    I talk about what we need to know and understand when we lose someone we love.

    Intro: Sometimes we face great loses in our lives. Today I want to talk about losing someone we care about. Let’s face it—people die. They die unexpectantly, they die too young. They die needlessly, because of the acts of another. They die naturally. People we always thought would be around…then ...read more

    Jesus is Lord, not a legend, a liar or a lunatic.

    Since Christmas is in the air, we will resume our series on “Our Best Life Now” next year, which is just a month from now. Second, I will have a different preaching approach this morning. Instead of a verse-by-verse exposition of the Bible which I usually do, I would present a topical defense of ...read more

    Hatred is a dark, violent, selfish emotion that can destroy the human heart even the best of them. Hatred has a way of taking root within us like no other emotion can. It twists our thinking and speaking until all that spews out of us are dark sentences

    War In The Heart Series

     | 2,877 views

    Paul describes the effect of living under the rule of the Mosaic law.

    Is the law then contrary to the promises of God? Certainly not! For if a law had been given that could give life, then righteousness would indeed be by the law. But Scripture imprisoned everything under sin, so that the promise by faith in Jesus Christ might be given to those who believe (Galatians ...read more

    Through the prophet Jeremiah, God told the people to remember how they had been cared for and loved, and not to go after other gods who could not offer salvation.

    Don’t Forget Who You Are Jeremiah 2:4-13 September 2, 2007 I thought long and hard about admitting this to you today. But I remember the day well. It was Monday, July 30; the day that the divorce of Britney Spears and K-Fed became final. I saw that on the internet and got sucked in. The ...read more

    The gestures of worship - lifting up holy hands in praise - must be in sync with the gestures of holy living.

    Gesture Theology Ephesians 5:15-20 August 20, 2006 I remember the very first sermon I ever preached. It was at License to Preach School down at DePauw University during the summer of 1972, between my freshman and sophomore years in college.

     | 4,659 views

    An encouraging (but reforming) sermon for people who are ’gay’ but not happy.

    Today, I will be using the term ‘gay’ in both its original form and its contemporary form, so let me define it both ways for you this morning. Originally, GAY meant: to be characterized by colorful and lighthearted excitement: MERRY. As in, “Have a GAY day!” In the old days, wishing your neighbor ...read more

    Did He really do all those things the Bible claims He did?

    Something’s been bothering me since the seventh grade and now’s a good time to get it off my chest. It’s about God. About His abilities actually. Did He really do all those things the Bible claims He did? It was in seventh grade that the question first came up. Until then I just assumed that God ...read more

    Sunday Morning

     | 8,680 views

    When the people of the Bible gathered together, it was to BRING worship to God. Somehow, today, we seem to think we come to church on Sunday Morning to GET something from God. Shouldn’t we be GIVING thanks instead?

    Invocation: God, you who created the eye for seeing, the ear for hearing, and the mind for thinking, be here with us in our worship. Help us through your Spirit to hear your word and discover new and vibrant ways to live in your abundant mercies. Help us Lord to see Your presence at work all around ...read more

    The Inspiration Of Scripture Series

    Contributed by Rich Anderson on Feb 14, 2011

     | 12,107 views

    Only 26% of the adult population believes that the Bible, the Word of God, is inspired, is infallible and is inerrant. These three aspects are vitally important in understanding the Bible.

    The Holy Bible was written over a fifteen-hundred year span, by forty different authors from every walk of life. It was written by kings, servants, fishermen, poets, doctors, herdsmen and even a tax collector. It was written on three different continents, Europe, Asia and Africa in sixteen ...read more
