Hear A Dying Man's Last Words, Part 1 (Joshua 23:1-16) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Jan 29, 2022

Joshua has been a great leader. What are a great leader's last words to his flock?

One of the things I have to do, for biblical stories to hit me the way they should, is try to put myself into the biblical world. I try to crawl into the author's head, and make it my home. In Joshua, I try to put myself in Joshua's shoes at times. Other times, I put myself in the ...read more

The God Of Circumstances Series

Contributed by Brian Bill on Feb 21, 2022

Trust in the providence of God when you can't feel the presence of God.

Recently, someone posted a picture of me and my second-grade classmates. In case you’re wondering, I’m the burly and buff looking guy on the top left (next to the star). I noticed I’m not smiling which goes along with my thug-life, tough-guy image. This picture reminded me of an alarm system my ...read more

Martha, Lazarus, and Mary each model a discipleship verb. Together, they paint a picture of a true disciple.

Two weeks ago, everything changed in the gospel of John. Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, in the full sight of a large group of Judeans. And when the Judeans saw this, "many" gave their allegiance to Jesus. In an instant, they moved from being stubborn, and hard-hearted, and ...read more

What Are You Going To Do When The Lights Go Out?

Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Nov 23, 2020

The purpose for this message is to bring to your consideration the question, “What are you going to do when the lights go out?” In other words, are you ready for death when it comes? Are you ready to die? Are you prepared to meet your Maker?

(1 Cor 15:13 NIV) If there is no resurrection of the dead, then not even Christ has been raised. (1 Cor 15:14 NIV) And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith. (1 Cor 15:15 NIV) More than that, we are then found to be false witnesses about God, for we have ...read more

Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Dec 31, 2020

The church is asleep and as a result, is missing out on the glory of Christ.

In John 1:14 we find the words, “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” John writes, “and we beheld His glory…” Can you, like John, say that you have beheld the glory of Jesus?

Passing Through Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Aug 8, 2021

The "crisis" at the border is not a Republican or Democrat problem, a conservative or liberal, progressive or libertarian problem … it is a “human” problem … and my goal today is to get you to stop thinking of this as a political issue and start looking at it from a Christian perspective.

Roughly 250 people show up at our southern border every day in the hopes of either legally or illegally entering our country. We have a big problem. ...read more

Who Cares? Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Aug 22, 2021

Has our prosperity made us so oblivious and so apathetic that we are no longer willing to leave our pleasures long enough to protect and heal the nation that so many others have sacrificed to give us? Even if America has reached that point, we Christians must rise above the apathy around us.
