    Roaming In The Wilderness

    Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Sep 27, 2021
     | 2,778 views

    The wilderness is not a pleasant place to be, but when one is lost in the wilderness; death is almost certain. The wilderness of life can be cruel, but God is able to deliver all who trust in him.

    TEXT: Genesis 21:14 "So Abraham got up early the next morning, prepared food and a container of water, and strapped them on Hagar’s shoulders. Then he sent her away with their son, and she wandered aimlessly in the wilderness of Beersheba." THE WILDERNESD The desert or wilderness is not ...read more

    A single cruel comment online can crush a heart. A careless word can shatter confidence. But one word of encouragement—spoken in love, rooted in Christ—can change a life.

    Go! And Build One Another Up: Living as Encouragers in a Discouraged World - 1 Thessalonians 5:11 1 Thessalonians 5:11 (NLT): “So encourage each other and build each other up, just as you are already doing.” Introduction: The Power of a Word in a World of Wounds We live in a world that tears ...read more

    3 Crosses @ Calvary

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 15, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,488 views

    This incident, on the road to Calvary, and then at the sight of the crucifixion, reveals both God and man as they truly are. It exposes man as incredibly cruel, and God as amazingly kind and compassionate. It is man who is evil, and God who is good.

    Opening illustration: If you were to look at Rembrandt’s painting of The Three Crosses, your attention would be drawn first to the center cross on which Jesus died. Then as you would look at the crowd gathered around the foot of that cross, you’d be impressed by the various facial expressions and ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,698 views

    This message afirms the reliability of the New Testament against the arguments that the Crowds, Disciples and Early Church just made it all up.

    IS THE BIBLE RELIABLE? The preacher stood on the street corner preaching to anyone who would listen. A man approached him who looked like he had lived on the street forever. "Can I help you" asked the preacher. "I think you can" said the bum. "Would you like me to tell you about Jesus?" "No." ...read more

    Father, Forgive Them Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Mar 7, 2022
     | 6,423 views

    Jesus prayed for His murders. He prayed for the very people who were His cruelest enemies. "Father, forgive them" is for the very ones who are doing unimaginable cruel things to Him.

    Jesus hung on the cross for six agonizing hours before succumbing to the torture of crucifixion through asphyxiation. During that time, Jesus made seven statements on the cross recorded in the four gospels of the New Testament. Each of these statements is significant and worthy of every drop of ...read more

     | 16,670 views

    Do you have the faith to press on through the crowd, to come into the presence of Jesus, and be changed forever?

    Faith that Presses On Matt 9:20-22 As always, in order for us to get the whole account of what is going on in an event in the life of Christ, it is often necessary for us to travel to the other gospels for help. You can find this story in the gospel of Matthew, Mark, and Luke. Jesus was ...read more

    Do you know what you are singing this day? Or are you like the crowds on Palm Sunday?

    I DON’T KNOW WHAT I’M SINGING! (Mark 11:1-10) Have you ever found yourself singing a song, but really, you had no idea what you were singing? I was a teacher at a high school for a year, and as I walked down the hallway one morning I could hear one of my students singing a song. It was a song I ...read more

    Why did the crowd turn on Jesus so quickly between Palm Sunday and Good Friday?

    Something about the story of Jesus’ life during the days between Palm Sunday and Good Friday has always bothered me. How could this crowd of people who so passionately loved, respected, and praised Jesus on Sunday change their minds so quickly? In a mere five days, we will read how this same ...read more

     | 11,896 views

    The posture of an unnamed woman in an innumerable crowd becomes the portrait of a worshipper who moves the heart of God.

    I. Touch (If I may touch) To see this woman you need to look low. Look down. That’s where she lives. Low to the ground. Low on the priority list. Los on the social scale. She’s low. Can you see it? Her hand? Gnarled. Thin. Diseased. Dirt blackens the nails and stains the skin. Look ...read more

    It is good to follow the crowds who listen to the Gospel, but it is better to follow the Jesus whom we preach!

    THE MESSAGE FROM THE RIVER JORDAN. Mark 1:1-15. There is a huge geological fault in the earth’s surface separating ancient Judah from the mountains of Moab.
