    In todays world of darkness, there is a need for light. Jesus is the light of the world. We need to light our world around us with His light.

    The Light in a World of Darkness John 8:12 October 27, 2002 Making decisions in the dark can lead to some regrettable consequences. Back in the days before electricity, a tightfisted old farmer was taking his hired man to task for carrying a lighted lantern when he went to call on his best girl. ...read more

    God provides light for all who would have their darkness revealed.

    Scripture Introduction The first words of God recorded in the Bible are: “Let there be light.” Later we find that “God is light, and in him is no darkness at all” (1John 1.5). Darkness universally symbolizes sin and death; light corresponds to life and holiness and purity. Thus King David sings ...read more

    Jesus, the light of the world, came to give us hope.

    Light To A Dark World Text: Jn. 1:6-13 Introduction 1. Illustration: As Craig T. Kocher in his commentary on our text states, "Christian hope is fundamentally different from optimism. Christian hope locks its steely eyes on the devastation of the world around it, and readily acknowledges that ...read more

    A Children's Sunday sermon focusing on the reality of light and the illusion of darkness.

    Today you’ve noticed that we’ve been talking a lot about light. It’s because that is the theme for the summer program this year but also because the concept of light is so important to the church. Jesus used it as a metaphor to describe to people who He was and it still works ...read more

    This sermon is about Jesus being the light of the world. This is a great miracle story and right when it gets going Jesus interrupts with a two sentence insight about Himself. What an awesome interruption! We need to be interrupted more often!

    Today we’ll be taking a further look at the miracle of Jesus healing the man born blind. Last week we saw that Jesus, being omniscient or all knowing, knew that the man was blind from birth and that his blindness not the result of personal sin or the sin of his parents. We also saw that the ...read more

     | 8,643 views

    A sermon on what it means for a Christian to be called out of the darkness of the world (e.g., past behaviors, relationships, attitudes, etc.) and called into the Kingdom of the Son.

    About 11 years ago, I received my formal call into ministry. It wasn’t a call from a church. It wasn’t a call from a bishop. It wasn’t even a call from the Pope but that would have been nice. I considered it a direct call from God. You see, I had been struggling with where I ...read more

    You carry Jesus in you who is light and reveals darkness. The world is darkness and darkness has never liked light. Jesus revealed their wickedness and you reveal their wickedness too so they hate you with great passion.

    An Easter sermon on the light of Christ that over powers all the darkness of this world!

    Darkness is a funny thing, isn't it? We have to have darkness; it helps us get better sleep. Sometimes in the midst of a headache or an especially sunny day, we long for a few moments of darkness. Darkness is good for a movie or a haunted house. But then again, too much darkness can be a bad thing ...read more

    Jesus had power over the darkness of this world

    Intro: in the next few days evil will be glorified as good. Witches, warlocks, devils and death will be promoted as all powerful in this world. But the church isn’t suppose to tremble by the darkness, but shine in it, take authority over it, and overcome it with good. I believe Jesus always ruins ...read more

    A young boy went with his parents touring around Europe one summer. Part of their tour included visits to the great old cathedrals of the past.
