    The gospel message is hidden from those who are spiritually blind.

    Text: “But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them” (2 Corinthians 4:3-4).

    Like the clay jars that Gideon and his soldiers broke, there a tremendous value in being broken. We throw things away when they’re broken, but God cherishes and uses broken people. So, broken down, cracked pots, rejoice because God uses cracked pots so th

    Aunque la vida, las personas y aun la iglesia parezcan darnos la espalda, todavía tenemos la oportunidad de cumplir con el propósito de nuestra vida.

    La vida en un mundo caído puede ser realmente devastadora. Hay momentos en donde todo parece andar bien cuando de repente la tragedia, el dolor y el sufrimiento tocan la puerta para sacudir el piso de nuestra vida. En ese momento la realidad cobra un sentido diferente y decimos: no puede ser ...read more

    Hope in suffering comes when we are able to focus, not on the troubles around us, but on God¡¦s hidden treasure within and before us.

    I¡¦ve noticed in counseling with people over the years that people lose their bearings when they get bad news. Perhaps you saw the story this week about a man in Hollywood, California. Three Marines came to his home to break the news to him that his son had died in the service of his country. ...read more

    In this sermon, we discover what kept the apostle Paul ticking even though he took a licking. Four "f"s kept him going - foundation, force, faith, and focus.

    Introduction: A. I like the story told of the boxer who went to his corner after getting knocked down in the first round. 1. His trainer patted him on the back and said, “Great round.

    For Memorial Day/Christian Legacy Sunday: We must not protect the vessel in which the Gospel is carried more than the Gospel itself. The Gospel is power; the vessel must be impervious to popularity, a good transporter. Legacy giving encouraged.

    I am not much of a gardener. The Scripture says that there is a time to plant and a time to pluck up what is planted, but I must tell you that I don’t know the difference. I pluck up only what I am told to pluck up, because I don’t know a weed from a willow. However, the mistress of our little ...read more

    We talk a lot about natural human behavior and how that often runs counter to the real life given to us in Jesus Christ. Today I want to talk about your image.
