    Life 101: Connecting with Others The Faithful Friend A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother. Proverbs 18:24 Two friends were out hunting. As they were walking through the woods, one of them yelled and the other looked up to see a huge ...read more

    Fourth sermon in expository series on Colossians.

    The Colossian Christ followers were facing challenges to their faith.

As you begin to grow in Christ Satan will ...read more

    Part 4 of a series on Blackaby’s Experiencing God: God speaks through the Bible, prayer, circumstances, and the church to reveal Himself, His purposes, and His ways.

    The children were gathered for Sunday School, and the teacher knew that she had a particularly hard lesson to teach that day. She was to teach about the Trinity. She was supposed to teach the children that God is one but in three persons, and how do you explain the concept of the Trinity to young ...read more

    Paul had many friends who helped him accomplish his mission. This sermon gives guidelines for choosing friends that will help you reach God’s goals for your life.

    June 29, 2003 Colossians 4:7-18 “With a little help from my friends” INTRODUCTION I spent Monday through Thursday of this week at Camp Monongahela. Of the 55 campers that we had, 30 of them were “first-timers”. Some of them knew no one when they arrived at camp, and others only ...read more

    One of the rallying cries in the church is "let someone else do it!" Why do people say that, and how do we change their minds about it?

    OPEN: A church once put this on the back page of their bulletin - CHURCH MOURNS DEATH OF PROMINENT MEMBER The church was saddened this past week to learn of the death of one of its most prominent members, "Someone Else." "Someone’s" passing creates a vacancy that will be difficult to fill. ...read more

    The Three-Fold Will Of God

    Contributed by Kenneth Trent on Aug 16, 2003
    based on 68 ratings
     | 6,350 views

    The will of God, as it is relates to man, is manifested in three basic expressions: sovereign, conditional and paternal. Each uniquely depicts His dealings with, and His relationship to, man in particular and His entire creation in general.

    THE THREE-FOLD WILL OF GOD “Epaphras, who is one of you, a bondservant of Christ, greets you, always laboring fervently for you in prayers, that you may stand perfect and complete in all the will of God.” Colossians 4:12. The will of God, as it is relates to man, is manifested in three basic ...read more

    Implement the four steps for God’s Church to minister beyond the church walls

    (Message title and Scripture passage taken from John Maxwell’s series, MAKE YOUR MOVE) I was visiting someone in the hospital this week, and a curtain separated the room into two. At one point, there were loud beeping sounds from a machine on the other side of the curtain, so I looked over. An ...read more

    A Motley Crew, In Chains

     | 3,905 views

    Tychicus, Onesimus, and Aristarchus chose to chain themselves to ministries of encouragement, inclusion, and support.

    If you follow the rock music scene, I guess I should hurry to assure you that the sermon today is not about a heavy metal group, nor is it about some kind of kinky fetish. The theme, "A Motley Crew, In Chains" is evoked by the long list of names which Paul singles out as he finishes the Colossian ...read more

    Remember My Chains Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,382 views

    Like some of Paul’s companions in prison, we may be held back by tasks too small, by shame, or even by our own prejudices. But once we accept our limitations as part of God’s will, they become ways to help others and fulfill our life callings.

    If you suffer severe limitations, what do you wish for? What is your prayer, if you are bound by something that keeps you from doing what you really want to do? Do you wish you could be free from it? Likely you do. Do you even pray that you might have that limitation removed? I expect that I ...read more

    based on 10 ratings
     | 8,099 views

    I have often said the greatest gift God has given to us (second only to Jesus) is the Church. There are so many benefits to being not only a part of the body of Christ on the earth, but a part of a local body of believers.

    WHO IS YOUR EPAPHRAS? Text: Colossians 4:12 “Epaphras, who is one of you, says ‘hello’. What a trooper he has been! He’s been tireless in his prayers for you, praying that you’ll stand firm, mature and confident in everything God wants you to do. I’ve watched him closely and can assure you that he ...read more

    In this text, Paul lists some good friends, which could be categorized in this way. 1- Staying friends 2- Praying friends 3- Straying friends

    INTRO.- Do you know what is closer than a brother? A good friend. A faithful friend is closer than a brother. Prov. 18:24 “A man of many companions may come to ruin, but there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother.” Do you have a friend who sticks closer than a brother? Or did you ever? ...read more
