    Idol Minds

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 14, 2025
     | 270 views

    Idols seduce the mind and steal the heart, but Christ alone dethrones every false god and restores true worship, freedom, and identity.

    INTRODUCTION — THE ALTAR IN THE MIND If there is one truth humanity proves in every century, in every culture, in every language, it is this: We never stop worshiping. You can strip away temples, rituals, church buildings, religious vocabulary— you can call yourself modern, enlightened, ...read more

    Whack-A-Mole

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 15, 2025
     | 238 views

    Joshua 5 shows God dismantling the inner battles that keep resurfacing, calling us from self-struggle to surrender on holy ground where victory begins.

    INTRODUCTION — THE GAME There’s a sound most of us can recognize instantly — even if it has been decades since we heard it. A ding… a buzz… a wooden mallet striking rubber. And somewhere deep inside the memory, a child’s frustration mixed with sudden triumph. Whack-A-Mole. You remember the game. ...read more

    Unfollow Me Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 23, 2025
     | 235 views

    Jesus calls us to unfollow the voices that hurt us and follow Him into peace, identity, courage, and a life of true belonging.

    There is a strange paradox in the way we speak today. We live in an age with more freedom than any previous generation — more information, more options, more mobility, more personal expression. Yet even with all this freedom, we are more anxious, more fragmented, more exhausted, and more confused ...read more

    I Once Was Lost But Now I'm Found

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 2, 2025
     | 382 views

    Identity is not found by looking inward but revealed by God. We are lost in self but found when the Father comes running.

    I will never forget the moment when someone I loved looked at me and said, “I need to find myself.” I can still remember the quality of the light in the room, the strange hush in the air, the way those four words seemed to rearrange the furniture of my life in an instant. It wasn’t loud. It wasn’t ...read more

    Murder At The Altar

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 3, 2025
     | 296 views

    The first murder at the altar exposes the danger of unsurrendered worship, but Jesus’ blood speaks mercy, transforming Cain-like hearts through grace.

    There is a sentence that sounds almost unbelievable the first time you hear it. A sentence we tend to rush past because it feels too severe, too intrusive, too revealing. But when you slow down long enough to take it seriously, it begins to open a doorway into the human heart… and into the ...read more

    When Religion Collides With Revelation

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 8, 2025
     | 248 views

    Cain and Abel reveal two spiritual systems: self-made religion or grace-filled revelation. God accepts only the worship shaped by surrender to His revealed way.

    Some of the most defining moments in Scripture arrive without fanfare. No thunder. No angels. No miracles that split seas or shake mountains. Just a simple scene, described with almost startling brevity, that quietly reveals the inner architecture of the human heart. The story of Cain and Abel in ...read more

    Contributed by Derek Geldart on Sep 6, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 645 views

    Spiritual growth is a lifelong journey of transformation empowered by God’s grace, sustained through our daily surrender to the Holy Spirit, nurtured in Christ-centered community, and aimed at becoming more like Jesus for the glory of God.

    Partners in Growth: God's Work and Our Walk 1 Corinthians 3:5-9 Last week, we began an exciting new sermon series entitled “Rooted.” Picture the scene: Jesus is seated in a boat, speaking to a large crowd gathered along the shore—many of them fishermen. To capture their hearts and minds, He ...read more

    The Harvest Of The Broken Seed: The Paradox Of A Fruitful Life

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Sep 11, 2025
     | 319 views

    This sermon unpacks the powerful paradox of John 12:24-25, teaching that like a seed that must die to bear fruit, we must surrender our lives to find true fruitfulness and life eternal.

    Introduction: The Unexpected King Let us transport ourselves to a moment thick with expectation. The city of Jerusalem is trembling with energy. Dust fills the air, mingling with the shouts of a jubilant crowd. The scent of crushed palm leaves is underfoot. It is the week of the Passover, and ...read more

    You Before Yours

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 16, 2025
     | 152 views

    God desires the giver before the gift—when we first surrender our hearts to Him, every act of generosity, including financial giving, flows joyfully and becomes an overflow of grace.

    (God wants the giver before the gift) --- Introduction – Life Stirs Up Life Before we even open our Bibles, think about something amazing. The New Testament calls the church the body of Christ. Not a building. Not bricks and mortar. You and I are the church. Every part of a body matters. ...read more

    Pouring Out My Soul

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 24, 2025
     | 224 views

    God welcomes our honest, broken prayers; when we pour out our souls, His peace meets us even before answers arrive.

    (A Conversation About Heartbreak, Prayer, and Hope) Good morning, friends. I want to invite you into a story that feels surprisingly close to home. It’s the story of Hannah, found in 1 Samuel 1. You may have read it before, but today let’s walk through it like two friends sharing life over a cup ...read more

    Hand Him Your Heart

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 8, 2025
     | 154 views

    God seeks not our money but our hearts—surrendered lives whose joyful generosity springs from grace, proving that sanctification transforms every part of us.

    Proverbs 23:26 > “My son, give me thine heart, and let thine eyes observe my ways.” That single verse is a tender invitation. God doesn’t demand—He asks. He reaches out His hand and says, “Give Me your heart.” Not your résumé, not your reputation, not your records of what you’ve given ...read more

    When My Strength Runs Out

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 15, 2025
     | 416 views

    When human strength collapses, divine life begins; Christ replaces effort with indwelling power, transforming weakness into the vessel of grace.

    Introduction — When the Tank Is Empty There comes a point in every believer’s life when the gears grind and the fuel gauge hits E. You can quote all the right verses. You can teach Sabbath School, preach a fine sermon, smile in the foyer, and still feel like your soul is running on fumes. Some ...read more

    Peace Too Late

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 15, 2025
     | 253 views

    Abner’s delayed surrender and Joab’s proud revenge reveal how pride postpones peace—but David’s mercy shows the heart of true kingship.

    Introduction – A Name That Holds Two Stories My name is David Abner—two names that once stood on opposite sides of a kingdom. One carried the harp and the crown. The other carried the sword and the seal of command. Two men, both strong, both loyal, both flawed, whose paths met too late for ...read more

    We Have Met The Enemy

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 21, 2025
     | 311 views

    True victory is not outliving opponents but surrendering self to Christ, who wins the unseen battle and grants lasting peace.

    Introduction – The Old Man with No Enemies A reporter once sat down with a man celebrating his hundredth birthday. He asked, “Sir, when you look back on a full century of life, what are you most proud of?” The old man smiled and said, “Well, I don’t have an enemy in the world.” The reporter’s ...read more

    The Cost And Reward Of Discipleship Series

    Contributed by Dean Courtier on Sep 21, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,869 views

    When Jesus called people to follow Him, He was upfront about the cost. He never promised discipleship would be easy, He promised it would be worth it.

    The cost of being a disciple of Jesus is profound. It’s a journey marked by surrender, sacrifice, and a willingness to lay down everything for the sake of following Christ. When Jesus called people to follow Him, He was upfront about the cost. He never promised that discipleship would be easy, but ...read more
