    We Remember Premium Sermon

    Contributed by PRO Premium on Oct 9, 2023
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,173 views

    The sermon explores the importance of remembering significant events and God's faithfulness in our lives, using tools like anniversaries and ceremonies, and how this act of remembering helps us honor the past, stand firm in the present, and foster hope for the future.

    Many of us work hard to remember things that matter to us. Birthdays, anniversaries, moments in time, people, pets, the list could go on and on. We do this because we know how fickle our memories can be. We often forget the things that matter to us. Not because we want to, not because we’re ...read more

    Please Pass The Salt

    Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Sep 19, 2018

     | 27,108 views

    Jesus takes a simple image – no ambiguity - no hidden meanings - nothing out of the ordinary -- just common, everyday salt. Like the parables, Jesus uses a simple, concrete object to teach the people a profound lesson about the Kingdom of Heaven.

    TITLE: PLEASE, PASS THE SALT SCRIPTURE: ST. MATTHEW 5:13 Michelle and I enjoy entertaining by preparing meals for our friends and guests. The oven is usually going or the smoker is fired up in the backyard. On Saturday mornings I enjoy cooking breakfast for the family and oftentimes have a few ...read more

    Grounds For Divorce

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 28, 2023
     | 1,168 views

    God’s love song to Israel turned into the opening argument in a divorce court. Don't let that happen to you.

    Lawsuits are very much in the news nowadays, especially in our nation’s capital. People are suing each other for every reason you can imagine, even over political and religious differences. You can’t keep track of who’s accusing whom of what without a score card, and even that has to be updated ...read more

    A look at how this elegant love song has an important message for us today. We will focus on three things: the foxes; the vines (the vineyard) and the grapes.

    LET’S GO FOX HUNTING! “Catch us the foxes, The little foxes that spoil the vines, For our vines have tender grapes.” Song of Solomon 2:15 (NKJV) The Song of Solomon is a love song rife with metaphor and allegory. On the face of it, this elegant song depicts the courtship of King Solomon and a ...read more

    based on 21 ratings
     | 4,165 views

    This is an Advent sermon.

    Read Isaiah 11:1-10. Jesus turned the world upside down, or more appropriately, right side up. People never really understood Jesus. Paul said, “For those who live in Jerusalem…did not recognize him” (Acts 13:27). Everyone expected a military-political leader. Jesus closest disciples didn’t ...read more

    An Easter message focused on the meaning of resurrection for the here and now.

    THE LIVING DEAD Luke 9:57-62 (focus v. 60) “Let the dead bury their own dead.” I. A RADICAL INDICTMENT This statement is one of the most radical statements that Jesus ever made. And He made many. He called a man to follow him. The man’s response is that he must first see to it ...read more

    Can We Pray Up A Prophet?

    Contributed by Scott Bradford on Jul 23, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,582 views

    This sermon is about Hannah dedicating praying for a child but giving him to God, which in turns means the raising up of a Prophet! What if we prayed for god to raise up from among us a National Prophet?

    Illustration: Laurel and I with our first child. She didn’t want any pain meds… and then she did… a few minutes later, holding our first born son… the pain was gone. Interesting thing about birth, the mother can be exhausted, and in pain, shouting at their husband ...read more
