    After a year off for Covid, God is signaling the Church that it's time to get moving again; we've been camped in one spot too long. The trumpet is sounding, "Rise up! It's time to move!"

     | 6,454 views

    What Happens to Christians when they die? Is there an afterlife? How do one prepare for it? How is one certain of resurrection?

    “PRECIOUS IN THE SIGHT OF THE LORD IS THE DEATH OF HIS SAINTS” (PS. 116:15) Death is the one thing we are most certain of, yet most ill-prepared. Is there an afterlife? How do one prepare for it? How is one certain of resurrection? All cultures have shown interest in life after death. Egyptians ...read more

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 2, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,040 views

    Prayer is not a monologue but a conversation between us and God. Those in contact with God have vision, they have a power within that can change people around them, they have authority with God and insight into what God is doing.

    WHY PRAY? INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: THE PASTOR’S PRAYER. 1. A Sunday School teacher was struggling to open the combination lock on the supply cabinet. He couldn't quite remember the combination. Finally, he went to the pastor and asked for help. The pastor came and began to turn the dial. ...read more

    What Difference Does The Resurrection Make? Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021
     | 2,813 views

    Pagans expected nothing to happen after a person dies. Jews expected the faithful to be resurrected at the end of time. And Christians have felt that not only has Christ risen from the grave but His resurrection guarantees His follower's resurrection.

    Happy Resurrection Day to Cross Church! Maybe you grew up thinking miracles happened a long time ago, if at all. Over the course of the next few weeks, we’ll introduce you to both ancient miracles and modern ones. But if you’re looking for a miracle, you need not look any further than the empty ...read more

     | 2,210 views

    Isn’t Advent a time of expectation and preparation? Doesn’t Advent challenge us to make changes in our lives? ... Didn’t David write this Psalm expressing remorse as well as the hunger for righteousness that only God could give him? Do we have that yearning in common with David?

    Remember O Lord, Your Great Mercy Text: Psalm 25 Psalm 25:1-10  Of David. To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul.  (2)  O my God, in you I trust; do not let me be put to shame; do not let my enemies exult over me.  (3)  Do not let those who wait for you be put to shame; let ...read more

    Stewards Of The Mysteries

    Contributed by Charles Scott on Aug 14, 2016
     | 6,057 views

    Paul doesn’t describe himself as a clergyman. He describes himself as servant and steward. The servant role indicated hard lowly work. The steward role was carefully administering the Gospel mystery: God in Christ reconciling the world to Himself

    These men were not ready to be trusted with the tender things of the Lord. Jesus knew it was not time for the disciples to teach the truths which would soon come to the infant body of believers called "the church."

    TITLE: CAN YOU KEEP A SECRET SCRIPTURE: ST. MATTHEW 16:13:20 I am sure we all have that one family member that we know whenever a secret needs to be kept, make sure you don’t tell them.
