    A sermon about the offerings God and Satan have for each of us.

    "LET’S MAKE A DEAL!" Who among you remembers the ‘LET’S MAKE A DEAL’ TV show? It was one of the most popular games shows of its day. Contestants were given some really good money or prizes, but along with each gift came a chance to gamble; gamble on turning that gift into much more, or losing ...read more

    based on 95 ratings
     | 14,259 views

    A 4-point sermon detailing how God loves us by doing everything from blessing us to rescuing us.

    When I was a kid, I enjoyed watching westerns on TV. It seemed that no matter how much trouble the hero got into, he would always be saved by the Cavalry. Today, as an adult, life sure seems to be full of trouble, too. It seems that no matter what we do, we have trouble of some kind. If it’s not ...read more

     | 9,454 views

    Anybody can count the number of seeds in an apple, but only God knows how many apples are in each seed.

    Have you ever noticed that people need to be around other people? Yet, all too often, what do we do? We tend to build walls around ourselves and keep other people out. We draw lines between us and concentrate more on our differences than our similarities. A man was a witness to another man ...read more

  • 23rd Psalm - Explained

    based on 119 ratings
     | 34,046 views

    Sermon referencing David & PSALM 23 to show where our strength, contentment, and security come from.

    We convince ourselves that life will be better after we get to be an adult, or after we are married, have a good job, start a family, etc. Then we get frustrated that the kids aren’t old enough to mind, or be left alone, or old enough to play sports yet. We believe we’ll be more content when they ...read more

  • A Marriage Ceremony

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Nov 8, 2005
    based on 67 ratings
     | 8,040 views

    A shorter, but Christ-centered, wedding ceremony that I perform for most couples I unite in marriage.

    NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR: Many ministers prefer to take the opportunity of performing a wedding, and give a full blown sermon. I personally feel that is uncalled for in this situation. I believe that this is the bride and groom’s day, not the preacher’s - so with that in mind, I keep it simple and ...read more

    based on 75 ratings
     | 19,906 views

    What if God treated us the way we treat Him? Inspired by Melvin Newland.

    One of the most beautiful Psalms of thanksgiving is the 100th PSALM. Listen to the words as I read it. ‘Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. Worship the Lord with gladness; come before Him with joyful songs. Know the Lord is god. It is He who made us, and we are His; we are His people, ...read more

    based on 72 ratings
     | 10,770 views

    A 2-step formula to help us realize an attitude of gratitude.

    The Pilgrims didn’t have too much of anything, did they? They had no transportation, they had no indoor plumbing, and they didn’t even have nice homes. Yet they saw reasons to give thanks to God for the many blessings they did have. What were some of the blessings He gave to the Pilgrims? ...read more

    A sermon about the blessing of Christ - to go along with our Bethlehem Candle Service- 2nd week of Advent.

    Every year in Mesa, Arizona, the Mormon Temple puts on their Christmas display. It is a fantastic sight to see! There must be millions of lights, and the sight of those displays is truly awesome. If you want to go see them, you will spend at least a half hour looking for a place to park, and ...read more

  • The King Herod Within Us

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Dec 1, 2005
    based on 88 ratings
     | 21,198 views

    A sermon that shows all of us have a little King Herod in us, but Christ brings a sword to put that nature to death so a new nature can rise up.

    To many of us, we are the center of our own universe, aren’t we? To many of us, we are the only one who counts. And, too many of us think that God is our co-pilot. Let me start by saying that if God is your co-pilot, you had better change places with Him as quickly as you can. In MATTHEW ...read more

  • For The Love Of Christ

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Dec 7, 2005
    based on 134 ratings
     | 7,648 views

    A sermon that reminds us to keep our focus on the destination: The eternal life in worshiping the Lord in Heaven.

    We have all heard that Jesus is coming back. That should be the best news we will ever hear, but for many Christians, it is just a story. A story from a book that is more like fantasy than reality. A story they hear, but do not really believe. And because they do not believe it, they have missed ...read more

    A sermon explaining who the Holy Spirit is and why we need to have a personal relationship with Him, also.

    Pastor Bruce Ball CrossWinds Bible Church Sometimes I try and picture Jesus walking on the same earth that I am walking on. In historical terms, He was here just a few short years ago. I can understand that by using intelligence, but when I try to use my heart to actually understand, I just can’t ...read more

    1st sermon in the EXODUS series. (Audio at www.sermonlist.com/2007.html)

    Last Sunday, as we left the book of GENESIS, we talked about the faith of Joseph. How he kept focused on the Lord and the dreams he received, even in the face of great hardship. And, looking back, we can see how God blessed Joseph, by letting him become the second most powerful man in the world – ...read more
