I was leaving the nursing home after visiting one of our members and I passed a lady in a wheel chair. "What’s your name?" she said, smiling sweetly. I told her my name and asked, "What’s your name?" Suddenly

I'VE FALLEN, AND NO ONE WILL HELP ME OUT!
I was watching The West Wing one day and heard this story from Leo McGarrey, the Chief of Staff. I have adapted it for use in a sermon with The Good Samaritan.
A man is walking down the street one day when he falls into a hole. He cries out for help

In my younger, more foolish days, there was a game that I liked to play that my wife didn’t like very much. We’d be driving down the highway, when I’d notice that the fuel gage was getting close to empty. My wife’s preference at this point, was for me to stop at the nearest gas station, while I

The mystery as to those who are saved. The preacher said that conversion was like going through a doorway which had written over it "whosoever will may come" (see Rev 22:17), but as he passed through it and looked back on the other side of the doorway he saw the

They tell me the story that long ago there was a small church, in a small town, in a small county, where a small congregation had tried for years to get the biggest “sinner” in town, Sam, to come to church. Sam the sinner would have nothing to do with the church. He wouldn’t even come on Easter or
