    Today we look at the fourth area that God has to win. God raises the bar on this area because instead of having to win; it is a must win

    Introduction Today, we come to our fourth “God has to Win” sermon. We have seen over the past several weeks that God has to win the battle of our choices; then secondly, God has to win control over those areas of our life that we have trouble giving over to Him; and last week, we saw that as we ...read more

    Simeon and Anna did not live their senior lives without purpose, they dedicated the rest of their lives to praise God and were blessed for it.

    Simeon and Anna were different from the rest of the older people in the place Jesus was circumcised. Their difference made them stand out, if you would have been looking for it. We must praise; it builds all those God uses. I. Eyes Expecting God’s Promise (25-27) A. His faith changed his ...read more

    What does the birth have to do with the death? The birth and death of Jesus are both foretold to create a larger impact that we are to share.

    There’s a unique tension at this time of year between the celebration of Christ’s birth and the eventuality of his death. It comes directly at us in the scripture which follows the birth narrative. Just 8 days after his birth, a prophecy is spoken about the Messiah that should have had Mary and ...read more

     | 527 views

    God is calling out to each of us to turn to Him – to repent and follow completely. What we do with this simple command shows who He is to us (it’s personal); so if we choose to run away from the things of God then we choose us over Him!

    A homeless man walks into a bar. What would you do? (Sermon based on TV show What Would You Do? , the episode centering on the treatment of the homeless.)

    Show video from You Tube “WWYD? - No shoes, no shirt, no pants, no service!” I cannot watch this video without being overcome by emotions. I am forced to ask myself “What would I do?” Would I have been one of the many to sit and watch as this person is cast out of the bar? Would I have turned my ...read more

    A tightrope is a picture of Christian liberty with legalism on one side and unrestrained license on the other. But somewhere in between the two is the beautiful tightrope of balance, and the balance bar for a Christian is love.

    INTRODUCTION I invite you to open your Bibles to Romans 14. We’re going to start reading at verse 13. You remember last week, I started the message by holding a gold earring to my ear and some of you thought, well there’s nothing wrong with a guy wearing an earring. But others of you, ...read more

    The story of the holy family and their encounter with Simeon and Anna, demonstrates how we can keep the Spirit of Christmas vital in our lives throughout the year.

    Luke 2: 22-40 “Destiny” INTRODUCTION Christmas 2008 is quickly fading. The radio stations, which have been playing Christmas music since early November, have switched to their normal fare.

    There is truth that we must acknowledge. That truth is Jesus! He raises the bar to our lives by what he says and how he lives. We follow him in truth.

    1. Scales: A husband stepped on one of those penny scales that tell a person’s fortune and weight. "Listen to this," he said to his wife, showing her a small, white card. "It says I’m energetic, bright, and resourceful." "Yeah," his wife nodded, "and it has your weight wrong, too." ...read more

    Simeon and Anna are great examples of how God works when we faithfully wait on Him. Waiting does not mean stagnation but following the leading of the Word and SPIRIT as we patiently hope for God's fulfilled promise.

    God's Waiting Room I. TEXT: Luke 2:1-38 (NRSV) KEY VERSES: Luke 2:25-38 (NRSV) II.

    Annas and Caiphas exhibit the truth that if we do not know God, we do not know ourselves. That produces insecurity, which, in turn, yields destructive defensiveness.

    A riddle to begin with today. Can you answer this question? How do two porcupines hug one another? Very carefully! It’s one of those encounters in which, no matter how you approach it, somebody is likely to get hurt. And we all know some porcupines. Any one of us can be a porcupine on any ...read more

    XMAS - Advent sharpens spiritual sight; like Simeon and Anna, we recognize Jesus through devotion, worship, and Spirit-led attentiveness as God draws near.

    THE EYES HAVE IT There is a quiet kind of beauty in the Advent season that has nothing to do with lights, trees, music, or celebration. It is the beauty of waiting. Of watching. Of learning to see God when He draws near. Advent, at its heart, is a season of holy attentiveness—where the people of ...read more
