    Following God's Lead Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jun 5, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,278 views

    This sermon is based on Chapter 9 of Charles Swindoll's book, Paul: A Man of Grace and Grit, by Charles Swindoll. We discuss the fact that like Saul and Barnabas, we need to be ready to obey when God calls for the changes in our lives and ministries.

    Introduction: A. I want to begin this sermon with a statement from Peter T. Forsythe. 1. I believe he was right on when he said, “The first duty of every soul is to find not its freedom, but its Master.” (Warren W. Wiersbe, The Integrity Crisis, Thomas Nelson Pub., 1991, p. ...read more

    The language of Heaven is one of the facets of the sacred secret of God that was revealed at Pentecost.

    “Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth.” (Jn 4:23-24 NIV) Jesus said that those who believe in Him ...read more

    Barnabas - Giving & Receiving Encouragement

    Could you use some encouragement? Couldn't we all? See how Barnabas is a wonderful example of the blessings of Christian encouragement. Encoruagement needed, given and received!

    “You look like you could use some encouragement.” Has anyone ever said that to you? Maybe they didn’t have to say it out loud, because the look on your face said it all. It had been a long week at work, it had been a disappointing meeting, it had been a rough day at school, it had been another ...read more

    The Ministry Of Signs And Wonders

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Apr 8, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 16,769 views

    Jesus said the supernatural Signs and Wonders are to “accompany those who believe” (Mark 16:17a NIV), and they should be fully understood by every Christian that they are to accompany them wherever they are.

    Many within the church believe that after the Apostles died and their writings were collected in the New Testament, the place of Signs and Wonders in evangelism has passed, and Christians should not pursue them today. This does not mean miracles don't happen. It just says they are not the ...read more

    The Beat Of Our Heart

    Our heart matters to God. And our heart will either lead us towards God, or away from God. When you listen to your heart now, and every heartbeat is translated into words, what words would you hear?

    A heart beats about 115,000 times each day. A heart pumps about 2,000 gallons of blood every day. A woman’s heart beats slightly faster than a man’s heart. Most heart attacks happen on a Monday. A heart is a symbol of love, life, or anything that is at the center of utmost ...read more

    It can be overwhelming to think about the changes that need to be made as we look ahead to a post-covid world. Be a hero maker, be a Barnabas in a world where everyone wants to be Paul.

    We are looking at Psalm 16 the golden Psalm. Peter preached about Psalm 16 in his Pentecost sermon and Paul preached on Psalm 16 on his first missionary journey. It was the calm assurance that was instilled into the birth and growth of the church.

    There is a lot of trouble around us. There may also be trouble and conflict with in us. It is everywhere. This world has always been a place of turmoil since the fall. Adam and Eve where the perfect couple in the garden. They disobeyed God, sin entered, and things went amiss. Things went from bad ...read more

    In the Bible, people often fasted when they were serious about getting direction (or a vision) from God. Who fasted in the Bible, and why should we?
