    When Jesus Builds The Church

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 27, 2025
     | 97 views

    What It Takes to Be a Light in a Dark World. Jesus calls His church to reject comfort, silence, and spectacle, and stand strong in His presence, Spirit, and Word.

    Picture Jesus, freshly baptized, water still drying on his shoulders, the voice of the Father ringing in his soul. “You are my beloved Son.” The dove has barely taken flight. That is exactly when the devil comes calling. Nobody gets a free victory lap after baptism. The real fight often starts ...read more

    The Ache For Meaning

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 29, 2025
     | 132 views

    Every human ache for meaning is the soul remembering its Maker—God’s embrace disguised as longing, inviting us home to relationship and rest

    (When the Soul Remembers God) It began with a phone call. My oldest son’s voice was steady at first, then it trembled. He’s forty-one now—bright, competent, a systems manager for a defense company, respected by his peers. On paper, everything about his life says success. Yet that afternoon, ...read more

    No More "but Lord"

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 1, 2025
     | 120 views

    Elijah’s call on Mount Carmel still confronts us: in a world of divided hearts, choose Christ decisively before silence becomes surrender.

    1. The War No One Sees There was no trumpet, no sword, no marching army that morning on Mount Carmel. The battle Israel faced wasn’t visible—it was spiritual. It was a war for allegiance. They still attended worship. They still claimed to be God’s people. But their hearts were split between two ...read more

     | 695 views

    When we come to the faith and are baptised, we are forever held in Jesus’ arms.

    Only a few Sundays ago, I preached on the story of Jesus picking up a little child and holding him in his arms (Mark 9:30-37) St. Mark did not name the child. But guess what? A tradition in the church says the child is none other than Ignatius, a native of Syria. This is the boy who later became ...read more

     | 819 views

    As long as we live in this world, our lives are part of a greater journey—a journey of faith, hope, and purpose. When we look closely at the Christmas narrative, we realize that it is also a story of journeys.

    Christmas: A Time of Journey When we look closely at the Christmas narrative, we realize that it is also a story of journeys. Every major figure in the story of Christ's birth undertook some form of a journey. The Bible itself is filled with stories of journeys, from beginning to end. ...read more

    Cherry-Picking The Word Of God

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 8, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 920 views

    We must approach the Bible without preconceived ideas. We should let it speak for itself. The Holy Spirit never contradicts Himself. If a scripture contradicts our theology, our theology is probably wrong. As Jesus said, "The scripture cannot be broken."

    CHERRY-PICKING THE WORD OF GOD 2 Timothy 2:15 INTRODUCTION A. HUMON: 5 TIPS TO FIND A GOOD HUSBAND 1st TIP: Find a man who loves you & is loyal. 2nd TIP: “ “ “ ‘s fun & makes you laugh. 3rd TIP: “ “ hard worker, makes a good living. 4th TIP: “ “ ...read more

     | 770 views

    Jesus empowers us to stop the works of the devil. 1) temptation rejected by quoting scripture 2) Jesus is our "Advocate" as He sits at the Father's right hand to intercede 3) He has defeated Satan's grip of the fear of death by His resurrection

    In Jesus Holy Name February 9, 2025 Luke 4:33-34 “He Came…To Destroy the Works of the Devil” The title of our sermon begs for a question: What are the “works of the devil” that Jesus came to destroy? We know that Satan brings into our ...read more

    It was a time of pilgrimage and Jesus would be traveling along with many others. In our text he gathers his disciples aside and shares with them one last time what they are to expect in the future.
