     | 5,074 views

    God has an arsenal of tools or weapons at His disposal to mold and shape believers, as well as to draw unbelievers to Himself. This arsenal might even include bigger and better rattlesnakes.

    Stewardship is not only about how we manage our money; but we are also stewards of how we manage our tongues. The powerful influence of our words is examined in the light of James’ exhortation.

    10/11ths of Jesus’ earthly sojourn was spent in obscurity in Nazareth. What do we learn from this?

    In this sermon we learn how Joseph was able to resist the challenging temptation he faced from Potiphar's wife.

    Introduction: A. Let me begin by asking you: “What is it that is most tempting to you?” 1. I think it is funny to watch cats stare at a fish bowl or a bird cage – it is so representative of temptation’s attraction. 2. When I was a kid we had cats and they would sit and ...read more

    This is the sermon I preached at my cousin’s funeral. There were many there who was living in sin including gang members. It was the first time I’ve ever had to preach a funeral where there was doubt about the person’s salvation.

    Contributed by Troy Borst on Jul 19, 2009
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,213 views

    I believe that Jesus points out three aspects of love that combined together form a complete love for our lives. We should love God, love others, and love ourselves… these three are components of complete love.

    Why Are We Here? Series

    Contributed by Brad Bailey on Jul 22, 2009
     | 5,151 views

    The very reason we gather is in response to the Divine call of God and His purposes. The problem is that the ideas we associate with “church” can come to mean so much less.

    Why are you here? That’s the question I want to begin with today. We might naturally divide that question as to whether it refers to being here in terms of existing… or being here in this gathering. I’m referring to BOTH our purpose for being here in terms of existing… as well as being ...read more

    How To Handle Anxiety And Worry

    Contributed by Larry Moyer on Aug 5, 2009
    based on 46 ratings
     | 46,902 views

    God does not want us to worry. He’s given us biblical examples of his power and control, and He’s even volunteered to handle things for us. This message explains how we can avoid the "What If" syndrome and leave the worrying to God.

    Medical doctors estimate that more than 25% of their patients are what they have called the "worried well." Doctors spend a great chunk of time examining people who are not sick. They are only worried. Worry is the diet of our day. We are plagued by that "What if?" problem. What if my car was ...read more
