Full Or Empty (Palm Sunday)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 22, 2021

There is a difference between being full and being empty. There is also a difference between being empty and emptying one's self.

FULL OR EMPTY Text: Philippians 2:5 - 11 The late Bishop Fulton J. Sheen was greeted by a burst of applause when he made his appearance as a speaker at a meeting in Minneapolis. He responded by saying: “Applause before a speaker begins is an act of faith. Applause during the speech is ...read more

Easter Sunday The Resurrection Of The Lord

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Apr 1, 2021

I mentioned that there was not an accompanying storybook to the Easter Playset. Maybe because the very language of Easter—Pascal-- tells us this that we have to personally experience it. Pasch means "Passing through," in Exodus Chapter 12,...

There are some Christian educational toys for Ages 4-9, like Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand; Daniel and the Lion's Den; Jesus Walks on Water; Moses and the Ten Plagues. Each Playset features full-color, child-safe, action figures that are designed to be paired with its own book which neatly ...read more

Resurrection Sunday: He Is Risen!

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 26, 2021

As I journeyed to see family this last week I drove through the great woods of Wisconsin. And I looked at the trees along the road, and they looked like bundled up cord wood ready for the fire.

As I journeyed to see family this last week I drove through the great woods of Wisconsin. And I looked at the trees along the road, and they looked like bundled up cord wood ready for the fire. Always right around this time of year, the trees look so dead. All their leaves have fallen off, and it ...read more

Fourth Sunday Of Lent, Year A

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Feb 24, 2020

You have a story to tell

Spiritual blindness often has ideological roots and rational presuppositions. The Pharisees were so sure of everything—that God did not heal someone on Sundays; that Moses was God’s only spokesman, that anyone born blind had to be a sinner. To illustrate: Two psychiatrists were talking and one ...read more

Born Of The Spirit (Trinity Sunday) Series

Contributed by Amiri Hooker on May 29, 2021

This is the first Sunday after the Pentecost. Trinity Sunday is the beginning of the Year. So this sermon is a journey. It is also the church’s birth story and as some have said the mini Bible sermon.

Main text: Trinity Sunday is the first Sunday after Pentecost to honor the Holy Trinity—the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Although the word “trinity” does not appear in Scripture, it is taught in Matthew 28:18-20 and 2 Corinthians 13:14 (and many other biblical passages). The concept of the trinity ...read more

Being Renewed (Graduation Sunday) Series

Contributed by Amiri Hooker on Jun 5, 2021

We think home is a place of renewal. We think we can go home and rest. And we can, but only if our focus is right. Home won’t renew us, won’t build us up, unless the focus of our home is on the One who raises us into a new kingdom, a new reality.

Main: If you’re looking for snapshots of well-adjusted and happy parent-child relationships from the ancient world, the Bible probably shouldn’t be on your short list of sources. Consider even Jesus’ family, for example. The New Testament preserves evidence suggesting that Jesus’ relationship with ...read more

The Fourth Sunday In Advent: Love Series

Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Dec 23, 2022

We sometimes hear a lot about love during Advent and the Christmas season. May we never forget the incredible love God has for us. John 3 isn't usually a Christmas text but what Jesus said there is good for Christmas, too.

(Based on and edited from a message preached at First Baptist Church, Chamois, MO on 12-18-22. This is not an exact transcription.) Introduction: There is no greater expression of love, anywhere, when we think about how Jesus left Heaven to come to this earth, to be born like us, live with us, die ...read more

The Surprising Kingdom - Palm Sunday Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Mar 4, 2024

The Kingdom of God is full of surprises, and we should be open to receiving it in unexpected ways. This is evident in the story of Palm Sunday, where Jesus enters Jerusalem in a way that no one expected.

Hey guys, today is Palm Sunday, the kick-off of Holy Week, when Jesus cruised into Jerusalem on a donkey. This was a total curveball because people were expecting a different kind of king. God's Kingdom is full of surprises, and we gotta be ready for them. God's Kingdom is full of surprises, and we ...read more
