Lesson 16: For We Will Be Rejoined With Them When Christ Returns Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Nov 12, 2018

Isaiah Saw The Cross Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Dec 16, 2018

A Christmas Sermon that points to the cross. The cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but it the main focus of God's message of salvation. But the cross is not a comforting symbol, so why would God use it as the symbol of our faith?

OPEN: I once read about an evening chapel service at Christian summer camp. The preacher was forcefully telling the 4th & 5th graders how Jesus had been betrayed, arrested, beaten and ultimately died on the cross. His message was so powerful, that a hushed silence fell across the young ...read more

A Fresh Start (Part Two)

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jan 14, 2019

Last week I talked about how we may need a fresh start. But it's not so easy. We may have a hard time making the changes that are necessary for a fresh start. But sometimes, we may not need a total fresh start, we may just need a restart.

A FRESH START (part two) Last week I talked about how we may need a fresh start for various reasons-relationship problems, job loss, trouble with the law, etc. So, we change locations, find a new job, start getting connected with new people, etc. Obviously the best fresh start we can make is ...read more

Have You Any Room Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Dec 1, 2019

There was no room to be found for Mary and Joseph to stay in Bethlehem? Seriously? You'd think someone would have taken pity on a VERY pregnant woman that day, but no one did. Why not?

Several years ago, a church held a Christmas pageant with a group of 4 year-olds. Everything went along pretty well until Mary and Joseph “arrived” at the inn. The 4 year-old Joseph asked: “Do you have any room for us?”. “No,” replied the innkeeper, “the inn is full.” “But it’s so cold outside, ...read more

Jesus' Bff Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 26, 2020

Jesus showed up 4 days late for Lazarus' funeral. Why? And what can that mean to us as Christians?

For example “LOL” means (wait for the audience to respond) – that’s right “Laugh Out Loud.” LOL is simply shorthand for a term that ...read more

Wisdom From God Series

Contributed by Rev. Duraimony Dickson on Feb 6, 2020
