Good News - The Lord Can Heal You
Worship Service: Informal Family - July 04, 2015
The Lord performed many miracles of healing during His ministry. The reason He performed miracles of healing was to show us that He has the power to heal the soul. If we are really going to believe in the good news of spiritual healing, we have to believe that He can heal our soul and the soul of others. | By Rev.

Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 21, 2015
The Lord created men and women with gift particular to their gender. The gift the Lord gave to men is to be interested in and love ideas. He gave this gift to them in particular so that He could teach them about spirituality and religion. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAThe Purpose of Family
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - June 07, 2015
The purpose of the New Testament is to know that Jesus is Christ and the Son of God, and so we can live a life in His Name. The purpose of family is to raise children for heaven. Marriage was designed with all its potential to support that highest use. And marriage needs its own care, support, and guidance. The Lord ensures all people love their children, but only the spiritual can truly love their spouse. The Lord offers guidance to support the goal of a truly united marriage. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAYou Are the Salt of the Earth
Worship Service: Sermon only - May 31, 2015
This message considers what it will take for each of us to be able to be called, "Salt of the Earth." What are the qualities that we need to possess and how do we acquire these qualities? | By Rev. Garry B. Walsh | Phoenix, AZJudging and Being Judged
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - May 31, 2015
We make judgements about other people based on how they look, what they eat, how they raise their children, how they spend their time and money, and the list goes on. What should we do with these thoughts? Are they bad? People often quote Jesus saying, “Judge not, that you be not judged” (Matthew 7:1). But He also said, “Do not judge according to the appearance, but judge with just judgement” (John 7:24). Join us this Sunday as we explore with this important aspect of human relationships. | By Rev. Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSAPurpose of Government
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - May 31, 2015
The purpose of government is to observe and provide order. This is best done when we focus on the public good and through that the individual. Public good should be understood in a hierarchy of good ascending from civil, to moral, to spiritual. However, the most important truth is that the Lord governs all things. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PAMemorial Day - Purpose of a Soldier
Worship Service: Informal Family - May 24, 2015
The highest purpose of a soldier is love of country. Holding this purpose helps put the challenges and sacrifices in a spiritual context while also strengthening that love. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PABe the Church 3 - Repenting of Evil and Serving Others

We’ve been talking for the past two weeks about different essential aspects of being part of a church.

Malcolm G. Smith | Westville, RSABe the Church Part 1: "Worshipping the Lord & Caring in Community"
Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - April 19, 2015
What is the purpose of church? What does it mean to be part of a church? Are churches still relevant in the 21st century? These are some of the questions that we're going to be digging into this Sunday and in the two weeks that follow.

This week we are beginning a seven part series on the following words from Matthew 25: "For I was hungry and you gave Me food; I was thirsty and you gave Me drink; I was a stranger and you took Me in; I was naked and you clothed Me; I was sick and you visited Me; I was in prison and you came to Me."

Worship Service: Childrens Talk & Adult Sermon - February 01, 2015
There are three loves that all people have: heaven, world, and self. If these three are in the proper order, we are human. If these loves are out of order we are spiritually deformed and unhealthy. Arranging life to put the Lord and others as the first thing in our life makes us human. We do this through prayer, sacrifice, and following the example of our Lord Jesus Christ. | By Rev. Derrick Lumsden | Sarver, PADo We Only Give the Lord Our Dregs?
