    Arrested Series

    Contributed by Tim White on May 11, 2014
     | 6,290 views

    The enemies of the cross at Jesus' arrest show us strong lessons about the Kingdom of Christ.

    When we hear the word, “arrested”, we think of criminals. Criminals are an unusual sort, as far as I can tell. I hear tell of a set of criminal brothers who did all sorts of crime. As a matter of fact, if a crime occurred in this small community, one, if not both, of these boys had ...read more

    The Sermon assures of victory over the forces of evil.

    In our text, Jesus used the terms gates and hell to refer to the powers of evil forces and the physical death. Jesus taught his followers that they were to confront the gates of hell. Christ spoke these words in Caesarea Phillippi, a pagan city that was filled with moral corruption. History ...read more

    Much like a circus tent move from town to town, so does Jesus "tabernacle" with us. What happens when we lean a bit further into three key events in Jesus’ life when He did move about on this earth? What might that tell us about God? His love? You and

     | 3,748 views

    Like guardrails and protective barriers around potential dangers, so the writer to the Hebrews attempts to safeguard our Christian walk by noting potential dangers to our Christian life--among them apostate religious institutions

    I’m a big fan of Yellowstone National Park, not only because of the great fishing it offers, but also because of the great natural wonders that can be seen. Of course, some of its most famous natural wonders are found in its geyser basins, where Old Faithful can be found among many others, along ...read more

    "I Am The Good Shepherd” – He Laid Down His Life - John 10 – Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 2, 2022
     | 3,232 views

    Part 2 of "I am the Good Shepherd" looks at what the good shepherd does and then Jesus as the Good Shepherd. Then we examine Jesus as The Sacrificial Shepherd who gave His life to save the sheep. To close, Jesus is the Chief Shepherd.

    “I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD” – HE LAID DOWN HIS LIFE - John 10 – PART 2 The study of the great “I AMs” of John’s Gospel is so lovely as we look at the Person and Ministry of our Lord Jesus. In all His offices He is serving His Church and all the individuals in the Church. Those are termed sheep, and ...read more

    based on 17 ratings
     | 4,689 views

    Creating a house of prayer often brings disruption and disturbance to a lifestyle that is unacceptable to the Lord. How do we respond to or resist Him?

    Holy Week Service Church of the Atonement March 21, 2005 “A Place of Prayer” Matthew 21:10-17 INTRODUCTION: The next day after the trimphal entry into Jerusalem, Jesus went to the temple. What he found there was anything but a house of prayer. Picture in your mind the confusion with all the ...read more

    A Stone, A Veil And A Door

    based on 40 ratings
     | 4,773 views

    Jesus wants us to roll away the stone of doubts and fear, then he will tear the veil that keeps us separated from Him, and then He will give us an open door into eternal life.

    A Stone, A Veil and A Door By Pastor Jim May The Stone: John 11:38-40, "Jesus therefore again groaning in himself cometh to the grave. It was a cave, and a stone lay upon it. Jesus said, Take ye away the stone. Martha, the sister of him that was dead, saith unto him, Lord, by this time he ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,655 views

    Being a good Samaritan is more than being religious. It is doing something when you don't know what to do. It is giving to those you do not know. It is being Christ-like disciples.

    Text: Ephesians 4: 29 – 32 “Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.

    "My Good Shepherd”

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,555 views

    In John 10 Jesus reaffirms that He is fulfilling Ezekiel 34. Psalm 23 is a Psalm that touches a deep place within our souls. Why would Jesus compare Himself to a “shepherd” if in His own culture the role of the “shepherd” was a profession that was rejected?

    In Jesus Holy Name April 21, 2024 Text: Psalm 23:1-3, John 10:11 Redeemer “My Good Shepherd” Psalm 23, may be the most familiar and favorite of all the psalms. The affirmation of God as our good shepherd implies a truth that touches a deep place within our souls. “Even ...read more

    A Prayer God Hears

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Oct 24, 2019
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,708 views

    Jesus shows two very different prayer styles, and in so doing, reveals two very different heart styles. One will enter the kingdom of heaven; one won't. Our prayer life should reflect humility throughout.

    Luke 18:9-14 A Prayer God Hears Last week we looked at a parable where Jesus taught us to be persistent in our prayers: pray always, never give up, and above all, keep the faith! Today, in the very next passage in the Bible, Jesus makes a different point: he really points to the very crux of our ...read more

    The story of Elijah, his success and his fear. His false assumption that he is all alone. How God spoke to him and to us in a gentle whisper. Today we hear the gentle whisper of the Gospel.

    Text: 1 Kings 19:9-18; and Matthew 14:22-33 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Amen.
