    This morning we are going to talk about the two men who were crucified along side of Jesus.

    “Which Side of the Cross Are You On?” Luke 23:32-33 OPENING JOKE: Can’t Take That Chance During a holiday to Israel, a man’s mother-in-law died. She was in Israel with the family, so there was the difficulty of making funeral arrangements for her in a foreign country. The Israeli morgue explained ...read more

    This sermon can be done as a drama with Onesimus as the speaker. You can use a copy of Philemon as prop and use it to read the sections of the letter if you don’t have time to memorize them.

    Good Morning! What a beautiful day it is down here on the docks. I hope you are going on an exciting journey. I know I am. I am headed to Colossae with Tychicus over there.

    What does it mean to be a "good soldier of Christ Jesus?" (2 Timothy 2:2) What are the requirements, commitments and benefits?

    2 Timothy 2:1-7 “You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. And the things you have heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others. “Endure hardship with us like a good soldier of Christ ...read more

    The Darkest Day Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Aug 8, 2012
    based on 7 ratings
     | 7,266 views

    The death of Jesus Christ is at the same time the deepest darkest day in human history and the beginning of the most promising era in human history. Though the physical agony great, the spiritual agony was even greater for our Lord.

    Mark chapter 15 contains three main elements—the time before Pilate, the crucifixion, and the burial. All of Jesus’ life and His entire three-year public ministry focused toward this point. It is mankind’s darkest hour but is the beginning of a turning point in the history of the ...read more

    Words uttered at the end of a man's life take on extra significance. What did our Lord say in His final moments? And what do they speak to us today?

    Luke 23:26-34 NIV 26 As they led him away, they seized Simon from Cyrene, who was on his way in from the country, and put the cross on him and made him carry it behind Jesus. 27 A large number of people followed him, including women who mourned and wailed for him. 28 Jesus turned and said to ...read more

    The Crown Of Suffering Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 19, 2018
     | 5,062 views

    The scourging Jesus endured would have been unimaginably horrific, but His suffering was from over. Following the merciless beating, Jesus was then subjected to ridicule and mockery. All of this was done for you and me!

    The Crown of Suffering Mark 15: 16-21 Our last study ended with a gripping statement: And so Pilate, willing to content the people, released Barabbas unto them, and delivered Jesus, when he had scourged him, to be crucified. It doesn’t reveal much detail. We are merely told that Jesus was ...read more

    A sermon about humility.

    “Who’s Number One?” Mark 9:33-37 I love that the writers of the Gospels included this story. It teaches us so much, and it also holds a mirror up to me—perhaps to all of us as human beings. There is no place for judgment here, for who of us hasn’t found ourselves vying for the best places, ...read more

    The Question Of The Cross

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Apr 4, 2023
     | 1,163 views

    Everyone who was there, at the cross, had a question, except the ones who were sure they already had the answers.. . What’s going on? What am I doing here? Who is that man, anyway? What am I going to do?

    Were you there when they crucified my Lord? They were all people just like us, you know. It might just have well have been we who were there, not them. It would all have happened just the same. Were you one of the ones that hadn’t really been paying attention? Were you one of the curious ...read more

     | 2,532 views

    The Cross of Jesus made a difference for BARABBAS, for THE DYING THIEF, and for the CENTURION. It changed their lives, their direction, and gave them a vision of eternity. Has the Cross of Jesus made a change in your life?
