    Jesus means for the Communion service to be a lot more than just a religious observance, but to keep fresh in our minds the act of sacrificial love He has for us.

    We look for heroes today, and we only find them in comic books, but there used to be a real hero. He lived a long time ago. His name was Jesus, and He led a very action-packed life. Jesus had just healed a man in a cemetery from being demon possessed, and then when he got home, there was a ...read more

    The story is told of how they used to make the masts for the old sailing ships of the past. They would go into a forest and select a tree that was tall and straight. Then, they would cut all the surrounding trees down, leaving that large tree standing by itself to endure the winds of time for ...read more

    Can you remember when you were 8-years old? What was your top priority at that age? Was it the efficient operations of your household, or was it to hurry and go out so you could play with your friends? All I can remember was that I was in the 3rd grade and I loved recess.

    The honor of being admitted into communion with God and being employed by/for him does not exempt us from the duties due to our families and callings in this world.

    Exodus 4:21-23 21 And the LORD said unto Moses, When thou goest to return into Egypt, see that thou do all those wonders before Pharaoh, which I have put in thine hand: but I will harden his heart, that he shall not let the people go. 22 And thou shalt say unto Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD, Israel ...read more

    In Christ Ministry there are series of special events like, the Marriage in Cana, Sermon on the Mount, Washing of the Feet of the disciples and the Holy Communion Service and The Transfiguration. To mentioned just few.

    Text: (Mark‬ ‭9‬:‭2-9‬ KJV) And after six days Jesus taketh with him Peter, and James, and John, and leadeth them up into an high mountain apart by themselves: and he was transfigured before them. And his raiment became shining, exceeding white as snow; so as no ...read more

    Our spiritual life, our moral life must be built on the sold foundation of Christ’s law of love, and maintained and grown by frequent prayer, confession and communion.

    Thursday of the 12th Week in Course 2018 Reformation/Revolution Build on rock or build on sand? Who on earth would build on sand?

    Some Actions Are Always Wrong So What Do We Do? Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jun 19, 2021
     | 1,216 views

    Murdering the innocent is always gravely immoral. Thus we have been taught since the first Christians accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and celebrated communion together.

    Homily Monday of 12th week in ordinary time If we are to understand what the Lord is saying to us today, and more importantly what He is not saying, we need to find the key word in the Gospel: it’s “hypocrite.” A hypocrite is someone who calls sin a sin in other people, but ignores the sin in ...read more

     | 1,770 views

    The main point of this sermon is to emphasize the importance of dedicating time to God in His house, where we can find safety, communion, acceptance, and a deeper understanding of Him.

    Good morning, family of God! We gather here today to delve into the Word of God, to seek His wisdom, and to understand His purpose for us. Today, we turn our attention to the Gospel of Luke, specifically Luke 2:49. Here, we find a young Jesus in the temple, astonishing the scholars with His ...read more

    2 - Yours And Mine Series

    Contributed by Kent Kessler on Nov 5, 2024
     | 628 views

    That is the promise, “I will be their God and they will be my people” or “I am yours and you are mine.” This is marriage language. And we have a symbol of this we practice every month in communion.

    When was the last time you made a promise? Did you keep it? Perhaps when you were married? A wife took her husband to counseling and in tears the woman tells the counselor that her husband doesn’t tell her he loves her. The counselor asked the husband, if that is true, and he said, “I told her I ...read more

    Fitting In

    Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Feb 13, 2011
     | 7,294 views

    comedian Lenny Bruce gives our Christian psychology a metaphorical cattle prod shock when he said, “Every day people are straying away from the church and going back to God.’” I suspect it has a lot to do with fitting in.

    “Fitting In” John 17:11-19 I read the prologue to a story called Girl in the Middle. The girl is Kim Satinsky who is in eighth grade. She says, “You would think that being in a clique is fun but take my word for it: It’s not. They make me wear expensive things when I’m not really rich and tell me ...read more

    The Blessings Of Hardships

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Aug 26, 2019
     | 5,906 views

    Jesus said he came to, "send fire on the earth." This sermon takes a unique approach on this idea and uses the fire metaphor as a purging of the things inside us that hinder us from becoming who we can be through God.

    The Blessing of Hardships Since this Gospel reading is intense, I thought I’d begin by admitting something kind of funny about it. When I read it this week, I pictured Jesus at a Charlie Daniels concert singing, “Fire on the mountain run boys run.” It also made me wonder, “… how am I supposed ...read more

    The Anchor Of The Soul

    Contributed by Paul Dayao on Aug 21, 2025

    Using the metaphor of a ship caught in a violent tempest, this sermon introduces the Christian hope found in Hebrews 6 as a "sure and stedfast" heavenly anchor for the soul, providing an unshakeable foundation during life's storms of anxiety, grief, and uncertainty.

    Sermon: The Anchor of the Soul Text: Hebrews 6:17-20 I want you to imagine for a moment a small vessel upon the great and mighty sea. The sun is bright, the water is like glass, and the journey is pleasant. But as any mariner will tell you, the sea is a fickle master. Without warning, the sky can ...read more

    Through the signs and symbols of Holy Communion we can use our five senses to gain a deeper understanding of God’s love for us through Jesus Christ.

    SAINT AUGUSTINE GAVE PROBABLY ONE OF THE MOST PROFOUND, YET BASIC DEFINITIONS OF THE SACRAMENTS.
