    based on 10 ratings
     | 19,518 views

    A different message on JOY (the theme of the third week of Advent) that focuses on joy that comes from serving God.

    It’s the 3rd week of Advent – have you been keeping up at home? I hope so. Today’s topic is JOY. Just as in the past weeks with peace and hope, JOY is a huge subject that we will barely scratch the surface of today. But I want to use a great story from John 4 to show you one way that Jesus said you ...read more

    This is the second message of Advent, but I crafted it in conjunction with a missionary presentation we had at our church using Isaiah 52:7 - this sermon would be helpful in this setting.

    When we began the service this morning, we read from Isaiah 52 – on the screen behind me is verse 7 (let’s read it together): How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of the messenger who brings good news, the good news of peace and salvation, the news that the God of Israel reigns!

    Part one of a four part series on the four themes of Advent - hope, peace, joy, and love. Describes "hope" and how it is powerful and beneficial.

    I enjoy celebrating Advent first, and then celebrating Christmas. You see, our world has commercialized Christmas so much so that what used to be a fairly sacred time of year is now only talked about in terms of company profits, consumer spending, Hollywood blockbuster movies, TV events, finding ...read more

    The first of two messages based on Ephesians 2:10. The work that God does in our lives is based on His grace that makes us into masterpieces.

    Note: In preparation for this message, I set the atmosphere as such: 1) We hung artwork (Van Gogh, Kandinksy, Salvador Dali) around the auditorium, on easels. 2) We played classical music - ambience. 3) An artist in our church made a painting of three crosses (in remembrance of Good ...read more

    Part 2 of a 4 part mini-series on blessings we have in Christ from Ephesians 1, focusing on election. I purposefully avoid the controversy and state the significance of this blessing for our lives.

    I want to begin my message with a hate speech – about the Yankees. (elaborate on how they are the Sox nemesis; you admire them because they get the best players; but the responsibility after they have an all-star at every position is for them to play. They have everything they need to win, but ...read more
