    Don't Be A Show Off

     | 6,489 views

    This could be used as a stewardship sermon and hopefully would get people to realize that their is more to being a Christian than just filling a pew. Hopefully this sermon compels people to look beyond the superficial and truly look to their heart.

    (a note about the opening illustration; It is not my own but i don't know where I actually found it originally, it is tucked away with some notes I have.) There was a man who called a church and asked if he could speak to the Head Hog at the trough. The secretary said, "Who?" Then ...read more

    "When ‘bad Luck’ Knocks Us Down” Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Apr 4, 2023
     | 1,767 views

    The story of Joseph being sold into slavery provides a compelling example of moments when it seems like "bad luck" has come our way when God may be up to something else.

    WHY DID THAT HAPPEN? There are moments when we feel like bad luck knocked us down. - We will get into the specifics that this passage details as we go through the sermon, but this is obviously a passage with some “just-so-happened” moments. - To use the common vernacular, someone might say, “Oh, ...read more

     | 5,704 views

    A study of the first congregation of the Lord provides us with the example of a church without walls. The members did gather for worship, but they were compelled to penetrate their world to tell others of Jesus. We must do the same in this day.

    “There arose on that day a great persecution against the church in Jerusalem, and they were all scattered throughout the regions of Judea and Samaria, except the apostles. Devout men buried Stephen and made great lamentation over him. But Saul was ravaging the church, and entering house after ...read more

     | 198 views

    God’s judgements compel the inhabitants of the world to learn righteousness! For the redeemed, His judgements encourage us while giving evidence of His love. For the wicked, His judgements cannot be understood, even when seen.

    “The path of the righteous is level; you make level the way of the righteous. In the path of your judgments, O LORD, we wait for you; your name and remembrance are the desire of our soul. My soul yearns for you in the night; my spirit within me earnestly seeks you. For when your judgments ...read more

    While our lives may be fragile and fleeting, the Word of God is enduring and eternal. Let us explore how this truth is meant to anchor us in faith, stir us to worship, and compel us to live purposefully.

    Transformed by Truth: The Enduring Word 1 Peter 1:24-25 (NLT): “As the Scriptures say, ‘People are like grass; their beauty is like a flower in the field. The grass withers, and the flower fades.

    Contributed by James Jackson on Sep 3, 2023
     | 2,068 views

    Ezekiel 22:30 has been the theme verse for lots of men's ministries. It is definitely compelling to think we might be the man God is looking for to stand in the gap. But the truth is, we are missing the point.

    Who Stands in the Breach? Ezekiel 22: 23-31, 2 Kings 25:1-4 Good morning! Please turn in your Bibles to Ezekiel 22:23. Page 664 in the pew Bibles.

    As a follower of Christ you will be compelled to enter into spiritual battle. Paul encourages us by pointing us to Christ and the strength that is His. Therefore, let us stand firm in the victory that our Lord has won on our behalf.

    “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil.

    If we follow the way of Christ’s generosity, and forgiveness with utter loyalty, there will always be folks who will bluntly call us “crazy.”But, “Christ’s love compels us.”

    2 Corinthians 5:11-21 “What on Earth made You do That?” “What on earth made you do that?” The newspaper reporter was incredulous. A young woman had just won a three-week trip around the world. It was the chance of a lifetime! And she had given it up in order to ...read more

     | 10,159 views

    Christians who pursue honouring Christ can anticipate standing alone against the enemies of Christ. How shall the child of God react when compelled to stand alone, without even a fellow saint to stand with him or her?

    “At my first defense, no one came to stand by me, but all deserted me. May it not be charged against them! But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. So, I was rescued from the lion’s mouth.
