    Teaching Obedience To The Next Generation

    Saul hides behind his religion. Mafia hitmen rationalize, “Yes, I kill people but I’m really good to my mother.” We are incredibly good at self-deception. People hide behind their religion to evade obedience

    Today, I want to speak to parents and grandparents on raising children who have a stalwart character all their lives. Let’s look at one of the most interesting kings of ancient Israel, King Saul. Today’s Scripture The word of the Lord came to Samuel: 11 “I regret that I have made Saul king, for ...read more

    Philip & The Ethiopian Eunuch

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 22, 2021
     | 6,690 views

    God works strategically so that all races are included. God is working to populate heaven with all kinds of color. The Holy Spirit wants us to move past the barrier of the races.

    We love to tell the “before and after” stories. Weight loss - I lost 100 pounds! Before and after for dental cosmetics commercials. Rogaine – I have hair! Or look at this one: meet my wife’s first husband (show picture of younger me) -:). Acts loves to tell “before and after” stories as well. Only ...read more

     | 7,073 views

    God calls those whom he can use and who are faithful even in areas where they feel weak.

    INTRODUCTION • Life can be full of irony. • When things happen in life, sometimes all we can do is scratch our heads. • Life is ironic, and God loves irony. • Here are a few funny examples of irony: “The most shoplifted book in America is The Bible.” • “According to researchers, duct tape should ...read more

    what is God's vision for His Church and how does He bring this about?

    One Body: An Exposition of Ephesians 4:1-16 One of my favorite hymns is “The Church’s One Foundation.” Christians share a common confession that Jesus Christ is Lord. He is the foundation of our faith. The writer goes on to say that the Church has been chosen from among all different nations over ...read more

     | 1,872 views

    Here are the notes and reseach I developed into a message on the trinity. Ends with the importance of experience each part of the trinity.

    Note: This is a message I preached on the Trinity. Much of the notes came from research online and reviewing sermons from sermon central. I don't claim this as my own but wanted to share as a message developed. The last point is all original. Title: The Trinity – Enjoying 2 Corinthians ...read more

    Gathering For Encouragement Series

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Aug 2, 2021
     | 5,417 views

    Hebrews 12:1 tells us to 'run with endurance'. Only long races need endurance - marathons, for example. In a marathon, encouragement makes all the difference. The Christian life can be tough. We need encouragement and we need to encourage others.

    Today we’re starting a new series. We will have four talks on the theme of ‘Why we gather’. Last Sunday we met back at church after sixteen months of having our morning services online. That’s a significant moment. But something else has been happening. About four months ago we started a new ...read more

    The Faithfulness Of God

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Aug 2, 2021
     | 3,366 views

    What greater advantage in life could one ask for than to possess the writings of God and possess the prophets, priests and scribes whose duty it was to explain, proclaim, and transmit them to the people?

    Alba 8-1-2021 THE FAITHFULNESS OF GOD Romans 3:1-8 Doesn't it seem that there are people who are born with special advantages over others? Some seem to be born with the proverbial silver spoon in their mouth. Somehow, that sounds uncomfortable. But I think it would be better than having ...read more

    Working through the Gospel of Luke using consecutive expository preaching.

    “The Parable of the Soils” Luke 8:4-21 A sermon for 8/8/21 Pastor John Bright This is such an easy parable because Jesus explains the meaning - easy peezy lemon squeezy! Or is it?

    Often people are brought together because they have a common interest.

    • SOME ARE SPORT FANS. Thousands gather in large stadiums across this nation because they all have the same interest in a particular sport. • SOME ARE MUSIC FANS.

    The Church

     | 2,543 views

    In the year 2002, the Catholic church has come under fire by the news media because of the corruption in the Catholic priesthood.

    Those who have studied the history of this church have known something about this corruption for many years. For example, some of the problems today we are hearing about are: (1) THE HOMOSEXUAL PROBLEM IN THE PRIESTHOOD On the Fox News Channel, on “The Factor,” they reported that about 50% of ...read more

    Always Remain Watchful Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 26, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,278 views

    The two parables here serve to caution us about slacking off in kingdom work. We need to keep our waist girded and be ready for service; and be alert and watchful at all times, so we don’t miss opportunities to share the love of Christ.

    This evening’s message is entitled “Always Remain Watchful,” and it’s taken from two short parables commonly called “The Parable of the Faithful and Evil Servant” and “The Parable of the Thief.” In these two short parables Jesus spoke a word about faithfulness; the kind of faithfulness that leads ...read more

    Justification By Faith: Two Examples Series

    Contributed by James Jackson on Mar 27, 2022
     | 3,216 views

    Up to this point in Romans, Paul has been pretty academic and intellectual. But now, he puts skin on the truth that justification is by faith alone.

    One of my favorite movies is Steven Spielberg’s Catch Me If You Can. It’s the true story of a lifelong con man named Frank Abegnale who, over the course of his career posed as an airline pilot, a medical doctor, a lawyer, and a college professor, all the while passing millions of dollars in ...read more

     | 2,212 views

    In the previous sermon we talked about the signs of the end times. Some folks do not enjoy studying the signs of His coming.

    Illus: Listen, when I go down the road and I see a sign that tells me there is a sharp curve up ahead or a steep hill, I find these signs helpful. But sometimes signs are confusing. Illus: Two preachers are standing by the side of the road, holding up a sign that reads, “The End is Near! Turn ...read more

    Sometimes it is difficult to make a very good impression.

    Illus: An actor went to see a new agent one day and said, “You must have a look at my act; it really is innovative.” The agent gave him the nod, so he flew up to the ceiling, circled the room a few times and landed smoothly on the agent's desk. The agent said, “So you do bird ...read more
