    Discovering Your "Why” In Life Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 24, 2024
     | 1,268 views

    The will of the Father wasn’t an optional thing for Jesus; it was an essential thing. It wasn’t a cul-de-sac, but it was His main thoroughfare. Just as you were to finish a big porterhouse steak, Jesus is satisfied by doing the Father’s will. It was His source of life.

    Have you discovered your purpose? Do you know your “why”? Many American Christians fall into the trap that exists only to make money or to be happy. Do you know why God has placed you here on earth? Do you know your “why”? Invitation At the conclusion of today’s message, you will be invited to ...read more

    The sad reality is that most of the world lives by phrase, “I want to keep my options open.” But nothing great in life happens without making commitments. Commitments give our lives direction and purpose. In this message we’ll look at the four “P’s” of commitment.

    Zechariah has a vision centering on Jerusalem being rebuilt, but it is a promise of a spiritual Jerusalem being built which has its foundation in Christ Jesus and its purpose in Jesus as well.

     | 143 views

    God’s grace meets us in our weakness, transforms our identity, and invites us to live in continual amazement and gratitude for His mercy.

    Some days feel like thin ice, don’t they? One more worry, one more regret, and the surface might crack. You smile for the room, but your heart whispers, “I’m worn, I’m weak, I’m wondering.” And then, in the hush of that honest place, a gentle truth arrives: God’s mercy is not measured by your ...read more

    A Person, Not An Algorithm

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 21, 2025
     | 177 views

    True meaning is not something we calculate or construct but Someone we receive—our identity, purpose, and hope found only in Christ.

    When the Soul Feels Automated We live in a world where almost everything is mediated through algorithms. They tell us what to watch, what to like, what to buy, and even what to feel. They shape our news, our habits, and our reactions without us ever stopping to ask whether the suggestions they ...read more

    Because the "night is coming" we should be working the works of Jesus while we still can.

    Intro: To get a picture of what Jesus may be saying in this verse, I picture a hard working farmer in days before modern farm machinery. He rose up early each day in order to be in the field before "first light" to take productive advantage of every minute of daylight in cultivating his crop for ...read more

    I preached this message at the going home celebration of a 92 year old christian man. I took the title from a star trek movie.

    Into: the birth of man marks the beginning of a journey. The Bible describes man’s life on earth as a vapour, a passing shadow, as a cloud consumed and vanished away. Life is also described as swifter than the shuttle of a weavers loom. The Word of God, tells us, there is a time to be born: a time ...read more

    #1 of 3 teachings. There is a great need for Christians to awaken to the unique call & destiny awaiting all those who follow Jesus. Yet how many treasures of God’s Kingdom are never claimed because we try to remain civilians in a time of war?

    King Aragorn (from JRR Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings: ’The Return of the King)’: "A day may come when the courage of men fails, when we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship, but it is not this day.
