11.15.08 - Weird Requests of Jesus Have you ever noticed that Jesus requested things that did not make sense? For example, at a wedding when the celebratory wine ran out, His command to the servants was, "Fill the water pots with water." We, of course, know of the miraculous event to come, but those servants must have thought that Jesus was a little out of his realm of expertise. Today's talk explores a few of these scenarios and our response when God requires the same from us. |
|
10.26.08 - The Doctrine of Eternal Punishment Does Hell exist? What is it and who goes to it? Did Jesus talk about Hell, or was just some scare tactics of His followers? Today's talk deals with two false teachings and four important truths about eternal punishment. |
|
10.19.08 - Money, Money, Money 3 - Preparing for Christian Generosity Preparing for Christian Generosity - Just as with others, Christians have fallen prey to patterns of living that have diminished our ability and faithfulness to be generous. Today's talk explores ways that believers in Jesus can reorient the way that we live to be better prepared for opportunities to give. |
|
10.12.08 - Money, Money, Money 2 - Applying Christian Generosity Applying Christian Generosity- How can I be sure that my generosity will not leave me high and dry? If I give what I have will I have enough to give again? Can I give with confidence? Join Lead Pastor Marty Duren as we see the answers to these questions in the apostle Paul's communication with the church at Corinth. |
|
10.05.08 - Money, Money, Money 1- Understanding Christian Generosity Understanding Christian Generosity - With bad economic news all around, does the Bible have anything to say to us? Seeing the generosity of the Macedonian believers, as noted in 2 Corinthians, followers of Christ can learn much in these distressing time. Foremost is this: generosity is not a matter of what we have, but is a matter of the heart. |
|
09.28.08 - ILLUMINATE 4 - Living Witnesses What is the pattern left by Paul that we can use in building bridges to faith in the lives of those who do not know Christ? Understanding how to relate to different cultures and sub-cultures opens doors to the gospel that would otherwise have remained shut. |
|
09.21.08 - Assurance in Unsure Times In the midst of the financial meltdown that is threatening to undo our economy and throw the world into a recession who are we to trust? Is our hope found in stocks, bonds, CDs or real estate? The scripture teaches us not to be fearful, but to trust in the living God who made and cares for us. |
|
09.14.08 - ILLUMINATE 3 - Living Worship Is worship limited to believers' time together on a Sunday morning or in corporate worship elsewhere? We see in Romans 12 that this is not the case, but that worship is a life encompassing discipline. |
|
09.07.08 - ILLUMINATE 2- The Prayer of the Righteous What is prayer? To whom should we pray? Are all gods the same? These and other questions are considered today and Lead Pastor Marty Duren talks about prayer. |
|
08.31.08 - ILLUMINATE 1- Spiritual Exercise While Americans seem enamored with our physical condition, we need also to give thought to our spiritual condition. For true spiritual growth to take place in the life of each believer, it is necessary to place ourselves in the position to be prepared to hear from God. |
|
08.24.08 - My Best Sex Now, Part 3 - Sizzlin' Sizzlin' - With the biblical foundation of the first two messages of this series, we now look at the application. Can sex is marriage be exciting and passionate and if so, how do we make it and keep it that way? |
|
08.17.08 - My Best Sex Now, Part 2 The Old Testament book called Song of Solomon gives great insight to the sexual relationship in marriage. Throughout the book sensuality, love and sexuality are emphasized over and over. It is a great pattern for Christian marriages today. |
|
08.10.08 - My Best Sex Now, Part 1 In this first of the three part series, we examine what the Bible has to say about sex generally. The reality that God created sex and pronounced it "very good" is surprising to some as is the fact the Bible has many "thou shalts" about the subject, not merely an endless list of "thou shalt nots." |

|
07.20.08 - Grace Anatomy 12 - Priorities What was being measured by the false teachers in Galatia and did it matter? American Christianity has a tendency to fall prey to certain "standards of success" that more often than not lead to misplaced priorities. It's a temptation that Galatians helps us to avoid. |
|
07.13.08 - Grace Anatomy 11 - Practical Advice Paul usually ends his letters with practical application of the spiritual truths he's just taught. Galatians is no exception. In today's text, we learn about being encouraged, our responsibilities in bearing burdens and financial obligations. |
|
07.06.08 - Grace Anatomy 10 - Freedom Bears Fruit Our new life in Christ-life that has been freed from sin-is a life that bears spiritual fruit. Lead Pastor Marty Duren walks us today through Paul's list of evidences of the life under control of the Holy Spirit. |
|
06.29.08 - Grace Anatomy 9 - Battle Royal "Let's get ready to rumblllllle!!!" Getting beyond the power of our old nature is a difficult proposition, but through the power of the Holy Spirit we can overcome our past. |
|
06.22.08 - Grace Anatomy 8 - Freedom in Christ God's Word tells us that Christ has made us free, but why would He do such a thing? Are we free to do anything that we want to do? Listen to "Freedom in Christ" to understand how God has freed us and what is true as a result. |
|
06.15.08 - Grace Anatomy 7 - Promises, Promises If God had already promised salvation by faith, why did He bother to give the law? If the law was so important then what role did the promise play? What does it mean for us? |
|
06.08.08 - Grace Anatomy 6 - Bewitched Using language that brings out vivid ideas of sorcery, Paul asks the Galatians why they have settle for being under a spell? He reminds his readers that the power of the Holy Spirit did not come because of their obedience to Moses' law, but due to their faith in Christ. |
|
06.01.08 - Grace Anatomy 5 - Spiritual Shantytown Paul writes of the seriousness of going back to the law using a metaphor of rebuilding something that he has already destroyed. Using the imagery of a "shanty town" Lead Pastor Marty Duren reminds us of the powerlessness of the law to save. |
|
05.25.08 - Grace Anatomy 4 Ronnie Cansler |
|
05.18.08 - Grace Anatomy 3 - Grace and a Life Changed Paul's personal story is a vivid reminder of how grace changes the believer. All attempts to follow the law end up useless. Only grace can bring to us the changed life that God promises. |
|
05.11.08 - Grace Anatomy 2 - Desertion In today's talk we consider the decision of the new believers in Galatia to abandon grace as their way of relating to God. Their deception was something that really frustrated the apostle Paul. The passage makes it very, very clear that there is only one gospel. |
|
05.04.08 - Grace Anatomy 1- Atonement The grace of God cannot be earned or merited in any way and neither can it be fully understood and enjoyed apart from the grace of God in salvation. Join Pastor Marty Duren as we begin a new study through the New Testament book of Galatians focusing on various aspects of God's grace--His unmerited favor. |
|
04.27.08 - Pick Your Poison 4 - The Devil Wears Prada: Pride and Downfall Scripture warns that, "Pride goes before destruction," but does it? How the supposed strength of self-sufficiency is really the most destructive weakness. |
|
04.20.08 - Pick Your Poison 3 - Bad to the Last Drop: Grief and the Death of the Soul The inability to get beyond a life-sized calamity has brought many a person's existence to a screeching halt. While here in body, many are dead in soul because of a grief that never ends. Can God heal us from this? |
|
04.13.08 - Pick Your Poison 2 - There Will Be Blood: Internal Destruction and Stress Health experts have warned us for years that stress leads to illnesses of all kinds. Can we realistically hope to deal with stress in the rat race world in which we live? |
|
04.06.08 - Pick Your Poison 1 - Collateral Damage: The Blowback of Bitterness When we refuse to forgive wrongs against us the bitterness that ensues does not affect only ourselves. This is one poison that spreads. |
|
03.30.08 - Understanding Worship - Worship of the Godhead How do we relate to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit in worship? Today's talk is a biblical approach to worshiping each person of the Trinity. |
|
03.23.08 - What Does Easter Mean? In this time of conflicting opinions regarding religion and religious figures, does Easter have any valid meaning? Is it merely the cultural celebration of eggs and bunnies? Today's talk explores three meanings of Easter as understood in the Bible. |
|
03.16.08 - Understanding Worship - True and False Worship Can we worship the right God in the wrong way? Does the Bible give examples of worship? Join us in an examination of how "true worshipers" respond to God's character and works. |
|
03.09.08 - Understanding Worship - What is worship? Over the last dozen years worship has undergone a renewal worldwide... but what exactly is worship? This teaching looks at worship in the Old and New Testaments examining its aspects during each period with an emphasis on submission to God as both the form and result of worship. |
|
03.02.08 - New Testament Church Leadership A brief overview of the offices of Pastor and Deacon from the New Testament. This talk was given in preparation of our body to select men to serve as deacons. |
|
02.24.08 - What in the World is the Church? Community: Who has time for that? God has made us in His image and thus we were designed to live in community. In Proverbs 13:20 the Bible shares with us a principle that if applied properly will help us to grow Spiritually, and live out community in the way that God desires. What are structured relationships and how can they help me grow spiritually? |
|
02.17.08 - What in the World is the Church? - How Far We've Come Is society on a track of ultimate progress? Scripture indicates that this is not the case and, in fact, that "evil men and seducers will grow worse and worse." To counteract this path, the church has been given the responsibility to take the gospel to everyone. |
|
02.10.08 - What in the World is the Church? - The Nature of the Church We look at the starting of the church by Jesus Himself. Scripture teaches that the church is both "called out" and "sent out." What does this mean to the average church? |
|
02.03.08- What in the World is the Church?- Living as the Body of Christ What is the 80-20 rule and how is it overcome in the local church? Whose responsibility is it to accomplish the ministry? These questions are answered from Ephesians 4. |
|
01.27.08 The Basis for Belief - Who is Jesus Christ? How Jesus Christ forms the basis of the Christian argument for God's existence. It is reasonable to conclude that Jesus was God in human flesh. |
|
01.20.08 The Basis for Belief-Dirty Laundry A major objection to believing in the God of the Bible is the way that Christians have acted through the centuries. What is our response to the inquisition, the Salem witch trials and slavery? |
|
01.13.08 The Basis for Belief-God's Existence Explored, Part 2 Is science capable of proving or disproving the existence of God? How is information theory changing the way that we view intelligence? Faith's role in a relationship to God. |
|
01.06.08 The Basis for Belief-God's Existence Explored, Part 1 Is it reasonable to believe in God or does it involve a blind leap of faith? What is truth and why does it matter? Can we even know what is true? |
