  • The Indispensable Light Of Christ Series

    Contributed by Ron Tuit on Oct 27, 2015
     | 8,002 views

    Jesus gives His second sermon on "The I AM's of Jesus" in the context of the Feast of Tabernacles. There is a great significance in His choice to bring this message, "I am the light of the World" at the closing of this feast.

    THE INDISPENSABLE LIGHT Of CHRIST (John 8:12-20) Did you ever consider the fact that the Lord Jesus gave sermons? Much of what Jesus taught concerned the witness of Himself. One of the sermon series that Jesus preached is the “I AM” sayings of Jesus, which were emphatic ...read more

    A in-depth look at James Chapter one encouraging the reader to view the book of James in full context. This entire series is also available as an IBOOK via ITUNES for the nominal cost of $4.95

    Introduction James is my favorite book of the Bible. I have always been drawn to its practical approach and straightforward method of approaching the subject of living one’s faith. James doesn’t spend a lot of time discussing doctrine, though the book is full of doctrinal concepts. Instead, ...read more

    Beyond our three decades of ministry, and in spite of the terrors of this world, we have great reason to rejoice in the Lord! (Context of sermon: Preached on our Congregation's Rally Day and 30th Anniversary.)

    [Singing] “This is the day / This is the day / That the Lord has made / That the Lord has made / I will rejoice / I will rejoice / And be glad in it / And be glad in it!” I worked at a camp in Wisconsin one summer, and we sang this song every day. Every. Sin-gle. Morning. It was the ...read more

  • Romans 6:23: "a Badly Misunderstood Verse" Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Dec 15, 2021
     | 2,755 views

    Romans 6:23 contrasts the ultimate fate of people who live as slaves to Sin, and those who live as slaves to God. The sermon reads 6:23 in the larger context of chapter 6.

    When I was a teenager, my youth group taught me something called the Romans Road, which was designed as a tool to help me tell people the good news about Jesus. Romans 6:23 is part of the Romans Road. Let's start by just reading it, in the ESV: 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the ...read more

  • Implications Of Raising Lazarus

    Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Mar 27, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,689 views

    There are many questions surrounding the raising of Lazarus from the dead by Jesus. The sermon is designed for Passion Sunday but can be easily adapted as it explains the context surrounding 'why Jesus had to die'

    Implications of raising Lazarus When I go to the gym and join classes I always keep an eye on the clock. I like to know when it’s halfway- if it’s a hard class I’ve endured the 1st half, and downhill now to the end. Similarly if it’s a boring class. half way- not long to go now. Half way - ...read more

  • Open Your Heart's Door To Jesus Series

    Contributed by Jerry Smith on Mar 18, 2021
     | 4,024 views

    Many people have used this verse evangelically; however, its true context is for Christians. Jesus is speaking to the Church members of Laodicea to let Him into their life for fellowship and worship and not only religious pretense.

    This is my last message on the theme of doors in the Bible. Our text is Revelation 3:20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and he with me. (I put on screen pictures of painting - artist depictions of this ...read more

    As I said in the last lesson, the purpose of this series is to help us discover how to read and study the Bible. Last time our lesson was the on the purpose of Bible study. And we came to the conclusion that the ultimate purpose of Bible study is personal change for the glory of God. And I hope you ...read more

  • Jesus And The Temple

    Contributed by Geoffrey Foot on Mar 13, 2018
     | 9,593 views

    Why did Jesus lose His temper in the Temple when He saw the traders and money changers there? The context explains everything - they were on the take! Jesus was a danger to their profits and had to go.

    The temple John 2:13-25 The reading we have just heard from John's gospel might seem rather strange especially as it is at the start of his gospel; but ironically the synoptic gospels have this incident in the temple at the start of His last week just after His triumphant entry into Jerusalem - ...read more

    Message introduces study of book of Zechariah focusing on THEME and HISTORICAL CONTEXT. Zechariah's message is highly relevant today. As theme suggests, it is a message of hope for God's people!

    Today I want to begin opening the book of Zechariah to you. For all practical purposes, this book and other minor prophets are closed books for most Christians. During our annual reading of the Bible, we read the words, but there is a vast difference between reading words and comprehending the ...read more

    Contributed by Amiri Hooker on Aug 12, 2022
     | 2,237 views

    How is God calling us to address grapes gone wild in our contexts? Be mindful, however. Jesus did this in his opening homily in Nazareth after reading from this very book, Isaiah.

    based on 57 ratings
     | 11,183 views

    This sermon sets out to examine Mk 12:13-17 not in terms on Church-State relationships but rather by illucidating its socio-religious context and its application for God’s image bearers today.

    EMPIRES IN COLLISION: CHRIST AND CAESAR Mark 12:13-17 13 And they sent to him some of the Pharisees and some of the Herodians, to trap him in his talk. 14 And they came and said to him, “Teacher, we know that you are true and do not care about anyone’s opinion. For you are not swayed by ...read more

  • Is "Sex" A Dirty Word? Series

    Contributed by Darryl Klassen on Jan 18, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,654 views

    Why can’t we talk about sex in the context of Christian marriage? Does sex belong to the world or to God? Where does our sexuality come from and when are desires a good thing?

    IS “SEX” A DIRTY WORD? Some time ago I watched a movie called “Arabesque” in which Gregory Peck plays a stodgy professor of hieroglyphics. He is explaining the various symbols on a chart and how to interpret them. The lecture is dry and anything but captivating. In fact a young man is nearly ...read more
