     | 3,689 views

    Jesus used money and things to illustrate a spiritual point because everyone understands money. So if the kingdom of heaven is so valuable, why doesn’t everybody do everything they can to be a part of it? I think it’s because value is often in the eye o

    I have always been a car nut. When I was fourteen I asked my dad if he was going to buy me a car when I turned 16. He told me that if I wanted a car, I had better start saving for one. So I did.

    We would all like to discover the power/miracles/works of God; but how?

    Introduction I. When you read scripture, aren’t you sometimes just amazed at the miracles God has done. II. I really enjoy reading the Old Testament, A.

    Hate your parents, spouse, kids??? What is going on here in Luke 14? Before we decided to change the Word of God, consider the unthinkable with me for a bit. It might just open our eyes to a deeper understanding of who Jesus is.

    (If you rate this sermon please offer helpful comments, God bless, Greg) When was the last time you said something that you really didn’t mean? What if I got up here and said, “If anyone comes to this church and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters ...read more

    The Trouble With Being Righteous Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,464 views

    Living under the blessing of grace we need to be reminded that a life of righteousness follows our salvation. A righteous life is difficult to live in an unrighteous society.

    THE TROUBLE WITH BEING RIGHTEOUS “All of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags…” (Isaiah 64:6). The subject of righteousness is very disturbing for a number of reasons. First of all, “righteousness” is not a word we use very much in our ...read more

    We come to know God by obeying Him.

    I’d like to begin by telling you a little story about something that happened to me this week. I took the minivan in for an oil change at the Chrysler dealer.

    Risk It

    Contributed by Bradford Robinson on Nov 8, 2005
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,923 views

    Life is not about playing it safe, nor is the Christian faith. Faith requires that we take risk, just like Peter took a risk stepping out of the boat.

    Many of you might remember the Lethal Weapons movies of a few years back. In these movies there was a good safe cop who did things conservatively, by the book, who wasn’t in to taking unnecessary risks. Then there was the character played by Mel Gibson who was always taking risks. He would jump ...read more

    A look at the paralized man at the pool of Bethesda.

    Caught in a hurricane or the aftermath of one… how would you cope if you lost everything? Folks do rally, but one wonders how we’d react. Surely some simply cave in.
