    Jesus came to reveal God to us. He was gentle and kind, and yet there were some things that really set Him off! At the same time, He loved a good party and was constantly looking to bring healing to lives of people. He is the revealer, the confronter,

    When you have spent time in God’s presence as a loving Father, a benevolent King, a Sovereign Lord and Great Provider, then your heart, your mind and your soul is ready to confront the sin in your life and come before your Redeemer.

He and his sister Sally were visiting grandma on the farm for a couple of weeks and there was no better a time to work on his sling shot skills.

  • Resolving Ministry Conflict By Putting Pride To Rest

    Contributed by Timothy Darling on Aug 13, 2006
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,636 views

    As ministers together in the gospel of Christ, if we fall into arguing amongst ourselves, we have lost focus and we are fighting the wrong enemy. We are all on the same team. Sometimes small things need to be let go in favor of confronting larger issues.

    As we have followed the new disciples of Jesus, we have seen a number of important lessons taught and demonstrated. These early lessons are from the book of John: • Jesus changes your perspective • Jesus gains your faith as a friend • Jesus spends time with family • Jesus introduces us to ...read more

  • Life's Two Choices Series

    Contributed by David Scudder on Nov 22, 2009
     | 3,948 views

    The Bible is clear that there are only two choices when we are confronted with the one true God. Sadly, those choices have been muddied by modern American Christianity. For example, does God hate? For the last 80 years or so the theme of much of the pr

    Purpose: To describe the glorious reign of Christ. Aim: I want the listener to understand the consequences of following or not following Christ. REVIEW: 1:1-20 I.

    The mission of God is to search for those who are spiritually lost or living under a false theology. God sought out Adam and Eve, invited the children of Israel to join him in his mission and so does Jesus. Jesus confronts the Pharisees with parables re

    based on 8 ratings
     | 16,652 views

    James simply states in Chapter 1 what a Christian has: Real Christians have a real faith that can stand under pressure. James could not be considered as a modern television evangelist because his message is too confrontational. His message is that the pow

  • Dealing With Temptation

    Contributed by Jerry Flury on Jan 18, 2011
    based on 7 ratings
     | 12,549 views

    Every one of us is confronted everyday with temptation from three sources – the world, the flesh, and the devil. None are immune. When temptation comes we can either overcome it or it can overcome us. How we deal with temptation will determine the outcome

    Dealing with Temptation 1 Corinthians 10:12-13 Struggling to make ends meet on a first-call salary, the pastor was livid when he confronted his wife with the receipt for a $250 dress she had bought.

  • A Disturbing Call From A Merciful God Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Feb 17, 2020
     | 4,529 views

    The call by God for Jonah to go to Nineveh to preach is a call which confronts Jonah with a disturbing dynamic of God’s unanticipated mercy. Jonah finds this call too disturbing so he goes in the opposite direction to run away from the call of God.

    Message Jonah 1:1-3 A Disturbing Call From A Merciful God I don’t have definitive proof but it would be my educated opinion that the story of Jonah … specifically the part where Jonah is swallowed by a large fish or whale … is one of the most well-known stories in the Bible. Ask anybody who Jonah ...read more

  • Taking Heed To God's Word Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jul 4, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,032 views

    The evidence of our Christian sincerity is demonstrated in the way we treat one another. God's word to His people is that we would love our neighbor as ourselves. Zechariah confronts this matter with a reminder of Israel's historical experience.

    In Zechariah 7 a delegation came from the Jews in Bethel asking the question: “Should I mourn and fast in the fifth month, as I have done for so many years?”i During the 70 years of exile in Babylon, the Jews had been observing four fasts in memory of the destruction of Jerusalem. The most ...read more

    Simon magus, also known as Simon the Sorcerer or the Magician, was a religious figure whose confrontation with Peter is recorded in Acts 8:9–24. The act of simony, or paying for the position, is named after Simon, who tried to buy his way into the power of the Apostles.

  • The Power Of Forgivness Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 3, 2021
     | 2,803 views

    One of the things I love about this prayer is that it doesn’t pretend there aren’t real problems around us. It confronts the real needs in the world – pain and hunger. The Lord’s Prayer is designed to change our priorities and to reverse our thinking.

    This is the fourth message for us to look at the Lord’s Prayer. And it’s the richest single source in the entire Bible of information on how to pray. One story stands out about the importance of the Lord’s Prayer in the life of a Christian is from a gentleman who attends at NRH, Mike O’Neil. Mike ...read more

  • The Book Of Galatians – Chapter 3:1-9 - Message 6 – Paul Chastises The Galatians With Questions; And Righteous Abraham Justified By Faith Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 2, 2023
     | 1,702 views

    It is as if a spell had been cast on the Galatians to cause them to turn to the Law to keep it. Faith preceded the Law and faith supersedes the Law. Paul asked a series of questions to confront them. Abraham, the believer, is given as the great example without the Law but by faith.

    THE BOOK OF GALATIANS – CHAPTER 3:1-9 - MESSAGE 6 – PAUL CHASTISES THE GALATIANS WITH QUESTIONS; AND RIGHTEOUS ABRAHAM JUSTIFIED BY FAITH PART 1.

  • Avoiding A Critical Spirit

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jul 19, 2023
     | 1,999 views

    There is a place for honestly confronting others when done in a loving and gracious way. Yet maturity means learning to guard our hearts from an unhelpful, critical spirit, as we'll learn in this story of Miriam and Aaron's criticism of Moses.

    It’s summertime folks. And the heat of Texas is here. And that heat causes many to be on edge—on edge enough to gripe or complain about the smallest of things. Do we have any complainers here today? This coming November, I will have been pastor here at SEBC for 27 years. Through those years I ...read more

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on Apr 17, 2025
     | 319 views

    The journey to breakthrough is often filled with intense battles, especially at the edge of divine visitation. Many people give up right before their miracle because the pressure increases just before the victory is birthed.
