    This sermon calls on us to acknowledge God in every aspect of our lives.

    Proverbs 3:6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. Did you know that the English language is one of the most difficult languages to learn? One of the reasons for this is due to the multiple meanings of words. For instance, the word "can" has many meanings, depending ...read more

    Five kings decide to join forces to overcome/overwhelm Joshua by attacking Gibeon. Joshua gets word that the five kings were going to attack Gibeon so he goes on 20 mile uphill march, under the cloak of darkness to fight them.

    Pride And Promiscuity

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 12, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,750 views

    Jesus contrasts a prideful Pharisee and a formerly promiscuous sinner desperate for grace. One is changed forever and one is unchanged. The difference: pride vs. humility. We all are in need of a Savior. Sadly, some don't realize it until it is too late.

    Luke 7:36-50 Pride and Promiscuity The sermon title for today’s story is in honor of my wife, who first introduced me to Jane Austen’s “Pride and Prejudice,” a classic tale of two strong-willed and misunderstood personalities coming together in romantic love. But ...read more

    Get Used To Being Hated Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Jun 17, 2016
     | 10,457 views

    Jesus was hated by the world, for no other reason than He had come to reveal the Father. As those who are associated with Jesus we should accept the same level of hate.

    Message John 15:18-25 “Get Used To Being Hated” Living with teenagers can be heaps of fun. Especially when they go through that wonderful time of life called “puberty”. You just never know what is going to happen from one moment to the next. You can be quietly sitting in front of the tv. Your ...read more

    Victory In Jesus Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 23, 2016
     | 13,910 views

    Far too many believers live defeated lives. The Lord is never pleased when we surrender to our difficulties and admit defeat. Granted we can't overcome within our own ability, but with the help of the Lord, we can live victoriously.

    Victory in Jesus 1 John 2: 1-6 As I studied this passage, I was reminded of the relationship John enjoyed with Christ. He was part of the inner circle, one of three that were closest to Jesus. I am convinced Jesus didn’t love those three more than the others, but they were privileged to ...read more

    The Comfort And Confidence Of Children Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 23, 2016
     | 8,954 views

    There is nothing more comforting for a child, than a safe and loving home. Such an environment fosters growth and stability. The same principle applies for the children of God. Living confidently in Him, we enjoy growth and stability.

    The Comfort and Confidence of Children 1 John 3: 1-3 Our text this evening deals with the wonderful love of God and the eternal blessings bestowed on those who have been adopted into the family of God through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ our Lord. There is no greater comfort than knowing one has ...read more

    Putting Our Love Into Action Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 23, 2016
     | 14,128 views

    Our efforts for the Lord will be futile without love. We know the Bible commands that we love one another, and yet we fail to fully heed the command. Our world needs to experience love in action, not just in word.

    Putting our Love into Action 1 John 3: 11-17 Our text this evening continues to deal with the great theme of love that John has already dealt with extensively. I suppose there is no wonder John felt so impressed to emphasize love among the believers. He was blessed to walk with the Lord, studying ...read more

    Love Lifted Me Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 24, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 30,349 views

    Love is an essential character trait for the believer. The Lord loved us, so we are expected to love one another. This is easy preaching, but often a difficult practice. John reveals great truth regarding the love we should possess.

    Love Lifted Me 1 John 4: 11-16 John 13:34-35 – A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. [35] By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. There can be no doubt that Jesus loved ...read more

    Gentle Restoration

    Contributed by Ron Hietsch on Jul 1, 2016
     | 3,804 views

    The object of all admonition is the restoration of a person at odds with God because of persistent, intentional, defiant, high handed sin. We would warn someone about a physical danger. We also need to warn about spiritual danger.l

    Pentecost 7 Year C July 3, 2016 Text Galatians 6:1 Brothers, ( And Sisters ) if someone is caught in a sin, you who live by the spirit should restore that person gently. But watch yourselves, or you also may be tempted. Gluttony certainly is not spoken highly of in the Bible. Proverbs 23:2 ...read more

    God's elect are to be prepared to give a testimony on how we believe God has raised up this nation, how He has blessed this country and how He will deal with us, depending on the choices we make.

    Title: Foundational Declarations Truths from the Signers of the Declaration of Independence. Introduction, I want to share with you a truth that I read several years ago back - I do not remember who wrote it, but it holds a truth that should not be ignored, "If we do not know the foundation on ...read more

    Postmodernism & The Stairway To Nowhere

    Contributed by Bill Bowdle on Jul 6, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,054 views

    Sermon compares postmodern "Stairway to Nowhere" to Jacob's Stairway to Heaven in Genesis which climbs to God. Postmodernism climbs nowhere toward relativism w/o universal truth. Christianity climbs to God, the author and anchor of TRUTH.

    "POSTMODERNISM: & THE STAIRWAY TO NOWHERE" REV. BILL BOWDLE 01/05/97 Scripture: Genesis 28:10-22 Gen 28:10 Jacob left Beersheba and set out for Haran.

    Finish Well Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 16,625 views

    As we run the race the journey will be one where we face many faith-testing situations. In that journey we can endure and “finish well” because our Saviour gives us all we need to fight the good fight, finish the race and keep the faith.

    Message 2 Timothy 4:1-8 Finish Well I want to start by talking about epitaphs. An epitaph is the words which are written on a tombstone and they act as a way of remembering a deceased person’s life. One day a man and his brother were walking through a cemetery in the country which contained old ...read more

    The Lord places this most precious treasure in Jars of Clay - so that others will see and experience the treasure of Christ rather than being impressed with or find fault in us.

    TITLE: JARS OF CLAY AND CRACKED POTS SCRIPTURE: II CORINTHIANS 4:7 I want to read this text from the King James Version and the NIV- New International Version – “BUT WE HAVE THIS TEASURE IN EARTHEN VESSELS, THAT THE EXCELLENCY OF THE POWER MAY BE OF GOD, AND NOT OF US?” “BUT WE HAVE THIS ...read more

    True Sight And Blindness Series

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Feb 4, 2019
     | 8,780 views

    This is the final segment of the this four part series exploring John 9. What does it mean to be spiritually blind?

    As we conclude our examination of John 9, we begin to see the story is a lot more than just one where Jesus healed a man born blind. We begin to see that there are those who are spiritually blind even though they have 20/20 physical vision. We looked at the man who was born blind having his ...read more
