    God Of Grace And God Of Glory Series

    Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 30, 2014
     | 10,857 views

    Have you ever been in a relationship with someone and it seemed like you could not please them? That’s somewhat true of God, because if you try on the basis of your own behavior to earn God’s approval or his glory, you’ll miss the target every time.

    INTRODUCTION People often say about others, “To know him is to love him!” This is really true of Jesus. To know Jesus is to love him. If you know him, you love him. If you don’t know him, you can’t love him until you do know him. I hope today you will meet him if you ...read more

     | 292 views

    Fight the bullies in your life with God’s ability, with God’s authority, and within God’s assignment.

    In his book Fuzzy Memories, Jack Handey tells the story of a bully who demanded his lunch money every day when he was a child. Because Handey was smaller than the bully, he simply gave the bully his money. “Then I decided to fight back,” Handey says. “I started taking karate lessons, but the ...read more

    You're Loved, No Strings Attached! Youth Sermon

     | 588 views

    As Christians, we are deeply loved by God and have nothing to fear or prove. We can find security in knowing that God is always with us and His love sets us free from seeking approval from others. In response to God's love, we purify ourselves by saying no to ungodliness and living uprightly by loving others as Jesus loves us.

    Hey guys! Today, we're gonna learn from John, one of Jesus' best buds. John tells us that we're God's kids, loved big time. That means we don't have to be scared or try to impress anyone. God's love is epic, and it gives us a fresh start if we accept it. God's love is epic, and it gives us a fresh ...read more

    Be ready! It's a repeated theme in Scripture. But what should I do to get ready for heaven?

    (I opened by singing 2 verses of an old hymn "There's A Great Day Coming") “There’s a great day coming, a great day coming. There’s a great day coming by and by. When the saints and the sinners will be parted right and left, Are you ready for that day to come?” CHORUS: Are you ready? ...read more

    We don’t have to do anything to earn God’s love. God loves us because we belong to Him. This was the final sermon in a series called That’s Outrageous.

    Outrageous Love Romans 5: 1-8 We are living in a society that rewards success and punishes failure. From a very early age we are taught and conditioned to make good grades, to do well, to succeed, and to achieve. ---Those who do well are often the recipients of rewards, opportunities and ...read more

    Jesus was in the world and the world knew Him not.

    Introduction: The now infamous Lance Armstrong once said, “A boo is a lot louder than a cheer.” And he hit the nail on the head, because no one wants to be rejected.

    How should we deal with or respond to rejection? It’s a very good question especially when it comes to the Church.

    The now infamous Lance Armstrong once said, “A boo is a lot louder than a cheer.” And he actually hit the nail on the head, because no one wants to be rejected.

    Thanks to the Sermont Central Contributor for the "G.I.F.T." format. God’s gift of faith is a life altering gift.

    God’s Gift is Imputed I. When you open your gifts on Christmas morning, remember the word “Imputed.” II. Think of the word “Imputed” as meaning, A.
