    Dinner For 5,000 Is Served

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Jan 15, 2009
    based on 30 ratings
     | 5,083 views

    A sermon about the feeding of the 5,000, using two small fish and five small loaves. How this was a lesson that was followed up by a test on the lake that evening. And how we can use that to develop our own faith.

    One day in the middle of the woods, a hawk, a lion, and a skunk were arguing about which one was the most powerful. The hawk said it was because he could fly down and catch his dinner so quickly they could not get away. The lion said he could run the fastest and had the bigger teeth to eat ...read more

    Are You Still Being Saved Today?

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Jan 19, 2009
    based on 20 ratings
     | 4,101 views

    A message of how our salvation is not something relegated to the past; something that happened to us "once", but is actively being worked on in the present.

    We Christians talk a lot about our being saved, don’t we? But have you ever noticed that it always seems to be in the past tense? ‘Have you been saved?’ ‘When were you saved?’ I think the more appropriate, and perhaps the most accurate way of asking about one’s salvation would be, ‘Are you ...read more

    No matter which version of the Bible you open, you will see very similar wording, in GENESIS 1:1. ‘In the beginning, God created ....’ If you believe these first five words, you have the basics of a belief that will enable you to believe in the entire Bible as the true Word of God.

    Overview On Genesis 12: Abram's Availability

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Jan 31, 2009
    based on 20 ratings
     | 7,347 views

    This message hi-lites Abram’s willingness to be available for God, as shown in Genesis 12. Because he made himself available to God, God blessed Abram. And God will bless us today if we make ourselves available to Him, too.

    Last Thursday night, we learned how man fell away from God when we chose to partake of the forbidden fruit, and how that has caused mankind to be in sin ever since. God gave Adam and Eve a set of rules to live by, but they decided to do what they wanted to do instead of what God wanted them to do. ...read more

    based on 18 ratings
     | 17,061 views

    A 5-point sermon dealing with different types of love, including the love God has for us and the love we are to have for His church.

    As humans, our emotions can vary widely throughout a whole range of subjects. And while this is certainly true, since Valentines day was yesterday, I want to focus on love. We are capable of feelings several types of love, too, and each type has its own focus of intensity. There is an old ...read more

    based on 37 ratings
     | 19,300 views

    A sermon of thanksgiving. Communion meditation will be placed at www.sermonlist.com/communion.html

    Have you ever thought about how most of us offer our thanks when something good is done to, or for, us? Most Americans say a quick ‘thank you’ and then we instantly go on to other things. Rarely do we ever spend any real or quality time thanking someone for what they have done. When the ...read more

    Multiply Your Blessings

    Contributed by Diana Ball on Dec 1, 2008
    based on 35 ratings
     | 17,129 views

    Ephesians 1:3 says we have already been given every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms, yet we do not seem to have them. Could it be because we do not know how to reach out and take them?

    JOHN 10:10 "The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full." The Good News Bible translates that statement of Jesus as, "I have come in order that you might have life ---- life in all its fullness." That’s what our faith ...read more

    As we go into the time of Christmas, we revert our attention back to Jesus - the Good News. Full text and communion message at: www.sermonlist.com/2008.html

    For the last year, the only news we hear has been bad, hasn’t it? During the presidential campaign, all we heard was negative campaigning, and how our economy is failing. Everywhere you turn, there seems to be nothing but bad news. Have you ever noticed that the only thing this old world can ...read more

    God Pursued Us

    Contributed by Diana Ball on Dec 17, 2008
    based on 25 ratings
     | 10,485 views

    A message of how a loving God made Himself smaller for us, so that we could grow larger in Him through Jesus Christ.

    I heard the story once of a great Cherokee wood carver. He took logs and sat them on a stump outside his back door and sat in front of that log sometimes for hours just staring at it. Finally, he would pick up his carving tools and start carving the most beautiful of things out of the wood. He ...read more

    A Christmas sermon about how the birth of Jesus would have affected Mary.

    On June 1, 1965, a boat set sail from Falmouth, Massachusetts. The name of the boat was Tinkerbelle. If it completed the dangerous journey, it would be the smallest boat ever to cross the Atlantic. It was less than 14’ long. And its pilot was Robert Manry. And he was afraid. He was afraid, ...read more

    Happy New Year - Jacob's Way

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Dec 24, 2008
    based on 20 ratings
     | 9,492 views

    Using the story of Jacob and Esau, we show that the only way to have a better life (or in this case a better New Year) is by facing God to find out who you really are in Him! And then turning your trust over to Him.

    Someone once describe insanity as doing something the exact same way over and over again, but each time expecting to get a totally different result. Most people use that exact same method when it comes to wanting a better life; they continually live in the hope of things getting better, but ...read more

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Jan 1, 2009
    based on 34 ratings
     | 27,881 views

    A message reminding the congregation of what the definition and purpose of true worship is; and what the benefits are to those who keep the many forms of worship in the center of their hearts and focus.

    Today’s message title is, "Here I Am To Worship." I love that song! In these short lyrics, we find the true heart of worship. ‘Here I am to worship; Here I am to bow down; Here I am to say that You’re my God!’ The first thing I want you to do this morning is lift both your feet off the ...read more

     | 8,946 views

    An Easter teaching for seekers and those who may have questions about what happened on that Sunday when Jesus arose. http://www.sermonlist.com/2008.html

    Every Easter Sunday, we find people sitting in churches that have no real understanding of just what went on at Easter, or why it happened. They come to church because they have a yearning to hear the story of Christ, but they leave with just as many questions as they had before they came in. ...read more

    There was a Wendy’s commercial somewhere back around 1970. In that commercial, this little old lady goes into one of the competitors hamburger joints and gets a hamburger. When they give it to her, it has two big buns and a little tiny piece of hamburger. She looks at the man and with a very ...read more
