    IT takes FAITH to step out upon the water. But before you can have a “walking on water experience: YOU HAVE TO GET OUT OF THE BOAT!!!!

    Get out of the boat Matt. 14:28-29 28 And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. 29 And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. What a wonderful experience for Peter. This was ...read more

    Beginning To Sink

    Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 19, 2013
     | 7,442 views

    The story of Peter walking on the water and beginning to sink provides excellent lessons for us to prevent us from beginning to sink in the trouble waters of life.

    There are two sights in human life which fill the heart with profound sorrow. The first sight is that of a person who has sunk amid the troubled waters of life. It is the one whose once youthful face is no more because of rough, hard living. It is the person who had a good raising, who wore good ...read more

    "As The Hart....so"

     | 10,953 views

    The animal’s need for water, however, is the primary message emphasized in our text. The deer-like creature must have accessible and adequate supplies of water.

    Panting After God “As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after Thee, O God” (Psa. 42:1). According to The Zondervan Pictoral Bible Dictionary, the “hart” of Bible times was “similar to the American elk but somewhat smaller.” Harts are stags or male deer whereas ...read more

    The Old Testament Law was very strict about how the people of Israel were to clease themselves... but the bronze laver was only used by the priests. What can that mean for Christians today?

    OPEN: Years ago I went to the a seminar for preachers put on by a local hospital. In part, the seminar was an attempt on their part to show appreciation for our ministry to their patients. But they also went over various items that would make our ministry more effective. Amongst the topics they ...read more

    Because God has a reason for each season in our life, we can trust His timing.

    A Time for Everything Ecclesiastes 3:1-8 Rev. Brian Bill August 3-4, 2024 I’ve had some wedding bloopers over the years. One time, I called the groom by the wrong name. The bride’s name was Jennifer, and during the most reverent part of the ceremony I called the husband-to-be Bennifer. Everyone ...read more

     | 3,602 views

    We will never find our purpose in life if we put the pursuit of our pleasures above God’s priorities.

    The Search for Satisfaction Rev. Brian Bill Ecclesiastes 2:1-17 July 20-21, 2024 According to the 2024 World Happiness Report, the U.S. ranks 23rd on a global measure of happiness across 143 countries in the world.

    Who's In Control Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Oct 25, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,483 views

    We as humans have a hard time giving up control of anything, but in order to find the abundant life Jesus offers, we must cede authority of our lives to Him, even if that means going into choppy waters.

    We began last time by looking at Jesus as He came down from giving the Sermon on the Mount. He begins to demonstrate that it isn’t all talk—that He really is the coming King and controls His creation, both the visible and invisible. We see Him first approached by two people who really have no ...read more

    Unleavened Bread And The Passover - The Bread In The Lord’s Supper – The Meanings Of Them All Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 1, 2025
     | 408 views

    The bread in the Lord’s Supper. We examine the Jewish Passover and concentrate on the unleavened bread. The Lord’s Supper came from that Passover so we see how it relates. Different denominations treat the Lord’s Supper/Communion differently. We consider the leaven as well.

    UNLEAVENED BREAD AND THE PASSOVER - AND THE LORD’S SUPPER – THE MEANINGS OF THEM ALL The purpose of this article is not for dispute. It is to provide information. I suppose some will disagree with me on some point here and there, because not all things related to this message are clear cut. ...read more

     | 5,936 views

    A rare conversation between two Lords - the LORD and the Lord. The enemies of the second Lord are to be put under his feet, and he is to be a high priest forever after the priestly order of Melchizedek. What is the order of Melchizedek?

    For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated.

    Jesus says we must be born of water and the spirit.

    Born Again John 3: 1 - 8 Intro: 3 men died and were standing at the pearly gates. St. Peter asked, “What have you done to deserve heaven?” The 1st man, a police officer said, “I enforced the law and fought crime.” St. Peter said, “OK, go on in.” The 2nd was a wealthy man who said, “I used my ...read more

    What Does It Mean That God Has Given Us An "inheritance"?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 29, 2025
     | 532 views

    It's an odd phrase: we have been given an "inheritance" in Christ? What does that mean? It's not like God is going to die! The phrase doesn't actually point us toward death but toward the Exodus. What can we learn from that reference?

    WHAT IN THE WORLD DOES THAT MEAN? What does Paul mean when he speaks of us having an “inheritance” in the Lord? - Ephesians 1:14; Colossians 1:12; Colossians 3:24. - This is a phrase that has bothered me for a long time and I didn’t really have a great answer to it. There are a few places in his ...read more

    The Broken Heart

    based on 66 ratings
     | 18,025 views

    In the passage, the Blood of Jesus was shed by a Roman spear... but neither John nor any other part of Scripture makes note of the importance of Christ’s blood in this story. Is there a message in the blood that flowed from Jesus side?

    OPEN: About a year ago I received this e-mail: In 2003, Mel Gibson released a film called The Passion which dramatically and bloodily captured much of the trial and crucifixion of Christ. Because of it’s graphicness, it was rated "R". The "R", of course, is because of the violence, the gore. In ...read more

    This miracle, recorded in Matthew 14:22-33, not only demonstrated Jesus' divine power but also conveyed profound spiritual lessons for His disciples and for us.

    Good morning, beloved brothers and sisters in Christ. Today, we gather to reflect on one of the most remarkable events in Jesus' ministry—His walk on water during a storm.
