    How To Behave In Church Series

    Contributed by Brian Bill on Mar 19, 2003
    based on 26 ratings
     | 17,735 views

    We’re to respect other believers and strive to live in peace with everyone. We’re also called to communicate what people need to hear, remembering to be patient with everyone.

    How to Behave in Church I enjoy collecting bulletin bloopers. I’ve shared some in the past and have recently come across some brand new ones: Attend church and you will hear an excellent speaker and heave a healthy lunch. [I hope that’s not a reference to our potluck that follows the second ...read more

    Being Busy For Christ Series

     | 46,794 views

    God doesn’t want us to be loafers while we wait for the appearing of His Son. Instead, we are to work hard, settle down, and earn our wages. We must never tire of doing what is right.

    Being Busy for Christ For those of you who are wondering if I got my hair cut, the answer is “yes.” On Wednesday, I invited Harold Davis to speak about sheep at the Kiwanis club. He did a great job, as he did this summer when he helped us learn more about Psalm 23. In my introduction of Harold, I ...read more

    The Lord Who Leads Series

    Contributed by Brian Bill on Mar 20, 2003
    based on 50 ratings
     | 67,546 views

    Since this psalm is so familiar, we’re in danger of missing the depth of its meaning. And, because it’s setting is in the world of sheep and shepherds, many of us city slickers can slide right past its richness.

    The Lord Who Leads Most everyone has heard of Psalm 23. It’s a poem with no peer and has been called the sweetest song ever sung. Abraham Lincoln read it to cure his blues, and President Bush proclaimed it publicly to calm our nation’s fears after 9-11. I read these words out loud a week ago ...read more

    Longing For The Lord Series

    based on 129 ratings
     | 34,809 views

    I want us to take a look at Psalm 42 in order to better understand the kind of depression that can hit us in the spiritual solar plexus.

    Longing for the Lord Last week we focused our attention on Psalm 32, and established the fact that our unconfessed sins can cause us physical problems. When we don’t confess we can experience distress. What we’ll learn this morning is that pain is not always a direct result of sin. Last Monday ...read more

    Many are searching for the perfect gift for their loved ones this Christmas, but God has a gift for us that will wear out or lose it power -- His mercies are new every morning.

    The Perfect Gift For Christmas Luke 1:39-56 Time is running out. You only have a few days left to shop. I know you want to get the perfect gift for your loved ones this Christmas. As your pastor, I feel a special responsibility to help so I have searched the catalogs, Christmas flyers, and ...read more

     | 45,272 views

    Examines Elijah’s life of prayer and explains how we as ordinary people can experience the same kind of power Elijah did.

    Experiencing the Power of God When I think of great men of prayer, men who accomplished great things for God, I think of Elijah. Here is a man who called down fire from heaven, brought a widow’s son back to life, ran faster than a horse, traveled 40 days and 40 nights on the strength of one meal. ...read more

    The study of God’s Word may be difficult at times, but it is well worth the effort.

    January 23, 2000 2 Tim. 2:15 The Bible – worth the effort (Part 2) INTRODUCTION How much do you value the fact that you have a Bible that you can pick up and read for yourself? [read Jn 3:16 from the Greek Bible] No, I have not started speaking in tongues; what I was reading was ...read more

    based on 74 ratings
     | 10,863 views

    This sermon examines the lives of several prominent O.T. people (Lot, David, Achan, etc.) to see how coveting almost destroyed them.

    October 1, 2000 Exodus 20:17 “Going for the gold!” (part 2) INTRODUCTION Last week, we began our look at the last of the 10 Commandments – “Thou shalt not covet”. We said that coveting is that overwhelming desire that we have to possess what belongs to someone else. It may be that ...read more

     | 12,855 views

    This sermon deals with our committment to Christ and making our lives count by living the life Christ wants us to live rather than our own.

    Make It Count GNLCC 1/28/2002 2 Chronicles 21:8-19 Philippians 7:7:15 Text Mark 10:17-27 Let’s suppose for a moment you’ve just reached your thirty second birthday.

     | 5,528 views

    In this part we will examine the purpose of our creation, satan’s deception and the process of temptation. We can clearly observe that nothing has changed since the beginning. Will we learn from history or relive it?

    Part II. Why did God create us? Why does it matter whether God used evolution or creation to form man? There are two major reasons this is a foundational issue. We are created in the image of God. Because we are the reflection of God, we have been created for the purpose of glorifying God. Unlike ...read more

    Are You Paying Attention?

    based on 57 ratings
     | 11,390 views

    Few people make a conscious decision to reject God. Most people just never get around to making a commitment and drift right by the safe harbor of Heaven.

    “Are You Paying Attention?” Hebrews 2:1-4 Moms and dads are accustomed to dishing out advice. To try and guide a son or daughter through the narrow straights of life is part of the responsibility of a parent. Some guidance, if not heeded, will cost, but the price is not too severe. “Brush your ...read more

    Work place struggles today compared with the slavery of Paul’s time, understanding them, facing them with changed attitudes/hearts by the power of God’s Spirit, for a day of Pentecost in work-life.

    How to be a Great Worker Eph.6:5-9 (NIV) Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, and with sincerity of heart, just as you would obey Christ. 6 Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but like slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart. 7 ...read more

    The Source Of My Hope

    based on 56 ratings
     | 5,437 views

    In confusing times of tragedy and loss like many Americans are facing at the present time, it is hard to make sense of it all. The Psalmist gives us encouragement to seek understanding and confidence in the "sanctuary" of God’s presence.

    The Source of My Hope Psalm 73 I heard on the news this past week that one of the outcomes of what has happened since the September 11th attack on America has been a rush on bookstores around the country. The sale of Bibles is up and that is good news. Alongside of this good news is the report that ...read more
