    Contributed by Clinton Smith on Feb 18, 2008
     | 5,720 views

    This sermon encourages the believer to embrace lost people as the father embraced his rebellious son.

    As Jesus moves through these stories, He is placing greater and greater emphasis upon the value of the thing lost. In the illustration of The Lost Sheep, there was 1 sheep out of 100 missing, just 1%. In the illustration of The Lost Silver, there was 1 coin out of 10 missing, 10%. In the ...read more

    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,736 views

    What does it mean to be called by God? Is it for everybody or just a few people? How do we know it when it comes? How do I hear God calling? These are some of the questions we will look at.

    Like John the Baptizer we need to be reminded from time to time that Jesus is our promised Messiah.

    In the gospel of Matthew we see a few recurring themes: True spirituality; living by faith; and achieving greatness. All of these themes overlap to some extent. Matthew 18 begins with the disciples re-opening these issues again by asking Jesus a question.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,685 views

    We might be surprised if we really knew how many people there are that really don’t understand, what being “born again” really means, and what being “saved” really consists of.

    John 1: 12-13 WHAT DOES THE BIBLE MEAN, TO BE BORN AGAIN? 1-3-09 I believe this is the appropriate message to start the New Year out with, becoming a new creature in Christ Jesus. Listen as I read today’s text found in JOHN 1:12-13 12But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become ...read more

    The Importance Of Discipline In Discipleship You hardly hear the word today. We just don’t like to use it. It has vacated almost every aspect of our living.

    What should come to our mind when we think of servant leaders?

    One of the songs we sang today is “Make Me a Servant.” I pray that that is our prayer. “Lord, make me a servant today.” Last time I preached, we saw that serving is a high calling.
