    Life In The Spirit Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jun 26, 2002
    based on 234 ratings
     | 13,254 views

    If we wonder whether we’re truly followers of Christ then this is one way God helps us: are our minds set on the things of God, is our failure to obey, something we struggle with, do we relate to God as our father, rather than someone distant and remote?

    I keep coming across people who are struggling with whether their faith is real. People whose Christian experience is something like what Paul describes at the end of Romans 7. They struggle to believe that they could be truly God’s children when their life is so full of sin. If you’re one of those ...read more

    Too often we generalize our repentance without getting specific. Failure to pinpoint areas where we need to change our mind, attitudes and actions on often allows us to go along without experiencing spiritual change. Let us consider twelve areas where we

    Lord Teach Us To Pray - Part Two

    Contributed by J. Yeargin on Nov 13, 2006
     | 2,385 views

    David’s life was filled with blessings and failures, good times and not so good times. He learned early on in his life how to cry out for God’s mercy when he was lost and lonely, rejected and afflicted. God had taught David to pray and how to pray. We

    LORD, TEACH US TO PRAY Part Two Last week we looked at a couple of the stories of David and we found that he is most known for what is recorded in Acts 13:22 - David became the “a man after My (God’s) own heart, who will do all My (God’s) will.” We also noted that David’s life was not a ...read more

    Noah gets drunk and gets naked in his tent. He behaves badly. He fails in terms of his witness to his family. He fails God in that he’s way out of control. BUT IT IS HAM’S DISRESPECT, NOT NOAH’S FAILURES THAT FEATURE IN THIS STORY.

    Each of us has a withered hand and can't get a grip on something in life. It could be a past hurt, moral failure, financial difficulty, fear of the future, physical problem, or feeling of inferiority. We need to let Jesus expose it and heal us mentally, spiritually, emotionally, and physically.

    WHEN YOU’VE LOST YOU’RE GRIP Mark 3:1-5 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A Mom discussed peer pressure and cigarettes with her 12-year-old daughter. Having struggled for years to quit, she described how she had started smoking to "be cool." As she outlined the arguments kids might make to ...read more

    Fear is something that each of us faces at different times in our lives. Sometimes, it’s fear of the unknown, fear of failure, fear of danger, or fear of losing control. But God, in His love and wisdom, has given us promises that provide comfort, peace, and strength when fear strikes.

    Trusting God When Fear Strikes Introduction: Today, we will consider two powerful verses of Scripture that speak to the core of our human experience—fear and trust. Fear is something that each of us faces at different times in our lives. Sometimes, it’s fear of the unknown, fear of failure, fear ...read more

    Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Dec 17, 2024
     | 727 views

    Mary and Elizabeth had a surprise from God. Both became expectant mothers. It was part of God's ultimate plan to reclaim His creation from the grasp of Satan, after the failure in Eden. At Bethlehem God launched a mighty counteroffensive that started with a tiny baby boy named Jesus.

    In Jesus Holy Name December 22, 2024 Text: Luke 1:35-37 Redeemer “Surprises From God, Remove the Impossible” Luke chapter 1 tells us the story of two expectant mothers, Elizabeth and Mary. Both of their pregnancies were a surprise. Both are ...read more

    What To Do When Someone's Mad At You Series

    Contributed by Brian Bill on Nov 19, 2006
    based on 18 ratings
     | 25,330 views

    God would rather have a broken life than a beautiful lamb. He would rather have a surrendered man or a woman than scads of money. He would rather have us leave and make peace than lift our hands in praise when we’re in conflict with someone.

    What to Do When Someone’s Mad at You Matthew 5:23-24 Rev.

    Kaiser Wilhelm II entered Jerusalem through the Jaffa gate mounted on a beautiful white horse. Nearly 2000 years before, Jesus had entered Jerusalem through the Eastern gate mounted upon a humble donkey. Two dignitaries entered the same city in two different ways. Why the differences?

    OPEN: The last emperor of Germany was Kaiser Wilhelm II and, in 1898 he decided to make a pilgrimage to Jerusalem. At the time, the once great Jerusalem was in serious need of attention. So 6 months before the Kaiser’s scheduled arrival, the Sultan replaced the mayor of Jerusalem with a more ...read more

    "o Come, O Come, Emmanuel" Series

     | 11,033 views

    I have always wanted to so an Advent series based on traditional Christmas carols/hymns. We've gotten so used to them that I think we miss the depth of the theology contained within in them. One of the most ancient is the beautiful hymn that contains the ancient names of Jesus.

    I love the way that Pastor and author Robert J. Morgan describes hymns: “Hymns help us praise God. They’re shafts of brilliant sunlight through the clouds. They provide an almost mystical connection with the endless anthems of praise raising at this very moment before the heavenly throne. They ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 331 views

    Worry has become so normal that many assume it is simply part of being human. But Jesus calls His disciples to something radically different. He calls us to trust. He calls us to open our eyes to something as simple, as beautiful, and as fragile as a flower — and learn from it the theology of trust.

    Go! And Trust The God Who Clothes The Lilies - Luke 12:27 INTRODUCTION — “A WORLD DROWNING IN WORRY” We are living in an age where anxiety has become the background noise of everyday life.

    Have you ever tried to put together a jigsaw puzzle without the picture on the box? That’s what life often feels like. We see pieces, scattered moments, events, and emotions—some bright and beautiful, others dark and painful—and we wonder how they fit together.

    Go! And Trust What You Cannot Yet See Opening Prayer: Heavenly Father, We thank You that we are not left to wander in darkness, for You have given us Your Word, Your Spirit, and Your Son, Jesus Christ. Today, help us to see—not just with physical eyes, but with eyes of faith. Teach us to trust in ...read more
