The Power Of Savings Series

I want to talk about creating margin in our life this morning. Margin is when we have a little extra space that allows you to breath. It’s when I have a few extra minutes to enjoy life.

Should You Fear God? Series

Everything Falls Apart Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021

The story of what happened in the Garden of Eden is important – powerfully important. And I want to make you aware at the outset, that this is not just the story of the wrongdoings of two people. No, it’s the story of how the first two people’s wrongdoing affects you and me.

Powerful Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jun 19, 2021

Now … you want to talk about REAL power? You want to talk about power beyond our ability to imagine it? Beyond our ability to measure it or record it? If you want to talk about “real” power, you need to talk about the Source … the omnipotent … all powerful … all mighty … El Shaddai!

You want to talk about power? In August of 1883, a volcano erupted on the Island of Krakatoa. The initial blast sent a cloud of gas and debris 15 miles into the atmosphere.

A Lying Life Series

Contributed by C. Philip Green on Jan 24, 2025

Trusting His Guidance Series

Contributed by Apostle Dr. Belinda V. Broadnax on Oct 24, 2024

This sermon focuses on learning to trust God's guidance through His voice, even when the path is unclear or difficult. It explores how trust in His wisdom leads to a life of purpose and peace.

Trust is the foundation of any meaningful relationship, and the same is true of our relationship with God. Without trust, our walk with the Lord becomes filled with doubt, fear, and uncertainty. Proverbs 3:5-6 gives us a clear instruction: "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not ...read more

So, when we lived in Lower Lincoln, outside of Fredericton, we didn’t go ...read more
