    Paul's second prayer for the church in Ephesus is a great model of how we can pray for our church and for other churches today, for God to strengthen his people with power.

     | 14,283 views

    Very few things in life are unstoppable. The only truly unstoppable force in this world comes from God. The Spirit of God makes His Church, His people, and His purpose unstoppable.

    Lots of people get stopped by lots of things. I remember being stopped in my tracks one day at church – Snake. People are stopped in their tracks by all kinds of things. Sadly, I have known people who were stopped in their tracks relationally. Maybe they got burned in a relationship, or even in ...read more

    The Lukewarm Church Of Laodecia

    Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Nov 17, 2019
     | 4,347 views

    Lukewarmness is like a dud bomb. Accomplishes not a thing. Jesus Christ prefers us to be passionately against God or, much better, passionately for God. And He disciplines us because He loves us so very much. Thanks to William Barclay's insights which are reflected throughout this message.

    Deterrents To Church Growth

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Jan 10, 2020
     | 4,799 views

    What is church in the business of doing? Are we suppose to grow? Whose fault is it if we don't? I hope to answer some of these questions for us.

    I’m sure most of us can recall great stirring sermons that have helped and motivated us on the subject of church growth. There are many aspects to growth, such as soul winning, being a good witness for Christ. If a church is going to grow it also needs a healthy membership that will follow the ...read more
