    This is a funeral sermon for Bessie McCloud (died 1991), a Christian who was bed-ridden for several years before her death.

    Today, we seek to draw some eternal meaning from the life that Bessie McCloud has lived, in hopes that it will help us find God’s will for our own human life. Bessie’s life spanned almost the entire 20th century, but for the Christian who has died, we can see a faith history that stretches back ...read more

    Psalm 36 shows us that a trustworthy God can satisfy our every need, if we will simply trust Him in everything.

    Introduction: Read Psalm 36 I heard of a car bumper sticker that says, "Honk, if anything falls off." Does anybody feel that your life is like that sometimes? I. God Is Trustworthy (verses 5-7a) Look at verses 5-7a. Notice how the Psalmist compares the character of God to nature. He wants ...read more

     | 26,144 views

    This message, based on Matthew 5:8, shows how impossible it is to have a pure heart without God’s help.

    Introduction: Read The Beatitudes ~ Matthew 5:3-10. Jesus said in the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew 5:8, “Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God.” I. Purity Beyond Our Reach Three of the ways we can stumble in purity is with impure words, impure emotions and impure thoughts ...read more

  • Victory Attitudes

    based on 106 ratings
     | 8,838 views

    Mark 13 shows us the attitudes of being intent, confident, and expressive will bring us victory in the evil days in which we live.

    As we look at Mark chapter 13, we notice an overwhelming sense of doom in our future. We are told that "nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be earthquakes in various places, and there will be famines and troubles. And these are (just) the beginning of ...read more

  • Our God Is Not Small

    As we draw closer to the Jesus who was Transfigured, we will find that God is bigger than all of our problems.

    Today is Transfiguration Sunday. On this Sunday in the church year, we call to our memory the event when Jesus Christ went up on the mountain and his appearance radically changed before Moses, Elijah, Peter, James, and John. Read Luke 9:28-36 Several years ago now, J.B. Phillips wrote a best ...read more

  • Surviving Your Finances Series

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Mar 27, 2001
    based on 84 ratings
     | 10,812 views

    In order to survive our finances, we need to examine our heart attitude toward money and possessions.

    When it comes to money and finances, preachers often fall into one of two extremes. The first is to avoid mentioning money altogether; or, if they absolutely must talk about it, to approach the topic very gingerly and apologetically, with a vague sense of embarrassment, as if money were a subject ...read more

  • Surviving Your Marriage Series

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Mar 27, 2001
    based on 185 ratings
     | 18,152 views

    In order to survive your marriage, you need to: (1) seek to serve rather than be served, and (2) stop trying to change each other

    When a man and woman are first married, they typically share a dream of having a wonderful, loving, life together. But too often, after a few years their marriage resembles a field of battle more than a field of dreams. It may not be all-out warfare; the combatants may be able to put up a ...read more

  • Surviving Loss Series

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Mar 27, 2001
    based on 64 ratings
     | 10,727 views

    We can survive loss by allowing ourselves to grieve, by receiving God’s comfort and strength, and by trusting in God’s sovereign purposes.

    As your pastor, I try to be as open and transparent as possible. I want you to know me well enough to see that the faith I talk about every week is real. And one of the ways you get to know someone is by asking what they like. Favorite food, favorite hobby. Favorite movie. So, in case any of you ...read more

  • Surviving Job Stress Series

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Mar 27, 2001
    based on 144 ratings
     | 13,508 views

    In order to survive job stress, we must put God first; we must sometimes say "no" to other things in order to say "yes" to God.

    Do you ever feel overwhelmed by the demands of your job, as if no matter how hard you work, you just get farther and farther behind? You go into the office early so you can get some work done before the phone starts ringing, you work through lunch answering e-mail, you stay late trying to get the ...read more

    based on 137 ratings
     | 14,125 views

    We come to know God by obeying Him.

    I’d like to begin by telling you a little story about something that happened to me this week. I took the minivan in for an oil change at the Chrysler dealer. I was sitting in the waiting room, which was empty except for me and one other man. I was a little bored, so I struck up a conversation. And ...read more

  • Seeking God Through Giving Series

     | 11,782 views

    We come to know God through giving.

    This morning, our topic is "Seeking God Through Giving". As you know if you’ve been attending this church for very long, we don’t emphasize giving. We don’t take an offering, we don’t pass the plate. We just have a basket in the back for contributions. I don’t look at the giving records, so I don’t ...read more

    We come to know God through service.

    This morning is the third message in our five-part series on Seeking God. Just to review, on December 31st, I suggested to the church that we each make one resolution for the coming year: that in the year 2001, we would seek to know Christ more deeply than ever before. Why is this important? ...read more

    We come to know God through prayer.

    My goal this morning is very simple: to persuade you to pray. Not to persuade you that you ought to pray, or to convince you that prayer is a good thing. That’s not enough. No, what I want is to motivate you to actually do it. So if you leave here today agreeing with everything I said, and if you ...read more

    We come to know God through the Scriptures

    This rather imposing book I’m holding is not an easy one to read. In fact, it can be very difficult to understand. For one thing, it was written thousands of years ago, in the context of ancient cultures very different from ours. Their popular songs, their well-known stories, their familiar ...read more

  • Getting Past Your Past

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Mar 29, 2001
    based on 419 ratings
     | 54,161 views

    The good news is that we don’t have to be paralyzed by regret, we don’t have to let it rob us of the joy and hope that God has promised us as our birthright in Christ

    In "A Christmas Carol", Ebenezer Scrooge is visited by the Ghost of Christmas Past, who against his will, takes him back to a time when he was still a young man. Scrooge sees himself proposing to the woman he loved, a woman who later breaks their engagement because she realizes that he has come to ...read more
