    Glory Days Are Now

    Contributed by Ed Lu on Apr 21, 2023
     | 1,644 views

    God desires our wholehearted devotion so that He can make us into wholesome Christians.

    Gonna let you into my world a little. My approach with each preaching assignment is to ask God for a heart of solemnity, a mind of sobriety, and with the goal to achieve solidarity with the people whom I share my message with. I tell you this because I want you to join with me in the manner of how ...read more

    This time of the year we are told that the Palm Readers do their greatest amount of business.

    That should not surprise us!!! People are going to them to see what this coming year holds for them. Of course this is a waste of time and money because no man knows what the future holds. Palm reading is a practice that involves interpreting the lines and shapes of one’s hand to predict their ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,436 views

    All of us may experience people who we love and count on, walking away for any number of reasons. The Lord will not abandon us. Let us examine the life of Demas and see what lessons we can learn from his departure.

    Sermon – Lessons from Demas Scripture Lesson - 2 Timothy 4:9-18 “Timothy, please come as soon as you can. Demas has deserted me because he loves the things of this life and has gone to Thessalonica. Crescens has gone to Galatia, and Titus has gone to Dalmatia. Only Luke is with me.

    Forever Thankful PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 9, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 194 views

    The sermon emphasizes that faith and obedience invite God’s mercy, and gratitude transforms healing into wholeness, calling us to thankful, faithful living each day.

    Some of us came in today carrying silent stories. The kind that follow you into the pew and sit beside you. A late-night worry that won’t let you sleep. A relationship that seems stuck in the storm. A diagnosis that rewrites your calendar. If you’ve ever felt on the fringe, if you’ve ever whispered ...read more

    Sermon On The Amount

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 15, 2025
     | 415 views

    Tithing and Sabbath-keeping are not payments for God’s favor but grace-filled acts of worship—joyful, concrete responses to the God who first loved, first gave, and continues to work in us.

    (God’s call on our time and tithe) Introduction – The Heart Before the Numbers You’ve heard of the Sermon on the Mount. This morning, I want to talk about the Sermon on the Amount. Now, don’t confuse that with a sermon based on the size of the offering. A pastor once faced a stifling summer ...read more

     | 232 views

    We are here again to celebrate God’s gift to the church. A pastor is like a watchman because both are spiritual guardians who are vigilant, provide warnings, and speak God's word to protect their community.

    Sermon: Celebrating God’s Watchman Scripture: Isaiah 21:11-12 “The burden of Dumah. He calleth to me out of Seir, Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?

    When David allows a vacuum to grow in the nation’s leadership, Joab is forced to build a siege ramp to deal with the problem
