    Sinful But Called

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 5, 2025
     | 567 views

    The power of God’s word, spoken to Peter and the others by the very Word of God, Son of the Father, was enough to kick in the adrenaline and motivate the fishermen to fish longer in the worst time of day in the part of the lake with the worst prospects.

    Fifth Sunday in Course 2025 The first thing that strikes me as I read today’s Gospel is that Peter and his fishing crew had been working all night and then had cleaned their nets. These professionals had just worked at least ten hours and were ready to go home. Jesus came along with hundreds of ...read more

    Looking at our calling in Christ.

    Called - How to Grow Ephesians 4:17-23 February 16, 2025 For the past weeks we’ve been looking at God’s call in our lives. It starts off with a call to WHO we are, not necessarily to be a doer in the beginning. We’ve looked at the fact that we have been called by God. In fact, as Paul told ...read more

    Who Calls?

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 30, 2023
     | 1,087 views

    Hearing and answering God's call has four parts in two pairs. We need to recognize who God is, and who we are, and after being cleansed, we must respond.

    Do you ever screen your calls? By that I mean do you look to see who’s calling before you answer? I answer most of my calls right when they happen unless it’s tagged “scam likely” or I’m driving (I haven’t hooked up my Bluetooth yet) or if the phone is in the other room or if I accidentally left it ...read more

    Called To Freedom

     | 1,835 views

    So, what is this freedom Paul is speaking of? What do you do with freedom when you get it? Does freedom mean “party all the time like some might think?”

    Called to Freedom Galatians 5:13-26 Do you remember when as a child you could hardly wait until you grew up? I can remember many times when I would just think about how great it would be when I became a teenager. As a teenager, I thought I would be able to do so many things that I couldn’t do as a ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,203 views

    The Lord is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance (2 Peter 3:9).

    A CALL TO SILENCE. Zephaniah 1:7; Zephaniah 1:12-18. Speaking during the reign of king Josiah of Judah, Zephaniah spends a lot of energy outlining a universal judgment against the whole earth (Zephaniah 1:1-3), INCLUDING Judah and Jerusalem (Zephaniah 1:4-6). “Hold thy peace,” he cries, “for ...read more

    If Jesus is calling you today, will you answer? One of the ways we all initially follow Jesus is to hear his call - to become aware that Jesus desires for us to be in his family, to serve as He did, and to live forever with him.

    Following Jesus: The Call Luke 5:1-11 Introduction If Jesus is calling you today, will you answer? One of the ways we all initially follow Jesus is to hear his call - to become aware that Jesus desires for us to be in his family, to serve as He did, and to live forever with him. 2 ...read more

    God has called us, but who are we called to be? We look at that question this week.

    Called by God Ephesians 4:1 August 9, 2020 For the past weeks I’ve been talking about the fact that you have been called by God. I think we would all agree with that. I think I’m on pretty solid ground when I say most of us believe we were created by God to do something significant, something ...read more

    The Call To Fellowship Series

    based on 2 ratings
     | 10,889 views

    Few understand the biblical teaching on fellowship seeing it as a social time. We need to understand what it means to have fellowship with Christ and with His church.

    The Call to Fellowship 1 Corinthians 1:9-10 One of the most troubled churches in apostolic times was the Corinthian Church. They were plagued with a myriad of problems in the church including: divisions, arrogance, sexual immorality, incest, litigation, doctrinal error, abuse of the Lord’s ...read more

    The Call To Unity Series

    Dwight L. Moody once stated, "I have never yet known the Spirit of God to work where the Lord's people were divided." For God to bless the church, there must be unity.

    The Call to Unity 1 Corinthians 1:10-18 Recently, I read about a church that split, and that split began over an argument at a potluck supper when a lady brought a congealed salad made with Cool Whip instead of real whipping cream. Frank Martin has written a book entitled War in The Pews that ...read more

    Called to Serve August 29, 2020 As I was reading for this message, someone asked what the number 10 to the 2 trillion - 400 billionth power represents? I’m not sure that’s an actual number.
