    If you want to be fully alive, invite Jesus into your life, turn to Him for help, and do whatever he tells you to do. Then have a good time!

    While teaching at the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Tony Campolo once turned an ordinary lecture into an unforgettable lesson. He asked an unsuspecting student sitting in the front row, “Young man, how long have you lived?” The student answered his age. Tony responded, “No, no, no. That's how ...read more

    I’ve found over the years that the Lord is constantly turning things upside down. That's the way He gets things rightside up.

    Fifth Sunday of Easter 2024 The psalm that we sang or heard just a little while ago, our responsorial today–does anyone remember the first words of the whole psalm in Scripture? It’s Psalm 22. The last time we encountered it this year was during Holy Week. The first words were spoken by Jesus from ...read more

    Taming The Tongue

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 5, 2024
     | 2,135 views

    In this message we look at the universal danger of our tongues, why we need to control our words, and how we can turn them into blessings for others.

    TAMING THE TONGUE James 3:3-11 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. As Christians, we have a lot to praise the Lord for! When you first find Jesus, it’s hard to keep your mouth closed about how good God is and about how wonderful it feels to have your sins washed away. 2. Charles Wesley reflected this ...read more

    Stewardship (3 Of 4)

     | 1,299 views

    Again we would like to turn our attention to those passages in the Bible that deal with our being stewards of the money God has blessed us with.

    I would like to remind you that stewardship is taught in both the OLD and the NEW TESTAMENTS. In Matthew 23, Jesus rebuked the scribes and Pharisees for what they were NOT DOING, while recognizing what THEY WERE DOING. He noted that they were careful to tithe of every plant that produced ...read more

    Zacchaeus, a man who seemingly had it all, was in reality empty inside. His life took a turn when he encountered Jesus, leading to a profound transformation.

    Zacchaeus was a man who seemed to have it all, but in reality, he had nothing. However, everything changed when Jesus entered his life. Today, we will explore the story of Zacchaeus and how his encounter with Jesus transformed him. Zacchaeus was a tax collector, working for the Roman government. ...read more

    It Begins With Me

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 31, 2025
     | 205 views

    Revival starts where one heart turns—opening closed doors, cleansing hidden sin, and welcoming the Spirit’s rain until joy returns again.

    Introduction — The Long Wait for Rain Sometimes revival doesn’t arrive with thunder. Sometimes it seeps in quietly—like rain through hard, cracked ground. For years we may live with the crust of complacency, calling it contentment. We tell ourselves that the season of power is past, that we’ve ...read more

    A Plea From The Pit Series

    God is merciful whenever the sinner seeks Him and His mercy. God will show mercy to the nation, the culture, the society that turns from wickedness to seek His grace.

    It distresses me to preach messages that expose sin within the society in which we live. I could wish that I were permitted to speak only pleasant things, to declare a message that was always positive, to affirm our culture as righteous. However, I am compelled to give an answer to the One Who ...read more

    If you want to get out of the mess you’re in, take responsibility for your own actions, and with God’s help turn from your sin.

    A CEO has taken on a new job, and the outgoing CEO says to him, “Sometimes you'll make wrong choices. You will. You'll mess up. When that happens, I have prepared three envelopes for you. I left them in the top drawer of the desk. The first time it happens, open #1. The second time you mess ...read more

    Prayer becomes heavy when it turns into performance. Jesus calls us back to honest, relational prayer—where pretending ends and real communion with God begins.

    There are few subjects in the church that create more confusion—and more quiet frustration—than prayer. Not because people don’t believe in it. Most Christians believe deeply in prayer. They would defend it without hesitation. They know it matters. They know it’s essential. They know it’s supposed ...read more

    God abundantly refreshes and enriches our lives when we pray, turning our dry seasons into fruitful harvests through His faithful provision and grace.

    Some of us walked in today feeling like cracked earth—stretched thin, thirsty, waiting for a cloud to gather overhead. You’ve known seasons like that. Maybe you’re in one now. The bills feel bigger than your paycheck. The grief feels heavier than your shoulders. The prayers feel longer than the ...read more

    God’s mercy meets us in our deepest failures; true repentance brings cleansing, renewal, and restored joy for those who honestly turn to Him.

    Some of us walked in today with a knot in the stomach and a stone in the soul. We know the sound of shame. It whispers in the quiet moments, it shouts in the sleepless hours. Guilt that gnaws. Regret that repeats. Failure that fogs the heart. If you’ve ever stared at the ceiling and wondered, Can ...read more

    Prayer transforms worry into peace, gratitude turns scarcity into joy, and intentional generosity creates lasting impact when we bring everything to God with open hearts.

    Some days it feels like life is lived in the space between sighs. Between the doctor’s call and the next appointment. Between a stack of bills and a thin bank account. Between what we hoped for and what is here. In those spaces, God is nearer than breath. He leans over the rail of heaven, ...read more
