Its Time To Be Ready The King Is Comming

Contributed by Mark Holdcroft on Feb 23, 2003

When Jesus moves in reviving power, He first cleanses the temple and removes the fruitless. Only the humble and watchful will survive.

Its time to be ready, the King is coming. Its about 30 AD. The place is Jerusalem. It is the month of Nissan and the sun is sweltering overhead. There is a large crowd gathering along the dusty highway and your peer over the heads of the people in front of you. The crowd is shouting Hallelujah ...read more

There's Gotta Be A First Series

Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jan 21, 2007

This is the first in a series of CSI messages and looks at what we can learn from Cain and Abel

It should have brought them together but instead it tore them apart. They both worshipped the same God, they had both offered their God a sacrifice and that is where it seemed to fall apart. Cain was a farmer, he toiled in the dirt and raised crops, his younger brother was a shepherd, and he ...read more

The prophet Zephaniah points us to the meaning of spiritual renewal

Today I want to begin with a question. How long has it been since you have felt God nudging you to follow him more closely?

Who Is Jesus

Contributed by Martyn Baxter on Nov 24, 2008

Who do people say that Jesus is? Who do you say that Jesus is?

There are two questions I want to point us in the direction of from this passage of scripture; Mathew ch 16 v 13 Jesus asks, “Who do people say that the son of man is?” And Mathew ch 16 v 15 where Jesus asks “But who do you say that I am?” We start the narrative with this discourse between Jesus ...read more

Am I My Brother's Keeper? Series

Contributed by David Spiegel on Mar 28, 2018

God approached Cain with the question, "Where is your brother?". This question was for Cain to be brought back to the truth of his situation! Cain’s response was a lie and he knew it. “I don’t know” and "Am I My Brother's Keeper"? Do we tell these lies?

This morning we will be continuing the series I’m calling “Questions” • We are looking at several famous questions that were asked in the Bible and what we can learn from them. • Last week we discussed one of the very first questions in the Bible, “Did God Really Say…?” • Just like us, once Satan ...read more

Cheap Talk And Free Speech Series

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 24, 2022

Words have power. And whether that power accomplishes good or evil depends on where it comes from, and what it is intended to do.

“Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me.” You’ve all heard that saying, haven’t you? We’ve probably all used it, in fact - usually when a child comes home from school upset because someone called her a bad name. We do distinguish between words and actions. That is what ...read more

The Seven Churches-Sardis Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Jan 4, 2026

The Lord didn't have much good to say about Sardis. Yet "even in Sardis", there were some genuine believers who wanted to live for our Lord, and did so!

The Seven Churches-Sardis Introduction: The year 1747, a park bench in Warsaw, Poland in the mid-1950’s, and a church in what’s now western Turkey. On the surface, there doesn’t seem to be a common thread, but the truth is that all of these refer to the church in Sardis. This church is the fifth ...read more

Our Refuge And Strength Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Dec 26, 2021

This is a sermon for Epiphany Sunday. I've linked Psalm 46 with the hymn "We Three Kings" as a way of reminding ourselves who this child/King is why He is worthy of any all the gifts we have to give Him.

Samuel could tell by the look on their faces that the elders weren’t making a social call to inquire about his health … and he was right. One of the elders cleared his throat. “Samuel … you are getting old and, well, no offense but we’re more than a little concerned about the future of our ...read more
