    Highs & Lows in Ministry. (PowerPoint slides to accompany this talk are available on request - email: gcurley@gcurley.info)

    BACKGROUND: • When you read the book of Acts, don’t think villages, but cities. • The church in the Book of Acts was almost entirely urban. Quote Historian Wayne A. Meeks writes that; “Within a decade of the crucifixion of Jesus, the village culture of Palestine had ...read more

  • Creativity--The Opposite Of Liturgy Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 21, 2011
     | 3,172 views

    Our profession of faith in Christ is guided not only by Scripture, but by the Fathers of the Church, the historic creeds, and our liturgical tradition.

    Monday of the 5th Week of Easter Spirit of the Liturgy Mistaken identity. It’s an embarrassment, and occasionally a lethal inconvenience. Consider poor Jude here. No wonder he appears to have preferred the name “Thaddeus,” and became patron saint of hopeless causes. Even the ...read more

  • Builders Or Wreckers? Series

    Contributed by Matthew Street on Oct 13, 2006

     | 6,301 views

    Are we like Paul and Barnabas builders in God’s Kingdom or are we more concerned about doing things in the way they have always been done with the result that we like the Jews miss the new things that God is doing and become wreckers rather than builders

    Building something up is so much harder than tearing it down. We only need to think about the last time we had some redevelopment work done on our house to know that this is true. It takes no time to knock out those old windows or that old kitchen but it takes much longer to replace them. Gerald ...read more

  • Attributes To Admire Series

     | 6,980 views

    This sermon identifies four attributes worth admiration in Paul and Barnabas. These same attributes ought to be present in us as fathers.

    Admiration is an interesting thing. The dictionary defines it as “a feeling of pleasure, wonder and approval”. I think that most men want their children to admire them in one sense or another. I mean I want my children to take pleasure in me as their father, I want them to have a sense of wonder ...read more

  • I'm Only Human

    Contributed by Steve Shepherd on Dec 15, 2007

     | 34,442 views

    From this text, let’s think about what we "humans" can do in life and the proper attitude we should have. 1- We must do good 2- We must be humble 3- We must expect some opposition

    INTRO.- ILL.- There was a preacher who was an avid golfer. Every chance he got, he could be found on the golf course swinging away. It was his obsession. One Sunday was a picture-perfect day for golf. The sun was out, no clouds in the sky, and the temperature was just right. The preacher was ...read more

  • Overcoming Barriers To The Good News Series

     | 9,319 views

    With God’s help, we can learn to naturally and effectively share His love with others.

    Overcoming Barriers to the Good News Acts 14:1-18 Intro: Many Christians believe that they are supposed to share the good news about Jesus with other people who do not know God yet. I would guess that most if not all of the Christian here today have at least some desire to do that. However, most ...read more

     | 6,552 views

    The people of Lystra are held captive by not only false belief, but also by the spirit of darkness that they serve.

    Common Lies that plague our lives: The check is in the mail. (Well, internet banking has made that one less popular) I’ll start my diet tomorrow. (No comment) We service what we sell. (I won’t mention any of the places you are thinking about right now) Give me your number and the doctor will ...read more

    SOMEONE HAS SAID THAT THERE IS NO RETIREMENT FROM SERVICE FOR CHRIST, AND THAT IS TRUE. THERE ALWAYS SOMETHING PRODUCTIVE A FOLLOWER OF CHRIST CAN DO, REGARDLESS OF CIRCUMSTANCES, SITUATIONS, OR SURROUNDINGS. YET, THERE ARE SOME “MISCONCEPTIONS” OUT THER

    Paul and Barnabus didn’t know it, but they had jumped from the frying pan to the fire! They came to Lystra and began preaching the gospel. At first people wanted to sacrifice to them as gods, but then turned on them, stoned Paul, and left him for dead.

    Paul and Barnabus didn’t know it, but they had jumped from the frying pan to the fire! They came to Lystra and began preaching the gospel. Faith to Be Healed They went to the market place everyday and preached. They were street preachers! There was a man there who was crippled. Notice the ...read more

    Difference makers stay the course even when all Hell is unleashed against them. Will we let the stones stop us or will we keep singing.

    Difference makers stay the course. Chippie the parakeet 1. Sucked up by a vacuum 2. Washed up under the bathroom faucet 3. Blow dried with a hair dryer 4. No wonder he does not sing anymore.
