God values every soul, judges with mercy, and calls each heart to freedom—because He takes us more seriously than we ever imagined.

1 · When Nobody Seems to Notice High school can make you feel invisible. You walk down a hallway packed with noise, and somehow nobody really sees you.

Success And Failure

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Dec 23, 2025

God allowed the Joshua and the Israelites to be defeated by the people of Ai the first time and then gave them the victory when the next time when they set things right before God. There are some godly principles we need to follow so we can have success and avoid failures in life.

Today’s meditation is based on Joshua 7:4, “So about 3,000 men from the people went up there, but they fled before the men of Ai.” (TLV) When the people of Israel were confronted with the mighty city of Jericho, they trusted God, obeyed His counsel, and thereby experienced an astounding victory. ...read more

Building The City Of God Series

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jan 30, 2026

In the city of God there is identity and there is purpose. Each one of God’s people matters, and each one of God’s people belongs. And the city of God is ours to build, if we commit ourselves to the task.

In preaching class they taught us to know our congregations, so speak to their concerns. So as I was preparing this sermon, I asked myself “What do I know about the inner city? Well, when I lived on Eliot just south of Lake St I was mugged walking from my car to my front door. When my brother lived ...read more

Answers To Questions About Marriage

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Jun 9, 2025

Natalie, age 9, said, “Don't say you love somebody and then change your mind. Love isn't like picking what movie you want to watch.” Good advice! But if you want really good advice about love and marriage, the Bible is the place to go.

There’s Always More

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 15, 2023

Even when we feel drained physically and financially, we still need to offer what resources we do have - and in so doing, find that we can do more than we thought.

I have a lot of fellow feeling for the disciples in today’s story. I expect all of us who have put so much time and effort into VBS do, too. It’s done! We can put our feet up and have something to eat, talk about how everything went, see how well we did, maybe get a stroke or two for the old ego. ...read more

Choosing The Right Path

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Oct 28, 2023

To build a life of significance is not found in earthly relationships, amassing wealth, or good health but in faith in a risen Savior. We all stand at the crossroads to either believe in Jesus and be granted adoption into His family or reject Him and forever spend eternity in hell.

Choosing the Right Path 1 Peter 2:4-10 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 t seems like all our lives we are trying to build something. Some fueled by their longing to connect, love, and receive love from others, are motivated to actively build meaningful ...read more

If You Love Me, Keep My Commands

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Nov 19, 2023

Jesus said, if you love me keep my commands. To be holy as God is holy is an impossible task for us to accomplish on our own! Thankfully, Jesus sent us a Comforter, the Holy Spirit to reveal and empower us to obey God’s commands out of love.

Since that time, they have crossed Jordan and they had only two setbacks. 1.

Rejecting Jesus Or Handling Him With Care

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Apr 12, 2022

Experiencing rejection is a normal part of life. It happens to all of us. How could a single Palm Sunday Celebration cause the religious leaders to be jealous, and envious of Jesus? What causes men to reject him?

Most of us have a bank account, at least I hope most of us do. But have you ever watched the bank teller to see what they do? Bank tellers have a rather thankless job.
