    When a serious believer goes beyond the call of duty and expends himself or herself to the glory of God, others are motivated to expend themselves for God.

    Motivation by Example (Philippians 1:12-18) 1. One of the big challenges within American Evangelicalism is staying motivated. We become bored and lose our enthusiasm. • Boredom is always a contemporary issue: The Rev. Dr. Robert South, while preaching one day in 1689, looked up from his notes to ...read more

    St Matthew’s Day: The call of Matthew is a reminder that Jesus calls outsiders. Fortunately, Jesus turns the tables on us, turning everyone into an outsider, called to follow him.

    May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be pleasing in your sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen Have you ever wondered, why did Matthew get up? I don’t mean, why did he get up in the morning to go to work. Why did Matthew get up... and follow Jesus? I once saw ...read more

    Jesus’ experience at Mt Olives demonstrates his voluntary submission to crucifixion and how we are to handle a "No" answer to prayer. He demonstrates his humanity in his grief as he walks the path from Anxiety to Acceptance.

    Hope Community Church February 8, 2004 Bro. Chris Hill Contemporary American culture values the independent thinker who can make quick decisions. I have even read in some of my leadership material that a true leader is not somebody who can make a good decision but one can make any decision. In ...read more

    The resurrection is the foundation on which the gospel is built and as long as we have this foundation, we are free from fear and have reason to hope. Found here in chapter fifteen are the reasons why I have taken my stand on the gospel of Christ.

    THE GOSPEL ON WHICH I STAND © 2001 Mark Beaird Text: I Corinthians 15: 1-24 The Apostle Paul begins chapter 15 by addressing a group of Christians who had been hearing others teach that there was no resurrection of the dead.

    There are many types of churches today. Some are doing great things for God. Others...well, they just need to be reminded of their purpose. This message is a challenge to churches of all denominations to refocus upon what God has called them to do.

    When Jesus says, "A time is coming and now has come when true worshippers will worship the Lord in spirit and in truth," he was giving us some insights into worship.

    “Worship” John 4:7-23 If you were to ask 100 people what worship is, you’d probably get 100 different answers. The primary reason for this would be the wide range of backgrounds and experiences. Another reason for such a wide range of views of worship is the never-ending list of “worship ...read more

    Working out conflict between science and Genesis Creation account.

    Many people now believe the creation account in Genesis is a charming myth with no evidence for validation.
