  • The Devil Series

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Aug 6, 2019
     | 6,057 views

    The devil knows a lot of cheap tricks to pull us down. If you are wise to those tricks you can stand strong against him.

    In my freshman year of high school I went out for tennis. I wasn’t very good. The coach never took me to even one away meet because most everybody was better than I was. But I had a lot of fun. It was great being outside with my friends in the springtime. And tennis wasn’t near as much work ...read more

  • He Raised Us Up With Him

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Aug 6, 2019
     | 2,814 views

    The resurrection of Jesus calls us to life on a new dimension.

    Imagine with me a young boy spending the summer on his grandfather’s farm. He has chores to do, but as soon as they are done he loves to roam in the woods and hills nearby. He spots an eagle soaring in the sky, follows it to its nest on the edge of a cliff and sees its mate sitting on the nest. ...read more

  • Saved By Grace, Through Faith, For Good Works

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Aug 8, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,136 views

    In 3 short verses Paul gives an overview of the order of salvation, the path to mature discipleship.

    It can feel overwhelming to think about building a relationship with God. For God, everything ought to be right, every part of your life. You ought to pray all the time. You ought to be very careful with every word you speak. You ought to be helping all sorts of people every day. Who can do it ...read more

  • The Scandal Of God's Grace

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Aug 8, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,205 views

    We all speak lightly of God's grace, but a proper understanding should revolutionize our lives.

    Most of you will recognize the name, John Wesley, the founder of the Methodist movement. He was a priest in the Church of England in the 1700’s who preached up and down the British Isles and organized people into small groups everywhere he could with a format that brought thousands of people into ...read more

  • Breaking Down The Walls

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Aug 8, 2019
     | 6,953 views

    Just as the Apostle Paul had to deal with separations between Jewish and Gentile Christians in his day, we need to deal with separations between white and black churches (and many other ethnicities as well) today.

    (This sermon was preached in 1997 and needs updated examples) There was once a subway car, almost empty, except for a Chinese man and a Jewish man, who sat in their seats, silently, holding their newspapers high as they read. Suddenly the Jewish man stood up, rolled up his newspaper, walked over ...read more

  • Are You Ready For Christmas?

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Apr 22, 2020
     | 3,078 views

    John the Baptist told people to make preparations to meet Jesus that were very different from our preparations for Christmas.

    I hope we are all making some progress towards being ready for Christmas. We know the drill, decorations, shopping, Christmas cards, wrapping presents, cooking, and so on. Today we meet John the Baptist, who gives us a very different list of things we need to do to be ready to ...read more

  • John The Baptist: Challenge For A Deeper Life

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Apr 22, 2020
     | 3,274 views

    John the Baptist didn't follow in his father's footsteps as a priest in the temple. He challenged people to break out of normality and live radically new lives.

    (John, entering from the back, in costume, down the center aisle.) Wake up, everybody! God’s Messiah is coming! That’s really good news! Get ready! Things have got to change around here! God’s blessings are coming for you! But you have to be ready! Clean it up, folks! (John standing in ...read more

  • Point Them To Jesus

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Apr 22, 2020
     | 2,540 views

    Churches easily get struck in a rut and decline. John the Baptist serves as a model for vital ministry: focus on Jesus above all else.

    Last week we started looking at the ministry of John the Baptist. He was a prophet. He cared for the spiritual health of his nation with all of his heart. He saw clearly what needed to be done and he spoke out what people needed to hear, boldly, without any sugar coating. His boldness was what ...read more

  • It' Not About Us

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Apr 22, 2020
     | 2,972 views

    We love our church traditions and are proud of the good things we do. But our calling is to honor Jesus above ourselves and change any tradition to better point people to Jesus, like John the Baptist.

    One of the fun parts of the Christmas season is getting letters from old friends and learning how their kids are turning out. Erik, whom I confirmed years ago, is in the Air Force now. Annie is a commercial artist. Allen, who used to get bullied, is a police officer now. Tim is married, with ...read more

  • A Family Like Ours

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Apr 22, 2020
     | 2,863 views

    We may be tempted to skip over the account of Jesus' ancestry, but it is an important part of the good news of Jesus.

    If you had the job of writing up the story of the life of Jesus, one of the decisions you would make would be what to do with the opening paragraph. You know how important the opening is. You want something to grab people’s attention and pull them into reading the whole thing. What would you ...read more

  • Please Use The Servant Entrance

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Mar 23, 2020
     | 2,538 views

    We naturally want to be in control of our lives and focus on taking care of ourselves first. But Jesus set the example of being a servant.

    If you were to ask me what my favorite TV show is right now, I think I would have to answer “West Wing.” I’m really enjoying the opportunity to see something of the inner workings of the white house and how policies come together. Today’s text, the story of the birth of Jesus, leaves me thinking ...read more

  • A Tale Of Two Kings

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Mar 24, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,726 views

    There would have appeared to be no contest in a contest between the great King Herod and the little baby Jesus. But Jesus' power of humility and holiness and obedience to God, displayed at Christmas was greater then and continues today.

    Our text for this morning is Luke 2:1-7, the story of the birth of our Lord, Jesus Christ. You’ve probably heard it many, many times before. Can there be anything new in it, any way that this ancient text relates to our world today? Let’s see. I encourage you to open your Bible to it as Linda ...read more

  • The Journey From Bethlehem To Nazareth

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Mar 24, 2020
     | 2,441 views

    We have our dreams for a perfect Christmas, but don't feel God has failed you if your dreams aren't met. Imagine how Mary's dreams for having a perfect birth for her baby were disrupted.

    If we made a list of what it would take to make a perfect Christmas, it would be quite a list. Of course all the family needs to be together, all at the same time. Just that can be really complicated. For us, as near as we can tell, we’ll have one son coming in on the afternoon of the 25th and ...read more

  • Not Such A Silent Night

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Mar 24, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,250 views

    If your Christmas isn't coming together the way you would like, remember that our God is a God for the rough times, too. Look what Mary went through on the first Christmas.

    If a good fairy appeared and said you could make a list to put together your perfect Christmas, what would you put on your list? Every year around Christmas time we get several chances to watch various versions of Charles Dickens’ classic story about Ebenezer Scrooge and the various spirits of ...read more

  • Shepherds?

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Mar 24, 2020
     | 4,030 views

    It was lowly shepherds who got the most impressive announcement about the birth of the Messiah. That tells us a lot about the God we serve.

    I think the presence of the shepherds has to be one of my favorite parts of the Christmas story. They don’t say much. They don’t do much. But it sure was important to God that they be there for the birth of Jesus. And that says a lot. When the time came to tell Zechariah about the birth of ...read more
