Sermons on Childrens:

The Blessing Series

Contributed by Patrick Nix on Jul 9, 2010

Blessings aren’t like anything else we do – they are a pronouncement of God’s good that will come upon another. They are prayers of faith, said aloud, for the benefit of the hearer (the child) as much as for the benefit of the One listening (God).

Blessings are important, aren’t they? We ask for them – and couldn’t survive without them. God is the ultimate “Blesser” – so He has asked the same of His people: for Christian fathers to bless their children. The entire chapter of Genesis 27 speaks of one such blessing – when Isaac blessed both ...read more

Kids In Worship...really?

Contributed by Sarah Keith on Oct 10, 2009

Worship must be included among the basic disciplines of childhood in order to help them understand the honor and respect that is due our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Can you imagine never teaching children the alphabet, and then expecting them to read as adults? Or expecting to have emotionally healthy children, but never giving them hugs or expressing your love to them? If these basic things are so important, then isn’t it equally important to teach children ...read more

How Do We Deal With Suffering And Loss?

Contributed by Billy Ricks on Oct 29, 2009

This sermon was written after my wife birthed our third child stillborn. It came from my heart and I hope that it will help you prepare to help others or even begin to heal you hurt.

Intro: In a world starved for life. Life without aging, life without pain, life without hurt, how do we as Christ followers respond to loss? Do we scream and yell because we don’t understand, sometimes, do we talk it out, sometimes, do we tell God we’re angry and we want to know why, of course. ...read more

Reassuring Words For Jesus Friends

Contributed by Tim Patrick on Jul 21, 2009

This funeral sermon was prepared for the funeral of a four month old but would be good for any funeral.

At a time of death we need reassuring words. Those words are important when they are given but especially when they come from a friend. The words of a friend seem to carry greater weight. They are warm. They are to be trusted. In John 11 we find Jesus sharing a challenging experience with some of ...read more

The Day Samuel Met Jesus Series

Contributed by Jonathan Campbell on Feb 9, 2009

People mistakenly think that young Samuel was a believer when he was helping Eli in the temple. This is not the case. He was an unbeliever. This passage outlines the story of his conversion to Christ, not his call to service.

1. THE UNCONVERTED CHILD "Now Samuel did not yet know the LORD, neither was the word of the LORD yet revealed unto him". I know about the Queen of England but I don’t know her. I know about the President of the United States but I don’t know him. Do you know the LORD or do you just know about ...read more
