    He Lives!

    Contributed by Shelly Griffin on Apr 19, 2001
    based on 114 ratings

    What if your loved one came back from the dead?

    When my mother died in 1993, I was unprepared for the intense grief that hit me like a freight train. My father had died ten years before, but that was different. He didn’t like me, and there was no love lost between us, so the whole process was not that traumatic. When my mother died, though, I ...read more

    Jonathan Edwards’ sermon is still relevant today.

    A few days ago someone asked me why preachers never talked anymore about what was going to happen to you if you didn’t do what God said. I answered that I thought it was because we’d lost the whole concept of sin and judgment over the past 30 or 40 years because everybody’s been preaching that ...read more

    Don’t believe anything just because somebody else told you to.

    Imagine being out in the woods, hiking, camping, working. When all of a sudden you feel a sharp pain in your leg. You look down and see two small holes in your skin and this long, legless creature slithering away through the grass. Well, being a fairly intelligent person, you’d probably come ...read more

    Jesus was tempted just like we are.

    Back in 1988, director Martin Scorsese made a film that caused a furor in this country from coast to coast. It was a film about Jesus, and people were demonstrating against it and picketing and threatening to blow up theaters if they showed it. The name of the film was The Last Temptation of ...read more

    When we turn to the Lord, the veil will be lifted.

    2 Corinthians 3:13 - 18 Women in Afghanistan have to wear a veil whenever they leave their homes. This veil is called a burqa, and it’s a fairly heavy garment that goes from the top of their heads all the way to the ground. They have a patch of net or some gauzy material that covers their eyes ...read more

    Our cross is empty.

    1 Corinthians 15:12-20 I have here some visual aids. I don’t usually do this, but today I’m going to talk about symbols, and I wanted you to see and be able to visualize the symbols I’m referring to. This is a Star of David, one of the symbols of Judaism. It’s made of two interlocking triangles ...read more

    Isaiah’s answer to God’s call.

    Isaiah 6:1-8 Years ago there was a program on television called Welcome Back, Kotter. It was about a guy who taught at a New York high school. Well, he didn’t just teach; he was responsible for a group of kids called The Sweathogs. They were called this because they were the kids who were ...read more

    We all stand before the Ancient of Days sooner or later.

    A year or so ago my son introduced me to a type of music called ska. I had no idea what it was, but after I heard it, I liked it. It sounds a little like big band music, a little like Latino music, lots of horns mixed in with guitars and drums. Some of it is fast, and some of it is slow. It’s ...read more

    This sermon tells how to make sure our names are in the Book of Life.

    Do y’all remember way back in elementary school, whenever the teacher had to leave the room for some reason?
