  • Humility 2016

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Apr 20, 2016
     | 6,444 views

    Humility is disdained by this world but the Kingdom of God and the citizens of Heaven are those who are contrite and humble. Sometimes we need to examine ourselves to see if we are prideful or humble. Hopefully this sermon helps us with that examination.

    Luke 14:1-11 (read from the Bible and have the congregation follow along) Luke 14:11 NIV “All those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” Humility … humility in relationship to God comes from knowing that God is God and we are ...read more

  • Do We Submit Ourselves As We Should So That We Can Have A Healthy Christian Relationship?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jul 2, 2023
     | 649 views

    Submission is a frequently abused word, but it does not mean turning oneself into a doormat. Unfortunately, many do not see it that way.

    Submission is a frequently abused word. It does not mean turning into a doormat. Christ, at whose name "every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth" (Philippians 2:10), presented His will to the Father, and we honor Christ by following his ...read more

  • A "persian Flaw": How Peter (And The Rest Of Us) Need To Learn To Forgive Ourselves

    Contributed by Jessica Linde on Aug 29, 2024
     | 452 views

    Looking at the example of Peter and his denial of Jesus, this sermon's ultimate message is that God has long since already forgiven us of our mistakes, so now it's time that we forgive ourselves.

    When I was conversing with colleagues earlier this week about the theme of today’s service, I was reminded of an idiom that we have in the English language: for something to be a “Persian flaw”. Have any of you heard this idiom before? Right… okay. A couple of you. It’s one that isn’t as common ...read more

  • The Lost Sheep

    When Jesus compares us to sheep, it may not be flattering, but it is apt.

    Sheep don’t have a very good image, do they? If I asked what your favourite animal was, I doubt very much that any of you would say “sheep”. Our view of sheep is somewhat negative. We don’t say positive things like “Oh, he’s as strong as a sheep” or “She’s as wise as a sheep”. How about “as ...read more

    The church is compared to a house, and we are the individual building blocks.

    Introduction: This morning, I want to talk about a church building. Not the physical building that surrounds us here which is composed of wood and stone, but the building of God, the church of our Lord that is composed of living stones. The New Testament uses a number of different descriptive ...read more

    based on 29 ratings
     | 11,032 views

    This is a sermon which compares the game of golf to the game of life.

    The latter portion of my text reads, "....and without a parable spake He not unto them." Today I will use a parable or a comparison to illustrate the game of life. It is obvious that the Apostle Paul was knowledgeable of the sporting events of his day. On numerous occasions he used athletics to ...read more

    (Luke 7:36-47) "Thou gavest me no kiss" There are two people described in our text. First we have a Pharisee; a very refined gentleman; a man of dignity and respect. Then there is a prostitute; a woman of ill repute; an outcast of society; a sinner. Jesus is the guest of the Pharisee, and has ...read more
