    Satan doesn’t want you to think about spiritual things. Rather, he only wants us to dwell on our own selfish desires. Avoid the temptation to delay any thoughts of spiritual self-examination, and make it a priority to encourage others for self-examination

In fact the enemy will try to subdue the adversary so that they succumb to defeat. The information that they ...read more

    Self-denial and spiritual discipline are not popular topics in today’s culture. But a Christianity without a cross is not Christianity at all. This sermon launches a fifty day focus on spiritual disciplines.

    Disciples with Discipline (Fifty Days of Consecration #1) 1 Corinthians 9:24-27[1] 3-20-05 Introduction This morning we want to prepare for the Fifty Days of Consecration that begins next Sunday.

    In the short story of Levi’s call, we find that no one is too sinful to be beyond the grace and love of Jesus.

    WHY DOES HE EAT AND DRINK WITH PUBLICANS AND SINNERS? Text: Mark 2:13 – 22 Introduction: • How would you feel if we put a sign outside of our church that said “Homosexuals welcome”? • What about if Jim took the bus and brought back 5 drunks next Sunday morning? • What if we announced that we ...read more

    As we begin a new year, we need to consider looking back, where we were; looking inward – where we are; and looking ahead – where we are going. Paul in Philippians 3 provides us with an example of evaluating one’s past, present, and future.

    Note the depth of honesty in the Gospels. There is no cover-up here: Peter blew it! But Before we condemn Peter, given the circumstances, would we have shown up in Caiaphas’ courtyard that evening?

    Sermon Notes “The Rock Crumbles” Matthew 26:31-35, 69-75 Introduction: Did you know that Las Vegas has opened a call-in phone service called “Connection Confession?” It is a service where people can call and confess their sins to a recording – a confession hot-line.

    We can see how quickly satan can attack. In a short time Peter went from confessing Jesus to rebuking Jesus. Jesus teaches us how we can be on guard against our wiley foe as well as how to live with purpose for Him.

    (see also Mark 8:27-30) for context. Dear beloved in Christ... In our Gospel reading there is much to grab our attention as Jesus is in process of predicting his death and resurrection. We hear about how Jesus must suffer many things and that we are called to take up our cross and follow Jesus. ...read more

    Jesus, with pinpoint, laser-like clarity cuts through all the red tape and fine print and says there are two pinnacle principles that serve as the hinge pins on which the kingdom swings.

    Two I. Introduction Do you ever think about the type of person Jesus was? I am talking about personality wise. When we think about each other that is what we do . . . mild, direct, intense, aloof, or warm. But when we think about Jesus we often stop at thinking about who He was and not what He was ...read more

    Judah finds both repentance, and amendment of life.

    THE TESTIMONY OF JUDAH. Genesis 44:18-34. I have often wondered why the account of Joseph’s plight in Egypt is interrupted by a chapter about his half-brother Judah (Genesis 38). However, this part of the narrative (Genesis 37-50) is headed ‘the generations of Jacob’ (Genesis 37:2). The whole of ...read more
