"Freedom In A Prison Cell"

Contributed by Ken Sauer on May 4, 2010

Are we able to rejoice, even when the times get rough? Or does our faith depend on everything “going our way?” There is a cotton-candy like view of Christianity that promises all health and wealth, but it melts away when reality strikes.

Acts 16:16-34 “Freedom in a Prison Cell” There is a lot to be learned from the example of Christians who live in third-world countries, and don’t have the freedom we might often take for granted. Will Willimon tells the story of a Bishop from Angola who came to visit America a ...read more

Christmas Greeting Card Sermon V: Ponder! Series

Contributed by Charles Cunningham on Sep 30, 2019

We were not there when Christ was born, crucified, laid in the tomb, raised from the dead but Mary was there. She pondered "these things" - as should we, and exclaim as did she: "My spirit rejoices in God my Savior!"

CHRISTMAS GREETING CARD SERMON V: PONDER! “But Mary treasured all these things and pondered them in her heart.” (Luke 2:19) Once the angels had announced to the shepherds the good news of great JOY which shall be to all people, the Bible says they ...read more

Peace In Uncertain Times (Part 2) Series

Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 27, 2020

A radio message designed to encourage believers to rejoice in the peace Christ offers those who walk with Him. The world defines "peace" in a manner that is unattainable. Christ offers peace that is the heritage of each person who knows Him as Master over life.

“Peace I leave with you; My peace I give to you. Not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid” [JOHN 14:27].

Approaching The Communion Table Rightly

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Feb 7, 2021

In this sermon we are going to review Magdalene meeting Jesus at the tomb and suggest that the keys to taking the communion table in a worthy manner are turning away from a life of sin, praying for faith, seeking the master, hearing, and acknowledging His voice, and rejoicing for He is our Lord!

"All In A Day’s Work”

Contributed by David Roth on Oct 5, 2020

In a parable of vineyard workers, Christ shows that all who receive from Him, and all that is received from Him, is totally gift. It is not earned. As Christians we rejoice and are thankful that we are in His vineyard, and that His continues to call others to His vineyard to labor with us.

Matthew 20:1-16 J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen.

"many Are Called, But Few Are Chosen."

Contributed by Dr. Jerry Hulse on Jul 8, 2022

Sin Fighters

Contributed by Craig Condon on Sep 26, 2015

We must not look for labels or titles. We must look for attitudes, actions and spirit. Jesus rejoices when he sees mercy, justice and compassion in our lives, because when he sees them he sees God at work in our world.

In 2012 Dr. Michael Youssef, who is the founder and President of Leading the Way Ministries, wrote an article about a Christian Sunday school teacher who was leading a class of boys. After a conversation with one of the boys, the young man prayed and received Christ. That young man was D.L. Moody, ...read more

Blessing In Church Closure

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jan 20, 2020

Sometimes we should rejoice in the death of a church rather than mourn. After a long painful disease, we express relief when a person passes into Glory. Many churches suffer a slow and painful death. Out of that death life and renewal may come.

Revelation 2:4  Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.  5  Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except ...read more

Welcome Home

Contributed by Ray Ellis on Oct 16, 2006

Jesus told three parables about lost sheep, a lost coin and a lost son. The stories highlight the truth that missing people matter to God. God places tremendous value on every individual. All heaven rejoices when one person repents and turns to God.

“Welcome Home” Luke 15:11-27 Those of you who have had or currently have sons can closely identify with the story Jesus told about a rebellious son. The rebellious son was the teenager and the other son was obedient and probably in his twenties. In Luke chapter 15 Luke records that Jesus made ...read more
