Why Jesus Had To Suffer Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 1, 2024

For Jesus to be the “the Lamb of God” meant the Messiah HAD TO suffer. Yet, to think that the Messiah would suffer was as preposterous as thinking you could swim across the Atlantic.

Our series is devoted to enabling you to place your faith in the Lord Jesus. I invite you to find John 1 with me. Remember, John’s gospel was written in order that you would believe in Jesus Christ. That you would trust in Jesus. The word “believe” appears more than seventy times throughout the ...read more

Legalism Exposed Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on May 6, 2024

This exposition of Romans 4:13-16 addresses the problem of trying to attain righteousness through good works. The law was given to expose our sinfulness and lead us to Christ for salvation. The deception of legalism is a problem that must be addressed.

Intro Our text today is Romans 4:13-16: “It was not through the law that Abraham and his offspring received the promise that he would be heir of the world, but through the righteousness that comes by faith. 14 For if those who depend on the law are heirs, faith means nothing and the promise is ...read more

The Idols That Make Us Idle

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jul 7, 2022

I want to ask each Christian today two questions:

(1) Can the children of God sin? Yes! (2) Can the children of God sin and get away with it? No! Did you know the children of God are just as capable of sinning as they were before they were saved? We have an excellent example of that in the life of King David. WHO WAS KING DAVID? If all the ...read more

Called Into Righteousness Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Aug 19, 2022

To counter false belief to show how someone is Called into Righteousness, it changes one’s understanding of their 1) Relationships (Romans 3:1-2), 2) Responsibility (Romans 3:3-4) and their 3) Righteousness (Romans 3:5-8)

Romans 3:1–8. Then what advantage has the Jew? Or what is the value of circumcision? 2 Much in every way. To begin with, the Jews were entrusted with the oracles of God. 3 What if some were unfaithful? Does their faithlessness nullify the faithfulness of God? 4 By no means! Let God be true though ...read more

Thursday - An Evening Full Of Surprises Series

Contributed by David Owens on Mar 28, 2022

Thursday evening was full of surprises as Jesus ate the Passover meal with His disciples. During the evening, Jesus washed their feet, and announced that one of them would betray Him, another would deny Him, and all of them would desert Him. They must have thought He was kidding, but He wasn't!

A. If you know me very well, then you know that I like to laugh and joke. 1. This Friday is April Fools Day, so I thought I might share a few April Fools’ funnies. 2.

Drop It Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Apr 3, 2022

I stand before you this morning a condemned man … every bit as guilty as that poor woman caught in the act of adultery. I don’t know whether or not Jesus wrote their sins in the sand but He certainly knows my many sins and I do know that my sins were swept away that day on the cross.

[Pick up little stone.] Yeah … there’s been a lot of jokes about the risk I’m taking by handing out stones before the sermon. Look at the stone in your hand. Yeah … getting hit by a rock this size could hurt … especially if it hit me in the head or hit me in the eye or something, amen? I guess ...read more

¿por Qué No Te Levantas Y Andas? PRO Sermon

Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 26, 2025

Jesus meets us in our stuck places, inviting us to trust Him, refuse despair, and step forward in faith toward healing and new life.

Some of us walked in today smiling on the outside and stuck on the inside. We know how to look fine, but deep down we feel like that man by the pool—stalled, sidelined, and silently counting the years. We carry mats of memory—old disappointments, long habits, lingering hurts—and we wonder, Will ...read more
