    Sex And The Young Christian

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 14, 2019

    Sex is a bridge between husband and wife, and between generations. That means they must not be abused in the pursuit of the secondary meaning of giving pleasure.

    Friday of 10th Week in Course Virtue: Chastity There’s an anecdote that is at least a half-century old, because I first heard it in high school (at this point you should state a disclaimer that this homily is not written for pre-teens). An organization announced a lecture by some out-of-town ...read more

    Did you know that the word stress comes from a Latin word that means to be drawn tight? Is anybody here uptight about anything? How many times do you hear someone ask, “how are you doing” and they answer, “I’m all stressed out.” You hear that all of th

    Christians today are missing the undeterred motivation to faithfully live out their Christian life. Learn how being the living dead will help us get motivated.

    Did you know that you are the living dead? This is not a sermon on being a zombie, although it might sound like it. The disclaimer here is that there is no such thing as zombies. It seems the world is obsessed with zombies. According to financial experts zombies are pumping more than 5 Billion ...read more

    What is the key to 2 Corinthians 4:15. You have to go back to verse six and an old testament story to get the full picture and impact to see the power of this promise.

    The Thing About "This": 2 Corinthians 4:15 (6-15) I want us to take a look at our theme verse and see if we can find the key word to unlocking the meaning and power in it tonight.

    An Eternal Weight Of Glory Series

     | 9,025 views

    We should be grateful for God’s earthly, physical blessings and protection, but we should be even more grateful for the eternal blessings he gives us.

    An Eternal Weight of Glory (2 Corinthians 4:7-18 with Psalm 116) My view is that 2 Corinthians 4:7-18 is based on Psalm 116 (the 2 Cor. passage is a midrash). See if you agree. The “starting text,” Psalm 116:3-19 3 The snares of death encompassed me; the pangs of Sheol laid hold ...read more

God does not take away our struggles, though He does ensure they don’t overwhelm us. - 2 Corinthians 4:8-9. - In verses 8-9, Paul shares four statements that we’d rather not hear.

    A look at having a "spirit of faith" and three of the things that brings into our lives.

    OUR ACTION: We speak (and live) with a spirit of faith. - 2 Corinthians 4:13. - Paul quotes Psalm 116. In that Psalm the writer cried out for mercy and God came through for him.

    Encouragement on how to not lose heart. How does God use struggles to move us forward spiritually?

    WHY DO WE GET DISCOURAGED? Obstacles weigh us down. - 2 Corinthians 4:16a. - In one sense, it’s good news that the first part of v. 16 is in there. It’s a reminder to us that God knows that we get discouraged and need a little hope. These verses are in here to give us that hope. Hopefully ...read more

    Down But Not Out!

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 3, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 17,541 views

    When it comes to suffering, Paul calls us to forsake pity parties and glorify God. We can remember that Jesus shines through us, that our weaknesses glorify God, that we may be down but never out, and that our sufferings may bring eternal life to others.

    2 Corinthians 4:5-12 Down but Not Out! A Christian need never suffer. At least that’s what some preachers might tell you. However, that is not the message of scripture. Jesus said, “If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also” (John 15:20). We should expect no better treatment than that ...read more
