    A sermon to adults on the war that rages in all of our minds.

    “The Battle for the Mind” 6/22/25 a.m. 2 Cor. 10:1-5 I don’t think we realize the BATTLE that is being waged today. I’m NOT talking about the war in the Middle East. Iran vs. Israel. That’s definitely something that we all need to be praying about. I’m NOT talking about the war on ILLEGAL ...read more

    The Way Of Escape

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 5, 2025

    Temptation confronts every believer, but God’s faithfulness always provides an exit—grace stronger than sin, hope greater than failure.

    “No temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.” --- The Common Struggle Every believer knows what it ...read more

    While temptations are inevitable, God provides us with the strength to endure them and always offers a way out.

    Good morning, brothers and sisters in Christ. We gather today to delve into the wisdom of the Word, to explore some powerful truths found in Matthew and 1 Corinthians. As C.S. Lewis once said, "God, who foresaw your tribulation, has specially armed you to go through it, not without pain but without ...read more

    This sermon explores the concept of self-control, a fruit of the Spirit. It provides a roadmap to gaining more self-control, starting with acknowledging our problems, leaving the past behind, mastering our emotions, believing in our capacity for change, avoiding temptation, and relying on Christ's power.

    This sermon is about self-control, which is one of the fruits of the Spirit. Self-control is important because many of our problems stem from a lack of it. We often wonder why we can't lose weight, keep our house clean, or break bad habits. The answer is that we lack self-control. Our biggest ...read more

    If the devil tempted Jesus, who is God, like this, there is nothing more to say about us.

    Introduction When Jesus was baptized, the Holy Spirit descended on him in the bodily form like a dove, and a voice came from heaven: “You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased.” We expect that after this amazing event, Jesus will immediately proclaim the gospel of the kingdom of ...read more

    "and Suddenly Angels!"

    Contributed by Jody Vansickle on Feb 23, 2026
     | 48 views

    This message is about trusting in God's presence. I preached this for the 1st Sunday in Lent here in 2026, but it could be used any Sunday. Matthew reading is from the NRSV, Psalm 32 from the NLT

    “And suddenly angels…” – think about that image. • I am a Star Tek fan, so when I think about it, I imagine these angels beaming down to Jesus. • You know, their bodies are just a bunch of particle beans that suddenly become angels (and you have to have that sound effect). • I know – that’s sort of ...read more

    In the face of enormous responsibility, Jesus still cares for each of His disciples.

    1. On election night, politicians have “watch parties” in anticipation of their victories. Sometimes they last deep into the night, and sometimes they wind up quickly. Hillary Clinton’s 2016 election night watch party at the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City stretched well into ...read more

    The 6th in a series of sermons from the Book of Daniel

    Daniel: The many lures in Babel’s tacklebox (6) Text: Daniel 3:1-12 Now I think I told you all this, but I can’t remember… but Daniel chapters 2 through 7 are written in Aramaic.

    Cut It Out

    We are always trying to blame our sin on something else - on someone else, on society, on circumstances. But Jesus says that what makes us sin is part of ourselves.

    I stopped watching TV news three or four years ago. But you have to know what's going on, somehow, so there are a few sources I've come to trust. But guess what? They're just as depressing as TV news. Because what is actually happening is worse than what you might imagine if you stayed ...read more

    The President of Kenya warned President Obama not to talk about the recent decision to allow same sex marriage in the United States.

    Message: Jesus warned us that the Last Days would be like the days of Noah. People would be lost, willfully disobedient to God, refusing to turn to Him in repentance. Sadly we seem to be living in just such a world. Apart from Israel and Jesus church the rest of the world is in rebellion toward ...read more

    This sermon focuses on Jesus’ fasting and temptation in the wilderness.

    Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, "I’m starving!" Have you ever said that phrase or heard someone else say it? Most of the time, the person who says it is far from malnutrition! The human desire to eat, hunger, can at times be very strange and cause people to act very strangely. You’ve all heard ...read more
