    This sermon encourages believers to truly know God, not just about Him, and to live in anticipation of Christ's return, serving Him with energy, boldness, and contentment.

    Good morning, beloved congregation. As we gather together in the warmth of this sanctuary, let's take a moment to remember the grace that has brought us here. The grace that carries us through our trials, our joys, our sorrows, our victories. The grace that reminds us, even in our darkest hours, ...read more

    Perhaps you have a calling; and yet, you haven’t heard from the Lord in a while and feel directionless. This message explores how the apostle Paul had to undergo both a three-year and a fourteen-year down-time consecutively.

    When you are down to nothing, God is up to something! - Barbara Franklin(1) Have you ever been assigned a task from the Lord, or been asked by Him to do something specific? Perhaps you’ve been called to pastor a church, become a missionary, attend seminary, or even start a new outreach in the ...read more

    Waiting On The World To Change

    Contributed by Stephen Colaw on Apr 6, 2007

    Often we wait for the world to change, to get better, but God didn’t wait. Through the death and resurrection of Jesus he changed the world for us.

    (Play Song “Waiting on the World to Change” by John Mayer) Introduction: That song is currently quite popular, and while I like John Mayer’s music I must say that this is one of the worst songs I’ve ever heard in my life. Musically it’s great but the lyrics offer no hope, no promise, no ...read more

    Adapted from a Timothy Quill Advent series.

    I began a sermon series last week by saying that no one likes waiting—especially not at the emergency room of a hospital. But another place we don’t like having to wait is at the airport. If you’re travelling alone and your flight has been delayed, it’s no fun having to wait ...read more

    These three areas are so basic to our lives and determine our destiny. God's word shows us how important these are on just about every page of scripture.

    Let's say the 23rd Psalm together. (The Lord is my Shepherd...) I heard about a preacher who asked if any of the children could come up and say the 23rd Psalm. A little five year old bounced out of the pew and came to the podium and said: "The Lord is my Shepherd and that's all I want!" As I ...read more

    The very reason that many Churches are spiritually bankrupt is because they have drained the spiritual resources without putting anything BACK INTO THE WORK OF GOD!!!

    Cast Thy Bread Upon the Waters Eccl. 11:1 1 Cast thy bread upon the waters: for thou shalt find it after many days. 2 Give a portion to seven, and also to eight; for thou knowest not what evil shall be upon the earth. 3 If the clouds be full of rain, they empty themselves upon the earth: and ...read more

    If you learn to wait upon the Lord, you will find him a source of strength that can transform you into an eagle.

    Yahweh and the Eagles (Isaiah 40:27-31) 1.Do you know any Eagle Scouts? 2. I have been privileged to participate in a number of Eagle Scout ceremonies; it is something to be proud of. I respect young men who achieve such an honor. 3. The idea of describing an honored scout as an ...read more

    Jesus had a mission and a game plan to build his kingdom? The mission of every born again child of God should be the same as Jesus’ was.

    A Savior Worth Waiting For

    Joseph wasn’t so thrilled with the whole idea presented to him at first, but eventually accepted the present as God presented it to him. Joseph is really the forgotten figure of Christmas.

    A Savior Worth Waiting For ~ Luke 2:8-20 8 And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. 9 An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. 10 But the angel said to them, “Do not ...read more

    This is a sermon about the second coming of Christ. It asks the question, "if God somehow came to you and told you the world would end tomorrow, how would you change your life?"

    Hurry Up and Wait! 2 Peter 3:8-15 Sunday 12/10/17 The Second Sunday in Advent One of the most frustrating things I know is to travel on an airplane. What I hate about it is that you find yourself in a helpless cycle of Hurry Up and Wait. You know what I mean? You must be at the ...read more

     | 4,258 views

    Everyone waits for Christmas. Christmas is the promise of gifts. In Simeon and Anna we see that finally the Christmas promise has arrived. The silence is over in these latter days God has spoken to us in His Son.

    Intro: It has been 400 years since the Word of the Lord came to the prophets of Israel. Finally the still small voice whispers grace to those that will hear. In the 400 years of Gods silence Rome has risen to power and controls the Promised Land. A remnant of the people of Israel are still ...read more

    This parable challenges us to make sure we are prepared at all times to meet God. Whether via the Second Coming or at our death, we need to be ready. Not a good idea to be unprepared for His coming.

    Parable of the Ten Virgins Who here likes to paint? Who here plays an instrument? Most musicians or artists have stories of awkward moments when they were performing. Funny or awkward. The funniest I remember was when I was in a Christian rock band and we were starting a performance. The show ...read more

    A Sane Perspective Upon Discipline And Compassion Series

     | 5,662 views

    Walking with God means we must be willing to mix discipline with compassion in the right ratios and in the right situations. There is a time to be firm and buckle down and a time to open your heart.

    A Sane Perspective Upon Discipline and Compassion (Proverbs 19:14-15, 17-18) 1. Discipline and compassion are connected. For example, if teachers do not keep a class under control, students cannot learn and that affects their futures. 2. A school teacher injured his back and had to wear a ...read more

    To those of us who have taken the time to wrestle with our faith, have you ever noticed that there are seasons when God makes no sense?

    I want to begin with a statement in my sermon this morning that whatever God is doing… it makes no sense especially to the serious believers among us, to those of us who have taken the time to wrestle with our faith, have you ever noticed that there are seasons when God makes no sense?
