    Those were small stepping stones, compared to what was going to happen next. This would be the one that would put him on the map, the one that would make his name a household word forever

    Marked Moments? Open Your Eyes, There Everywhere! Eccl. 9:11 NKJ 11. I returned and saw under the sun that— The race is not to the swift,  Nor the battle to the strong,  Nor bread to the wise,  Nor riches to men of understanding,  Nor favor to men of skill;  But time and chance happen to them ...read more

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Sep 14, 2017
     | 15,965 views

    Don’t let anything stop you from pursuing your God-given dreams, not rejection nor reversals, because in God’s sovereignty, our setbacks are but stepping stones to success.

    Before I get into my message today, I want you to pick a number, any number. Did you pick a number larger than a million? If not, then, why didn't you? In 1998, Larry Page and Sergey Brin picked the number one followed by 100 zeroes while they were still graduate students at Stanford University. ...read more

     | 2,533 views

    Today as we mark the celebration of the milestone of 50 years let’s answer the question that Joshua predicted his people would ask when they saw that pile of stones next to the Jordan River.

    Although we no longer use literal stones to mark the miles along our roads and highways, we all understand the reference to “milestones.” Tracing their history back to the Roman Empire when they were called “miliarium” they were used to mark distances along their vast network of roads. Yes, they ...read more

    The priesthood of the believer. We all have positions of priests. We all have direct access to God. And it goes on. Christians are God’s own people. You are a special possession of God.

    Do you remember the television show called Fantasy Island? For a fee of ten thousand dollars they would arrange a weekend of your fantasy to come true. That sounds pretty good. But God can do better than that. He will give you beyond what you ask or think. Not for a weekend but for a life and even ...read more

     | 2,673 views

    Crossing the Jordan on dry ground during flood stage was a great moment in the history of Israel. It was marked as an occasion not soon to be forgotten. When God manifests himself then make a marker in your life. A great spiritual experience is to chart the miracles God has done in your life.

    There are some things you just don’t want to forget. If you win a sporting event you have a trophy to stand as a tangible reminder of that accomplishment. When you graduate you receive a diploma to frame and put on your wall. That diploma represents great expenditures of time and money. With ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 7,155 views

    While Israel and world awaits the building of the Third Temple we must realize that the true temple is a spiritual house that each of those who are born again are living stones that make up the House of God.

    THE THIRD TEMPLE By Pastor Jim May 1 Peter 2:5-10 We are living in a time when all of those who are waiting for the coming of the Lord are watching the events of this world and wondering just how close we are to that day when we shall all be caught up together to meet the Lord in the air. ...read more

    Building Your Rock Pile

    based on 26 ratings

    Israel was commanded to pile 12 stones after they crossed over Jordan as a memorial to God’s deliverance. What kind of rocks are we piling up as a memorial for future generations should Jesus tarry?

    BUILDING YOUR ROCK PILE Joshua 3:14-17; 4:1-7 Life is a journey. With each passing day we are drawing nearer to the time when we must cross over Jordan, the river of death. As I grow older I cannot help but think about what that day will be like. What will that passage from this life into ...read more

    Like the charred stones pulled out of the rubbish and used to rebuild the wall around the temple and Jerusalem God wants to recycle your life. Do you know any souls who need to be recycled?

     | 7,573 views

    A short talk for our annual Ash Wednesday service. The bright light of God's judgement and holiness and grace calls us to leave no stone unturned and no cobweb un-swept as we route out sin.

    In 1977 (in his book How to be born again) Billy Graham wrote: ‘Several years ago I was to be interviewed at my home for a well-known television show and, knowing it would appear on nationwide television, my wife [Ruth] took great pains to see that everything looked nice.

     | 354 views

    Three days had passed. Hope seemed buried in a borrowed tomb. But on the third day, heaven broke silence. The stone was rolled away. Jesus stood—not as a ghost, not as a memory—but as Living Proof.

     | 18,854 views

    Sometimes life makes us feel like we're getting pummeled. We're get pounded with left hooks and uppercuts and we don't have a chance to cover up and defend ourselves. Is this an appropriate analogy of how some of your days go? What can we do when life hurts?

    WHEN LIFE HURTS Does this picture depict how you feel sometimes? My Uncle Jeff passed away recently. He had three kids; one of whom used to attend here-Eric. Jeff's daughter, Chelsea, posted this picture on Facebook and I commented on it. What I shared is incorporated in the sermon. 1) When ...read more

    OT prophecy regarding the Advent. The "Stone not cut by human hands" in the Daniel 2 is the Messiah born of a virgin in the NT. Did Daniel understand that Nebuchadnezzar's dream was a prophecy of the coming Kingdom of God to be initiated by Jesus' birth?
