     | 7,519 views

    1. Have you ever considered what are some of the essential characteristics of a Godly teacher? Too many teachers are interested in teaching others before they educate themselves.

    1. Have you ever considered what are some of the essential characteristics of a Godly teacher? Too many teachers are interested in teaching others before they educate themselves. Paul writes, "You who teach others, do you not teach yourself?" Failure of teachers to grow in Christ remains the ...read more

    We are constantly looking for a better way to do things. Let us think back to a time before Christ and how much better off we are now

    Hebrews 1:1-4 A BETTER WAY Introduction 1. In life we are always trying to find a better way to do something. This unending search has created many inventions.

    Before Abraham was born, I AM. At first blush it seems a strange thing for Jesus to say. Even Jesus’grammar would appear to be up the wall. But is it?

    19-01-03 Stody This year we plan to base the themes of our services in Stody around some of the "I AM" statements of Jesus in the Gospel according to St. John 1. Before Abraham was born, I AM (Jn 8:58) 2. I am the Bread of life (Jn 6:35) 3. I am the ...read more

    based on 169 ratings
     | 10,302 views

    Repentance is an unpopular and misunderstood topic today. Many live in denial of the need to repent. God graciously provides us with opportunities to repent now, before it is too late.

    Sermon for III Lent, Year C Based on Isa. 55:1-9 & Lk. 13:1-9 By Pastor Garth Wehrfritz-Hanson “Timely Repentance” Repentance…. This is one of those familiar Christian words, often spoken by the so-called fanatic, fire-and-brimstone preachers on T.V., who try to literally, “scare the hell out ...read more

    Advent 4 Hebrews 10:5-10 It’s crunch time now. Once church gets out, you will have three and a half days to finish your Christmas shopping. Maybe all of your shopping is done.

    A Pastoral Response To The Bombing In Bali Series

    Contributed by Cameron Horsburgh on Oct 20, 2002
    based on 18 ratings
     | 2,567 views

    The terrorist attack in Bali came a week before I was to preach on the subject of murder, and a National Day of Mourning was declared for that Sunday. God does work in mysterious ways...

    Over the last few weeks God has been showing me how his timing is always perfect. I became more convinced of this when I realised what sermon I had planned to preach today. In view of the events of the last week today’s passage seems to be the most appropriate in the Bible. The bombing in Bali ...read more

    Ahimaaz and Cushi would be running a "race." As Christians, we too, are running a race. There are some "rules of the road" that you need to know before you begin the race.

    Monday Morning Greeting, May 24, 2004 Enough is enough. One thunder storm after another.... oh, well. I am looking forward to a quiet sky with something blue in it. We have had record rainfall... that’s the weather report. A lot of encouraging things at the Church yesterday. We had some ...read more

    Before Christ would go to the Cross, he brought words of comfort to his disciples. He reminded them of his flag, his family, and his faith.

    Title: “The Green Green Grass of Home” Introduction: Someone sent me a picture that is the center frame for this message. It was a photograph of an American soldier in Iraq. He was kneeling in front of his tent, trimming a small piece of grass that he had grown on the dessert floor. ...read more

    Are You Justified By Faith, Or By Works?

    Contributed by Charles Degner on Oct 23, 2006
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,974 views

    This difficult chapter of the Bible is not hard to understand if you ask a simple question. James says we are justified by our works, not just by faith. But justified BEFORE WHOM?

    James 2:1-5, 8-10, 14-26 Pentecost 17B Rev. Charles F. Degner 1My brothers, as believers in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ, don’t show favoritism. 2Suppose a man comes into your meeting wearing a gold ring and fine clothes, and a poor man in shabby clothes also comes in. 3If you show ...read more

    Do you let Satan scare you off before you get your answers to prayer. Are you guided by his roar to make unwise decisions.

    April, 2007 Are You Guided by the Roar of the Lion? I Peter 5:8-11 INTRODUCTION: Satan gets to all of us from time to time through his roar tactics. Christians are not exempt from his search and often they allow him to guide their lives by his powerful roar. Does this sound familiar? Are you ...read more

    It doesn’t take long at this dinner party before the chaos breaks out, this time through the surprising appearance of Mary, pouring a ludicrously expensive jar of perfume.

    We’re turning to John’s Gospel today, which, quite frankly, is a little unnerving for me, as I find John’s Gospel more difficult to deal with than the other three John retells the story of Jesus in such a way that things are rarely as they appear to be. Jesus speaks of being born ’from above’ and ...read more

    Intro: Seven Deadly Sins Series

    Contributed by Stephen Funderburk on Feb 17, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,900 views

    before we do a study on the seven deadly sins, this is an introduction on what sin is, what sin does, and how sin can be taken care of in life

    Intro: you cannot do a serious study on the seven deadly sins without first doing an equally serious study on the meaning of sin. Defined it is the missing of God’s mark or the rejection of God’s commands. But beyond just a simple definition, we must research God’s Word to find out what sin is, ...read more

    Our love for Christ must always come before our work for Christ. Don’t be deluded by our own importance or our great service to God.

    It is good to know that the Lord walks among the churches. • The last verse of chapter 1 tells us the lamp-stands represent the churches. • He is present with us today. No matter how imperfect we are, He is here. • He has a word for every church, each according to their needs. We will look at ...read more
