Everything You Could Ever Want
David Gatley

The old Sears Catalogue, Amazon, the internet...offering everything to mankind, but what is it that we should really want? God has given us so much already and has so much more to give. That is everything we could ever want!

Making a Difference
James Ellis

There are two principles that can help young people in the Church make a difference in the world right now as well as in the future. Prepare yourself to lead and set a good example.

When the Unknown God Becomes Known
Bruce Gore

Paul’s message to the Athenians about their worship of an unknown god reaches far into the future. It’s an incredible message of the removal of the blindness currently affecting most of mankind.

Our Rest With God
David Treybig

The physical rest we enjoy on the weekly Sabbath anticipates a future rest we will have with God. In this sermon we will consider how the weekly Sabbath ties in with having this rest with God, when we enter this rest with God and where this rest with God takes place.

The Second Exodus: Bringing God’s People Home
Ken Giese

The fate of Israel and the fate of all nations are intertwined. It is not a matter of salvation for Israel and judgment for other nations—it is a matter of judgment and salvation for all nations and all people. Imagine welcoming billions into God’s family!

Healing Humanity
David Gatley

A “sign” is an “object, quality, or event whose presence or occurrence indicates the probable presence or occurrence of something else” (Oxford). This sermon will explore several objects, qualities and events that are relevant to the Millennium. 

Judgment
Steven D. Moody

The vast bulk of humanity will be judged when this day is a reality. They will be judged just as we are being judged now. So, what is judgment? Jesus Christ judges all to see if they are becoming like Him, as the Father said being “conformed to the image of His Son.” Are we truly growing in righteousness?
