    Friends, welcome. Some weeks feel like a whirlwind of receipts and reminders, alerts and anxieties. The heart starts hoarding headlines and to-do lists, and before we know it, we wake up with a soul that feels thin. Then Jesus steps into the room of our hearts with words that steady us and set us ...read more

     | 5,067 views

    There are two types of people, the ones who have sold out to the Lord, and those who have the desire but refuse to let go of their worldy ways. Only one is going to make their home in the kingdom.

    Acts 8:5-9:1 5 Then Philip went down to the city of Samaria, and preached Christ unto them. 6 And the people with one accord gave heed unto those things which Philip spake, hearing and seeing the miracles which he did. 7 For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice, came out of many that were ...read more

  • Behold Your King! (John 18:28-19:16) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Apr 6, 2022
     | 2,366 views

    When we look at Jesus during his trial, what do we see? Who do we see? Also, Pilate should not be read sympathetically. He's not open-minded, and he fears the wrong thing/person.

    When you read commentators on the Gospel of John, there are two very different ways to understand our story today, about Jesus' trial before Pilate. Everyone agrees that the focus of today's story, in many ways, is on Pilate. He is the only one in every scene. He's like the glue that ...read more

  • The Test Of Spiritual Maturity

    Contributed by Abraham Shanklin on Jan 31, 2004
    based on 35 ratings
     | 11,599 views

    John’s epistle has reminded us to exercise love (1 John 2:7–11)—the right kind of love. Now it warns us that there is a wrong kind of love, a love that God hates. This is love for what the Bible calls “the world.”

    The Test of Spiritual Maturity Scripture Reference: 1 John 2:12 – 17 Introduction A group of first-graders had just completed a tour of a hospital, and the nurse who had directed them was asking for questions. Immediately a hand went up. “How come the people who work here are always washing their ...read more

     | 12,471 views

    This message stresses the fact that you’ve got to be careful about whom you listen to… Who you let speak into your life… Who you let ‘give you a word…’ Because listening to the wrong people will mess you up…

    "Who Are You Listening To?" Genesis 3:1-5 Last week in the Marriage & Couples class we looked at how we “approach” our marriages, how we relate to our spouses… (Based on Genesis 3…) And it got me to thinking… When we communicate; what are we saying, but more importantly, who are we listening to…? ...read more

  • The Great Betrayal

    Contributed by Brian Bill on Feb 5, 2018
     | 10,005 views

    Judas first stole a few shekels and then made some more wrong choices until he was pulled deeper and deeper into depravity. Be careful about minimizing your sins because they may lead you to something even darker and more destructive.

    The month of February reminds me of my candidating weekend at Edgewood five years ago when you were checking me out and I was checking you out to see how God might be leading each of us. I think I preached at least five times, attended a number of groups and met with a ton of people. I still ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,712 views

    Jesus has given leaders to the church who are called to a lead through their Christian character and example; it is not a calling that all desire because it comes with great responsibility. It is also a calling that requires great respect.

    Message “The Noble Task of Leadership” 1 Timothy 3:1 Why do politicians get such a rough stick when it comes to their leadership? I don’t want you to answer out loud but I suspect, if we were to share our thoughts and answers, there would be many reasons … and a few of us might even start getting ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,532 views

    Sin is deadly in the end even though it may seem pleasurable in the beginning. Humans cannot determine what is right and wrong in the universe God created. It is beyond our limitations. So we can and must trust God. The question is will you trust him.

    Series Introduction: Middle Eastern people in the Bible, from Abraham to Paul, were as acquainted with covenants as we are with weddings. The Greeks and Romans did not have covenants. In fact, when the Jews translated the OT into Greek, they had to use the Greek word for “will” or ...read more
