     | 3,463 views

    A message given to my homiletic class peers in seminary, on the why, how and where of holiness.

    Wholly Holy Context: 1 Peter 1 Text: 1 Peter 1:14-16 "Be holy, because I am holy." What does that statement mean to you? What does the word "holiness" bring to your mind? When I was growing up holiness meant not doing whatever the Baptist’s were doing. I’ve heard sermons on short-sleeved ...read more

    Symptoms Of A Society's Sinfulness Series

    based on 32 ratings
     | 18,450 views

    Sin separates from God, be it the sin of a person or of a nation. God demands righteousness on the part of the people with whom He enters into covenant relationship. The fault of rejection is not the Lord’s but His peoples’ choice of the ways of sin.

    ISAIAH 59: 1-8 SYMPTOMS OF A SOCIETY’S SINFULNESS [Romans 3:4-18] There are always reasons if God’s promises are not being fulfilled. It is not because God cannot fulfill His Word or does not want to fulfill His Word. Here God states He is not fulfilling His promises and delivering His people ...read more

    First of a four part series on how our church impacts the community through the ministry of our members.

    In light of all the recent news about the financial crisis in our country, I thought it was rather interesting that I came across this article from June of 2004 that reported that Freddie Mac had adopted a new logo in order to “reflect the company’s renewed focus on its vital housing ...read more

    How are you doing in your walk with Jesus? Are you growing? Are you making any headway in your growth as a disciple? Does God ever whack you on the side of the head to get your attention? Has He been doing it lately? As we have been studying Scripture together, particularly in Luke, we have seen ...read more

    An examination of the 8th commandment and what it means for building healthy relationships when we don’t take from those relationships, but work to give.

You see, the baker was suspicious of the farmer, suspecting that he wasn’t getting his money’s worth when he paid for a pound of butter. He weighed the farmer’s butter ...read more

    Changed Lives (the mark of faithful disciples) spur thanksgiving because they confirm God’s election (and our faith).

    Christianity is about the power of the gospel to change lives. The death and resurrection of Christ are the keys to the gospel message and the keys to unleashing the power of God in our lives.

    Boldness In Church Planting Series

    Contributed by Paul Apple on Jan 13, 2010
     | 7,594 views

    Supernatural boldness in church planting validates authentic ministry when based on pure motives and proper conduct (the marks of Spirit-filled church planters).

    As we reach the end of our first month of attempting to plant a church and as we study the NT model for church planting from the Book of 1 Thessalonians, we need to ask ourselves if we are too tentative. What is impressive from studying Paul and Silas and Timothy is their confidence and ...read more

    Not Obliged Series

    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Jan 16, 2010
     | 4,716 views

    As our church considers who we really are as the Body of Christ, we find it necessary to focus on some very core scriptures about Christian Behavior. This is one of them.

    No Obligation Text: Romans 13:8-14 I know this is going to sound surprising to those of us who live near, in, or work and/or play in the City of Chicago, but I once saw a police officer turn down free coffee and doughnuts. Yes, that’s right. I was on a “ride along” with an officer ...read more
