    God’s Amazing Grace PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 30, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 105 views

    God’s grace is a free gift we cannot earn; through faith, we receive His love and acceptance, not by our efforts but by His mercy.

    Some of us walked in today with hearts like clenched fists—trying to hold it all together, trying to square the accounts with God, trying to make sense of a week that wore us thin. We wonder if grace has a limit, if mercy has a meter, if love has a ledger. We keep a mental checklist: pray more, try ...read more

     | 8,995 views

    Balancing the responsibility of the family and the church for vulnerable family members is discussed.

    In A World Gone Mad, Where Is God?

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Feb 28, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 8,932 views

    When we cry out "It's not fair," we are forgetting that God has fixed a day when He will judge the world in righteousness. Followers of the Christ must look to Him to make right the wrong that now permeates the world.

    “[God] has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed; and of this he has given assurance to all by raising him from the dead.” [1] Sexually frustrated men driving vans on city sidewalks intent on killing innocent and helpless women, out-of-control ...read more

    The Gospel Of "nice" Will Be The Death Of You

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 11, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,447 views

    The Gospel of Christ calls us to live boldly, not safely. God calls His people to stand firm in this holy Faith rather than seeking to make people like them.

    “Concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and our being gathered together to him, we ask you, brothers, not to be quickly shaken in mind or alarmed, either by a spirit or a spoken word, or a letter seeming to be from us, to the effect that the day of the Lord has come.

     | 9,715 views

    Although we do not know the precise day and hour of Christ's coming, in "Preparing for Christ's' Coming" we must be: 1) Alert (Matthew 24:37–42) and be 2) Ready (Matthew 24:43–44).

    Matthew 24:36-44. [36]"But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only. [37]For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. [38] For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying ...read more

    How do we, as followers of the Christ, respond to sin when it is exposed to us?

    “Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. Early in the morning he came again to the temple. All the people came to him, and he sat down and taught them. The scribes and the Pharisees brought a woman who had been caught in adultery, and placing her in the midst they said to him, ‘Teacher, this woman ...read more

    The sermon emphasizes that our true purpose is to know God personally, trusting Jesus as our Shepherd who lovingly guides, protects, and restores us.

    Some of us walked in today with a knot in the stomach and a prayer on the lips. Bills on the counter. Headlines on the phone. A diagnosis pending. A family strained. And yet, here we are, in a quiet room with a God who isn’t quiet about His love. He speaks. He calls. He carries. He cares. He’s not ...read more
