    Waste Or Worship?

    Contributed by William Mouser on Mar 20, 2005
    based on 15 ratings
     | 3,740 views

    Mary’s annointing Jesus with expensive ointment was worship to Jesus and an outrageous waste to Judas. What does this tell us about the worship we offer, or how we evaluate others’ worship?

    Sixth Sunday in Lent: Palm Sunday Readings: Isa. 52:13-53:12,;Psalm 24; Phi. 2:5-11; Matt. 26:1-16 Waste, or Worship? About seven years ago, my daughter Alexa went on a summer missionary trip. A local church here in town had organized a week-long project in which teenagers from this community ...read more

     | 3,937 views

    In his last parable, Jesus gives unbelievers a warning of judgment to come, and gives believers a model of enduring suffering on the way to greater glory

    Fifth Sunday in Lent Deuteronomy 18:15-22, 1 Peter 4:12-19, Luke 20:9-18 Rejoice in the Sufferings of Christ Jesus’ encounters with the Pharisees were always occasions for high drama. I can’t think of one of them, with the single exception of Jesus’ conversation with Nicodemus, where Jesus and ...read more

    How Do You Recognize Faith?

    Contributed by William Mouser on Mar 11, 2005
    based on 6 ratings
     | 3,164 views

    The "Faith Hall of Fame" shows us how we recognize faith -- not by the success or failure of those who have it, nor by their joy or sadness, but by the way they clothed their faith in works.

    18th Sunday in Trinity Hebrews 11:1-39 "How do you recognize faith?" Many years ago, a pornography case came before the United States Supreme Court. Justice Potter Stewart said this: “I shall not today attempt further to define [obscenity]; and perhaps I could never succeed in intelligibly ...read more

    Servant Leaders Unto Death

    based on 5 ratings
     | 3,528 views

    James’ and John’s request to sit on either side of Christ in His kingdom leads Jesus to expound the ultimate cost of being His disciple.

    Seventeen Trinity Mark 10:35-45 Servant Leaders unto Death Many years ago, when I was in seminary, I learned a valuable lesson about Bible study. I often recount this story, because it is one of the more valuable things I brought with me from those seminary years. Dr. S. Lewis Johnson told us ...read more

    A Mystery That Blesses

    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,966 views

    Israel’s blindness is not total, nor permanent. Moreover, it is the avenue by which God’s salvation comes to the Gentiles.

    Sixteenth Sunday after Trinity Romans 11:25-36 Mystery that Blesses For some time now, as I have been reading about trends in spiritual fashions, as it were, I’ve noted that one of the currently fashionable things is “mystery.” As near as I’ve ever been able to tell, “mystery” in these ...read more

    Eating The Bread Of Heaven

    Contributed by William Mouser on Mar 8, 2005
    based on 27 ratings
     | 4,078 views

    The Communion, the Eucharist, the Lord’s Table -- whatever we name it -- is, by the Lord’s teaching in John 6, the seat and center of our existential experience of intimacy with Christ.

    Fourth Sunday in Lent Exodus 16:9-15, 1 Corinthians 10:14-22, John 6:10-58 “Eating the Bread of Heaven” Jesus’ feeding the 5,000 is understandably one of the most preached passages from John’s gospel. I am sure you have heard a great many sermons on it. I know I have. I’ve even preached a few ...read more

    Is Greed A Poor Man's Vice?

    Contributed by William Mouser on Mar 3, 2005
    based on 9 ratings
     | 2,523 views

    Greed is every bit as much -- maybe more -- a poor man’s vice as it is a rich man’s folly.

    Fifthteenth Sunday in Trinity: Scripture: Luke 12:13-21, Ecclesiasticus 5:1-10 "Is Greed a Poor Man’s Vice?" The lessons appointed for today have three things in common. First of all, both contain teaching from men who were named Jesus. Jesus ben Sirach composed the passage from the apocryphal ...read more

    Near the anniversary of 9/11, this sermon from Philippians 4 explains how and why Paul says we are to rejoice in the Lord always.

    Fourteenth Sunday in Trinity Philippians 4:4-13 “Don’t Worry? Be Happy?” This past week, our nation passed through the anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center in New York.

    based on 9 ratings
     | 3,240 views

    Two thousand years after Timothy and 3,500 years after Joshua, the Lord’s charge for his people has not changed.

    Septuagesima Sunday Joshua 1:1-9, 2 Tim. 2:1-13 “A Charge that Does Not Change” The lessons for today provide us a remarkable opportunity to bserve two very similar situations which happen to be separated from one another by a huge gulf of time, at least as far as we humans experience time. ...read more

    Fourth Sunday in Advent Luke 3:1-17 “Elementary Fruits of Repentance” By this time during Advent – barely a week away from Christmas, I think everyone will understand something about preparing for the holidays.

     | 5,668 views

    On the Mount of Transfiguration, Christ gives us a foreview of the Kingdom to come, and our glorification within it.

    Second Sunday in Epiphany, Exodus 34:29-35; Mark 9: 1-7 “The Rest of the Story” Paul Harvey is famous with his features entitled “The Rest of the Story.” The premise of the feature is that some stories are compelling, interesting, fascinating, and that they reach a point where it would seem ...read more

    God's 20/20 Foresight

    Contributed by William Mouser on Feb 28, 2005
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,590 views

    Using the Bible’s foreviews of the careers of John the Baptist and the Prophet Jeremiah, this sermon encourages believers to persevere in the expectation that God has just as clearly foreseen their conformity to the image of Christ.

    Third Sunday in Advent Jeremiah 1:4-19, Luke 1:26-45 “God’s 20/20 Foresight” We have all heard the proverb that says, “Hindsight is always 20-20.” I don’t know of another proverb that says anything similarly pithy and witty about foresight. An obvious reason, I suppose, is that foresight ...read more

    THIRD SUNDAY IN ADVENT Luke 3:1-17 “Hedging Our Spiritual Bets” In last Friday’s Wall Street Journal, there was a column by a fellow named Vincent Carrol. He is an editor for the Rocky Mountain News. Let me read you the first three paragraphs of his column. “On Christmas Eve, in line with my ...read more

     | 3,188 views

    This sermon has a strong focus on "little-c catholic Christians," focusing their attention on the words of a Canaanitish woman which found their way into Western Christianity’s eucharistic liturgy.

    Second Sunday in Lent Matthew 15:21-28 If one were to pick episodes out of the Gospels in order to introduce Jesus to someone who does not know him, I’ll bet that the gospel lesson appointed for today is exactly the one they would never pick. There is, of course, much in the Bible that would ...read more

     | 8,678 views

    The person and mission of Jesus the Messiah was foreshadowed centuries before in the person and mission of Joseph.

    13th Sunday in Trinity Genesis 43:1-5, 11-16, 26-34, Hebrews 13:1-21 "Joseph Foreshadows Jesus" The parallels between Jesus and Joseph have been cataloged many, many times by innumerable Bible teachers over the centuries. Jesus, like Joseph, grew up in a home where "his brothers did not believe ...read more
