    Be A Man Of God Series

    Father's Day: It’s important to consider masculinity, because how we act as a man is the example that we’re going to pass on to our children. This passage looks at the advice that Paul gave young Timothy on how to “be a man of God.”

    This Father’s Day, we’re going to look at being a man. Masculinity is under attack in America. Just do an Internet search on “masculinity” and see how many times the term “toxic masculinity” pops up; but masculinity can be a good thing when understood properly and when taught to boys and ...read more

    Why – To The Ends Of The Earth? Series

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Nov 19, 2019
     | 5,128 views

    The final sermon of this series, "The Ends of the Earth," and in preparation of dedicating over 700 shoeboxes for Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child. It is all for the glory of God.

    Today we are asking the question, Why must we all be focused on getting the Gospel out, not just here and around our nation, but to the ends of the earth? First of all, we are commanded. Acts 1:8b (NKJV) ... you shall be witnesses to Me ... The Command is clear – “You shall be witnesses to ...read more

    Mercy Instead Of Sacrifice

    The Pharisees criticized Jesus for eating with tax collectors. They thought they were better than Matthew, as they went around acting holy. Outward show doesn’t determine a person’s relationship with God. It's about the heart.

    This morning I am going to touch on the subject of “hypocrisy.” It’s difficult to preach on this subject matter because none of us are without some form of hypocrisy in our life. Jesus told us not to point out the splinter in our brother’s eye until we have removed the log in our own eye (Matthew ...read more

    This is the second of a series on the book of Romans. It focuses on our inability in any way to achieve grace, which of course is a gift freely given through Jesus Christ.

    Last Sunday Mike and I provided the snack supper for the children and youth. I went to pick up the 10 pizzas I had ordered which Little Ceasars had given me a great deal on of $5 a pizza because I was buying them for a church function with $53 dollars in cash in my hand. The bill was $53.69. I, ...read more

    We are given the gift of relationships. What steps need to be taken to restore fractured, broken relationships, restoring them to where God intends them to be?

    - Sibling rivalries as children! Somewhat funny looking back - Healthy rivalries – hockey! (Toronto and Montreal) - Tragic when sibling rivalries end up with broken homes and families. They can live within miles of each other but behave as if there is a continent between them. - Deeper lesson of ...read more

    Angels We Have Heard On High

    based on 8 ratings
     | 5,764 views

    The message of the angels on Christmas is a message to dispel fear, bring cheer, and be shared.

    Angels We Have Heard On High Luke 2:8-20 INTRO.: This may be the oldest of all the Christmas carols we sing. There is evidence, although disputed, that this carol was sung in the Church at Rome as early as 129 BC. It’s inspiring to think we may be singing a carol nearly 2000 years old. Of course, ...read more

    You can't have evangelism without service and you can't have service without evangelism!

    Mark 9:30-37 God's purpose to Seek and Save that which is Lost. The purpose of evangelism is to tell other about Christ, as someone told you. Don’t wait till you are standing by someone’s casket and wondering if they are saved or not….Found out today, asked them today!! The Purpose Of Service ...read more

    Architecture Of The Church

    Contributed by Charles Mallory on Aug 24, 2023
     | 1,402 views

    Jesus establishes Peter as the first building block of the Church upon his confession that Jesus is the Son of God. We, too, have that same opportunity to become a building stone in the Church.

    CHURCH! THAT WORD, ALONE, BRINGS ABOUT MANY DIFFERENT IDEAS AND UNDERSTANDINGS. I HAVE HEARD IT DESCRIBED AS JUST A BUILDING OR AS A PLACE CHRISTIANS GO ON SUNDAY. PERHAPS, THOSE DEEPER IN FAITH WOULD CALL IT A GROUP OF BELIEVERS. WE ALL HAVE DIFFERENT CONCEPTS OF WHAT “CHURCH” MEANS TO US. IF WE ...read more

    Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Feb 28, 2023
     | 2,083 views

    Bible is silent about the description of the family of Jesus. However, there are a few references to Joseph, Mary, and her children to learn a few things about the family of Jesus. Jesus was pictured as a young man walking to the Jordan for Baptism and nothing else is known to us.

    Mark 3:20-35 Jesus and His Family in Mark FAMILY OF JESUS: Bible is silent about the description of the family of Jesus. However, there are a few references to Joseph, Mary, and her children that help us to learn a few things about the family of Jesus. Jesus was pictured as a young man walking to ...read more

    The first book of the New-Testament, The Gospel of Matthew was written by Matthew – The Sinner a.k.a. Matthew - The Tax Collector.

    When we turn to Matthew, we turn to the book which may well be called the most important single document of the Christian faith, for, in it, we have the fullest and the most systematic account of the life and the teachings of Jesus. - William Barclay INTRODUCTION Mathew 9:9-13 Often we dwell on ...read more

    Win By Losing (January 29, 2023 Version)

    Just think, the cross was a place of execution. It was therefore considered a place of defeat---the final word for the executed and a warning from those who did the executing.

    WIN BY LOSING Text: I Corinthians 1:18 -25 1 Corinthians 1:18-31  For the message about the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.  (19)  For it is written, "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the ...read more
