  • Giant Killing For Beginners

    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Mar 23, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,514 views

    Living victoriously has much in common with David’s victory over Goliath. The shepherd didn’t act in faith that hadn’t already been tested; he acted according to his consistent experience with God.

    When I was young, I was a huge fan of the Walt Disney version of Zorro. I loved the idea of a person who would dress up in a costume, ride a beautiful horse, and cross swords triumphantly with the forces of injustice and oppression—though I would have defined those forces merely as “the bad guys” ...read more

    We suffer relational wrecks when we drive carelessly. Highway safety tips provide spiritual parallels for navigating relationships. One of my guys with the public works department set up some signs on the platform for this one.

    “Give ‘em a Brake” Colossians 3:1-15 A news story out of St. Louis last year began… "He was a loving father and loved his grandkids," Linda Heath never imagined Wednesday would mark the first time she referred to her husband of 31 years in the past tense.” On April 26, 2006 Henry Heath was ...read more

     | 4,176 views

    Our society today acts like it prefers a wimpy, compromising deity, that will agree its sins are ok. But an honest appraisal of what we will respect and honor as God demands that God be exactly who the Bible portrays: the Holy & uncompromising God!

    NOBODY LIKES A WISHY WASHY GOD 1 Sam. 15:29; Ex. 32:14 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. JOKE. Two convicts were working on a chain gang. "I heard the warden's daughter up and married a guy down on cellblock D," the first con says to the other. "The warden's mighty upset about it too." "Why?" asks the ...read more

  • My Friend Jesus

    Contributed by C. Scott Ghan on Dec 30, 2013
     | 7,852 views

    I've tried to describe the believers relationship with Jesus in testimony style. "Let me tell you about my fiend Jesus...Let me tell you what He has done for me..."

    I started with Chris Jordan's sermon: i-Pray #3: What a Friend we Have in Jesus. Scripture is the same, maybe a phrase here and there, more so at the beginning. But this is a different sermon. TITLE: My Friend Jesus 12-30-2013 TEXT: Romans 5:8-11 8 But God showed his great love for us by ...read more

    The solution for America, our churches, and our lives is as close as the elephant in the room.

    If you were in a small room with an elephant, wouldn’t you know that the elephant was there? There is an elephant in the room. It is quite obvious but people turn their backs to it and act as if it is not there. What is the elephant? The elephant is the fact that God is God. ...read more

    See if you can relate to the blind man, his healing, and his growing relationship with Christ.

    When Psalm 91 becomes your reality, Covid 19 cannot touch your home. The global outbreak of this pandemic has caused panic in the lives of people. But as believers we do have a place of great safety. This series on Psalm 91 will be a great immunity booster.

    We read in Psalm 91:2, “I will say to the LORD, "You are my refuge and my fortress, my God in whom I trust." (GW) If we observe the above mentioned verse, the Psalmist refers to God in a most personal way when He says of God, ‘My refuge’, ‘My fortress’ and ‘My God’. God is not a ...read more

    Although Psalms 9 and 10 fit together in an alphabetical pattern, they are very different. Yet, both are vital aspects of a positive relationship with god

    I cannot think of ABC without thinking of that demand in the David Mamet play and film, “Glengarry Glenn Ross,” where the supervisor keeps telling the salesmen to “Always Be Closing.” Now, I meant the ABCs of the alphabet when I entitled this sermon.
