    Lord, What Do You Want Me To Do?

    Each and every one of us have a purpose. God desires for each of us to know Him though His Son. But beyond salvation, He has a plan for each of us. Eventually, we must ask the question Saul of Tarsus asked: "Lord, what do You want ME to do?"

    Key Verse: 6a Introduction Q: “Lord, what do you want me to do?” What a question! What a novel idea! Asking the Creator what He desires of His creation. You might say that Saul was a “religious man.” Actually he was a very religious man! He knew how to pray. He had devoted himself to the ...read more

    Ministry And Money: When The Budget Wants To Bully You

     | 6,404 views

    Discover two gems helpful to balancing ministry and money in this short sermon aimed to help church leaders stay faithful not fearful.

    Pastoring in America means dealing with the dollar. It’s what we have to come to grips with in a culture where “church” has largely become a business. In fact, some shepherds tragically view Washingtons and Lincolns just as necessary, if not more, than the Holy Spirit, people, or the Bible. Which ...read more

    No one is beyond God's redemption, and like Saul, who became Paul, we are all called to respond to God's transformative power, hope, and command to action.

    Good morning, church! As we gather together today, we turn our focus towards the transformative power of the Gospel, the hope it brings, and the call to action it demands. We'll be hanging out in Acts 9:6, where Saul, a fierce persecutor of the early church, has a life-changing encounter with Jesus ...read more

    God has a game plan for your life, but it’s up to you to choose to Love and serve Him and see that plan fulfilled.

    You Can’t Reach Home Until You Leave First Base By Pastor Jim May Genesis 1:1 tells us that in the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth.

    Where Are You?

    Contributed by Nickolas Kooi on Jun 7, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 15,741 views

    This sermon examines God's question in Genesis 3:9: "Where are you?" It looks at where are Adam and Eve in relation to God. It looks at where we are, and where God can be found. This sermon also uses the analogy of Hide and Seek to advance the thought.

    For some reason, it seems that every kid loves the game, “Hide and Seek.” My siblings have always enjoyed it. My cousins have always liked it, and it is one of my nephew’s favorite games. The children of my friends always want me to play it with them as well. Kids love to hide, and then to be ...read more

    Christmas Eve - What Do You Want For Christmas? Series

     | 1,146 views

    Using the popular song by Mariah Carey "All I Want For Christmas Is You" this Christmas Eve devotion focuses the fact that all God wanted for Christmas... is you.

    OPEN: There was a preacher who said that (when he was young) he was an only child - for the first few Christmases. As a result, he got the impression that Christmas was all about HIM, and he said “That was the essence of real joy. I thought Christmas was all about me, and all I wanted for ...read more

    There are times in our lives we find ourselves in difficult situations. When we would rather be anywhere else, but even in those situations God can be glorified and you might just find out you were there for a reason!

    I remember as a kid traveling and stopping at rest areas that had the map of the state we were in and seeing the little arrow with the words, “You are here”. • You can find it in mall maps • And now most of our cell phones have that capability Yet despite all of our ...read more

    Why I chose to live under the Kingdom of God rather than Satan's Kingdom

    Which World Do You Want to Call Home? Introduction: This world is a tough place to live. We are told as Christians this is not our home but that we have a heavenly citizenship. We belong to the Lord. Heaven is our home. Unfortunately, those in this world who do not know Christ belong to the devil. ...read more

    Everything You Wanted To Know About Revenge But Never Thought You'd Hear In Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Dec 2, 2004
    based on 45 ratings
     | 6,554 views

    The desire for revenge and justice is part of being in God’s image. But, because sin corrupts us, and because our lives are intended to center around God, we must defer revenge (and sometimes justice) to Him.

    Everything You Wanted to Know About Revenge But Never Thought You’d Hear in Church (Romans 12:14, 17-21) 1. Today’s sermon has little to do with the subject of forgiveness. 2. The Bible is clear that forgiveness is crucial to the Christian life; it is the hallmark of our faith. 3. Not long ...read more

    What is coming out to others, is who you are.

    The only thing that can come out of you is what’s inside of you. Everyone tries to blame what they said is because someone made them angry or mad.
