Sermon Notes:
“As soon as Jesus heard the news, he left in a boat to a remote area to be alone. But the crowds heard where he was headed and followed on foot from many towns. Jesus saw the huge crowd as he stepped from the boat, and he had compassion on them and healed their sick. That evening the disciples came to him and said, “This is a remote place, and it’s already getting late. Send the crowds away so they can go to the villages and buy food for themselves.” But Jesus said, “That isn’t necessary—you feed them.” “But we have only five loaves of bread and two fish!” they answered. “Bring them here,” he said. Then he told the people to sit down on the grass. Jesus took the five loaves and two fish, looked up toward heaven, and blessed them. Then, breaking the loaves into pieces, he gave the bread to the disciples, who distributed it to the people. They all ate as much as they wanted, and afterward, the disciples picked up twelve baskets of leftovers. About 5,000 men were fed that day, in addition to all the women and children!” Matthew 14:13-21 NLT
Give God what you got and He will take care of what you don’t got.

Nehemiah saw the need for rebuilding and understood the power of collective effort and divine guidance.
"Then said I unto them, Ye see the distress that we are in, how Jerusalem lieth waste, and the gates thereof are burned with fire: come, and let us build up the wall of Jerusalem, that we be no more a reproach. Then I told them of the hand of my God which was good upon me; as also the king's words that he had spoken unto me. And they said, Let us rise up and build. So they strengthened their hands for this good work." - Nehemiah 2:17-20 (KJV)

Take Risks.
Don’t Be Trapped by Fear.
”People are trapped by their fear of others; those who trust the LORD are secure.” Proverbs 29:25 CEB

My Mouth Matters
Monday Jun 03, 2024
Monday Jun 03, 2024
In this sermon, we are challenged to confront the negativity that often flows from our mouths, recognizing its potential to corrupt our entire being. Through insightful guidance, we learn to handle negativity before it handles us, empowering ourselves to speak life, encouragement, and positivity into our lives and the lives of others. Join us as we affirm ourselves in the knowledge that our words hold the key to unlocking the abundant life that God intends for us!
Sermon Notes:
- We can make a large horse go wherever we want by means of a small bit in its mouth. And a small rudder makes a huge ship turn wherever the pilot chooses to go, even though the winds are strong. In the same way, the tongue is a small thing that makes grand speeches. But a tiny spark can set a great forest on fire. And among all the parts of the body, the tongue is a flame of fire. It is a whole world of wickedness, corrupting your entire body. It can set your whole life on fire, for it is set on fire by hell itself. People can tame all kinds of animals, birds, reptiles, and fish, but no one can tame the tongue. It is restless and evil, full of deadly poison. Sometimes it praises our Lord and Father, and sometimes it curses those who have been made in the image of God. And so blessing and cursing come pouring out of the same mouth. Surely, my brothers and sisters, this is not right! Does a spring of water bubble out with both fresh water and bitter water? Does a fig tree produce olives, or a grapevine produce figs? No, and you can’t draw fresh water from a salty spring.“ James 3:3-12 NLT
- Affirm Yourself
- ”The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will eat its fruit.“ Proverbs 18:21 NIV
- Handle Negativity Before It Handles You.

He Promised Power!
Monday May 20, 2024
Monday May 20, 2024
Welcome to this special Pentecostal Sunday sermon with Pastor Ben Bonner. In today's message, we take a deeper look into the transformative power of the Holy Spirit as described in the Book of Acts.
Sermon Notes:
”Once when he was eating with them, he commanded them, “Do not leave Jerusalem until the Father sends you the gift he promised, as I told you before. John baptized with water, but in just a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit.” So when the apostles were with Jesus, they kept asking him, “Lord, has the time come for you to free Israel and restore our kingdom?” He replied, “The Father alone has the authority to set those dates and times, and they are not for you to know. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you. And you will be my witnesses, telling people about me everywhere—in Jerusalem, throughout Judea, in Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 1:4-8 NLT
”When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God, they sent Peter and John to Samaria. When they arrived, they prayed for the new believers there that they might receive the Holy Spirit, because the Holy Spirit had not yet come on any of them; they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.“ Acts 8:14-17 NIV
