    Truly Following Jesus Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Aug 18, 2025
     | 367 views

    There are a variety of reasons why some people follow Jesus - some for benefits, some to slander, some to argue, some bandwagon followers, but what does it take to be a true follower of Jesus?

    It seems like nearly every week I run into people who have some sort of faith. They say that believe in Jesus or at least call themselves Christians, but don’t attend a church. Their faith is very personal, private, and even comfortable. They choose to follow Jesus on their terms, as long as He ...read more

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 6, 2022
     | 4,247 views

    Have you ever had a problem and you get to the place where you just almost start to shout at/to God? Do you want to argue with God a little bit? You say, “God, why don’t You do something?”

    It’s officially summer! The heat is on and the end is out. For many, this is the start of baseball season. A lot of you are big baseball fans – more so than me.

    Dirty Rotten Scoundrels

    Contributed by Andy Almendarez on Mar 22, 2004

     | 5,350 views

    What if our country decided to lower the standards of competition? Anyone who wanted to go to the Olympics and represent our country could go. What would the result be? What if this same idea of lowering standards was done in the church?

    Dirty Rotten Scoundrels Jeremiah 6:12-16 World class athletes train for 10 to 12 hrs a day preparing themselves for their competition. Only a few of these athletes ever make it to the Olympic games. Standards are set and if the athletes don’t reach those standards they aren’t allowed to ...read more

    This is a day of Good News--how can we keep silent?

    “The Four Lucky Lepers” Pastor Bob Leroe, Cliftondale Congregational Church, Saugus, Massachusetts The Aramean (Syrian) Army, led by Ben-Hadad, is waging a siege, a blockade against the city of Samaria.

    "Putting Out A Fleece" (Gideon) Series

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jul 21, 2002
    based on 104 ratings
     | 20,356 views

    Gideon’s asking for a sign has nothing to do with determining God’s will—God already clearly told Gideon what to do. Gideon’s fleece shows his doubt and fear and lack of trust. Gideon didn’t know his own strength.

    “Putting out a Fleece” (Gideon) Pastor Bob Leroe, Cliftondale Congregational Church, Saugus, Massachusetts “Actions have consequences.” This could be the motto of our times, and it certainly would apply to the period of the Judges. In both cases we see people living lawlessly, doing whatever ...read more

    based on 44 ratings
     | 12,460 views

    God frequently trims our resources to get us to depend entirely on Him. When we’re serving in God’s army we become part of the “overwhelming minority.”

    “The Sword of the Lord" Pastor Bob Leroe, Cliftondale Congregational Church, Saugus, Massachusetts Many of us are familiar with the management concept of downsizing—we’re told to “do more with less”. However, nations don’t usually downsize when preparing for war! They mobilize their reserves ...read more

    This sermon is about the church being a place of refreshment, revival, and renewal for the wanderers of life.

    Esau's Choice Reflects His Character

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on May 23, 2003
    based on 114 ratings
     | 21,522 views

    Esau never expressed any repentance for his sinful choices. The Bible says, “If I hide iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me.” (Psa. 66:18,19) Not only did Esau make one bad mistake but for the rest of his life he refused to confess and forsake

    Esau’s Choice – Genesis 25:19-34 Preparation for the Teacher 1. Aim: To lead the people to understand how to avoid making impulsive decisions that they will later regret.

    Contributed by Philip Gill on Feb 26, 2003
    based on 20 ratings
     | 4,405 views

    We pray for a peaceful resolution to the tensions between the US and Iraq and support those working towards that end, but we must consider that for the longer term, military action could be the most compassionate, faithful and courageous response.

    Bringing the Paralytic to Christ: a witness to compassion, faith and courage Then some people came, bringing to him a paralysed man, carried by four of them. And when they could not bring him to Jesus because of the crowd, they removed the roof above him; and after having dug through it, they let ...read more

    Turning Hardship To Joy

    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Jun 24, 2004
    based on 54 ratings
     | 5,724 views

    Sometimes God allows things to get difficult so He can produce greater joy in and through and with us. Jesus knew that His Father often used tragedy to cause people to look to heaven for solutions to their problems.

    John 15:11-16 Illustration: A cynic asked an elderly believer who had endured great physical pain for 20 years, "What do you think of your God now?" The godly sufferer replied, "I think of Him more than ever." Sorrow can be the means of bringing us heart-to-heart with God. When repeated strokes ...read more

    Joy is more than happiness.

    This morning we begin with a musical experiment. I need three volunteers to see if we can get these glasses of water to “sing.” (Select volunteers). As our volunteers rubbed the top edge, the water vibrated. You could hear the vibrations that came across as sound. If you would have looked closely, ...read more

    When I told friends and acquaintances in Minnesota that I was moving to New Jersey, one of the commonest responses was, "How close will you be to Atlantic City?" This seemed to me to be an odd reaction, it certainly isn't something I'm particularly attuned to.
