    How Could God Love Someone Like Me?

    Contributed by John Lowe on Nov 4, 2013
     | 6,824 views

    It was a scandal. Jesus was hanging out with some folk who were not well-respected. In fact, they were religious and social outcasts – and Jesus is not only eating with them, He is enjoying their company.

    9 September 2005 How Could God Love Someone Like Me? Matthew 9:9-13 Introduction As we get started this morning, I want to begin with a question. If Jesus were walking among us today, would He eat at Lauren’s sports bar, “Goony Birds?” If you’re thinking that ...read more

    Saved To Serve

    Contributed by David Hersey on Mar 27, 2015
     | 10,746 views

    A relationship with God is a long term commitment and dependent upon obedience to His will. Christians are therefore saved to serve God. This lesson looks at Christian service from a comprehensive biblical perspective.

    Saved To Serve A few months ago, we looked at how to develop a relationship with God. We learned that only the obedient know Him (1 John 2:4); love Him (John 14:23-24); are His friends (John 15:14); and of His family (Matthew 12:50). We looked at the importance of obedience to God as it relates ...read more

    There is nothing more important than seeking the presence of God. It is our highest call.

    I would start by saying that I have read hundreds of christian books, listened to even more christian sermons and read the bible over the last 30 years and I thank each person, knowingly and unknowingly, who has sown into my life. My sermons are an amalgamation of all I have learnt. ...read more

    Sonship Membership

    Contributed by Dr. Casey Adams on Oct 9, 2018
     | 5,846 views

    This message helps encourage the believer with trust in God for he has called us to be "Sons of God"

    I. "BEHOLD WHAT MANNER OF LOVE THE FATHER HATH BESTOWED UPON US, THAT WE SHOULD BE CALLED THE SONS OF GOD" A. It is amazing and thought provoking to note that John's great and central theme in the Gospel and in the three letters is about love - the love of God: 1. "God so loved the world, that He ...read more

    When you report to the Commander-in-Chief will you receive a medal or an Article 15?

    I and my fellow Airmen heard this a lot from our Drill Sgt at Lackland AFB way back in 1970. I don’t think many of us had much of a clue or a plan other than to get out of boot camp as soon as we could. I am afraid many Christians still do not know what they are going to do with their life.

    Lesson #9 [2c1]: Both Were Faithful (Hebrews 3:1-2) Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Oct 26, 2019
     | 2,793 views

    Next to Abraham, Moses was undoubtedly the man most revered by the Jewish people. To go back to the Law meant to go back to Moses, and the recipients of this letter to the Hebrews were sorely tempted to do just that.

    6/30/19 Tom Lowe Lesson #9 [2C1]: BOTH WERE FAITHFUL (HEBREWS 3:1-2) Introduction: At least some of the first readers of the Book of Hebrews were believers who came to Christ out of a background of Judaism. They were steeped in Old Testament understanding. When they heard the Gospel, they ...read more

    The Reward Of A Disciple (Luke, Part 5) Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Feb 20, 2022
     | 1,561 views

    As Christians we are following Jesus, or we are choosing to do our own thing? If anything, the witness of Peter, John, and James ought to encourage us today to choose Christ over being in control.

    The reward of a disciple (Luke, Part 5) Luke 9:18-36 Dismiss for Children’s Church Introduction / Recap - The study of Luke is an interesting one for believers to dive into -- We can see Luke’s interest in people (it’s genuine, re: career as a physician) -- We also get to experience how ...read more

    Who Was John The Baptist? (Luke, Part 2) Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Feb 3, 2022
     | 1,510 views

    The calling of John the Baptist is direct: Repent (turn) and receive. This appears to be tough challenge today … but it’s no different than it was in AD 29!!!

    Introduction / Recap - We know that Luke was a physician – helped Paul throughout his ministry -- He was most likely a Gentile from Antioch (Syria) addressing a Gentile audience - Examining the language of the text indicates that he was well educated -- EX: Familiar with Greek; well versed in ...read more

    How are we supposed to know when God is speaking to us? How do we know when we are hearing from God or it is an idea from our own brain? 1 Sam 3 has four essential truths of guidance for us in answering this very important topic of hearing God’s voice.
