    Jesus told Mary that doing good had stopped her from doing the best. Doing good is not enough. God wants us to choose THDE BEST PART.

    Choosing the Best Part Luke 10:38-42 You are very familiar with today’s story... Jesus is visiting at the home of Lazarus and his sisters, Martha and Mary. The Bible shows us that Jesus loved this family very much and loved to stay there as often as he had a chance. We know how much Jesus loved ...read more

    At The Feet Of Jesus

    Contributed by Greg Warren on Mar 19, 2013

     | 14,505 views

    This sermon was a part of a series I did during our church's annual 21-day church-wide fast. We were looking at different elements of a fast. This message focuses on a fast as a time to simply sit at the feet of Jesus and enjoy His presence.

    Today I want to take a closer look at the life of a woman we meet in the Bible. She seems to have this “intimacy with God” thing figured out about as well as anyone. Her name is Mary. And the interesting thing about Mary is where you often find her in relation to Jesus in various ...read more

    LIFE ENCOUNTER IS - ➊ RARE - Spared Not ➋ COSTLY - Delivered Him Up ➌ OBTAINABLE - Give Us

    Rom. 8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

    There are those who think they have to do everything themselves and then there are those who realize that worshiping God is where we begin to serve.

    TITLE: Doers and Dreamers TEXT: Luke 10:38-42 INTRO: Continuing with our survey of incidents that are unique to Luke's Gospel, we come to a story about two sisters with very different personalities and how they interacted with Jesus.

    Both of these women, Rahab and Ruth leave the worship and devotion to their false gods, their idols, and their devotion to sin and accept the GOD of Israel. They, just like the Pilgrims, flee a place that has them in a type of bondage and pursue a GOD tha

    Breaking Our Flask

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 1, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,924 views

    Some people, like Judas, are ignoring God's call, as they are too busy making their life in this world secure. Like the woman who broke her alabaster flask, we must break our flesh so the good things of God can pour out of us.

    Henry Ward Beecher once said, “In this world it is not what we take up, but what we give up, that makes us rich.”(1) Our passages of Scripture for this morning speak of sacrifice. One definition of sacrifice is “to offer to God in homage or worship,” and another one is “to destroy, surrender, or ...read more

    In the midst of all the 'worship wars', it is important to buld a biblical foundation for worship.

    “The Word on Worship: The Great Engagement Party” Leviticus 9:1-14 & Isaiah 6:1-8 During my sophomore year in college I learned that worship – which was instituted, commanded, and ordained by God – could be a real battle ground. Stunned as I was, it was good preparation for ...read more

    Extravagant Magnification Series

    Contributed by Curry Pikkaart on May 7, 2012
     | 9,242 views

    Magnification is useful because it enlarges the object of our attention. It's what we do in worship every week.

    “EXTRAVAGANT MAGNIFICATION” Is. 6:1-8 & Revelation 4:1-11 Even though it’s not used as frequently as it used to be, I still like a magnifying glass. It takes something that’s hard to see and makes it bigger. It brings the word or subject into clearer focus so I can see it ...read more

    Worship is a key element to a Christian's life. It is the life-blood of a congregation. It could provide us with a unifying, uplifting experience. We must see it in the right light.

    1. You’re the Preacher! A mother watched her son begin to drain of energy as the week went on. By the end of the week he’d lost his desire to get out of bed. She heard the alarm go off through his bedroom door. Apparently he just kept punching the little snooze button on the top. ...read more

    What does it mean to be a New Testament believer? Most, sit in Church every week with their mouths closed, maybe, maintaining a facade of respectability. Moreover, that might be our problem, most think and act as though praise and worship is about coming
