    Don't Excuse Yourself From God's Banquet Of Salvation

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Nov 19, 2003
    based on 68 ratings
     | 8,397 views

    In the parable of the great banquet Jesus gives us a graphic warning about excusing ourselves from God’s feast of salvation in time and in eternity.

    “Are you looking for just the right excuse for a certain situation? Ask your pastor he has heard them all.” Although more of joke than advice there is some truth to it. Pastors do hear a lot of excuses. But I think it would be more correct to say that only God has truly heard all the excuses ...read more

    INTRO.- ILL.- Jay Leno, popular host of The Tonight Show, may be one of America’s funniest comedians, but he is also a serious car enthusiast.

    Not a sermon, but a farewell statement given to the congregation at Sunrise Presbyterian Church

    I have been reflecting on what we have accomplished at Sunrise. When I came here, Sunrise was a hurting and very conflicted church. But it was clear that this was not your nature. Your nature was to be "the church where love lights the way." I remember my first Session meeting -- elders yelling ...read more

    How Jesus Dealt With Rejection

    Contributed by Spencer Miller on Mar 10, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,095 views

    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. It can make you come to the conclusion Oprah Winfrey came to when she said, “I don’t want anyone who doesn’t want me” because no one ...read more

    How many of you wear glasses? I’ve worn mine since I was seven years old. I was able to wear contact lenses for about 20 years but after about 40 they don’t work so well.
