Heart Transplant

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 21, 2010

God works in our lives much as a surgeon does in our bodies: cleansing thoroughly of old idolatries, assisting us in the transition, and then giving us a new indwelling presence, that of Christ.

Diagnosing The Problem Series

Contributed by Rob Jansons on Sep 14, 2010

This is the "Total Depravity" sermon without using the stock theological labels. It is the first sermon in the series and it's covert because too many of our listens will shut down their receptors when they hear the words "Calvinism."

Culture Clash - Psychic Network Series

Contributed by Peter Loughman on Jan 3, 2010

When everything is theoretical,everyone loves to coexist, everyone celebrates diversity. Interfere with their lifestyle and you become part of the problem, not part of the solution.

Christians are the problem - Christians not part of the solution. Paul and his companions run into ...read more
