    Contributed by Brian Atwood on Apr 24, 2009
    based on 34 ratings
     | 25,829 views

    Two big ways Jesus heals the brokenhearted.

    We’re in the series, "The Case for the Real Jesus, How Jesus is not Synthetic or False, but Real and Reliable!" We’re using Psalm 34:8 (NCV) as our Scriptural theme for this series. "Examine and see how good the Lord is. Happy is the person who trusts him." Historical evidence abounds for the ...read more

    Jesus And The Post-Resurrection Fish-Fry

    Jesus appeared on the beach as an intervention to keep the disciples from missing out on Pentecost and going off-the-track of ministering to the entire world.

    This is going to seem like a strange question, but how many of you have heard of “The Amazing Randi?” He was a stage magician, “mentalist,” and escape artist (in the tradition of Houdini). He once escaped from a block of ice and once escaped from a straitjacket while hanging upside-down over ...read more

    A Generous Heart Series

     | 6,080 views

    Our love is expressed in generosity. Our generosity ensures that we will more marvelously reflect the God who created us.

    1 John 4:13-21 “A Generous Heart” INTRODUCTION Living a life without limits, and being transformed into that life is all based on love. Without love there is only a shadow of life and certainly no great actions of faith or courage. Unfortunately, love is not as common as we assume it is. It ...read more

    You Can Remove Trash, Bugs & Weeds But How About Darkness?

    Contributed by Doug Koehler on Mar 20, 2009
    based on 26 ratings
     | 26,628 views

    Children often want darkness removed because they fear what they cannot see. For adults the darkness is more of a friend. Jesus is the remover of darkness but the light of the world is still waiting for many to see it. Sometimes it is hard even for Christ

    Open up the yellow pages and you can find a ton of listings that will remove pretty much whatever you want removed. There are ads for chimney sweeps to remove built up grime. There are people willing and able to remove insects, weeds, garbage, wallpaper, old fixtures, homes, cars and even bad ...read more

    The Transfiguration Series

    Contributed by Rev. Matthew Parker on Feb 21, 2010
     | 16,723 views

    The Transfiguration dramatatically demonstrated that Jesus is more than a simple Rabbi. To the disciples still struggling to figure out who He is, it a powerful revelation of Jesus' divinity.

    The Transfiguration Today we begin our journey to the cross, to that one Event that divided history in half, to the one Event that tore the veil between God and humanity. This one Event is specifically why you are here today and why, if you have faith today in Jesus Christ, your life is ...read more

    Matthew 8:16-17 - My Spiritual Battle For A Panadol - Matthew 8 - Part 6 Series

    based on 15 ratings
     | 11,633 views

    Now this is interesting. Demon possession, evil spirits cast out, people being healed and a prophecy from the distant past saying this applied to Jesus. Why aren't all people healed today when they come to Jesus?

    Matthew 8:16-17 - "MY SPIRITUAL BATTLE FOR A PANADOL" - Matthew 8 - Part 6 Demons! There was a time when I told the Lord that I would do whatever He wanted me to do EXCEPT CAST OUT DEMONS and do weird stuff like that with the occult. I now realise that Jesus power and authority far exceeds that of ...read more

    Who Dug Up The Roof

     | 4,577 views

    Who were the men who were willing to step outside the norm and dig a hole in a roof for the benefit of a friend?

    As they moved closer to the crowd their hopes begin to sink, what they thought would be a fairly simple task had taken on monumental proportions. When the suggestion came up to take their lame friend to Jesus everyone thought it was a great idea, all they had to do to get their friend to walk was ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 5,354 views

    I have always thought that some CLAIRVOYANTS and some of those who prepare HOROSCOPES got their knowledge from demons. I have never been in doubt that WIGI BOARDS ARE DANGEROUS because they open people up to DEMONIC INFLUENCES.

    Part 9 - Matthew 8:16-17 - ON DEMONS, CLAIRVOYANTS, HOROSCOPES AND WITCHCRAFT I have always thought that some CLAIRVOYANTS and some of those who prepare HOROSCOPES got their knowledge from demons.

    The greatness of a church is not measured in how many come into the church but in how many go out in ministry. The church gathers; then the church scatters. The church must go outside its walls to reach people who need the Lord. The effectiveness of our c

    Part 15 - Matthew 8:28-34 - An Unhealthy Desire For Power Series

    Contributed by Ross Cochrane on Mar 7, 2010
    based on 29 ratings
     | 9,674 views

    THE DESIRE FOR POWER IS OFTEN THE DOORWAY FOR THE DEMONIC. These men couldn't be bound by chains but they were certainly bound by Satan. They were almost completely under the control Satan, enslaved to him.

    Part 15 - Matthew 8:28-34 - AN UNHEALTHY DESIRE FOR POWER My daughter and son-in-law once lived in Parramatta in Sydney, quite near an old cemetery. It had historic significance for Sydney and was protected, I think, by the national trust. It angered me when it was vandalised. A part of our ...read more

    She touches the fringe of His robe in order to be healed. In Matthew 9:22 (NLT) it says "Jesus turned around, and when He saw her He said, "Daughter, be encouraged! Your faith has made you well." And the woman was healed at that moment." Are you in desper

    Have you ever felt like giving up? Have you ever wondered, even in what you try to do for God, whether it is doing any good? Let God be the judge of that!

    SEEMINGLY INSIGNIFICANT Text: John 3:1-16 Were so programmed to think BIG that many times we miss the power of SMALL!

    Jesus came to conquer and disarm Satan. Mark 1 is about "authority". The minisrty of Jesus actively engages and defeats satan and his demons. The ultimate defeat was the cross and resurrection.
