    Jerusalem Alone Series

    The story of a 12 year-old boy left behind in Jerusalem by his parents? Sound familiar? Almost sounds like a Christmas classic movie! Not exactly. This is the story of the Son of God, knowing who he was and why he was here.

    As I read through the account from Luke 2 which you heard this morning of how Jesus was left behind by his parents in Jerusalem, I couldn’t help but think of what has become classic Christmas movie, “Home Alone.” If you’re not familiar with the movie, it’s about a boy around the age of 10-12 ...read more

    "all I Want For Christmas Is A Savior” Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Dec 19, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,106 views

    A perspective of the OT prophets. They waited for centuries before this would be fulfilled.

    “All I want for Christmas is a Savior” Micah 5:1-2 and Isaiah 7:14 It is hard to imagine that Christmas is now just three weeks away. Three short weeks. It’s that time of year when people start asking the question-hey-what do you want for Christmas and someone may respond by saying “well, all I ...read more

    The Power Of Faith

    Contributed by James Snyder on Jan 15, 2018
     | 11,523 views

    When I begin to understand the power of faith, I begin to appreciate what the Christian life is really all about.

    Some people like to refer to themselves as a man or woman of faith. Yet, if you query them along that subject you discover they have no idea what a man or woman of faith is. Faith has become just a word we use when thinking of somebody who is religious. Their faith is rooted in their religion. ...read more

    Romans 12:4-5 - Part 3 Series

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on May 10, 2018
     | 3,970 views

    In Romans 12:4-5 we saw that we are all interconnected members of the Body of Christ. In verses 6-8 we see that members of the body receive gifts in order to use them to meet the needs of others. Both the gifted and the receiver must be present for this.

    Please stand as we read or recite our memory Scripture for this quarter ... Romans 12:4-5 “Just as each of us has one body with many members, and these members do not all have the same function, so in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member belongs to all the others.” ...read more

    A Song For The Future

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Dec 18, 2014
     | 5,493 views

    Our future is unveiled to God. God prepares for our future.

    It is interesting to note that the last assignment God has for Moses is for him to write down a song; and to teach it to the people and have them sing it. • Why? Because they will need it. • God foresees what will happened and prepares what the people will need. 1. OUR FUTURE IS ...read more

    Before The Harvest

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Jan 12, 2015

     | 5,989 views

    The wheat and the weeds, then, grow side by side – and will, until the harvest. Then, according to Jesus, there will be a separation.

    This is a simple tale, isn’t it? Or, so it seems. But there’s actually more to Jesus’ story than meets the eye. If you and I were to look down the page just a few verses, what we would find is Jesus’ explanation of this parable and what it means. As he lays it out, he ...read more

    Who am I? Where am I going? Paul answers those questions when he addresses the Corinthian Christians.

    Have you heard of these new tech gadgets called Google Home and Amazon Echo? They are described as hands-free speakers that do your bidding. If you want some quiet music, for example, you just have to say, “Play bedtime music for an hour,” and it will do that. If you want to know who ...read more

    Caught Up, But When? Imminence Series

    Contributed by Bob Faulkner on May 20, 2015
     | 3,144 views

    Will Jesus come at just any minute now? A seriously important question?

    5. IMMINENCE ‘"Jesus could come at any time." I know what the people who say this mean, but we must take objection to that statement as it stands. In fact, Heaven has a day circled on the Heavenly Calendar when Jesus must come. [Acts 17:31, (God) has appointed a day in which He will ...read more

    Can A Man Resist God Almighty? Series

    Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Dec 15, 2015
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,926 views

    Can a man resist God's laws? Can he resist God's grace? Two different questions...

    Can a man resist God? Now that too, on the surface, seems like an easy question to answer. God’s Word has been published lo these many years. The Judaeo-Christian value system has been proclaimed all over. Why, the very creation cries out about who God is and how He ought to be feared! ...read more

    "What If No One Told The Story?"

    Contributed by David Henderson on Dec 22, 2015

     | 4,354 views

    There is a danger that we have become so familiar with the story of Jesus that we begin to think everyone is.

    What if no one told the Story? Luke 2:8-20 Surveys are done on just about every subject now. One was taken with church members asking then which character in the Christmas story they most identified with. Mary? Joseph? The shepherds? The wise men? Most people who answered the question said ...read more

    Joy Series

    Contributed by Lynn Malone on Jan 10, 2016
     | 13,798 views

    God created us as emotional beings, yet even our emotions should come into captivity to Christ. This message on joy is the first in a series on human emotions.

    Back in the summer, Disney’s Pixar Studios hit yet another home run with the film Inside Out. The film enters the mind of eleven-year-old Riley, and personifies five dominant emotions: Joy, Sadness, Anger, Fear, and Disgust. The five characters in Riley’s head, led by Joy, man a control ...read more

    Jesus’ Final Instructions, Part 1

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Sep 15, 2015
     | 6,217 views

    Jesus went to heaven to prepare a place for us to go to when we go to our heavenly home. Going home fulfills the longing we have for God. Only God can fulfill the emptiness of our souls.

    “Let not your hearts be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go to prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to myself; that where I ...read more
