    My Hearts Longs For Something Greater: Eternity In The Human Heart & The Emptiness Of Gorged Sensuality

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 2, 2021
     | 1,982 views

    All of life is filled with parables and metaphors that point to the meta-narrative of existence. The four seasons are laced with it. Media, movies, books, and stories are filled with expressions of the longings of our hearts. We long for a place we've never been.

    Raising The Standard

    We found out that things like lying, living together, stealing, murder, abortion, hatred, and all sorts of other things that the Bible condemns are all right for most people so long as they think it to be so. The Bible has taken a back seat to some ot

    ur God is a God of abundance. Here Jesus is using a metaphor of Himself being a shepherd over sheep. Moreover, the sheep that listen, follow and stay in His presence will always have pasture. (Abundance) Here Jesus is speaking about a good shepherd in con

    Fitting In

    Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Feb 13, 2011
     | 7,358 views

    comedian Lenny Bruce gives our Christian psychology a metaphorical cattle prod shock when he said, “Every day people are straying away from the church and going back to God.’” I suspect it has a lot to do with fitting in.

    “Fitting In” John 17:11-19 I read the prologue to a story called Girl in the Middle. The girl is Kim Satinsky who is in eighth grade. She says, “You would think that being in a clique is fun but take my word for it: It’s not. They make me wear expensive things when I’m not really rich and tell me ...read more

    The Blessings Of Hardships

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Aug 26, 2019
     | 6,025 views

    Jesus said he came to, "send fire on the earth." This sermon takes a unique approach on this idea and uses the fire metaphor as a purging of the things inside us that hinder us from becoming who we can be through God.

    The Blessing of Hardships Since this Gospel reading is intense, I thought I’d begin by admitting something kind of funny about it. When I read it this week, I pictured Jesus at a Charlie Daniels concert singing, “Fire on the mountain run boys run.” It also made me wonder, “… how am I supposed ...read more

    The Anchor Of The Soul

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Aug 21, 2025
     | 423 views

    Using the metaphor of a ship caught in a violent tempest, this sermon introduces the Christian hope found in Hebrews 6 as a "sure and stedfast" heavenly anchor for the soul, providing an unshakeable foundation during life's storms of anxiety, grief, and uncertainty.

    Sermon: The Anchor of the Soul Text: Hebrews 6:17-20 I want you to imagine for a moment a small vessel upon the great and mighty sea. The sun is bright, the water is like glass, and the journey is pleasant. But as any mariner will tell you, the sea is a fickle master. Without warning, the sky can ...read more

    Jesus Loves The Little Children Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 21, 2023
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,964 views

    The difference between the world and God is very harsh when it come to children. God considers them precious, while the world often considers them expendable. What is God's attitude toward abortion and what can we do for those who struggle with that decision?

    The passage I read this morning is intriguing. The story is recorded here in Luke as well as in the Gospels of Matthew and Mark. And what I find interesting is that there’s this contrast between the views of the disciples… and Jesus. There’s this group of parents who are bringing “infants” to ...read more

    How do you boil a society? How do you boil a whole nation? Paul knew the recipe or formula two thousand years ago and he spelled it out very clearly in his letter to the Christian community in Rome.

     | 2,168 views

    The call of Jeremiah has challenges for us and we look at them. Abortion and the unborn are examined from God's perspective. How many sit down and laboriously draft and redraft some message straining to “polish” some sermon. Just speak what God has given!

    The "i Am”s Of Jesus

     | 10,926 views

    When Jesus said "I AM," it usually was a metaphor describing his character or nature. 12 times Jesus used this phrase. Here we look at the 7 "I AMs" of Jesus which capture His most meaningful characteristics.

    "the Strength Of The Ox."

    Contributed by Dr. Jerry Hulse on May 15, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,800 views

    Beloved, the ox is a metaphor for a pastor's need for freedom to lead and expand the Church's impact. Working together in unity and harmony as one body, we can make a substantial difference in our community by spreading love, hope, and kindness to those in need.

    SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES (Proverbs 14:4) “Where no oxen are, the crib is clean: but much increase is by the strength of the ox.” (Proverbs 15:17) “Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith.” (1 ...read more
