    based on 151 ratings
     | 7,902 views

    Church conflict dishonors the Lord and can do great damage to people's souls

    RYAN: Oh, don't give me that, Andy! Anyone with half a brain knows that I am right. ANDY: Are you saying I am stupid? Listen, Ryan, you better take back what you said or I'll throw you halfway across the room! RYAN: Yeah? You and what army? ANDY: Don't get me mad, Ryan. These hands are ...read more

    Why Can't They Understand?

    Why can't some people "get it" when it comes to the Christian gospel?

    Sometimes the words we speak just don't connect with the person to whom we are speaking. During the first week of basic training, an army drill sergeant was explaining what was in store for his squad during the next two months. One young private raised his hand and asked, "Sergeant, when do we ...read more

    A Blueprint For Building

    Contributed by Dan Erickson on Nov 25, 2000
    based on 204 ratings
     | 11,315 views

    with Christ as our foundation, we as a church and as individuals need to make sure we build with the right materials; make sure we stay God-centered; we need to rely on the Lord's strength and wisdom and avoid the temptation to take shortcuts

    This church building was constructed about nine years ago. These are the blueprints for our church. Whoever put them together did a fine job, and they provided direction for the folks who built this structure which we often call First Baptist Church. It is good to keep in mind, though, that ...read more

    All of us need to be concerned about our spiritual health at least as much as we are about our physical well-being

    I don't know about you, but if I had a doctor like Dr. Kraft in this morning's skit, I would find a new physician too. Friends, very few people want to go to a doctor who lies to them. We want to know the truth, even if it is unpleasant, so we can maybe take some action to keep the bad news ...read more

    Hunting For Humility?

    Contributed by Dan Erickson on Nov 25, 2000
    based on 312 ratings
     | 11,509 views

    Christianity would benefit greatly if there were more humble individuals in both pulpits and pews

    When asked what were the three most important Christian virtues, Augustine replied, "Humility, humility, and humility." Yet, this great virtue is in rather short supply in our culture. Even very good people seem to have a hard time being really humble. One day Linus tells Charlie Brown, "When I ...read more

    Dare To Discipline

    Contributed by Dan Erickson on Nov 25, 2000
    based on 166 ratings
     | 7,355 views

    Church discipline is a very unpleasant thing - But because we love God, because we love His church, because we love the people who are a part of it, it is something we need to be willing to do

    Fifteen years ago, next week, I was called to become the pastor of Lakeside Baptist Church, Wentworth, Wisconsin. As I began my first full-time ministry position, my rookie season, I found myself facing a couple of situations which were probably as difficult as any that I have dealt with the last ...read more

    Trying to avoid contact with those who don't share our faith in Christ is a mistake that Christians have often made throughout the centuries

    (Jim and Sue are sitting in the living room after dinner. Jim is reading the paper; Sue is knitting -- or something.) JIM: (Starts to put down the paper.) Well, Sue, I'd better go to bed. I want to get to the office early tomorrow morning. SUE: Oh, Jim, I'm so glad you like your new job. Isn't it ...read more

    A look at what Paul says about Christians and lawsuits

    The United States is clearly the world's leader in lawyers and litigation. There are almost one million lawyers in our country, over twice as many as there were twenty years ago. The State of Delaware, which has a population of 750,000, has more attorneys than the whole nation of Japan, which has a ...read more

    Making sure we are ready to enter heaven is probably as important as anything in life

    A man was stranded in the desert. As he crawled across the burning sand, dying of thirst, he encountered a necktie salesman. "Can I interest you in a nice new tie?" the salesman asked. "Are you crazy?" the man gasped. "I'm dying of thirst and you want to sell me a necktie?" The salesman shrugged ...read more

    Is It Safe Sex?

    based on 234 ratings
     | 4,504 views

    Sexual fulfillment is a very shallow goal to have in life. Instead, we need to seek spiritual fulfillment in Jesus Christ

    Dear Mom, Yes, some of the things you have heard about this city are probably true. In fact, they say the main reason people come to this place is because of sex. Sexual immorality is more prevalent than you could ever imagine. By God’s grace, I have remained chaste, but it seems I am being ...read more

    What does God say about marriage?

    The pastor was visiting the fourth-grade Sunday School class to talk about marriage as part of the lesson. He asked the class, "What does God say about marriage?" Immediately one boy replied, "Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do." Well, friends, that is not exactly a proper ...read more

    Dealing With Divorce

    based on 246 ratings
     | 5,935 views

    Biblical teaching on divorce: though divorce is not a good thing, it is sometimes permitted.

    Arnold Schwarzenegger said, "I read where one wife plans to divorce her husband as soon as she can find a way to do so without making him happy." Friends, Arnold may have read that, but in real life, divorce is no joke. It seldom brings happiness to anyone. Most of us are aware of the devastating ...read more

    No Tripping Allowed

    Contributed by Dan Erickson on Nov 25, 2000

     | 5,815 views

    About spiritually tripping another person, or as Paul says, being a stumbling block to another Christian.

    Though one of the objectives of football is to knock the other guy down, tripping is not allowed. If the Packers' Ross Verba is blocking the Vikings' John Randle, trying to prevent him from sacking Brett Favre, he is not allowed to stick out his leg and trip him. If he does, and the referee sees ...read more

    Practicing What We Preach

    Contributed by Dan Erickson on Nov 25, 2000
    based on 140 ratings
     | 8,708 views

    The charge of hypocrisy, of not being sincere and genuine, of not practicing what we preach, is a charge that continues to plague the church

    Once there was a pair of identical twin brothers; one was a pastor, and the other was a physician. It was almost impossible to tell the two men apart. A woman approached one of them on the street and asked, "Are you the one who preaches?" "No," came the answer, "I'm the one who practices." ...read more
