    A Christian Passover Seder

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Apr 11, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 92 views

    This Passover Seder (service) has been adapted and "Christianized," to remember and celebrate how believers have been set free from the bondage of sin and brought forth into the promised land of eternal life in Christ.

    REMOVAL OF THE LEAVEN – Have Leavened Bread Hidden Leader: Welcome to our Passover Seder. Let us ready our hearts to celebrate and tell the story of deliverance, freedom, and redemption. We must all consider ourselves to be like the Hebrew slaves in Egypt, meaning we must understand ourselves to ...read more

    An Extraordinary Commission (Part 1)

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Apr 9, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 94 views

    Does Jesus still call and empower believers to do bold and amazing things in His name, like healing the sick, raising the dead, and casting out demons? Does this passage only apply to the first apostles, or can it be applied to us?

    I have entitled our sermon this morning, “An Extraordinary Commission,” and this is Part 1 of a two-part message. I want to begin by saying that I was raised in a small country church with a pastor who loved the Lord and His people, and proclaimed only the basics, like sin, repentance, salvation, ...read more

    The Harvest Is Plentiful

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Mar 12, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 329 views

    Jesus modeled how we should be sensitive to the needs of others, be moved with compassion, and see people as ready for the harvest. Rather than praying for others to do the job, we should be engaged too.

    Allow me to open our message with an illustration. In his book entitled The Kingdom Focused Church, Gene Mims shares the following account: “After Marco Polo returned from the magnificent imperial court of Kublai Khan in 1926, he wrote that the mighty Khan asked him to request that the Pope send ...read more

    Exercising And Exorcising

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Jan 8, 2025
    based on 2 ratings
     | 305 views

    In this passage, we see two blind men who had to "exercise" their faith to receive their sight. However, we see another kind of exercise in this passage; or rather, “exorcise,” as Jesus exorcised a demon from a man who was mute.

    You have probably heard someone say before that we need to “exercise” our faith. In Hebrews chapter 12, we read, “Let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith” (Hebrews 12:1b-2a). Jesus is both the author and finisher. He is ...read more

    Navigating The Ebb And Flow

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Dec 24, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 305 views

    Jesus shared words to help John's disciples navigate change, as they were dealing with the loss of their leader. He also addressed the change of grace over legalism. This passage can be applied to change within the church.

    I have entitled our message this morning, “Navigating the Ebb and Flow.” The expression “ebb and flow” is an idiom used to describe periods of highs and lows, and growth and decline, just like the rising and falling of the tides. It is essentially the idea that life is not always constant, but ...read more

    Ambassadors For Christ

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Oct 29, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,122 views

    This message views the biblical image of "ambassador for Christ" in the context of the Roman world. While sojourning on earth, we must represent our real homeland, the kingdom of heaven.

    “George Shultz, when Secretary of State during the Reagan administration, kept a large globe in his office. When newly appointed ambassadors had an interview with him . . . Shultz would test them. He would say, ‘You have to go over the globe and prove to me that you can identify your country.’ ...read more

    Sins Forgiven, Health Restored

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Oct 16, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 733 views

    This message looks at how Jesus healed a paralytic, and discusses the connection between sin and illness, and forgiveness and healing. God desires for your whole spirit, soul, and body to be healed (1 Thessalonians 5:23).

    I would like to begin our message this morning with a true story about a woman’s healing. A pastor named John Wimber says, “A woman in her late forties asked me to pray for her healing. She suffered from chronic stomach disorders and arthritis . . . I asked her if she was feeling hostility, ...read more

    The Demons Will Flee

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Oct 4, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,080 views

    This message looks at two "demon-possessed" men, discusses the translation "demonized," and provides a spiritual application on how to recognize the devil's activity, overcome Satan's attacks, and find deliverance.

    I want to get us started with some observations and an illustration by Neil T. Anderson, the president of Freedom in Christ Ministries. He says, “Psychologists and psychiatrists routinely see patients who are hearing voices: chemical imbalance is the standard diagnosis . . . But how can a chemical ...read more

    Peace, Be Still

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Sep 18, 2024
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,358 views

    A storm arose on the sea and the disciples thought they were going to die. In the storms of life, Jesus speaks into our circumstances. He is working to either calm the storm or quiet our heart. When we trust in Him, we find peace.

    Allow me to begin our sermon with an illustration. “Horatio Spafford was a Chicago lawyer and friend of evangelist Dwight L. Moody. In 1873, to visit Moody’s preaching campaign in England, he planned a trip for his family to Europe, and sent his wife Anna and daughters on ahead. But the ship ...read more

    Come To The Other Side

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Sep 10, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,727 views

    Two disciples were challenged to cross the sea of Galilee. It takes faith to cross over, and we must make the crossing if we ever hope to be in God's will. Crossing over is about moving from where we are to where Jesus is.

    “Many years ago, it was decided to put a suspension bridge across a wide gorge. How could they build a bridge across such a wide space? If fact, how could they even start? They shot an arrow from one side to the other. The arrow carried across the gulf a tiny thread, and thus the connection was ...read more

    Burning Fever Be Gone!

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Aug 29, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 583 views

    The Bible teaches us that sin is an infection leading to a terrible fever; an infection that must be cleansed through the washing of water by the word and by the precious blood of Jesus Christ. He heals both spiritual and physical illnesses.

    “In 1818, Ignaz Phillip Semmelweis was born into a world of dying women. The finest hospitals lost one out of six young mothers to the scourge of ‘childbed fever.’ A doctor’s daily routine began in the dissecting room where he performed autopsies. From there he made his way to the hospital to ...read more

    Faith Like A Centurion

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Aug 14, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,559 views

    This passage shares the account of a soldier; one who had enough faith to take Jesus at His word and receive an answer to His request. The centurion had great love for his servant and great faith that Jesus could heal his servant.

    I want to begin our message this morning with a sermon illustration: “It is said that Napoleon [Bonaparte], while looking at some papers, let slip the bridle of his horse, which reared [back] so that the emperor was in danger. A corporal . . . leaped forward and caught the bridle, bringing the ...read more

    Ministering To The Sick

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Jul 26, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,157 views

    People can become so afraid of catching an illness that they will stay clear of anyone who is sick. Jesus challenged people to realize that caring for the spiritual needs of others far supersedes one’s desire for self-preservation.

    I want to begin our message today with two quotes by Mother Teresa; and here is the first quote: “The biggest disease today is not leprosy or tuberculosis, but rather the feeling of being unwanted.”(1) In her humanitarian efforts in Calcutta, Mother Teresa saw a lot of rejection and hopelessness, ...read more

    Building On The Rock Series

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Mar 18, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,259 views

    Those who heed the message of a false prophet are unwise, building their hope on an unstable foundation. Jesus discusses "doing" vs. "doing his will," as many who proclaim to do works in His name will wind up in hell.

    Our message today picks up where we left off, where Jesus warned us about false prophets who are ravenous wolves in sheep’s clothing (cf. Matthew 7:15-20). When I preached from that passage, I began with the fairy tale of “Little Red Riding Hood” and the wolf as our opening illustration. This ...read more

    Beware Of Ravenous Wolves Series

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Feb 23, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,382 views

    Things are not always as they seem; and Jesus shares what to look for in identifying false prophets. These are false teachers, ravenous wolves, who seek to feed and save themselves, rather than feed and protect the flock.

    Allow me to begin with an illustration: As Little Red Riding Hood is heading to her grandmother’s house; a wolf comes along and finds out where she lives. He travels ahead, enters the house, and eats the grandmother! When Little Red Riding Hood arrives, she notices her grandmother’s unusual ...read more
