  • I Am

    Contributed by Ben Peak on Jan 3, 2008
    based on 11 ratings

    What does God mean when He calls Himself, “I AM?”

    I don’t know if you’ve heard about the time that President Bush and Vice-President Cheney were walking through an airport when they saw someone who looked just like Moses. President Bush walked up to him and said, “Excuse me, sir, but are you Moses?” The man didn’t respond, just stared off into ...read more

  • Attractive Christianity

    Contributed by Ben Peak on Jan 3, 2008
    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,959 views

    What will it take to reverse some of the damage we have done to ourselves and the church’s image? I believe it will take Christians really living like Christians.

    You know, it’s startling today to realize exactly how people look at Christianity. To much of the world Christians are just a nuisance. We are just a bunch of crazy fanatics who try to impose innumerable rules upon everyone else. We’re just a bunch of do-gooders who always find ways to condemn ...read more

  • Our Great High Priest

    Contributed by Ben Peak on Jan 3, 2008

    Jesus Christ has become our eternal High Priest. And I think there are three things that these verses tell us about our High Priest that should come as an encouragement to us.

    From the time of the fall of Adam man has needed a mediator… someone who would span the gap that now separated him from God. Man is sinful. God is holy. And because of His holiness God will have no fellowship or connection with sin. Before the fall God and man had close fellowship with each ...read more

  • I Am The Light

    Jesus calls Himself the light of the world. And I think we can simply study what effect physical light has on the areas that it touches and gain some spiritual lessons from that.

    If you remember, last Sunday morning I spoke to you about how God described Himself as the I AM and what all that means to us today. It’s good to know that God is, that He does not change, and that He can be everything we need Him to be. Well, tonight I want to begin a series that will span over ...read more

  • The Good Shepherd

    I want us to take some time to gaze upon this shepherd of ours, and I want to talk with you for a little while about some of the traits that He has.

    Have you ever heard or participated in a discussion about which animal humans are most like? Scientists have often tried to liken us with other animals. Lab tests for different medicines and immunizations are performed on rats and mice since their bodily functions are similar to humans. We’ve ...read more

  • I Am The Door

    Contributed by Ben Peak on Jan 3, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,027 views

    Jesus said, “I am the Door.” What does He mean when He calls Himself the Door?

    Who is Jesus? There are a lot of ways for us to try and answer that question. We can study the theology books for the great thinkers’ ideas of who He is. We can work out our own ideas within our own minds. Ore we can look to the One who knows Him like nobody else does… Himself. Throughout the ...read more

  • Be Ye Holy

    based on 11 ratings
     | 14,839 views

    As Wesleyans, also believe that there is a second work of grace. This second work is called entire sanctification.

    This morning I want to share with you something that is one of the fundamental messages of the Wesleyan doctrine. Really, it is what sets us apart from many other churches and types of theology. It’s one of the distinguishing tenets, if not the distinguishing tenet, of our heritage. I’m talking ...read more

  • I Am The Bread Of Life

    Contributed by Ben Peak on Jan 3, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,593 views

    What does Christ mean when He calls Himself the Bread of Life?

    For the last few weeks we have sort of gotten off course in our Sunday evening services, but tonight I want us to again look to the book of John. We have been asking the question, “Who is Jesus?” It’s a question that can be answered from several different approaches. We can study the attributes ...read more

  • Rekindling The Passion

    Contributed by Ben Peak on Jan 3, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,639 views

    In these verses we see a group of people who have come out from the spiritual honeymoon period. And there are three things that Jesus says to these church members at Ephesus that I believe He wants to say to us.

    You know, for every sort of relationship there is a honeymoon period, a time when everything is lovey-dovey and wonderful. All sorts of differences are overlooked during this time. All words are spoken kindly. Every consideration is given to the other party. It’s just a nice and peachy time. ...read more

  • I Am The Vine

    Contributed by Ben Peak on Jan 3, 2008
    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,359 views

    So we have Jesus as the Vine, God the Father as the Vinedresser, and us as the branches. Having made those distinctions, let me share with you the lessons I think we can learn from this passage.

    A while back we began a study of the times throughout the Gospel of John where Jesus said, “I am…” I am the Light of the world. I am the Door. I am the Good Shepherd. I am the Bread of Life. Tonight I want us to close out this series by looking at another one of these statements that Jesus ...read more

  • Learning Lessons From A Leper

    Contributed by Ben Peak on Jan 3, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,624 views

    Who would have thought that we could learn a lesson from a leper? And who would have thought that the lesson we would learn from him would be in the area of gratitude? But somehow the leper in this story today teaches us three important lessons about th

    Thanksgiving is a wonderful time of the year. Families gather together for what may be the one time they do so that year. School lets out for a few days. You get a paid day off of work. The fall is here in full force. It’s a great day to sit and watch some football or get out and play some. ...read more

  • Emmanuel

    Contributed by Ben Peak on Jan 3, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,532 views

    What really is it about God becoming man that is so momentous for you and me today? Let me share with you three ways in which I think that the coming of Emmanuel bears such great connotations for you and me today.

    Over the past several months I have come to realize a great appreciation for the miracle of birth. As Cora was going through her time of pregnancy I don’t know how many times the amazement hit me that she actually was carrying a human being inside of her. That was no potbelly. It was no unusual ...read more

  • Why Shepherds?

    Contributed by Ben Peak on Jan 3, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 21,660 views

    Why did God choose to let shepherds be the first to hear the news of the Messiah?

    Over the past few weeks we have been taking a new look at some of the figures of the Christmas story. We’ve taken some time to study the stories within the story. We’ve looked at the story of Mary, the teenaged girl that God chose to be the mother of His Son. Last week we discussed the story of ...read more

    A message of God’s love at Christmas.

    Christmas is almost here. In exactly one week the day we’ve all been waiting for will have come. We’ve been singing and listening to carols as we have been awaiting its arrival. We’ve been making all sorts of plans for travel or parties or programs as we prepare for that day. And it’s so close ...read more

  • Making This The Best Year Ever

    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,340 views

    A challenge to make this year the greatest we’ve seen as a church.

    I want to offer my commendations to each of you, this morning. Every single one of you deserves a huge congratulation because, as of this moment, you have not missed one church service all year long. That’s something to be proud of. And I am proud of you. Granted it’s still the first day of ...read more
