God. 1 John is about application of these two themes. This is sermon 4 of 14, a series about a genuine relationship with God and right living.

    What mother ever gives birth to a child with the goal for the child to remain a baby, never to grow into maturity? What mother would ever delight in seeing her child go immediately from infancy to heaven? On this day, my heart is heavy when I think about the children who never get to enjoy their ...read more

    When you are in a relationship, you have obligations. Christians are in a relationship with Christ and with that relationship comes obligations, This message looks at six of them.

    Father, we love your presence. We love your presence. We love you Lord and we give you all the glory. You are such a good, good Father. We love you and we give you praise this morning.

     | 6,299 views

    This sermon is focused on helping us to press on to enjoy the life that is our for the experiencing – a life that is progressive, a life that understands how the Lord corrects and prunes us for our benefit and a life that enjoy the fruits of being an authentic Christ follower.

    Staying Clam In A Storm Of Heresy Series

    Contributed by Jack Perkins, D.min., Ladc, Csac, Cclc on Jul 29, 2021
     | 2,703 views

    A major concern for John is heresy within the church and the manner it is causing problems and robbing believers of their joy. John uses antichrist in reference to those who perhaps start with seemingly sincere faith; yet, their teaching becomes contrary to Christ and abiding in him.

    There is a universal theme that runs through the book of 1 John, abiding in Christ. This is the key to “living in the world but not of the world. When we refuse to live in the world, we fail to serve Christ. Joe McKeever wrote the following. In the 1987 meeting of the Southern Baptist ...read more

    The Wise, The Unwise, And The Otherwise Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Aug 4, 2021
     | 6,888 views

    In James chapter 3, James contrasts two kinds of wisdom: worldly wisdom and godly wisdom. The fruits that result from these two kinds of wisdom couldn't be any more different from each other.

    A. Let’s start our sermon this morning with a quote: “Life is hard and it’s harder when you’re stupid.” 1. We chuckle at that because we all know it’s true. 2. Some people attribute that quote to John Wayne. 3. I don’t know if the Duke did or didn’t say those words. 4. The line doesn’t appear in ...read more

    Bacon Or Eggs Part 1 Series

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Aug 9, 2021
     | 7,241 views

    Is God a forethought or afterthought in our life? Are we giving Him platitudes or our whole self? Are we giving Him our all? This series takes a look at how we are serving God.

    Bacon or Eggs Part 1 Scripture: Matthew 6:33; 19:16-26; Mark 12:41-44 Two weeks ago, on August 1st, I was lying in bed when the Spirit of God began to speak to me about our relationship with Him.

    In life we have three big appointments.

    We all realize the need for making appointments in life. Appointments are as much a part of our lives as breathing itself is. There are two kinds of appointments. Some of these appointments are VOLUNTARY APPOINTMENTS and some of them are INVOLUNTARY APPOINTMENTS. But whether they are VOLUNTARY or ...read more
