Parable of the Power Pole

20100206: Introduction by Pastor Donavon Kack: Speaker, Tim Carleton:  The comparisons of electrical power and God's power are many.  For instance, a storm comes and power poles are lost; the same thing can happen in our spiritual life.  Think about it as Tim walks us through the transformer's application.   We have to stay plugged in and are you ready to Share your light with others, for Him?

Men Always Ought to Pray

20100123: Speaker: Pastor Donavon Kack:  As a result of Israel's "never-the-less" they spent 40 years wondering in a desert.  We need to learn from their experience.  As a individuals, we need to listen quietly as we ask, "God, What is hindering You from hearing my prayers?"  Today, Pastor Kack presents to us the ingredients for answered prayer.  Don't loose heart, don't give up, God is always there.

Promises In Dark Hours

20100109: Our speaker today is Pastor Donavon Kack: King Hezakiah did not stand firm in what he believed; he was swayed by public opinion even when he knew what was right. And today scoffers willingly forget the signs and promises of God.  Jesus gave His promise about coming again when He was stripped to the bottom of His ministry.  Did He look like a King that would come back in power?  Listen to the evidence that His promises are true; He is faithful, He is coming again.

In Heaven's Eyes

20091226: Our speaker, Elder Ken Crawford, President of the Alaska Conference, is a born story teller.  The introduction is found in Luke 1 & 2, through Luke 15 where Jesus tells three beautiful parables. Then, the modern parable about Ann begins.  In the end, she dreams a dream ... her heart is melted by God's love for her ... "All of this is for You!"  In Heaven's Eye, you ARE the treasure; you are the sheep, the coin, the son ... apply Ann's parable to yourself, then Never Forget It.

So, You Think You're Ready?

20091219: Speaker, Pastor Donavon Kack's introduction to the sermon tells the story of how the birth of a baby transforms a mining camp.  How many of us have been transformed by the birth of a baby -- do you know that feeling?  And again, by the birth of another Baby that grew up, and died for us all?  "Joy to the World" He is coming back!  Are you getting ready, He'll be here soon ...

The Holy Spirit and Fire

20091212: Speaker, Pastor Donavon Kack:  "Where Is He?" they asked.  All Jerusalem was troubled.  "Where Is He?"  The star lead the wisemen to the Baby Christ when no one else could; they were convicted that The Christ was due to be born!  Saul of Tarsus, too, was under a new conviction when Jesus got a hold of him.  The conviction received from the Holy Spirit trumps everything making your life new; if you will seek and ask for it, as the wisemen did, you will find Jesus.

The True Character of Christ-mas

20091205: Speaker, Doug Becker, Elder:  "Who can deny the profound impact the celebration of Christmas has made on us all?

As we examine the circumstances of His birth as foretold by the prophet Isaiah, what we can learn about the character of Christ?"

What Makes Jesus Wonder?

20091128: Speaker, Ikey Ogden, our Head Elder:  The Earth may have its Seven Wonders of the World, but ... what are the things evident in our lives that must cause Jesus to wonder?  Do we follow the examples that we have been given in the Old and New Testaments?  Do I make God wonder; do you make God wonder?  It does not have to be that way.  "God is our Refuge and our Strength ..."  Keep Him from wondering any longer.

A Platform to Build On

20091121: Speaker, Pastor Donavon Kack:  The tutor's job is to bring the student to school by whatever means necessary to accomplish the task.  Today's study takes us forward in time from Rahab rounding up her family, with the tutor's assistance, as the Isrealites march around Jericho, to the time of our decision "when the walls are coming down."  Listen to the tudor's prodings as you decide part of the wall will you build on?

Christians in the Military

20091114: Pastor Donavon Kack introduces Chaplain Tom Evans, our speaker for today.  What does God think of the military?  The military person understands authority, Jesus the Christ commended this trait.  Walk with us through His appreciation for the soldier.  Christ understood their commitment; He, Himself, left heaven to free each of us from Satan's prison camp.  All He wants is for you to go tell others!  What will your decision be?

05 War In Heaven

Too Blessed to be Depressed

20091107: Introduction is by Pastor Donavon Kack :  It is amazing what a personal testimony can do.  When you look into Jesus face, can you go away unchanged?  When we are turned to the Lord the veil lying on our hearts is taken away.  Can we be still?  No, we are transformed, everything about us is transformed; we can not keep it to ourselves!  Today's speakers are those in the congregation today who can not be still.  (Is that your testimony?)
