Peter's Second Conversion Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 9, 2021

I want you to watch for two conversions in our story today – a conversion for both Cornelius and for Peter. Each man had a powerful turning point and each man had a powerful story they would tell around campfires for years to come.

Acts 10:27-47 is read before the sermon. There’s a powerful story tucked away in the middle chapters of Acts. Our story tantalizes us with angels & visions but at it’s essence it is the story about our 2 main characters to today’s story, Cornelius & Peter. Cornelius represents the power ...read more

Knowing Your Assignment.

Contributed by Howard Strickland on Feb 1, 2023

Un-forgiveness is like a Beaver Dam, it backs up the waste and debris of past events. Un-forgiveness stops the flow, nothing fresh can enter. Life in general becomes tainted.

Resurrection Series

Contributed by Rob O'neal on Apr 6, 2016

Women hoping to tend to Jesus’ body went to his tomb. The stone closing the entrance was rolled aside. They met an angel announcing that Jesus had been raised from the dead. This event set in motion our own final salvation.

Easter started in darkness. Jesus had been buried quickly but compassionately after he died on Friday afternoon. With permission from the Roman governor, Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus, two Jewish religious leaders who quietly followed Jesus, took Jesus’ body down from the cross, carried ...read more

Measure Upon Measure – Separation – The Restoration Of God - Part 4 Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 22, 2025

In this continuing study of the Restoration of God, we look at what sin ruined, the results of that; how the Lord identified with those results, and now what God has restored. This time our theme is SEPARATION. We look at what God restored – union and communion and fellowship.

MEASURE UPON MEASURE – SEPARATION – THE RESTORATION OF GOD - Part 4 It is hard to split this Second Consequence of man’s sin to make two messages.
