    The Three "bears” And Goldilocks (Sermon About Bearing Burdens)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Nov 30, 2022
     | 3,662 views

    Most folks have heard about the fairy tale of the “Three Bears” and Goldilocks.

    We all know a fairy tale is not real, but I want to talk to you about THREE “BEARS” that the Word of God teaches us about. The Bible has 3 interesting statements about our burdens. 1) First one is found in Galatians 6:5, "Each one should bear his own burden." 2) Second one is ...read more

    Songs We Sing: "must Jesus Bear The Cross Alone" Series

    Contributed by Troy Borst on Mar 5, 2025
     | 601 views

    The song we will focus on is the worst hymn that has ever been produced (IN MY OPINION). Why is this hymn the worst? This hymn is the worst because it teaches incorrect theology about Jesus Christ.

    SONGS WE SING: ‘MUST JESUS BEAR THE CROSS ALONE?’ 1 Peter 2:21-25, Matthew 16:24-25 #BadBadHymn SING ‘MUST JESUS BEAR THE CROSS ALONE’ INTRODUCTION This morning we are continuing a sermon series called: “The Songs We Sing.” Part of worshipping God is singing. It is not the only part, but is a ...read more

    Jesus’ command that we pick up our cross and follow him is a choice, and a choice that doesn’t come without sacrifice, but also bring sjoy and fulfillment

    There’s the story of a soldier frantically digging in during battle as shells fall all around him. Suddenly his hand feels something metal and he grabs it. It’s a silver cross. Another shell explodes and he buries his head in his arms. He feels someone jump in the foxhole with him and he looks over ...read more

    Whoever desires to come after me (1)let him deny himself, (2)take up his cross, and (3)follow me.

    The Cross You Carry (Mk.15:16-22; Mk.8:34) During Lent we come face to face with the cross Christ died upon to save us from our sins. I preach about it, we read Scripture describing it, hymns we sing talk about it; each Sunday morning we face it ...read more

     | 8,238 views

    Jesus had revealed much about the difficulty and opposition the disciples would face as they sought to serve Him. Finally, He revealed their service would also require personal sacrifice - it would come at a cost.

    The Cost to Serve Matthew 10: 34-39 Jesus had revealed much to the disciples regarding what they could expect as they answered the call to proclaim the Good News. He warned that the task would not be easy, many would reject them, and they would face opposition along the way. However, in the midst ...read more

    Whoa! Man Of The Night: A Dialogue Between Jesus And Nicodemus

    Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Aug 2, 2013
     | 5,421 views

    Being born again is a far more demanding matter than a casual acceptance of Jesus Christ. The true Christian follows Him, bearing his/her cross.

    Whoa! Man of the Night John 3:1-21 Rev. Mark A. Barber Most of us have heard the story of Nicodemus before and can quote John 3:16 from memory. We have heard about being born again. So we think we already know the story. Nicodemus came to Jesus that night thinking he knew the rules of how one ...read more

    It Is Going To Cost You Something

    There are no free rides in the calling of God. One must be decided and determined to get on board and pay the fare.

    It is going to cost something. Luke 9:57-62 Jesus and the disciples have left Samaria in route to Jerusalem. 2 Men sought to follow Jesus of their own accord. 1 Man was asked to Jesus to follow him. Jesus does not candy coat the calling of the ministry. He warns us up front that there is a ...read more

     | 4,103 views

    In order to be a true Christian, one must embrace both the Person of Jesus and the Work of Jesus on the cross and in his resurrection.

    Bi-Polar Peter (Mark 8:27-33) 1. The term “Bi-Polar” often brings to mind a condition many suffer with, previously known as being “manic-depressive.” 2. But the term Bi-Polar often refers to a set of two extremes. Two sets of bi-polar tastes make up the foundation of ...read more

     | 4,474 views

    When we walk with Jesus, our lives are filled with meaning and rich. But the Christian life is not an easy life, forcing us to first count the cost as we evaluate the following facts.

    The Realities of Discipleship (Mark 8: 34-38, Psalm 49 and Daniel 7:13-14) 1. The Sunday School teacher taught her class, “The wicked kings and queens of the Bible thought no one or nothing was more powerful than they were.

    There can be no preaching apart from the cross. The preaching of the cross is the power of God unto salvation. This sermon reminds the believer that ultimate knowledge is knowing Christ and Him cruicified.

    Introduction: The greatest event in human history is the death of our Saviour upon that old rugged cross. I didn’t say the cross of Christ because the cross was the sinner’s cross and Christ had none. In our text, the Apostle Paul wrote to the Corinthians, "I resolved to know nothing while I was ...read more
