Taking on a new year by doing my best! I will never forget Field Day at Elementary school!

Sermon - The Believers Perspective - Take The Long View

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jan 29, 2025

Our perspective is the lens at which we view life and most importantly God’s role in our life. God is good all the time. Too many Christians define God’s goodness by their circumstances rather than Who God actually is.

Sermon. The Believers Perspective - Take The Long View Scripture - Habakkuk 1:1-6 “This is the message that the prophet Habakkuk received in a vision. How long, O Lord, must I call for help?

Take And Eat - Mark 14:22-26 Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on May 4, 2024

Why do some verses in the Bible make our relationship with God sound conditional, and other verses make it sound unconditional? The answer to that question is the key to understanding the gospel and having the closest, most intimate relationship with God possible.

Pride Month? Take Back Your Manhood!

Contributed by Eduardo Quintana on Jun 24, 2023

“Where are all the real men?” is regular fare for talk shows and new books. You asked them to be women, I want to say. The result is a gender confusion never experienced at such a wide level in the history of the world.”

The most elemental aspect of our identity is being challenged today. In an effort to confuse humanity and draw us away from a relationship with our Creator, Satan has launched a major assault against the family. The attack comes in the form of unbiblical ideas about the roles of men and women and ...read more

How Do I Take Up My Cross?

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Mar 28, 2009

This sermon looks at both what it means, and also what it does not mean, for us to take up our cross for Jesus.

Jesus said to his disciples and to the crowd following him, “If anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross and follow me” (8:34). It’s hard for us to hear those words in the same way that those following Jesus heard it. The context is that Peter has just recognised that ...read more

Taking Care Of What God Has Given Us

Contributed by Travis L. Billings on Sep 28, 2020

God is not only concerned with what is created, he is concerned with how we take care of what was created. Nehemiah began moving from the building project itself, to taking the necessary steps to insure that what was built (or created) would be protected and preserved.

When he arrived, Nehemiah inherited leadership over three distinct groups of returnees to the land: • The returnees from 536-516 BCE, who lived and worked under Zerubbabel the governor, and were chastised by Haggai the prophet to get the work finished. • The returnees from 458 BCE, who came to the ...read more
