     | 7,275 views

    Believers know that God's love for all motivates and empowers them to show love to all.

    A man and 24 of his friends and family and were refused service at a restaurant in Charleston, South Carolina. The reason: Michael Brown and his group are African-American. Apparently another customer - a white woman - complained that she felt threatened by their presence and Brown and his ...read more

    Our Everyday Need For God

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Sep 4, 2013

     | 11,100 views

    Most people, Christians included, use prayer like a fire extinguisher. They only use it when there's a fire. Truth is we have an need for God every moment of our lives.

    When do you need God? Most people (Christians included) only reserve God for the “this-is-so-tough-I-can’t-do-this-without-you-God” moments of life such as when life-threatening sickness comes, death visits us, or financial anxieties take control of our lives, or when career ...read more

    Prayer And The Presence Of God

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Sep 7, 2013
     | 4,716 views

    Starting a new series of talks on prayer I begin with some personal struggles and encourage the congregation to desire to be in the presence of the God.

    As we drove home from Hampshire on the M25 last Monday I heard something smack into the windscreen. About ten minutes later Moira noticed the sun glinting off a crack in the windscreen and over the course of the next ten minutes or so we watched the crack slowly growing. By the time we stopped at ...read more

    You Are Barabbas

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Sep 14, 2013
     | 10,912 views

    There are so many places within scripture where the gospel is foreshadowed. The account of Barabbas’ release is one such place.

    This morning I would like to spend a short amount of time studying about a man that we do not know too much about, but a man that for a small amount of time plays an important role in the darkness and injustice that happens the day our Lord was crucified. The man I am speaking of is Barabbas. There ...read more

    In our weakness we can always count on God to be our strength.

    Strength in Weakness There is a chorus we used to sing as kids that goes like this: - “My God is so great, so strong and so mighty, there's nothing my God cannot do.” You are probably familiar with it. Of course when we sing it, do we really pay attention to the meaning of the words. ...read more

    In Nehemiah we see that the world was attempting to infiltrate the faith and how Nehemiah dealt with this problem.

    Barbarians At The Gates Nehemiah 13:1-31 Intro: Back in 1990 Bryan Burrough and John Helyar wrote a book titled Barbarians At The Gates. In 1993 that book was made into a movie. Some of you may have seen the movie. It was about the hostile takeover of RJR Nabisco by unwanted investors. As I read ...read more

    This parable is deeply embedded in Middle Eastern tradition and culture, and it is to that culture that interpreters should turn.

    By the fourth century the parable of the unjust manager ..... which we read today ...... and the parable of the prodigal son were separated by ..... a chapter division. If the monks who established those divisions ...... had kept the two parables in the same chapter, ....... The entire history of ...read more

    Why Follow Jesus?

     | 7,157 views

    Many followed Jesus for what they can get out of Him. Peter followed Him because He is the Son of God and He has the words of eternal life.

    [RECAP last week’s sermon taken from Luke 9:57-62] Jesus wants us to be His disciples, who understand the heart of our Father and are willing to commit to doing His will on earth. • To do that well we need to be prepared for what we are getting ourselves into. • Jesus gave ...read more

    It's Time To Seek Him

    No sin can be more devastating to the church or more deadly to the individual than the sin of indifference. We need to seek Him.

    It is Time to Seek Him Isaiah 55:6-9 I am told that Napoleon's soldiers often used to sleep while they were on the march. They were moving forward, yet asleep and indifferent to everything around them. Thousands are like them in spiritual matters. They are as the old hymn says 'passing onward, ...read more

    Do you desire a new beginning? Check your life to see if any of these hindrances to a new beginning are operational in your life.

    Different ministers of God have spoken at different times about a New Beginning. A lot of us are familiar with Isaiah 43:19 where God says behold I do a new thing. But the question is how many of us can say we have truly experienced a new beginning in our walk with God, family life, career and ...read more

    Because the Christian is unsupervised, irresponsibility is a great possibility. Jesus tells us this parable so we will be encouraged to faithfulness & warned against unfaithfulness.

    LUKE 12: 41-48. [PARABLES IN LUKE] RESPONSIBLITY / RESPONSIBLE SERVANTS [John 21:15-17; 1 Peter 5:2-3] Last week we learn that Jesus’ disciples are to be alert, expecting His return.

    Unity is a vital issue for society as well as for the Church. For the Church, though, it is an issue we must solve or else the Gospel message falls into disrepute.
