    Jehoshaphat’s Prayer – Humble, God Honouring, Public And Effective Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 12, 2022
     | 5,297 views

    A period of trial or testing will sort out the spiritual fibre of a man. That which confronts on the outside determines what truly resides on the inside. The weakling caves in. The coward hides away in his room pretending.. The unstable person panics, BUT Jehoshaphat prayed!

    JEHOSHAPHAT’S PRAYER – HUMBLE, GOD HONOURING, PUBLIC AND EFFECTIVE THE PRAYER OF A RIGHTEOUS KING AVAILS MUCH {{2Chronicles 20:1-4 “Now it came about after this, that the sons of Moab and the sons of Ammon, together with some of the Meunites, came to make war against Jehoshaphat.

    The Beginning Of Wisdom Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Oct 2, 2022
     | 3,520 views

    This is the opening sermon for a series based on The Book of Proverbs. I thought it would be a good idea to start a series based on the preeminent book of wisdom literature by discussing and defining what the book means by "wisdom" starting with the first chapter of The Book of Proverbs.

    [Hold up Bible.] I love this book. You’ve heard me refer to it as “The Owner’s Manual.” It contains stories, history, poetry, adventure, drama. It contains hymns. It contains theology, philosophy, and it contains wisdom. Every book in the Bible is there for a reason. Believe it or not, not ...read more

    In God We Trust

    “Do not be anxious” about what you will eat and drink. “Do not be anxious” about what you will wear. “Do not be anxious” about tomorrow

    It’s so appropriate that all our money has the motto, “In God We Trust.” To understand why it’s there, you have to go all the way back to the Civil War when a Pennsylvania pastor requested the Secretary of the Treasury Salmon P. Chase, place a Christian motto on our currency. Because of this ...read more

    Whether it is two young Mormons who knock on your door or you decide to read the Qur’an for yourself, searching for the real answers in life is very different than most of our life’s pursuits.

    When the crowds were increasing, he began to say, “This generation is an evil generation. It seeks for a sign, but no sign will be given to it except the sign of Jonah. For as Jonah became a sign to the people of Nineveh, so will the Son of Man be to this generation. The queen of the South will ...read more

    As we approach the chaos of the end of the age, stay true to the Lord, stay calm in the crisis, and stay strong in the faith.

    To start a discussion on core values, a youth pastor in Saskatchewan, Canada, asked his youth group: “What would you do if your doctor told you that you had only 24 hours to live?” The students talked about being with friends and family, and the discussion seemed headed in the right direction.

    I Am The Good Shepherd Series

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Aug 1, 2021
     | 2,877 views

    We come to know Christ in the same way that sheep came to know their shepherd: by experience, by following him year after year, by learning that we can love and trust him. We come to know that He will bring us to places of safety, and that He will be with us always.

    Nobody enjoys feeling like they’re just a number. But this tends to happen when you deal with a big organization, like a bank or the government. It feels like to them, you’re just another account number, just another taxpayer. Sometimes the bank will send you a nice letter, “We really care about ...read more

    Sleep In Heavenly Peace

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Aug 15, 2021
     | 5,255 views

    I read an article where the writer posed a question: "what keeps you up at night?" It's too early to think about Christmas songs but I thought, 'what better sleep could there be than to sleep in heavenly peace?' Let's see how.

    SLEEP IN HEAVENLY PEACE There are times when it's hard to get to sleep. It can be because we had caffeine too late in the day or we had a snack too close to bedtime and now we're paying for it. Then there are other reasons-you have a deadline to meet and you're not ready. You have an ...read more

    Today we’ll see the greatness of David’s faith through his heart. And what we will discover are four heart characteristics David possessed that revealed this faith.

    The Triumphal Entry

    If I were to ask you if you ever felt out of place, or like you didn’t match the expectations that people had of you, how many of you could relate to that statement? I know that I certainly can!

    Roles Models of Faithful Service

    Role models are an interesting thing in today’s world. The people that we look too as examples in our society, and that children look too as they grow up, are not always ones that we SHOULD be looking up too. Charles Barkley in 1993 said, “I’m not a role model… just because I dunk a basketball ...read more
