  • Deliverance - Psalm 124

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Mar 24, 2002
    based on 74 ratings
     | 48,495 views

    God often shows up when all other hope is gone.

    Today we conclude our series of messages on the "Songs of Ascent," Psalms 120 – 134. These are traveling songs, sung by the people of ancient Israel on their journeys up to Jerusalem, as they made their way to the capitol city for the three annual feasts. Taken together, these Psalms form a kind of ...read more

  • The Love Of God Displayed In The Cross

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Mar 31, 2002
    based on 74 ratings
     | 35,892 views

    God’s love is supremely exhibited in the cross of Christ.

    The cross of Christ – by which we mean his suffering, and death, and resurrection – is a topic packed with significance. Without the cross, there would be no Christianity. No forgiveness of sins, no eternal life, no hope for the future, no power for this present life. The cross is more than a ...read more

  • Open Our Eyes

    based on 56 ratings
     | 8,067 views

    This is a sermon preached to a church in danger of becoming discouraged over a lack of recent growth.

    Welcome once again to WestShore Community Church. It’s been twenty-seven months since we began weekly services, and during that time we’ve been through a lot together. We’ve shared times of rejoicing and celebration – Linda and Scott’s wedding, for instance, and the birth of their daughter Hope. ...read more

    Friendships are important to our spiritual health and spiritual growth

    Good morning! And welcome to WestShore Community Church, on this our first-ever Friendship Sunday. It’s always good to see our members and regular attenders, but this week we’re thrilled to have with us so many friends, both new and old. It reminds us that many of the people Jesus ministered to ...read more

  • The Tax Collector And The Pharisee

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Apr 21, 2002
    based on 69 ratings
     | 22,429 views

    Self righteousness and a critical, judgmental spirit usually go together. Why? Because self righteousness is a zero-sum game.

    Over the next few weeks we’ll be looking at some of the parables of our Lord. A parable is a fictional story told to illustrate a spiritual reality. Jesus told many of them. As a preacher, He knew that what people often remember best about a sermon are the illustrations. He understood that ...read more

    The first in a series which built on the "Interactions: Transformation" study book from Willow Creek Resources. Sermons follow study chapters.

  • A Failed Church?

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Mar 17, 2003
    based on 66 ratings
     | 5,937 views

    God’s view of "failure" vs. the world’s view.

    This morning, I’d like to offer some thoughts on where we’ve been, where we are now, and where we go from here. I don’t claim that this is a comprehensive summary of our history as a church; nor do I present this as the final, authoritative word on what we’ve suffered and accomplished. For one ...read more

  • Jesus Christ - Master Military Strategist

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Apr 6, 2003
    based on 64 ratings
     | 6,606 views

    We need to trust Christ’s "war plan", even when it seems the battle is going against us.

    Over the past couple of weeks, since the war in Iraq began, we have been subjected to a barrage of television commentators expressing their views on the conduct of the war. Every channel has their own set of talking heads – retired generals arguing about whether we have enough troops and tanks on ...read more

  • Send Us A Different Messiah!

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Apr 13, 2003
    based on 56 ratings
     | 6,974 views

    The crowds shouting "Hosanna!" soon were shouting "Crucify Him!" What accounts for their sudden change of heart?

    We are assembled here this morning, as millions of other Christians are assembled in other churches all over the world, to commemorate our Lord’s entry into Jerusalem at the close of his earthly ministry, almost two thousand years ago. We share this celebration, not only with our brothers and ...read more

  • From Passover To Easter

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Apr 22, 2003
    based on 87 ratings
     | 11,685 views

    The feast of Passover foreshadowed Easter in several important ways.

    There are many kinds of sermons. One is the kind you hear from ministers on Sunday mornings. Another is what Saint Francis of Assisi was referring to, when he said, "Preach the gospel at all times. If necessary, use words." Saint Francis, who lived in the thirteenth century, understood that those ...read more

  • Seeking God

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Jan 19, 2003
    based on 89 ratings
     | 25,034 views

    Seeking God is a lifelong quest for every Christian.

    At the beginning of a new year, I like to get back to basics, to talk about the fundamentals of the Christian faith. What are we really doing here? Why do we get up every Sunday morning and come together with other people, to sing songs about God and listen to a talk on religion? Why do we pray, ...read more

  • The Rewards Of Seeking God

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Jan 26, 2003
    based on 85 ratings
     | 27,797 views

    God promises great rewards to those who seek Him, and it is a proper motive for obedience to consider these rewards.

    Last week, we discussed the topic of "seeking God." We saw that the pursuit of God is a lifelong quest. It’s not merely a phase in our spiritual growth, nor is it an optional activity. Rather, it’s fundamental to our lives as Christians, from beginning to end. You could even say that continuing to ...read more

  • Seeking God And Holiness

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Feb 2, 2003
    based on 71 ratings
     | 9,212 views

    Seeking God requires a commitment to growing in personal holiness.

    For the past few weeks, we’ve been considering, in a broad sense, the topic of seeking God. What it means to pursue God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength. Why we should desire to do so, why it’s beneficial and even essential that we continue striving for God throughout our lives – ...read more

  • Declaring War On Sin

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Feb 8, 2003
    based on 67 ratings
     | 4,133 views

    If we desire to know God, we must declare war on sin.

    For the past few weeks, we’ve been talking about seeking God. What it means to pursue God with all our heart, soul, mind, and strength. And why it’s necessary to do so; why it’s not only desirable and beneficial, but even essential, that we continue striving for God throughout our lives. Last week, ...read more

  • Saddam Dances To God's Tune

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Feb 16, 2003
    based on 154 ratings
     | 5,769 views

    Just like another Babylonian king, Nebuchadnezzar, Saddam Hussein has to do God’s will, like it or not.

    If you’ve been paying attention to the news for the last few weeks, you’ve probably concluded, as I have, that we are marching inexorably toward an imminent war in Iraq, regardless of what the U.N. may do. President Bush and various cabinet officials have said as much in their public statements – ...read more
