    The Son Always Rises!

    Contributed by Casey Campbell on Apr 8, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,388 views

    This is an Easter sermon that speaks to the good news of Jesus' resurrection.

    John 20:1-18 ~ The Son Always Rises! (9) In the pre-dawn hours of that spectacular Sunday morning in Jerusalem so many years ago, there was no one who expected anything new, no one lying sleepless in anticipation that the world soon would change forever, no one with the even the slightest notion ...read more

    Burst Forth And Come Down!

    How easy it is to become parched and dry. What we need are fresh showers of blessing to soften our hearts and bring fruitfulness to our lives. The Holy Spirit wants us to understand that we are helpless without Him. The Holy Spirit chose human vessels to

    Burst Forth and Come Down! Isaiah 64:1-4NLT Over 100 years ago, Samuel Chadwick, a great methodist preacher and leader in England, summed it up concisely: “The Christian religion is hopeless without the Holy Ghost.” "If you have the Word without the Spirit, you'll dry up.  If you ...read more

    Keeping faith, and resting in the LORD.

    FROM FRETTING TO TRUST. Psalm 37:1-11; Psalm 37:39-40. PSALM 37:1. Somebody is in trouble, fretting because of the unfairness of life: but the pastor’s responsibility is not to burden the poor soul with a ‘snap out of it’ sort of approach, which often only leads to further despair; but rather to ...read more

    From The Last Supper To The Arrest In Gethsemane.

    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,621 views

    Over against and alongside the manipulation of Satan, there was another plan being worked out, this time by God. This was the plan of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who is, after all, the fulfillment of the Passover.

    FROM THE LAST SUPPER TO THE ARREST IN GETHSEMANE. Luke 22:14-53. “When the hour was come,” we read, “Jesus sat down with the twelve apostles.” Jesus was in complete control as He expressed His desire to share the Passover with His disciples before He suffered. “For,” He said, “I will not any ...read more

    Easter Of Unending Joy

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Mar 15, 2022
     | 1,339 views

    Christ’s transfigured body is the template for our own, just as His resurrected body is.

    Easter of Unending Joy In one of my favorite Lenten hymns, the congregation sings “O Lord, with us abide.” The final verse, then, prays “Abide with us so when this life of suffering is past, an Easter of unending joy we may attain at last.” That unending, joyful Easter is what we all aim for at ...read more

    Let us rejoice and be glad in it.

    A BEAUTIFUL DAY. Psalm 118:14-29. This Psalm is the last of the processional Psalms which were sung by pilgrims on their way up to Jerusalem for the great Jewish feasts. There are echoes of the Passover, and anticipations of the death and resurrection of Jesus. Psalm 118:14 takes us back to ...read more

    How To Worship God Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jun 16, 2022
     | 4,049 views

    Psalm 100 shows how seriously worship was taken in Old Testament times. That in itself is enough to tell us we should take worship seriously today. There is a back and forth rhythm to this Psalm.

    Do you need to learn to do something new? How will you learn? You could read a how to book. You could watch an instructional video on the internet. But if you want to know how to worship God you should spend time in Psalm 100 the divinely inspired how to worship guide. Psalm 100 Shout for joy to ...read more

     | 3,344 views

    Reminding our children of their rich heritage in the LORD.

    LEST THEY FORGET Psalm 78:1-7. Psalm 78 is entitled a “Maschil” of Asaph, thereby signifying an INSTRUCTION. It is one of the longest Psalms in the Book, not only outlining a history of Israel, but encouraging us to LEARN from this history (cf. Psalm 78:8). Mr. Spurgeon, in his ‘Treasury of ...read more

    Tough Questions For Churches Today. Series

    Contributed by David Rinkes on Nov 8, 2022
     | 1,544 views

    Tough questions for Churches “Is it working?” and “How do we know?”. We want to help disciples grow, but it’s difficult to know if we are helping through the growth of the church these days.

    Job 19:23-27 19:23 "O that my words were written down! O that they were inscribed in a book! 19:24 O that with an iron pen and with lead they were engraved on a rock forever! 19:25 For I know that my Redeemer lives, and that at the last he will stand upon the earth; 19:26 and after my skin ...read more

    A One Time Does It Sacrifice

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 6, 2022
     | 1,117 views

    We are given a depiction of Jesus as the High Priest. Also, a portrayal of Christ as the ultimate sacrifice for the sin humanity is given.

    The writer of this Scripture has given us a depiction of Jesus Christ as the High Priest, which is superior to the priesthood from the Old Testament. He also presents us with a portrayal of the sacrifice of Christ as far greater to the multitude of sacrifices offered by the old priesthood. Under ...read more

    We often find excuses to not gather and even if we do gather, we find reasons to not be involved in the work of the church.

    WELCOME & INTRODUCTION - What a long wait it has been! Let me begin by thanking you. You were willing to wait for us. You didn’t have to. You could have easily moved on to another potential candidate. Instead, you waited for us. For that we are entirely grateful. - And let me add. We are so ...read more

    A Fragrant Offering

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Sep 3, 2022

     | 2,027 views

    Our sacrifices to God are fragrant offerings to Him.

    The character is Jonah and I want to begin by considering the sacrifices of the Hebrew people to God. The Law of Moses required the people to make a variety of sacrifices to God. The important point of the sacrifice was that it was to come from the heart, not merely be an outward activity of simply ...read more

    Mary, The Mother Of Jesus

     | 7,427 views

    In this sermon, the preacher focuses on the Virgin Mary, the mother of Jesus Christ. He believes that after Jesus Christ, Mary is the principal person in the history of salvation. He explains that it was pure love-in-faith which brought about Mary's motherhood to Jesus.

    Reflection Mary, the Mother of Jesus Why did God choose Mary? What was His reason for giving this particular place in His plan of salvation? This question can time to time arise in us when we think of Mary the Mother of Jesus. Christianity is not simply a religion. First and foremost, ...read more

    Even now, God is waiting to forgive.

    HONEY OUT OF THE ROCK. Psalm 81:8-16. If we allow that the summons to praise (Psalm 81:1) is a call to celebrate the kingship of the LORD, it is because He, and He alone, is God (Psalm 81:9-10; cf. Deuteronomy 6:4-5). Psalm 81:8. “Hear, O my people, and I will testify unto you: O Israel, ...read more

    Scourge Of The Tongue

    Contributed by James Dina on Jul 20, 2020
     | 13,756 views

    The tongue is a small weapon. It is a great mercy to be delivered from the tongue. The tongue was originally made to be an organ of God’s praise but it has now become an instrument of unrighteousness. The tongue inflicts greater wounds than the sword.

    SCOURGE OF THE TONGUE Job 5:21 ---- "You shall be hidden from the scourge of the tongue, and you shall not be afraid of destruction when it comes." The tongue is a small weapon, but it is a cutting one; it is like a scourge ...read more
