    A sermon about the wisdom and power of God.

    1 Corinthians 1:18-31 “I Want to Be Somebody” I just want to “be somebody” cries the burned out, workaholic father who comes home so tired and frustrated each night he has little energy for his wife and kids. I just want to “be somebody” bemoans the teenager ...read more

    Who Does God Use?

    Contributed by Mark Roper on Dec 7, 2007

    The secret of reaching men is to know the secret of reaching God. The most powerful ongoing Christian witness has always been the speaking of God’s Word by one who is living in God’s Word.

    Who does God use? Whom does God use? Those who are willing to be used by Him. All believers are candidates for Kingdom service. Your ability is not the issue, but your availability. Why use a shoe? A recent U. S. census revealed that a majority of Americans used a shoe to drive a nail into a ...read more

    What seems to be foolish to us, God counts as wisdom.

    1 Corinthians 1:21-29 (KJV) “For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling ...read more

    Broken, Worn Out, Old Clay Pots

    Contributed by Paul Dietz on Jun 19, 2008
    based on 5 ratings
     | 15,107 views

    I used this sermon as one of several in a series on Clay Pots (Earthen Vessels). This was the one I used on Father’s Day during that series.

    I recently came across a Chinese parable that eludes to our thoughts for today’s text. It’s a tale about a water-bearer and his two pots of clay. An elderly peasant had two large clay pots. One of the pots had a crack down its side to a point about half way. The other pot, perfect! Each had been ...read more

    Lessons of life from the lives of two sisters in terms of making the right choice commendable by the Lord.

    Choosing the Best…? Life is full of choices, and we have to make decisions concerning the choices. We cannot afford to make a mistake when we choose. I can recall an incident that took place in my life when I first joined college after school. In order to graduate from the college there were few ...read more

    When you look at major events many times you can see a time and place a difference was made. We look at different things people did in the word of God that made a difference.

    The Difference Was Made When… When you look at major events many times you can see a time and place a difference was made. You see it, in the Word of God, you see it in history, and you see it in the stories of your own life. In prayer this week the phrase “the difference was made when…”echoed ...read more

    Using the "Justin" story to illustrate simple Christianity. Christians forget where they came from. Evidence? I give three (there are more).

    I. Introduction Last week I read a story to you in an attempt to clearly illustrate our position before God. In the next few weeks I will continue to use that story to illustrate in more detail how our relationship with God should work. This process is important because the gospel can become ...read more

    The Weakness Of God

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on May 27, 2009
    based on 19 ratings
     | 8,545 views

    The current church seems so obsessed with the power of God. What kind of power is it? Is it after all a power that comes from weakness?

    It has been my habit for many years to read through the Bible each year. As I continue this practice I am increasingly amazed at how absurd God’s plan for the world and his kingdom is — that is, in human terms. God seems to delight in abuse and rejection, for he receives plenty of it. He seems, ...read more

    A look at the undercurrents in the passage, to see what was really going on

    Introduction As we look through the gospel reading today, I am going to pick on a number of words and phrases to try to give a better picture of what was going on. Marks’ Gospel is a fast moving text. It could be called "What Jesus Did Next". It is easy to get caught up in the story and miss ...read more

    To The Foolish: Beautiful Savior Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,663 views

    December 1989: We choose not to participate in mission and ministry because we do not want to look foolish. Jesus transforms looking foolish into a redemptive model.

    Most of us, especially in our younger years, spend an awful lot of effort in trying not to look foolish. Most of us, particularly when we are young and growing and think our bodies are all out of proportion anyway, will go to great lengths to hide our deficiencies and keep from looking foolish. ...read more
