    Joseph Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Feb 20, 2022
     | 4,487 views

    Joseph, son of Jacob and Rachel, lived in the land of Canaan with ten half-brothers, one full brother, and at least one half-sister. He was Rachel's firstborn and Jacob's eleventh son. Of all the sons, Joseph was preferred by his father, who gave him a "long coat of many colors."

    Joseph is an important figure in the Bible's Book of Genesis. He was the first of the two sons of Jacob and Rachel (Jacob's twelfth child and eleventh son). He is the favorite son of the patriarch Jacob, and his jealous brothers sell him into slavery in Egypt, where he eventually ends up ...read more

    Sermon # 37 - Financial Accountability In Marriage Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 29, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,223 views

    Rev. F. Andrew Dixon If married couples can learn to handle their finances on certain principles based on God’s word, they can avoid conflict because of finances and also stay out of debt. Learn how your finances can be blessed so you can be a blessing to others.

    We read in Matthew 22:2, “The kingdom of heaven is like to a certain king, who made a marriage for his son..”(Webster) We considered this verse in one of the previous messages, to understand that the kingdom of heaven is likened to a certain king who organized marriage for his son, which implies ...read more

    The Cardinal Rule Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Oct 16, 2023
     | 2,114 views

    In this section of the Gospel of Mark, Jesus clarifies what the most important command is. It is to love God and to love others. Wholeheartedly loving God means that we love Him with all our heart, soul, mind and strength. That kind of love is illustrated in the widow's gift.

    A. Knowing what the most important rules are in any given context is very helpful. 1. What are the most important rules for the classroom? a. Listen carefully. d. Raise your hand if you have something to say. b. Keep your hands and feet to yourself. e. Show respect and kindness to your ...read more

    In Daniel 5:1-31, we see what happens when God crashes a party.

    Introduction What would happen if someone gave a party—and God crashed it? In the first verses of Daniel chapter 5, we find a description of a rather wild party thrown by a king named Belshazzar. Then we are told how his party was crashed. Right in the middle of the party, at what was probably ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 114 views

    God’s generous presence and blessing are available to us through prayer, inviting us to trust, receive, and live confidently under His open heaven.

    Some mornings feel like the sky sits low and gray, as if our prayers push against a ceiling of clouds. Bills stack, hearts ache, and strength thins out around the edges. And then we read a line of Scripture and it’s as if God opens a window and lets a fresh breeze run through the room. That’s what ...read more

    Loving The People Right Around You PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 80 views

    The sermon urges us to love God wholeheartedly and express that love through everyday acts of kindness and care for those around us.

    Some words from Jesus land in the heart like a familiar melody. They hum along in the background while you’re packing lunches, paying bills, or waiting at a red light. They are simple enough for a child to recite and strong enough to hold up a life. Mark 12:30-31 is like that. It meets us at the ...read more

    Jesus sees, calls, and transforms the overlooked and broken, offering grace and belonging to all who respond to His invitation, no matter their past.

    Friends, picture it with me: a crowded street in Jericho, hot dust swirling, elbows and shoulders jostling for a glimpse of a traveling Teacher. At the edge of that scene is a man who feels small in more ways than one. He has money that can buy him furniture but not friends, status that sparks ...read more

     | 115 views

    Trusting God, not wealth or success, leads to true flourishing, contentment, and resilience, as He faithfully cares for and delivers those who rely on Him.

    There’s a reason our hearts flutter a bit when the stock market scrolls across the screen or when the bills stack higher than the mailbox can hold. Money talks. It promises security, status, and sleep at night. Yet, like a mirage in a hot desert, it keeps moving when we move. God knows this. He ...read more

    Every generation throughout human history has struggled with its own version of the generation gap between the young and the old.
