    Contributed by Brian Bill on Mar 23, 2004
    based on 69 ratings
     | 23,469 views

    In the most famous sermon ever preached, Jesus sets forth eight statements that provide the best definition of a disciple ever delineated

    Developing a Disciple’s Attitude In a classic comic, Calvin and Hobbes are talking about the New Year when Calvin says, “I’m getting disillusioned with these new years. They don’t seem very new at all. Each New Year is just like the old year. Here another year has gone by and everything’s still ...read more

  • The Poverty Of Self-Sufficiency Series

    As we look at the first Beatitude this morning, I wonder if those listening to Jesus wished they had a dictionary with them because it must have seemed like He was speaking a different language.

    The Poverty of Self-Sufficiency I’ve received some wonderful green and gold gifts recently. This Packer headband keeps my ears warm, and this cap announces my allegiance for all to see. This Packer Christmas stocking came filled with Snicker bars; and I even received some “Lambeau loafers” as ...read more

  • The Gladness Of Sadness Series

    Contributed by Brian Bill on Mar 24, 2004
    based on 49 ratings
     | 23,485 views

    In one of the most profound, and paradoxical texts in the Bible, Jesus declares in Matthew 5:4: “Blessed are those who mourn; for they will be comforted.”

    The Gladness of Sadness I like to begin my messages with something that makes us laugh when I can (though some of you probably wouldn’t necessarily call it humor). As we approach the second Beatitude however, I realize that frivolity isn’t called for today. In fact, this character quality is no ...read more

  • Meek Does Not Mean Weak Series

     | 10,923 views

    I was struck with how “in control” Jesus was, even when events were transpiring around him and people were doing disturbing things to Him.

    Meek Does Not Mean Weak This past Tuesday Pastor Jeff and I had had the opportunity to view a screening of the film called, “The Passion of the Christ” with about 4,000 other pastors. We should have known we were in for an unforgettable experience when we saw boxes of Kleenex arrayed on tables ...read more

    Look at Matthew 5:6: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be filled.”

    The Happiness of a Hungry Heart As Jesus continues to communicate the blessings that come from beatitude living, let’s summarize what we’ve learned so far. Matthew 5:3: “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” The Almighty applauds us when we see our condition as ...read more

    “Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.”

    The Benefits of Showing Mercy One day, a woman who occasionally walked through the park after work, stopped to have her picture taken by a photographer. She was very excited to get the Polaroid print but when she looked at it, her face dropped. She turned to the photographer and stated rather ...read more

     | 32,137 views

    We can con our coworkers, fool our friends and family, play charades with church members, and even deceive ourselves, but we can’t masquerade before the Lord because He sees right through our masks.

    Pursuing Purity in an Impure World I remember seeing a cartoon that shows a pastor and his wife deep in conversation. The wife says, “Today let’s do something different. Why don’t you be charming at home and grouchy at church?” Ouch. That really doesn’t apply to me…because I’m often grouchy in ...read more

  • Making Peace In The Midst Of Conflict Series

    based on 60 ratings
     | 17,798 views

    “You’re blessed when you can show people how to cooperate instead of compete or fight. That’s when you discover who you really are, and your place in God’s family.”

    Making Peace in the Midst of Conflict Conflict is everywhere, isn’t it? In a classic Winston Churchill comeback, Lady Astor once said, “If you were my husband, I’d put poison in your coffee.” Churchill responded with his cutting wit: “If you were my wife, I’d drink it.” We laugh at this sarcasm, ...read more

    based on 70 ratings
     | 13,645 views

    “Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is y

    The Blessing No One Wants How many of you have seen The Passion of the Christ movie? As the “national conversation” continues, I hope you’re taking advantage of the opportunity to tell people why Jesus died. I’ve had a number of discussions this week about the topic with people I don’t even know. ...read more

    The results of wrongly placed fear.

    The Fruit of Fear TEXT: 2 Tim 1:6 Wherefore I put thee in remembrance that thou stir up the gift of God, which is in thee by the putting on of my hands. 7 For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind. 8 Be not thou therefore ashamed of the testimony ...read more

  • Stupid Things Christians Do To Mess Up Their Lives

    Contributed by Bill Sullivan on May 24, 2004
    based on 54 ratings
     | 12,194 views

    The Word of God clearly illustrates that there are "stupid" things we can do to mess up our lives. What are they?

    Stupid Things Christians Do (to mess up their lives) TCF Sermon April 18, 2004 Did you ever notice how much of life is full of warnings, full of cautions? You can’t drive from here to home after church today, without seeing something that’s a direct warning or caution, or at the very least, a law ...read more

    What Cancer Cannot Do TCF Sermon March 28, 2004 On Saturday March 13, when our dear sister Nancy Reed was first hospitalized, I was driving to the hospital to visit, and I considered that, if this was, indeed, nearing Nancy’s appointed time to go to be with the Lord, we could not, on the Sunday ...read more

    Our complaining and grumbling spirit might just keep us from experiencing all the good things God has for us.

    Confessions of a Chronic Complainer TCF Sermon March 21, 2004 A few weeks ago, I picked up Laura after school, and she told me, Dad, we have to go to the hospital.

    based on 80 ratings
     | 2,806 views

    Lesson 20

    At this point in the Lord’s sermon we come to what is commonly referred to as "The Lord’s Prayer." More properly it should be referred to as "The Model Prayer" or "The Pattern Prayer." While the Lord never literally prayed these words, He does present for us a "model" or a "pattern" that should ...read more
