    based on 1 rating
     | 5,588 views

    "Christians differ from pagans not in the ills that befall them but in what they do with the ills that befall them." - St. Augustine. Christians should respond to tragedy, sickness, and trials in light of who they are in Jesus Christ.

    Paul’s Harsh Advice On Who To Marry Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 28, 2018
     | 4,221 views

    This is a challenging passage. Paul repeatedly emphasizes the vast difference between Christians and non-Christians that makes marriage a non-starter. Why does Paul think that Christians should not marry non-Christians?

    OVERKILL? Why does Paul make such a big deal about this? - 2 Corinthians 6:14-18. - Paul here argues that Christians should not marry non-Christians. That strikes many people as overkill. Is it really that big a deal? Is it really worth the repetition that Paul makes here? This is the ...read more

     | 8,684 views

    Paul urged the Corinthian church to preserve their unity in Christ at all costs. We learn from him to work quickly through conflict, appreciate our differences, and know what unites us.

    1 Corinthians 1:10-18 Preserving the Union If you ever find a perfect church, join it, and it will no longer be perfect! And if you ever feel bad about the state of your church or the state of the church in America today, just read the Bible book of 1 Corinthians! These folks had lots of problems, ...read more

    The Development Of A Man/Woman Of God

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 22, 2019
     | 5,330 views

    Daniel, a normal believer, was transformed into a person of such insight and faith, that he was promoted to serve 5 kings from three different conquering nations. What steps did he take that caused such a transformation?

    THE DEVELOPMENT OF A MAN/WOMAN OF GOD Dan. 1:3-17 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: FREE HAIRCUTS 1. One day a Barber cut a minister’s hair.

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,916 views

    This is the 23rd sermon in a series from the Gospel of John. In this sermon we look at the claims that Jesus has made concerning Himself, and the different reactions He has gotten concerning those claims.

    Where you fit, depends on where HE fits (John pt. 23) Text: John 7:14 – 52 We’re working our way through John’s Gospel, for some time now… and just to re-cap for you what we looked at last week, we talked about how Jesus had been rejected by the multitudes, and how His own brothers came against ...read more

    Psalms 14 And 53 Series

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Feb 26, 2020
     | 6,244 views

    Psalms 14 and 53 are similar to each other, having only minor differences in the mode of expressing the same thoughts. This sermon studies the two passages in parallel, slightly enlarging the understanding of their combined content.

    For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,629 views

    The tension between our quest for tranquility and the pressures of responsibility and loving others is an inexact science, but we must do our best to seek the balance, which may be different for each one of us.

    The Quest for Tranquility (Mark 6:45-55) 1. We had a great time in Virginia — suburban Washington DC — at Hannah’s wedding. 2. We love our new son-in-law and got to live next door to Luke and Sarah at hotel. 3. Family came from Chicago, and friends came from Kokomo. It was odd ...read more

    The angel announced a message of "great joy". But the world often confuses Joy with Happiness and ends up being disappointed. What brings us joy and what difference does that make in our lives?

     | 3,314 views

    People become victims of GAD as a result of pathological worrying, People worry and people develop worry in two different forms according to research. Worries are stored in our minds as images and in verbal form.

    I do not know how you perceive, but to me, anything Bible teaches is not a giving us suggestions but a command. If we have learned to avoid unbiblical practices, our life would be much happier. The first step to finding an answer to your worry is knowing what is a concern and what is a worry. ...read more

     | 3,046 views

    We Americans like to think of ourselves as independent people but we never can truly be totally independent. In the spiritual world we are slaves in the kingdom of darkness or the kingdom of light but the motivation is entirely different!

    Independence? - There Ain’t No Such Thing Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Matthew 5:6-8 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.

    The things Jesus said 2,000 years ago made people think he had lost his mind. If he were to speak to us today, would we feel differently?

    Scripture Reading: Mark 3:20-21 Then he went home; and the crowd came together again, so that they could not even eat. When his family heard it, they went out to restrain him, for people were saying, “He has gone out of his mind.” Reflection Today’s passage is only two verses long, but is packed ...read more

    The entire Christian church agrees that the church is, or is supposed to be "apostolic" in nature. And yet as you might expect, there are several different explanations of just what it means to be a part of the apostolic church.
