    The last of Luke's four songs celebrating the incarnation of Christ is the Song of Simeon. The righteous priest long anticipated the birth of the one who would bring salvation to the Jews and to the whole world.

    Introduction Well, I was really thinking about another carol for all of us to sing together this morning but I thought maybe I would give you a break. The only reason is because I want your voices rested so you can join us for caroling at the Golden Living Center and Bristol Manor after church ...read more

    Why did the four fishermen follow Jesus? They desired things to be made right in the kingdom of God, and they wanted their lives to count. How is God calling us? The time to respond is NOW.

    JESUS CALLING—Mark 1:14-20 ***Have you heard this riddle? “A man walks into a bar and asks the bartender for a glass of water. The bartender pulls out a gun and points it at the man with a menacing look. The man says, ‘Thank you,’ and walks out. What is going on?” It all makes sense, when you ...read more

    Palm Sunday, often overshadowed by Resurrection Sunday, holds four key significances. It also poses a question - how do we react when Jesus enters our lives?

    Palm Sunday is often overlooked because it is overshadowed by Resurrection Sunday. However, it holds significant importance for four reasons. Additionally, it is important to consider how we respond when Jesus approaches our lives. Palm Sunday is mentioned in all four gospels: Matthew 21:1-11, Mark ...read more

    The Anonymous Apostles And The World’s Worst Traitor (Matthew 10:1-4)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 9, 2025
     | 296 views

    Our look at the Twelve apostles concludes with the last four on the list - James the Less, Simon the Zealot, Jude Thaddeus, and the apostle who threw his calling away, Judas Iscariot.

    When we look at the lives of the twelve men whom Jesus chose to be His apostles, we need to make a notation. None of these men would be known today except for the fact that Jesus chose to pull them out from obscurity and ordinary situations. None of them were of renown or any type of prominence. ...read more

    Some people like to complain about everything. The Bible warns us, the believers, not to complain/grumble. Why? This sermon gives four reasons why complaining/grumbling is a serious sin.

    Illustration: A man walked into a hardware store and asked for a chain saw advertised to cut six trees in an hour. He came back the next day fussing and complaining, "This chainsaw is defective. It would only cut 1 tree and it took ALL DAY!" The salesman said, "Let me look at ...read more

    Give Your Life Away Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022
     | 2,035 views

    There are at least four core commitments for Christian living: (1) abide in the Word, (2) pray your heart out, (3) be killing sin, and (4) give your life away.

    Our lives tell a story—a story about who we are and what we value, where we’ve come from and where we’re going, what we want and what we’ll do to get it. And what most of us do is, we make “the story” of our lives about us. But God makes “the story” of our lives about Christ. Someone has said, ...read more

    I have a question for you. How many of you can recall a favorite teacher that you have ever had either in elementary school, high school, or college? Easily.

    In Acts twenty-four we find the apostle Paul is being held in custody as a common criminal, waiting for his accusers to arrive, and is to appear before Antonius Felix, the governor of Judaea.

    Felix was a politician in every sense of the word. He had risen from being a subservient person, to the position of Governor of Judaea. He got his start through the influence of his brother at the imperial court of Claudius. He married three Princesses, which also elevated his career. The first ...read more

    Jesus did not call us to stay safe within four walls; He called us to go out, to be His witnesses, and to bring the light of the Gospel to every corner of the earth.

    For many, church has become a comfortable place—a sanctuary where we find peace, encouragement, and fellowship. But Jesus never intended the church to be a final destination. Instead, He envisioned it as a dynamic launching pad, a place that equips, empowers, and sends believers into the world to ...read more
