You Might Be A Great Servant If...

Contributed by Sherm Nichols on Nov 13, 2006

This sermon examines the life of John the Baptist as a model of servanthood and challenges the listener to look for those qualities in himself.

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jun 17, 2015

The Corinthian church was having problems. They have asked Paul to help. This passage is Paul’s 8th answer to them about a specific problem. Paul gives them the root cause for the trouble they were having. It was pride—pride in who they were and what they knew.

Grow Premium Sermon

Contributed by PRO Premium on Oct 8, 2023

Christian growth is a complex process involving God's Word, fellowship, prayer, and worship, but ultimately, it is God who causes the growth, similar to a farmer who prepares the soil and plants the seed, but relies on God for the growth.

Last week we began a new 4-week series called Rooted. The agricultural imagery is strong with this series, and we will be talking a lot today about seeds, soil, and growth.
