Does Your Heart Sing?

Contributed by Scott Carmer on Jan 21, 2008

The Psalmist of Ps. 40 was in deep despair when God set his feet on rock and put a new song in his heart. Can our hearts sing of the saving power of God?

Does Your Heart Sing? Psalm 40:1-11 January 20, 2008 I know that this may sound pretty odd…maybe crazy to you. As I look back on my years in ministry, I can say that some of the most profound experiences I have had have been associated with death and dying. I generally tend to lump people into ...read more

Whom Have I Cheated? Series

Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Jul 2, 2013

One thing the church lacks is more people of character and integrity. Character and integrity are used synonymously, but there is a difference between the two. Character develops through individual situations, integrity finalizes codified virtues learned.

WHOM HAVE I CHEATED? THE SIGNIFICANCE OF INTEGRITY 1 SAMUEL 12:1-5 1 Samuel said to all Israel, “I have listened to everything you said to me and have set a king over you. 2 Now you have a king as your leader.

"The Church – The Body Of Jesus On Earth”...... "The Mission Statement Of Jesus”

Contributed by Clarence Eisberg on Jan 20, 2022

The home coming of Jesus is similar to a 25th or 50th class reunion. Old playmates wanted demonstrations in their village, not the message of salvation. Leonard Sweet said: “Jesus is on earth today but not as an individual. He is here in the form of the “ekklesia”, the church.

Are We There Yet, Daddy?

Contributed by William Mouser on Feb 25, 2005

Focusing on the "blank years" of so many of the Bible’s saints, including most of the life-time of our Savior, this sermon exhorts to diligence in well-doing, until God brings us to that time for which all our lives are meant.

Second Sunday in Christmas Luke 3:1-17 One of the most enduring stock-comic situations in modern fiction and cinema is the spectacle of a family traveling in a car. The father is behind the wheel.

Busy About The Wrong Thing

Contributed by Curtis Kittrell on Oct 8, 2001

Given a man to keep, he had lost the man. And he had lost him because he was too busy to keep him. Evidently the servant considered that an excuse. Had he been idle, then indeed the loss of the man would have been an unpardonable offence.

I’ve made it a rule over the years never to discuss church politics stuff in a sermon. Indeed, I try to avoid bringing up issues that are specifically churchy altogether, in a sermon especially - partly because I don’t think it’s appropriate to try to polarise people over issues that are ...read more
