    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 2, 2025
     | 306 views

    This begins a 4 part study of local church membership in the New Testament. Is a formal church membership biblically required in our churches? Was it required in the first century churches? We will examine scriptures and practices for those answers.

    IS OFFICIAL, OR FORMAL CHURCH MEMBERSHIP IN A LOCAL CHURCH ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURE? – PART 1 What is church membership? What does the New Testament teach about church membership?

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on May 7, 2025
     | 274 views

    Regarding this matter of formal church membership, it is examined alongside mainly Ephesian verses. The subject is opened up to understand the New Testament practice of being members of one another and the equality in the Body of Christ. Membership of Christ’s Body covers it all.

    IS OFFICIAL/FORMAL CHURCH MEMBERSHIP IN A LOCAL CHURCH ACCORDING TO SCRIPTURE? – PART 3 Part 3 (there are 4 parts) continues to look at various scriptures in this study of formal church membership over and above the one membership that unites all believers into one Body, and makes them all ...read more

    Considering Encouragement Series

    based on 67 ratings
     | 40,104 views

    Encouragement is awesome. It can actually change the course of another person's day, week, or life. You will find, if you think for a moment, that the people who influence you are the people who believe in you most, who encouraged you.

    Encouraging Encouragement Series: CONSIDERING ENCOURAGEMENT HEBREWS 10: 23-25 While the joy of the Lord truly sustains and strengthens us, there are times when we all need encouragement. This world is hard, especially on Christians. Elijah, Jonah and Job were at times suicidal. Paul, ...read more

    We know that we need to be prayng and have a solid relationship with the Lord. We will never have the abundant life God intends without the Lord being in our lives.

    The dynamics of prayer Luke chapter 11:1-13 Matthew 6:9-13 Introduction- Wednesday, we were in Bible and looking at prayer and the Lord’s Prayer from Luke chapter 11. As we were discussing and looking at these verses, it became clear to me that as a body of believers, we need to look at ...read more

    This is a sermon that deals with the importance of having the right relationship with God.

    What am I here for? Ecclesiastics 5:1-7 This is my eighth Easter as pastor at this church. Easter is kind of like the Super bowl Sunday for the churches.

    Bridging The Distance

    Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Jul 13, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,372 views

    What people want is a key to purposeful life. They want answers to where they are. They want to grasp something higher and bigger than themselves. They reach for a deeper connection beyond the boring routine of where they live and what they do.

    “Bridging the Distance” Sermon Topic: Being in relationship with God Psalm 84 Airport terminals are entertaining venues to hang out if you cannot afford the movies! The most interesting storylines involve watching people arriving or leaving. The couple huddled – more like a locked embrace – as she ...read more

    Sermon # 7 - Time To Stop Murmuring Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 21, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,409 views

    Do we find ourselves complaining and murmuring about many things? Why do we do so, and how can we stop doing this? This sermon will help us examine ourselves in the light of God’s word.

    If we as a church today desire to resemble the early church, and if our aspiration is that people should be added in great numbers, then it is only appropriate that we not only evaluate ourselves in the light of God’s word, but also investigate to see what the early church did differently that made ...read more

    "The Kind Of Church I Want To Be Part Of" - Part One Series

    Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Oct 1, 2018
     | 9,326 views

    What does the example of the early church teach us about being the kind of church that's headed the right direction?

    Today, we’re going to look to the second chapter of the book of Acts to think together about church. I am calling this series, “The Kind of Church I Want to be Part of.” But I need to point out, that I am not talking about looking for the “perfect” church. “If I actually found the perfect church, ...read more

     | 3,409 views

    We are bored. Feelings shut down because we strive for security and for status, and even for spirituality, but nothing works. Only allegiance to the risen Christ provides fulfillment.

    Of all the diseases of our time, the most serious one is boredom. Of all the sicknesses this flesh is heir to, the most fatal is boredom. Not AIDS, not homicide, not heart disease nor cancer, but boredom. Oh, I don’t suppose any mortuary ever tagged a cadaver’s toe with "boredom". I don’t suppose ...read more

    Do You Want To Go Away As Well?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jun 2, 2015
     | 8,788 views

    When adherents and members leave the fellowship of a congregation, how should we respond? We find guidance for our response in the actions of the Master.

    JOHN 6:60-71 DO YOU WANT TO GO AWAY AS WELL? “When many of his disciples heard [Jesus’ describing Himself as ‘the Bread of Life’], they said, ‘This is a hard saying; who can listen to it?’ But Jesus, knowing in himself that his disciples were grumbling about ...read more

     | 15,418 views

    REWARDS IN HEAVEN. Somehow that seems wrong to me. Surely heaven is enough reward and besides, if all sin is regarded as the same and deserving of hell, how can good deeds then be rated on a scale, and rewarded accordingly?

    Matthew 6 – Part 1 – FORGET THE REWARDS, I’LL DO IT FOR FREE! Everywhere I look people offer me rewards if I buy this or shop at their store, or buy petrol at certain petrol stations. I am rewarded on my credit card if I buy a certain amount using their card. People at the Super ...read more
