    We must continually pick up our cross and follow Jesus even if we are entering an uncomfortable zone

    Jesus had just asked his disciples a very important question, a question that we need to ask ourselves also. Who is this man called Jesus. You see we must know where we stand with Christ , we must know that he is our redeemer in order to be able to take up our cross and follow him. Lets look at ...read more

    How do we react to signs of the end of the age? How would Jesus encourage us to proceed. Let’s examine Jesus’ prophecy in Luke 21:25-36.

    Live A Holy Life! Series

     | 5,209 views

    This Old Testament account of King David leads us to consider the temptations that we face and the holy life Jesus calls us to live in his Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5:21-37.

    “How did this happen?” Have you ever read or heard a news story that just left you with that thought? “How did this happen?” I think that there were quite a few people that felt that way last Sunday afternoon as the heard the news of the 41 yar-old basketball superstar, Kobe Bryant’s death. ...read more

    To wait upon the Lord is to seek him and wait for the prompting by His Spirit to move to action. There is time of waiting and also an expectation that His Spirit will instruct us to launch out.

    Good morning brothers and sisters. I will read Isa 40:31 “They who wait upon the Lord, shall mount up with wings like eagles. They shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not be faint.” I wish to start off by sharing some facts of the American bald eagle. They are the kings of the ...read more

    Setting Our Minds

     | 4,879 views

    Peter has good intentions, but they are not in agreement with God's ultimate plan. We must covenant to deny ourselves and align ourselves to God's will and ways.

    WE MAY HAVE HEARD THIS FAMILIAR SAYING: “THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS.” AN INTENTION IS SIMPLY A PLAN OR GOAL WE HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH. IRONICALLY, INTENTIONS DON’T ACHIEVE ANYTHING. THEY ARE MERELY IDEAS AND DREAMS OF SPECIFIC THINGS THAT WE’D LIKE TO SEE DONE IN THE ...read more

    Noah- The Ungiver

    Contributed by Jerry Owen on May 25, 2018
     | 6,910 views

    Believers are immersed in a world of sin and temptation. Noah experienced a world such as this or even worse. Our duty as believers in God is to never give in to sin, never give up our hope in Christ, and to never give out in doing good.

    Noah: The Ungiver Genesis 6:5-9 Read Gen 6:5-7 5 Then the Lord saw that the wickedness of man was great on the earth, and that every intent of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. 6 The Lord was sorry that He had made man on the earth, and He was grieved in His heart. 7 The Lord ...read more

    Where do you go when your mind is broken, you feel empty and without a sense of purpose, incapable of finding any joy in your life? You seek a cure from the Great Physician Jesus whose demand to deny self and follow Him is a yoke that is light in His sustaining grace and strength!

    Going Beyond Human Sickness Matthew 11:28-30, 16:21-27 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 What do you do when you get sick?

    Are You A Disciple?

    Contributed by Jerry Owen on Mar 6, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 12,808 views

    Much of the church today has watered down the gospel so much in order to just attract attenders that Lordship and discipleship are completely foreign concepts. Many want only a casual relationship with Christ, but Christ is not a casual relationship God.

    ARE YOU A DISCIPLE? Matthew 16:13-27 This week I was in my storage room looking for something. I reached to the top shelf and felt fur and claws. A flying squirrel jumped up on a box and stared at me. I yelled for Lana to come. Why? Because I needed a sermon illustration. She got there with a ...read more

    As we have entered a New Year God reminds us through His Word that He is able, He will deliver us and He will lift us up, no matter what the year may hold or what challenges may come our way.

    The promise to us from the Lord for the year 2023 is taken from 2 Corinthians 9:8, “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:” (KJV) Let us meditate on God’s word to understand that God is able to do ...read more

    God wants to transform us into his image. It's his work but it's our work too. Paul gives five areas we need to address in putting off the old and putting on the new.

    INTRODUCTION In several of Paul's letters to the churches, Paul starts with theological teaching and then moves on to practical instruction. He lays the theological foundations and sets out key theological truths. After that, he talks about how believers should live in the light of these ...read more

    It doesn't matter how gifted you are, it profits you nothing if the gift is not activated

    The Importance of Activating the Gift Paul encouraged Timothy to stir up the gift that was in him. This gift is the Holy Spirit. Paul understood that receiving the gift was not enough; it needed to be activated. Timothy had the responsibility to keep the gift stirred and active. In other words, he ...read more

    A wedding sermon for a young couple just out of college. I used a dual text, Genesis 2:18-24 and 1 Corinthians 13:4-7.

    Justin and Amanda, here you are, standing in front of this altar, surrounded by your family and friends, ready to make your vows as husband and wife.

    An annotated outline of a sermon about the two disciples on the road to Emmaus.

    Jesus had been raised from the dead. Here we read about one of His post resurrection appearances. Unaware Jesus had risen, all these two disciples knew was He had been crucified, His tomb was found empty and they were despondent. Though Jesus promised His disciples He would be raised from the dead ...read more

    The Crucifixion of Jesus is at the centre of the Message of the Gospel.

    The first Easter morning 2000 years ago must have begun with sadness. I can imagine the followers of Jesus waking up and remembering what had happened, recalling the horror of Friday, remembering that their friend was dead and thinking their dreams were shattered. But then a shout, He’s alive, the ...read more
