    When Prayer Goes Unanswered Series

    Contributed by Greg Hanson on Feb 19, 2007
    based on 7 ratings
     | 9,270 views

    Why doesn’t God answer all our prayers? And when he doesn’t, what should our response be? Part 4 of a series inspired by Philip Yancey’s book "Disappointment with God."

    Back when I was a student at Bethany Bible College in Sussex, NB, I lived in one of the dormitories. They’ve since renovated the dorm, but when I was there we had two pay phones in the dorm… one on the second floor, and one on the third. The one on the third floor worked fine, but the one on the ...read more

    To be or not to be, that is the question— Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, And by opposing, end them. To die: to sleep; Hamlet--Act 3, Scene 1 The simpl

    When the Pharisees approach John the Baptist demanding to know his credentials John never responds with who he is, but who he knows and who he represents. Learn the value of being an agent for Jesus Christ.

    How do you want people to think of you? I guess it depends on the situation-and your age. When I was younger I wanted to be cool, and I was so not. Today I could be thought of in many roles: husband, son, father, pastor, writer, or musician. When I’m with other pastors I could want to be thought of ...read more

    The Annunciation

    Sermon discusses Mary’s willingess to become God’s handmaiden. Three lessons are also examined: We are never alone, We are part of a greater plan, and Being faithful leads to greater opportunites to serve God.

    The Annunciation Introduction The other day I was scanning a popular men’s magazine and came across a quiz that tested, “How Daring Are You?” At first, I was certain that I’d score pretty well because I consider myself an innovator and risk taker. For example, I tried Cherry Coke ...read more

    God has called us to take His message to the world, will we do it or not? It is your decision. As It says in Joshua 1:6&7,9 and 18 “Be strong and courageous!” Let us Seize the day

    Carpe Diem! Seize the Day Part 2 Last week we talked about seizing the day and one way to do that and this week we will continue with that thought. When was the last time you woke up and said “It’s time to get up out of bed, God wants to change the world through my life”? God does want to change ...read more

    King Jesus

    based on 6 ratings
     | 10,523 views

    Jesus has promised to save us, but only when we receive Him as the kind of King He really is, not on our terms, but on His. He won’t be our Savior without being our Lord.

    1. Jesus prophesied as King (19:28-36) a. OT prophesy b. Promised to save you 2. Jesus praised as King (19:37) a. Praised for mighty works b. Praised for what He can do for you (felt needs, false gospel) 3. Jesus misunderstood as King (19:38) a. Thought to be a political king b. Thought ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,255 views

    When we need healing in our bodies, there is a time that comes which warrents us being determined to get ahold of God for healing. Sometimes we just simply must push through the crowd and touch Jesus!

    TEXT: Luke 8:40-48 And as Jesus returned, the multitude welcomed Him, for they had all been waiting for Him. [41] And behold, there came a man named Jairus, and he was an official of the synagogue; and he fell at Jesus’ feet, and began to entreat Him to come to his house; [42] for he had an only ...read more

    Who Is Your Epaphras?

    Contributed by Johnny Knight on Aug 11, 2007
    based on 10 ratings
     | 8,142 views

    I have often said the greatest gift God has given to us (second only to Jesus) is the Church. There are so many benefits to being not only a part of the body of Christ on the earth, but a part of a local body of believers.

    WHO IS YOUR EPAPHRAS? Text: Colossians 4:12 “Epaphras, who is one of you, says ‘hello’. What a trooper he has been! He’s been tireless in his prayers for you, praying that you’ll stand firm, mature and confident in everything God wants you to do. I’ve watched him closely and can assure you that he ...read more

    Restore Us, O Lord God

    Contributed by Russell Brownworth on Dec 5, 2005
    based on 15 ratings
     | 21,962 views

    This text is a prayer of desperation! It is the prayer of people who were once used to having God’s presence and God’s power – that power being long absent and sorely missed. It is the prayer of one out of touch with God.

    Give ear, O Shepherd of Israel, you who lead Joseph like a flock! You who are enthroned upon the cherubim, shine forth before Ephraim and Benjamin and Manasseh. Stir up your might, and come to save us! Restore us, O God; let your face shine, that we may be saved. O LORD God of hosts, ...read more

    Jesus warns his disciples and to "keep watch" for the day and hour of his return is a secret to all except the Father. I begin with a "vest button" principle and have an illustration of Katrina... all emphasising the principle of "preparedness" and being

    I grew up thinking that Jesus must be emabarassed with this thing called church. The hypocrisy and fakiness led me to want to see something different. This sermon is my personal understanding of what i wanted the church to be.

    Loving the Church powerpoint available at coolguybri@verizon.net There is a word that brings a lot of emotion when used.

    The Greatest Giver Of All Series

    based on 57 ratings
     | 8,040 views

    You can’t outgive God. He’s way ahead of everyone but he’s wanting us to share in his likeness and experience the fullness of grace. Part of that comes through being a giver like him.

    Chapters 8-9 center on the subject of the grace of giving. A story was circulated some time ago about Arnold Palmer’s visit with a certain king. This king was impressed with Arnold Palmers golf record and as they talked the king wanted to give Mr. Palmer a gift. He tried to refuse at first, ...read more

    Just like we enjoy watching our vegetable garden blossoming and growing -- our Heavenly Father, just loves watching His kids grow up into exactly what He has ordained for them to be.

    While carefully inspecting and counting the tiny little peppers growing from my sole jalapeno pepper plant, I remembered Grandma’s words, I love watching things grow. She planted the strangest things, unlike regular vegetable gardens. Grandma grew cotton and tobacco and just about anything! I ...read more

    based on 61 ratings
     | 40,818 views

    Responsibility means accountability, being trustworthy and diligent. It also means accepting duties of roles. Never before has there been a greater need in the church for Christian’s to step up and accept their responsibility as part of the Body of Christ

    CHRISTIAN RESPONSIBILITY Text: Hebrews 6:9-12 Introduction: Responsibility is a sense of duty and obligation to self and other. Responsibility means accountability, being trustworthy and diligent. It also means accepting duties of roles. Never before has there been a greater need in the church for ...read more

    No one likes being called a "fool." Yet, the Bible says a man who says there is no God, well, get ready to change your name. Let’s examine more what the Bible says about the matter!

    Introduction How many times have you heard someone say, "She’d be a fool to take him back." or "You’re a bigger fool than I thought you were." or "Boy was I a fool to believe that." Regardless of it’s use, it leaves a strong taste in all of our mouths and rightly so! It’s not the worst but it’s ...read more
