    WE are going to look at Jesus’ first disciples. What happened to these men when God called their name?

    INTRODUCTION  A Country farmer and his boy ventured to the big city for the first time.

    Living Sacrifices

    This is the 6th sermon in a series on Paul’s letter to the Romans. The problem with living sacrifices is they keep getting down off the altar.

    “living sacrifices” Now that’s an interesting turn of phrase. It sounds like an oxymoron. Living and sacrifice don’t really seem like they go together, do they? When I think of the word ‘sacrifice’, certain images come to mind. I think of a play made in baseball, where one player is tagged out ...read more

    This sermon focuses on the audacious call to Abraham to sacrifice his only son and reflects on the times when we feel that God is asking too much of us. It is only in light of the sacrifice of God’s only Son that we can appreciate his call.

    When God Asks Too Much Gen. 22 and Mark 14:32ff Newland Street C/C 8/20/06 (Sunday Evening) Introduction: Have you ever felt like God was asking too much? Sometimes other people amaze us. They will ask us to do something, which we feel obligated to do, or have to come up with some excuse not to ...read more

    Let your congregation know the three things that a disciple of Jesus can not be without. (heart pointed to Jesus, a willingness to grapple with Jesus in relationship--get to know who he really is, and to walk in His steps. Scripture is taken from a vari

    I wrote this sermon to make people think about following the true Jesus as he would have us to be.

    I began sermon with the Todd Agnew Song "My Jesus"; showing the words on the screen as it was sung. My Jesus - By Todd Agnew Which Jesus do you follow? Which Jesus do you serve? If Ephesians says to imitate Christ, why do you look so much like the world? Cause My Jesus bled and died, He spent ...read more

    The highest priority of the Christian is to become an imitator of Christ - a replica of our Lord. In Ephesians 5, Paul addresses how to be such an imitation.

    The deveolpment of a disciple is the work of the Holy Spirit.

    In this series, we have said that there are two ways for the Christian to live. We can live as a worldly (carnal) Christian or as a Spiritual Chris­tian. In the Bible, living one’s life as a Worldly Christian is referred to as walking "in the flesh" or "according to the sinful nature," while ...read more

    Drop Everything

    This is a monologue portraying Simon Peter and his decision to "drop everything" and follow Jesus.

    What would cause you to drop everything and do something completely different? While in seminary there were several times where when I was studying my friends would try to pull me away from those studies to do far more important things, or so they said. These things included going to IHOP at ...read more

    Our lifelong goal is to become more and more like Jesus. Hebrews 12:2 helps us on that journey.

    Become a Committed Follower of Jesus Hebrews 12:1-2 Philippians 3:12-14 As we “Go for the gold” in our Christian life our goal is Christ-likeness. The Hebrew writer challenges us to keep the goal before us and not forget it. “We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, on whom our faith depends ...read more

    I Corinthians 6 challenges us to follow the way of the cross in dealing with contentious issues within the church

    Several years ago, on a Sunday morning, I was responsible for the children’s story. I wanted to help the children think about Jesus as their friend, so I began with this question: Who would you go to if you had a problem? One child said he would go to his grandma. Another said he would go to ...read more

    Two weeks ago I asked the question, why are we here? The answer was Jesus’ call for us to be, first, disciples, and second, to disciple others. Last week I asked you, who have you been hanging out with?

    #12 -- Humility Series

     | 10,779 views

    Jesus teaches us three things about humility: it starts at the bottom, it grows out of gratitude, and it is an act of faith.

    “Oh, it’s hard to be humble . . .!” Have you ever heard that little tune, “Oh, it’s hard to be humble, when you’re prefect in every way?” It’s a little tune I remember from growing up. And I read a couple of stories this week that sort of illustrate this song very well. The first was about Henry ...read more
