    This study deals with deacons in the church. It is the eighth sudy in the book of Acts

    The Helpers (Deacons) that were Needed and Chosen Acts 6:1-7 Acts # 08 As we look at this text I am using the term deacon but I am not positive that these men where in fact the first deacons. But I do believe they are a model of what the deacons where. Acts is the model of the early Church so ...read more

    Who will rescue us from ourselves - from our lives of profound inconsistency.

    (Part of this sermon was inspired by a message I read at "30 Minutes One Sunday" - but beyond the initial comments, the remainder of the sermon went in a completely different direction than that which I read!) Many of us here today have had, or still have, many problems in our lives. We are ...read more

    All churches have problems, but when we serve together in the unity, and power of the Holy Spirit there is no problem that will overcome or distract us from our main purpose. Taking the Gospel to all the world.

    Intro: A rather pompous-looking deacon was working hard to impress upon a class of boys the importance of living the Christian life. “Why do people call me a Christian?” the man asked. After a moment’s pause, one of the boys said, “Maybe it’s because they don’t know you.” The answer I believe the ...read more

    Now there is something that is played out here on earth but it is planned in heaven. We call that a divine encounter.

    Divine encounter. Acts 8: 26 -- 40. 09/05/04 For the past few Sunday mornings, we have been talking about the main business of the church. The main business of the church is to tell people how they can be forgiven of their sin and go to heaven. That is evangelism and we want to have an ...read more

    Passing The Towel Series

    based on 28 ratings
     | 6,827 views

    Service is central to Spiritual development and growth of the Church. A look at Jesus and the early Church supplies a great example of the process for building workers.

    (Open with an illustration: Hold up, one at a time, several kinds of towels and mention their use: paper towel, dish towel, face towel, bath towel and beach towel). The story is told of a young Christian nurse that began working with lepers in India, bathing their wounds and bringing them food ...read more

    While in seminary, I was asked, "What is the best translation of the New Testament?" I replied, "My Grandmother." Today Stephen serves as our best example of the qualities of a servant. Let’s examine them together!

    Introduction I. I was standing in the hall following Chapel at Seminary and was asked by a fellow student, what I thought was the best translation of the New Testament was, I replied, "My Grandmother..."

    Godly, bold, spiritual are just a few words to describe the man Stephen. His life is an example for us all to follow. Let’s examine why!

    Introduction Godly, bold, faithful, friend, by now your asking, "Where can I meet a guy like this..." if you are a single girl. They are hard to find.

    Just because you are following a well marked trail doesn’t mean that whoever made it knew where they were going. Stephen knew who to follow and why. Let’s examine this one man’s Godly example!

    Introduction While living in TN we enjoyed visiting Bays Mt. Wolves, beaver, wild life was abundant. Most of all, there were plenty of Mountain trails. One could walk for miles. There was a sign at the entrance that said, "Marked Trails." Those were the ones we took, however one wise member of my ...read more

    God’s purpose for the church will be accomplished. But will we be part of it? That depends.

    I love this illustration from Sermon Central: A teacher was asking children in his Sunday school class, “If I sold my house and my car, had a big garage sale and gave all my money to the church, would I get to heaven?” “NO”! The children answered. “If I cleaned the church everyday, mowed the yard, ...read more

    Our opportunity for service may be in sight in a moment, and bypass us in another if we’re not ready to run to obedience. Philip ran to do God’s bidding.

    Following the Acts record it would appear that the newborn church had been pretty cozy and comfortable, up until the martyrdom of Stephen. It had begun with a very public demonstration of God’s power in the coming of the Holy Spirit, Peter and the others had boldly proclaimed their risen Lord ...read more
