    Praying From Victory (Praying From The New Covenant) Series

    Contributed by Christabel N. Onuoha on Apr 21, 2023
     | 3,017 views

    The cross of Jesus Christ and His resurrection changed everything FOREVER! To know this is power. The strength of the enemy’s power over the believer is only to the extent of the knowledge of Christ and His finished work that you know.

    Notice from my topic I did not say, Praying FOR victory, I said, Praying FROM victory. This is critical to underscore because, often times believers come to God in prayer with the notion or mentality of praying in order to obtain victory in the area of their need. This is not a New Testament or the ...read more

    If you want to see Jesus this Holy Week, go to the place of death and service. Find life in death. Find honor is service, because there you find Jesus Christ.

    It was the depression. The father was able to keep bread on the table, but that was it. When his little boy burst into the house excitedly talking about the circus coming to town, the father knew that he could not afford the $1 admission. The boy had never seen the circus and it wasn’t right that a ...read more

    Servant Of All

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Sep 19, 2024
     | 1,030 views

    Jesus lived out and taught us how to become great in the Kingdom of God. We not only deny ourselves, pick up our cross and follow Jesus, but humble ourselves to become servant to all.

    WHEN WE THINK OF SERVICE TO OTHERS AND ALL THE POSSIBLE WAYS TO ENGAGE OUR ABILITIES, I READ A RATHER HUMOROUS WAY OF LOOKING AT THIS WHICH SAID, ““IF YOU THINK YOU ARE TOO SMALL TO BE EFFECTIVE, YOU HAVE NEVER BEEN IN BED WITH A MOSQUITO.” HOWEVER, ON A MORE SERIOUS NOTE, I LIKE THE WORDS OF JOHN ...read more

     | 174 views

    Three crosses stood on Golgotha. Two guilty thieves hung beside Jesus. One died forgiven. The other died lost. Their choice shows salvation's power and God's unlimited mercy.

    The Dying Thief Finds Paradise Introduction Three crosses stood on Golgotha that day. The middle cross held the Son of God. The other two held guilty men. Both thieves knew they deserved death. Roman law had caught them. Roman nails pierced their hands and feet. But something changed on those ...read more

    Breaking Cultural Barriers In Evangelism Series

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Mar 17, 2025
     | 610 views

    Cultural barriers should never stop us from spreading the gospel. Jesus died for all people, and His message must reach every tribe, language, and nation. As believers, we must be intentional in overcoming cultural prejudices, adapting our evangelistic methods, and relying on the Holy Spirit.

    BREAKING CULTURAL BARRIERS IN EVANGELISM By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Acts 10:34-35 "Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with ...read more

    Palm Sunday: The triumphal entry of Jesus into Jerusalem was one of those moments. It was a turning point—not just for Jesus’ earthly ministry, but for all of humanity.

    The Name You Can Rely On Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Sep 2, 2025
     | 422 views

    Jesus stepped in, not to handle something minor, but to take on our greatest need—our separation from God. His sacrifice doesn’t just make life “nicer.” It changes everything. Do you see Jesus as someone who did you a small favor or as your Savior who paid your greatest debt?

    Several decades ago, Gary Campman wrote about five love languages. They are words of affirmation, quality time, physical touch, acts of service, and receiving gifts. These five love languages describe different ways people give and receive love. Each of us has a primary love language, and often, ...read more

     | 3,047 views

    Had you gone to Jerusalem that day so long ago, and had you gone just outside the wall to the north, out through the Damascus gate, there you would have seen a rocky hill. And on that hill, you would have seen three crosses, with three men on those crosses.

    Good morning to Cross Church and happy Palm Sunday to you. Turn to Luke 23 with me this morning. The universal symbol of Christianity is the cross, the old rugged cross. While the empty tomb is the foundation of Christianity, the cross is the focus of Christianity. And while I cannot take all of ...read more

    The Forgotten Tree

    Contributed by John Gaston on Dec 15, 2021
     | 3,292 views

    The Christmas Tree has become the main symbol of Christmas; baby Jesus has little connection to it. God's Christmas Tree is the Cross of Calvary. God hung His gift on it -- His Son Jesus. I put up a 5-ft. cross with Christmas lights on it.

    THE FORGOTTEN TREE 1 Pet. 2:24 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. In one Dennis the Menace cartoon, Dennis rushes into the living room. His mother is standing there with her mouth open and Dennis is holding a large box. 2. He announces with a loud voice, “We’d better tell Santa Claus to forget about ...read more

    What Was He Thinking

    Contributed by Karl Eckhoff on Aug 30, 2002
    based on 119 ratings
     | 10,045 views

    When a cross or trial comes our way we’re often left wondering like Peter, "What was He thinking when He allowed this to come on me?" However, Jesus’ own cross story helps us to see that in the midst of it all, He’s still thinking of you and me.

    Pentecost 15 A Matthew 16:21-26 What Was He Thinking? 09/01/02 There’s a television commercial currently running that shows a guy going off a tall waterfall in a kayak. He’s screaming all the way to the bottom as he bounces off rocks along the canyon wall and finishes his plunge into the waters ...read more

    The biblical story of the crossing of the Red Sea is so obvious the skeptics can’t believe it and we mustn’t overlook it.

    OPENING: At the entrance to a one lane bridge in Sonoma Calif.: "When this sign is under water, this road is impassable." APPLICATION: Why does that seem so silly? Probably because it’s so obvious. If the water was up that far you couldn’t read sign anyway! The world’s can often be like that - ...read more
