    Finding Strength In Small Things SermonCentral

    based on 2 ratings
     | 855 views

    The world often values the big, the many, the rich, and the famous. However, this sermon explores the idea that less can be more, and that there is strength and importance in the small and few when God is involved. It challenges the belief that bigger is always better, and encourages finding value in simplicity and smallness.

    The world often promotes the idea that bigger is better and smaller is not good. The unbelievers believe that more is always better and less is not valuable. They believe that there is strength in numbers and that the few are unimportant. They prioritize the rich and famous over the poor and ...read more

    God's Anointing Youth Sermon

    God often chooses unlikely people, seeing beyond their outward appearance and focusing on their hearts. He does this to display His power through our lives as we walk in the anointing and gifting of the Holy Spirit.

    God tells this prophet, Samuel, to go to Bethlehem and anoint one of Jesse's sons as the new king. Samuel sees the oldest son, Eliab, and thinks, "This guy looks like king material." But God's like, "Nope, I don't look at the outside; I look at the heart." So, none of Jesse's seven sons present ...read more

    The Meaning Of The Cross Youth Sermon

    Contributed by Youth Sermons on Mar 5, 2024
    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,124 views

    The main idea is to understand two theories of atonement - Penal Substitution and Christus Victor - and to explore the significance of Jesus' death on the cross in defeating the powers of evil.

    You know that cross necklace you wear, or the one you see people wearing? It's more than just a cool piece of jewelry. It's a symbol of something huge that happened a long time ago. Jesus died on a cross, and that changed everything. But why did He have to die, and why does it matter so much? Let's ...read more

    When things don't go as expected, we often begin to question and doubt. By reflecting and trusting the facts, and remaining firm in the Promises fulfilled and yet to come, we can find peace in trusting HIM. The invitation has been given, "Come unto Me and find peace."

    2025.04.27. Sermon Notes. THE COMING ONE, REST ON JESUS, MATTHEW 11 William Akehurst, HSWC INTRO: When things don't go as expected we often begin to question our thinking.

    Jesus’ last recorded prayer before the cross wasn’t for miracles, influence, or safety — it was for unity among His people.

    God is faithful. That is, God is true, and constant, and will adhere to his promises. He will not deceive. He will not promise, and then fail to perform; he will not commence anything which he will not perfect and finish.

    Corinth is a fascinating city in Greece that was a major center for International east-west trade. People from all over came to this prosperous place to make their fortunes. The message of a humble Jesus who died on a humiliating cross was not going to be popular.

    1st Corinthians 1 August 25, 2024 • Corinth is a fascinating city in Greece that was a major center for International east-west trade. • When Paul lived there, Corinth was the host of the Isthmian Games, second only to the Olympics in popularity. • Paul most likely lived in a small apartment ...read more

    Setting Our Minds On Divine Things

     | 886 views

    Jesus taught his disciples to set their minds on divine things such as denying themselves and taking up their crosses to follow him. He added to that statements about "losing" our lives and to not be ashamed of the Gospel. What does all this mean?

    THERE ARE PASSAGES IN THE BIBLE THAT CAN CREATE FEAR AND POSSIBLY DISTRESS DUE TO THEIR BLUNT, BUT HIDDEN MEANING. IN LUKE 14:26, WE ARE TOLD THAT “IF ANYONE COMES TO ME AND DOES NOT HATE FATHER AND MOTHER, WIFE AND CHILDREN, BROTHERS AND SISTERS—YES, EVEN THEIR OWN LIFE—SUCH A PERSON CANNOT BE MY ...read more

    Both Saint And A Sinner

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Sep 30, 2024
     | 640 views

    In the beginning of Paul's First Epistle to the Corinthians, Paul refers to these quarrelsome and divisive members of the Church of Corinth as "Saints." Can I be both Just and a Sinner, at the same time?

    Thank you to Tullian Tchividjian, a Lutheran pastor from whom much of the message theme is borrowed. There’s something wonderful our Epistle lesson today that can be overlooked, in that Paul calls the Christians living in Corinth “saints.” In fact, “Saint” is a term he uses to describe all of us ...read more
