    Contributed by Wade Allen on May 29, 2007
    based on 56 ratings
     | 79,874 views

    A sermon examining why we observe communion at Central Christian Church.

    A church had an unusual ritual every Sunday morning. Before the church sang the Doxology, they would stand up, everyone turned to the right facing a blank white wall, and they sang. Every Sunday without fail they did this. A newcomer to the church was confused by this and asked, “Why do you do ...read more

    Easter or Missionary message on the Great Commission

    It’s amazing what we hear and don’t hear. Most of us can be justly charged with selective hearing. If mention to you, “I’ve changed cars, my son is starting a new job this week, and Hey, you look great – you’ve must have lost 15 or 20 pounds,” what are you going to remember? Do you ever wonder ...read more

    Jesus Teaches in Parables and Contrasts about the Pharisee and the Publican

    (Luke 18:9-14) "Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican." Through the New Testament Jesus taught in parables. A parable is a story that teaches a truth or moral. And, one of His methods of teaching a parable was to use contrasts. When we have a ...read more

    We live in perilous & prosperous times. We have every modern convenience and an abundance of leisure time. We live amongst cities like Sodom and Gomorrah. We profit by living in the shadow of their wickedness. Are we just Negotiating with God?

    Negotiating with God The title for this mornings message is Negotiating with God. I must admit straight out that I am not a great negotiator. My wife would give me very strict instructions to keep my mouth shut when we went looking for a new car or any other major purchase. Having grown up in ...read more

    Exploring the Jewish roots of Christianity by studying the symbolism of the prayer shawl.

    Today we will be finishing our series with the third and final teaching on the Beauty of the Jewish Prayer Shawl. Though as Christians we do not use the prayer shawl there is much we can learn from it. The shawl (talit) was and is an integral part of the Jewish faith – from which our own faith ...read more

    When You Fail To Trust God

    based on 80 ratings
     | 33,918 views

    This message deals with the consequences of our failure to trust God based on the experience of Jacob. Be Blessed!

    It is my contention that the contents of verses 15-30 conveys the conviction that Jacob had a Serious Problem With Trusting God. The basis for that conclusion is grounded on the fact that here was a man, who with his mother, had conspired, schemed and tricked both his father and brother out of the ...read more

    This sermon takes a look at the David & Goliath narrative with a contemporary eye to the Zorro and Superman movies.

    It’s funny that as we grow up we sometimes develop tastes that we never had as a child. For instance, I never liked salad as a child, but developed a taste for Caesar Salad as an adult. While I still don’t like broccoli, somewhere along the way I developed a deep enjoyment of good coffee. ...read more

    It’s unusual to get an invitation from the White House. I suppose it’s more unusual still to turn that invitation down. But a far greater invitation has, in fact, been offered to you and to me. Matthew 22:1-14 tells us about it. It is an invitation th
