    Paul in this passage gives one of the most profound counter cultural statements ever said, "to live is Christ, and to die is gain!" In this sermon we are going to examine what Paul meant by those words and how putting Christ first is the key to joy and rejoicing in Lord's presence!

    Paul’s Life Testimony Philippians 1:18b-26 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 While the Christian life is filled with a few glorious mountain tops to stand upon to review one’s blessings and spiritual fruit, far too often one finds oneself in the trenches of trials, ...read more

    No matter what, true, Godly worship cannot be manufactured. Worship cannot be organized just because someone on a stage is encouraging you to participate.

    THE YEAR OF WORSHIP Lakeview Baptist Church Sermon Series: "Worship" January 7, 2024 Scripture: Romans 11:33-36 Romans 11:33-36 O the depth of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! how unsearchable are his judgments, and his ways past finding out! 34 For who hath known the ...read more

    How connected are you to the Lord? Are you prayers vital?

    Series - Maximum Impact “Live for maximum impact! Make a difference!” is what the Lord has been saying to me this month! There is a world that is being devastated by sin all around us. I don’t want to rehearse all the evidences of the brokenness for I know that you know it well. I also ...read more

    Do you revisit old sins? Did you know that God has forgotten them purposefully and it would be wrong to go over and over them? Learn about freedom from guilt in the once for all sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

    Have you ever been in a contract dispute? Maybe charges got put on your account that you feel aren’t yours or aren’t fair. I had a situation recently with an agreement that I signed an extension on - and the other party and I discussed the changes and then I signed the document I received. Little ...read more

    In this sermon I try to follow the flow of comfort and directives as Paul uses it in his directives to the Ephesians to live as children of Light.

    February 27, 2005 Ephesians 5:8-14 8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light 9 (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) 10 and find out what pleases the Lord. 11 Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds ...read more

    Jesus bore the full weight of our sin so we will never have to.

    I. After His Triumphal Entry into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday, not as the Warrior King they wanted and were expecting, but as the Lamb of God, Jesus now moves deliberately to His destiny with His death on the Cross on Friday. Even though He knew what was going to happen to Him this week, as He ...read more

    Message based on Jesus’ words regarding the Sabbath.

    Jesus and the Sabbath Matthew 12:1-21 March 26, 2006 Introduction What do you think of when you think of the word, “Sabbath?” Do you think of church? Do you think of rest? Football on TV?

    A Christian cannot remain unmoved by the pain in the world.

    We’re all familiar with the term compassion fatigue. Do you suppose there’s a related phenomenon called disaster fatigue? We hadn’t even recovered from Katrina when Rita showed up on her heels. I have to confess that I’m tired of watching. But I, at least, have the luxury of being able to turn ...read more

    To prepare for Easter we must not go straight to the cross and the resurrection but remember that the battle for Easter was fought and won in the Garden of Gethsemane

    Preparing for Easter (Matthew 26:36-46) If Easter were to have a logo – it would be most associated with bunny rabbits, and chocolate eggs, chocolate coins, in fact chocolate anything. And for many chocoholics after 4 months of famine since the Christmas gluttony, Easter comes as a welcome ...read more

     | 25,744 views

    Jesus gives His disciples some signs to look for in the end times - but not so they would focus on the signs, but so that they wouldn’t panic and would do the Master’s will instead

    Today we’re going to study the end times. No, I’m not going to set a date for Jesus’ return. No, I’m not going to answer all questions about the Tribulation or the Rapture. But what we are going to see is what Jesus tells us to think about the last days. And it might actually surprise you. 1 As ...read more

    Paul had one great aim and purpose of life. To this singleness of purpose he owed his exemplary godliness and his uncommon success as a minister.

    We have here a very personal letter written by the Apostle Paul. What I mean by that is simply that Paul shares a lot of himself in this letter. He shares with us his thoughts and attitudes as he talks about his past and present circumstances and the hopes he embraces concerning his future. I ...read more
