    Allowing God to explode our pre-conceived ideas.

    Fitting Truth Into Our Box I heard the story of a couple who married, over the years when the wife would prepare to cook a roast she would do as she had seen her mother do. She would cut off the small end of the roast. Years passed, and children were born. One day when the couple’s daughter was ...read more

    What Does Faith Look Like?

     | 19,508 views

    Is it possible to see faith? If we can recognize it, perhaps it may be easier to walk in it!

    WHAT DOES FAITH LOOK LIKE? Acts 14:9 “Paul looked directly at him, saw that he had faith to be healed and called out, Stand up on your feet!. At that the man jumped up and began to walk.” Faith is perhaps one, if not the, most important element necessary to grow in the Christian walk. Goerge ...read more

    Plutonium At Iconium

    Contributed by Kent Simmons on May 22, 2002

     | 6,069 views

    The gospel message like the potential of Plutonium represents enormous power for those who will receive it.

    Sermon Notes “Plutonium at Iconium” Acts 14:1-7 Kent Simmons Scripture Passage: AC 14:1 At Iconium Paul and Barnabas went as usual into the Jewish synagogue. There they spoke so effectively that a great number of Jews and Gentiles believed. [2] But the Jews who refused to believe stirred up the ...read more

    Apostolic Christianity is opportunity driven.

    Do verses 2-3 make sense to you? "But the Jews who spurned God’s message stirred up distrust among the Gentiles against Paul and Barnabas, saying all sorts of evil things about them..." At which point--based on prior patterns in the book of Acts, you’d expect Luke to say, "So they were let over ...read more

    The Living God - [preaching]

    Biblical preaching always leads to DECISION, sometimes to DISTURBANCE, and, as is the case in America today, often to DIVISION. Good applications for not worshiping Man/Pope, etc. Powerpoint at website.

    The Living God Acts 14:1-19 Powerpoint at: http://www.gbcdecatur.org/sermons/LivingGod.html We just celebrated Easter and how one claiming to be God proved it by rising again from the dead. And if John Paul II comes back to life following his death then that will be more evidence than just his ...read more

    "Are You Listening?"

    Contributed by Clark Tanner on Apr 12, 2005
    based on 27 ratings
     | 2,940 views

    When the Word of the Lord is truly preached, the Lord of the Word is speaking. Are you listening?

    “And they began calling Barnabas, Zeus, and Paul, Hermes, because he was the chief speaker.” Every once in a while we preachers get a reality check concerning just how well we are communicating and how well people are listening to the things we say from the pulpit. That’s good. I think ...read more

    Let’s be careful to represent God to people the way He has represented Himself; as gracious provider, protector, benefactor.

    …and preach the gospel to you in order that you should turn from these vain things to a living God, who made the heaven and the earth and the sea, and all that is in them. And in the generations gone by He permitted all the nations to go their own ways; and yet He did not leave Himself without ...read more

    Listen To God's Testimony About Himself

    God reveals himself in nature and in the Bible.

    Have you ever had to testify in court? I came this close to testifying as a character witness once. I was supposed to tell the court how the accused had changed since his run in with the Law. I was happy to testify but I was a little nervous about it too. I knew that every word I would speak while ...read more

    Cultivating A Grateful Heart

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Nov 21, 2004
    based on 128 ratings
     | 27,744 views

    If I am going to cultivate a grateful heart, I need to change my focus: 1. From what I don’t have to what I do have. 2. From getting a blessing to being a blessing. 3. From earth to eternity.

    One of the great mysteries of our culture is that we are the most privileged and prosperous people who have ever lived on the face of the earth — past and present — and yet many Americans are not happy. We have more of everything, and yet we are not content. Even when good things happen we ...read more

    What kind of Christian are you? God’s kindom is either growing or suffering because of your faith or lack thereof. Determine to serve as one who builds and blesses!

    I watched them tear a building down; A band of men in a busy town. With a `HO-HEAVE-HO’ and a lusty yell; They swung a beam and a sidewall fell. I asked the foreman, `Are these men skilled? And the men you’d hire if you had to build?’ He gave a laugh and said, `No indeed! Common labor is all I ...read more

    Even though many disciples relished the privilege to preach in the name of Jesus, persecution caused many to quit. They thrived on the sense of power as they spoke with the enabling of the Holy Spirit, but disliked the opposition they encountered.

    Taking the Pleasant With the Unpleasant (Acts 14:1-8) 1. Why do you think some people grow tired of their jobs? Every job has its so called good and bad points. Yet, some aspects of service are not always considered as important as less enjoyable aspects. Even though many disciples relished the ...read more

    Despite the growing opposition to the gospel, Paul and Barnabas never stopped preachign the gospel, even at therisk of their lives. They also give a good example of mission strategy.

    If you were here two weeks ago you’ll remember how, when Paul and Barnabas got to Pisidian Antioch they first went to the synagogue to speak about Jesus as the promised Messiah, but then when their message was rejected by the Jews they turned to the Gentiles. And the Gentiles gladly received this ...read more

    This message identifies three things we need to practice as believers in our walk of faith.

    You have all heard the expression “practice makes perfect”. Do you believe it to be true? One of the greatest golfers of all time is Tiger Woods and when asked what he feels the greatest factor in his success is he attributes it to intense practice. He continually repeats the same routine, ...read more
