    Scripture For the next four Sundays I plan to preach a new series of sermons, which I have titled, Wholehearted Generosity. Now, what is “wholehearted generosity”?

  • Christian Compassion Believes The Best About The Worst

    Delivered as if Ananias were telling his story about encountering Paul: The Spirit calls us to believe that others can be changed, that if we do not go to them the consequences are large, and that others need a human touch from us.

    I had always prided myself on understanding people. I had always thought I knew enough about the human mind that I could predict what a man would be like on the basis of what he had always done. After all, if a person is a thief when he is a child, you expect that he will be a cheating thief when ...read more

    God’s call is for those of us who think that looking good is sufficient to go share the Gospel; and to those who are discipled to be alert to the potential in those whom God has placed in our paths.

    I heard this week about a very, very special automobile. It was built in the 1920’s by the Italian manufacturer Bugatti, and it was designed to be sold to the outrageously wealthy. This car was equipped with 450 horses under the hood; it was some 22 feet long and weighed about 6000 pounds. It was ...read more

    We talk so much about the Apostle Paul, don't we? But we rarely talk about the man who was instrumental in Paul’s life. Find out how you can make a difference in others' lives. I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.

    You Can Make a Difference! Text: Acts 9:10-19 Many times when we read this chapter we focus on the conversion and calling of Paul, but Ananias is often ignored. Hebrew: Hannaniah = ‘Yahweh has been gracious’. Ananias is mentioned only in association with Saul’s conversion in Scripture (in the ...read more

    The Body of Christ functions best when individual believers have an attitude of "yes" toward God.

    AWKWARD OBEDIENCE (Acts 9:10-19) 1. Life has its awkward or distasteful moments. A recent Time article read: 2. "Have economic times gotten so bad that some of the dead are going unburied? Several large counties across the country are experiencing unprecedented increases in the number of ...read more

  • The Insignificant Servant Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Aug 14, 2009
    based on 13 ratings
     | 12,878 views

    God uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things. He orchestras divine appointments to accomplish His will. We are called to trust and obey Him. Be amazed at what God can do with our willingness to obey.

    The obedience of one man changes everything. And he is almost an insignificant man. • In the middle of a very dramatic, miraculous story of change, a quite unknown man appears. • It’s easy to miss him, and even if you’ve heard the story of Paul on the road to Damascus many times before, it’s ...read more

  • The Light Of His Presence-Part 2 Series

     | 3,062 views

    1) Fervency in supplication (Acts 9:10-12), 2) Faithfulness in service (Acts 9:13-17a), 3) The Filling of the Spirit (Acts 9:17b), 4) Fellowship with the saints (Acts 9:18-19), and 5) Fervency in speaking (Acts 9:20)

    Following instructions can often be perplexing. In cooking, assembling products or even a list that someone else left for you, the instructions at times seems strange. In Acts 9, nothing which Christ could have given Ananias to do would have surprised him more than the duty with which he was ...read more

    Like Saul of Tarsus, Christ calls us to dramatic change so we might join in God's work.

    An old farmer liked to brag around town that he could command his mule with nothing more than a few soft words; no whips or prods necessary. She would respond, he claimed, with nothing more than gently spoken commands. Of course people were skeptical, so one day his buddy down at the feed store ...read more

    A Countercultural Mission Acts 9:1-22 In Dayton, Ohio, attorney Derrick Farmer gave a motivational talk to at-risk teens. Derrick is 48 years old, and has been an attorney since 1999.

    A study of what the scripture indicates is the real physical thorn in Paul’s flesh
