Be Ready To Receive Help Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 30, 2021

Jesus received people according to how they were convicted to serve Him. However, we as human beings often miss the bigger picture, and forfeit opportunities to assist people in being used by God to further the kingdom.

I want to begin by sharing something from the apostle Paul. Paul, in speaking about what a person should give to the church in the way of monetary offerings; he once stated, “For if there is first a willing mind, it is accepted according to what one has, and not according to what he does not have” ...read more

Be Observant And Flexible Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 30, 2021

It is all too common for individuals in ministry to become overly focused on small and often menial tasks, and then forget to take time for the people around them; and ministry is supposed to be about people! Jesus was flexible.

We live in a hectic and fast paced world. I’m sure that many of you have noticed just how busy life can be. I read an article entitled, “Goal Oriented or People Oriented,” and I want to share with you something it says. This article states, “Many times we get caught up in our ‘to do’ lists and ...read more

Be Involved In The Father’s Business Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 30, 2021

This message looks at how Jesus personally demonstrated the primary task that is expected of all believers, which is share the clear, unembellished message of the salvation found in the Messiah, Jesus Christ.

The apostle Paul once declared, “When I preach the gospel, I cannot boast, for I am compelled to preach. Woe to me if I do not preach the gospel!” (1 Corinthians 9:16, NIV). For Paul, the most important thing in life, second only to worshipping Christ, was preaching the gospel. He stated that he ...read more

Minister On Purpose Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on May 5, 2021

This message looks at ministry or service. “Every believer isn’t a pastor, but every believer is called into ministry. God calls all believers to minister to the world and the church. Service in the body isn’t optional for Christians” - Rick Warren

This morning we’ll be viewing the purpose of “ministry” or “service.” In The Purpose Driven Life, Rick Warren says, “Growing up, you may have thought that being ‘called’ by God was something only missionaries, pastors, nuns, and other ‘full-time’ church workers experienced, but the Bible says ...read more

We Must Tell It All

Contributed by Larry Grant on May 15, 2022

The message of Christ is a life-changing message! It can open the eyes blinded by sin. It can straighten the limbs withered by iniquity. It can cleanse away the leprosy of the soul. It can bring new life into a dead spirit. Jesus has the power to set men free!

Acts 4:13-20 WE MUST TELL IT ALL May 15, 2022 On 1st Sunday we preached just prior to this passage, where Peter and John had been used of the Lord to heal a beggar who sat at the gate of the Temple called Beautiful. The Jews were amazed, and Peter used their ...read more

Joseph’s Obedience Series

Contributed by Scott Turansky on Jan 1, 2023

Joseph is the unsung hero of Christ's early life. Through obedience, he impacted Mary, he impacted Jesus, he impacted the other children, and I think he impacted Jesus’ entire ministry.

Sometimes there's words that we just don't like. Sometimes it's because of the way they sound. Some sound weird or sometimes they conjure up something kind of gross. One word that I don't like is the word ‘maggot.’ Really, if you think of maggots, is anything pleasant ever really ...read more

The Farewell Speech Series

Contributed by Paul Robinson on Jan 27, 2023

In Acts 20, the Apostle Paul gives a farewell speech to the Ephesian elders. What can we learn from this speech?

During his third missionary journey, Paul wanted to meet with Ephesian elders and give a charge to them. However, he did not travel to Ephesus probably because he was warned it would be too dangerous, so he sent messengers and had the Ephesian elders meet him at Miletus. The reason why Paul ...read more
