    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Nov 20, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,402 views

    We are not truly a "church" if we spend our time fighting. God blesses churches that are unified under His leadership.

    "The Battling Baptists" ... that's the reputation Baptists have, according to Walter Shurden. Baptists are born fighters because they were born fighting. Early Baptists were known as law-breakers. Shurden writes, "They broke the laws in England and they broke the laws in America. And they broke ...read more

    When Jesus came to the world, the first sign He did was to turn the water into wine, signifying the joy of God's good news.

    Many teachers today will use a power point presentation to give a visual picture of what they are trying to communicate. In his gospel, John uses the same technique. His purpose in writing the gospel is to prove that Jesus is the Son of God (John 20:31). To prove his point, John sets before us in ...read more

  • Yes, I Love You, More Than You Can Imagine

    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,431 views

    Jesus asks Peter if he loves him and if he is truly ready to become a disciple. It is a question that Jesus asks of us today. If we know he loves us, how come we don't always do what he wants us to do which is to spread his message to others.

    Our reading this morning comes from the book of John Chapter 21: verses 1-19. It is a story that we might be familiar with, but if not it is an easy story to follow. It was written by the Apostle John, who by now if many of you don’t know is my favorite Gospel writer. John to me is the ...read more

  • Longing For Forgetfulness

    When we seek God’s forgiveness, He not only forgives, He forgets.

    We’ll be looking at Psalm 25 today, paying particular attention to verse 7. This is an acrostic psalm, one of the four psalms using the twenty-two letters of the Hebrew alphabet as the first letters of each line. You remember the old acrostic song we used to sing about mother. M is for the many ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,835 views

    God’s answer to the question: "Who is my neighbor?" often leaves us asking for option "B".

    Today’s question from the Word of God is: Who is your neighbor? I would have to guess that this Scripture is the second most known story that Jesus ever told ... the story of the Good Samaritan. READ vv. 25-29 A Good Question And An Unexpected Answer That’s a good question. People ask questions ...read more

  • From Complaint To Confidence

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Jul 15, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,339 views

    God wants us to be honest and real in our communication with Him. When we are, He can then lead us to the point of confidence in Him.

    Communication between people takes place at three levels: the frivolous level, the factual level, and the feeling level. Frivolous communication takes place on the surface with the use of innocuous questions and casual clichés. How are you doing? Looks like it going to rain today. What do you do ...read more

  • Stumbling Blocks Or Stepping Stones

    Like Barnabas, we can either be stumbling blocks or stepping stones for Christ.

    Acts 4:36-37; 11:23-26 On the path of life, do you tend to be a stumbling block or a stepping stone person? Are you living for Christ in such a connected and convincing fashion that you pick people up instead of tripping them up? Does your winsome witness help others step up to faith in Christ, or ...read more

    A sermon dealing with the certainty of salvation.

    John 3:1-7, 16 There was an old farmer and his wife who had turned in for the night and were just about to fall off to sleep when they heard the clock in the hallway begin to chime.

  • Ditch Patrol

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Jul 15, 2009
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,492 views

    The story of the Good Samaritan turned inside out. God calls all of us to go into the ditch to help others who have fallen into the ditch.

    We’ve talked about two major things concerning you and me. One is God’s unconditional love. In Luke, Jesus tells the story of the Prodigal Son which is His most famous story about the unconditional love of God. He came to demonstrate that and did so clearly. Another thing we’ve talked about and ...read more

    There is a great distinction between the Creator and the creation. God is the creator. He alone is wothy to be praised.

    Charlie Brown and Lucy and Linus are lying on the ground, looking up into the sky. Lucy says, "If you use your imagination, you can see lots of things in the cloud formations.

    God understands the difference between elbows of unconcern or casualness and fingertips of faith.

    In the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke, I found this one story of a study in elbows and fingertips. It is the story of how God understands the difference between elbows of unconcern or casualness and fingertips of faith. The story is the setting of our Lord returning from some time of rest and ...read more

  • I'm Sorry, Lord

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Jul 16, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,226 views

    God provides the possibility of forgiveness when we follow His program of repentance. The we can discover the product which is relief.

    As we communicate with God in the language of complaint, as we honestly bare our souls before the Father, something surprising happens. We discover that, in many cases, the fault is not with God; it is with us. The problem is not that God has turned His back on us but that we have turned our backs ...read more

    Humble yourself and you will be exalted by God.

    It is my great privilege as a preacher of the Word of God to tell you that the same power that brought Jesus Christ out of the grave is available to you.
