When the Church is the Church

In this message from 1 Corinthians 11:17-34, Dr Richie Allen preached a sermon entitled “When the Church is the Church”. When the church is really who God has called her to be inside the walls of its corporate worship gatherings, the body of Christ is edified and encouraged. Leaders are developed and light is displayed for a dark world to see. We talk often about being the church outside of the walls, but are we also being the church inside of the walls?

Guidelines for Gray Areas

In this message from 1 Corinthians 10:22-11:1, Dr Richie Allen preached a sermon called “Guidelines for Gray Areas”. Is everything black and white in your life or do from time to time encounter some “gray areas” where you may not know exactly what the Lord would want you to do. There’s good news! The apostle Paul, inspired by the Holy Spirit, gives us some principles that we can apply to help us navigate these gray areas.

Spiritual Pressure that Prepares us for Winning Part 2

In this message from 1 Corinthians 10:11-13, Dr Richie Allen preached a sermon entitled “Spiritual Pressure that Prepares us for Winning”. In the process of turning a lump of coal to a diamond, pressure is needed. What is the purpose of trials? God’s Word never fails to point to the way of escape and it may not be a door to escape the trial as much as it is a Person who is faithful in the midst of trial.

Spiritual Pressure that Prepares us for Winning Part 1

In this Part 1 message from 1 Corinthians 10:11-13, Dr Richie Allen preached a sermon entitled “Spiritual Pressure that Prepares us for Winning”. In life there are critical junctures where we can do one of two things. We can in faith embrace the test that God has prepared for us and all it to develop us. Or we can respond in disbelief and fall into temptation that satan uses to destroy us.

Spiritual Privileges that Should Promote Winning

In this message from 1 Corinthians 10:1-5, Dr Richie Allen preached a sermon entitled “Spiritual Privileges that Should Promote Winning”. Just as the Lord led the Israelites by a pillar of fire by night and a cloud by day to where He desires us to go, the Lord leads His people today. What privileges we have as He continues to make us into the image of His Son, Jesus!

How Do You Look?

In this message from 1 Corinthians 4:1-5, Dr Richie Allen preached a sermon entitled “How Do You Look?”. We shouldn’t think to highly of church leaders, they are just servant and stewards of God who are under-rowers for the church. As we pray for wind to blow to sail the ship in the right direction, we are to keep rowing hard and have the right perspective of ourselves as well. At the end of the day, the approval of one person- Jesus Christ, should be the only thing we should be concerned about.

Your Building Permit Has Been Issued

In this message from 1 Corinthians 3:10-17, Dr Richie Allen preached a message entitled “Your Building Permit Has Been Issued”. Whether we know it or not, every believer is making a contribution to the Kingdom of God. They can either contribute something of value like marble or something that is worthless like straw. There will be a day when stand before the Lord and our contributions will be revealed with fire to test the quality of our work. If our contributions remain, we will receive a reward. If our contributions are burned up, they will suffer loss.
