Sermons on Cry Out:

Poured Out Series

Contributed by David Rumley on Apr 16, 2009

Do we train ourselves and fill ourselves in life so that we are ready to be poured out? Or are we always looking to be poured into? We must come to church to learn how to "be the church" not just attend a building somewhere.

Poured Out … ready to be poured out Coming to church ready to be the church Colossians 3: 12 Therefore, as God’s chosen people, holy and dearly loved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. 13 Bear with each other and forgive whatever grievances you may have ...read more

Out Of Sequence

Contributed by Johnny Wilson on May 25, 2009

When some teenagers asked me a question about the relationship between baptism and the Holy Spirit, it forced me to rethink some of my assumptions. Here’s how I presented to them.

It’s interesting to note that when we take certain verses out of their context, we end up creating our own systems to replace God’s “system.” God’s system is called covenant or relationship. Our systems tend to be what we can control. But, of course, we aren’t the ones in control when God is ...read more

Out Of The Saltshaker

Contributed by Mark Opperman on Jun 10, 2008

God wants to flavor us with His goodness so we can let others taste and see that He is good. Salty Christians are authentic, maintain their flavor, and aren’t afraid of change.

Out of the Salt Shaker Matthew 5:13 “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled by men.” Intro: Did you know that salt is a miracle? It’s composed of 2 poisons: ...read more

In Or Out Of The Fort?

Contributed by Marty Roark on Jul 4, 2008

Tear It Out! Series

Contributed by Gary Stebbins on Sep 30, 2008

"Jesus presents a clear description of what it is followers are to be like internally and how they are to live outwardly in the Sermon on the Mount."

Sermon on the Mount- Pt 6 Tear It Out! In the SOTM it seems that Jesus has boiled down His teachings to that which is of prime importance. The SOTM makes GOOD seem really GOOD. It inspires to believe in- possibility of a better world. It also reminds us of our lack of commitment to the principles ...read more

Time Out

Contributed by J Bernard Taylor on Sep 30, 2008

Just as the ball players take time out from the game, we must take time out to spend with God.We take time out for rest and refreshment. We take time out for reflection before we return to the game. We finally take time out to receive our reward.

All of us have seen it many times on our television screens or in person. Ten men rush frantically up and down the basketball court. Suddenly the piercing shriek of a whistle is heard above the roar of the crowd and someone shouts “Time Out”. Or picture a baseball diamond. It is a crucial ...read more

Time Out

Contributed by Bruce Willis on Dec 21, 2006

This sermon teaches how we are to look at eternal life from the perspective of The Exchanged Life.

How do you think about “eternal life”? I think that most people believe that eternal life is an extension of or a continuation of their life. They believe that when they accepted Christ as their personal Savior, God attached an extension on to their life that began say in 1956 as mine did. ...read more
