    Good Shepherding

    Contributed by Bradley Boydston on Dec 8, 2001
    based on 15 ratings
     | 4,658 views

    How can we call Jesus the "good shepherd" when there is so much tragedy? From the Sunday after the Columbine shootings. Deals with the problem of evil.

    "I am the good shepherd..." The very fact that Jesus chooses to describe himself as such suggests that there were other less-than-good shepherds operating in the neighborhood. There were people who cared more for themselves than the sheep and were less than considerate-perhaps even brutal at ...read more

    part of a series dealing with topics of struggle. This week was where to go for help with addictions. I use changing lanes in a car as an illustration for changing direction in life

We got to a traffic light where we were going to turn right and there was one car in front of me. The light was red – and then we got a ...read more

    This message is an introduction to the book of Colossians. It gives the history of its establishment through the eyes of Epaphras. It also deals with using our tongues to uplift others.

    March 16, 2003 Colossians 1:1-8 “If you can’t say anything nice…” INTRODUCTION As parents, one of the first things that we teach our children is the phrase, “If you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all.” It’s a good phrase to live by. This morning, I’m going ...read more

    Elijah's Depression

    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Aug 11, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 10,141 views

    Beginning with a monologue that takes some poetic license as Elijah passes the mantle to Elisha, this teaching gives tips from a Biblical model on dealing with depression.

    [This sermon began with a monologue. It presumed that Elijah needed to fill Elisha in on what had gone before. With dramatic license, it recounts what is in the Bible’s account, even though the Bible doesn’t specify that Elijah actually filled Elisha in or needed to fill Elisha in on Elijah’s ...read more

    I suspect all of us can identify a Barnabas or two in our past who gave us a second chance. Maybe it was a parent or a relative or a teacher or a church leader or a close friend. Christianity means second chances.

    God wants to come to His world, but He wants to come to it through man. This is the mystery of our existence. He wants to come to this world through you. Proverbs 15:23 says, “A man has joy by an apt answer, and how delightful is a timely word.” I enjoyed a Charles Schulz cartoon ...read more

    Where do we stand as a Nation Spiritually? If we think that it is not our concern to care for those who cannot care for themselves, we must remember the past, look at the present, and plan for the future.

    If you are a Christian who has something that belongs to God, Time, Talent, Money, secret sin or a painful past, it’s time to uncover those things and give them back to God.

    We begin in the Book of Joshua chapter 5:1 Joshua’s Hebrew name means “God is our Salvation” The Hebrew name Joshua is rendered in the Greek as Iesous which we pronounce in English as “Jesus”. So the names Joshua and Jesus are the same and have the meaning “God is our Salvation.” The Children of ...read more

    David was able to slain giant Goliath because he finds strength in (1) looking unto God and trusting Him, (2) recalling what God has done in the past through him.

    Jesus Greater Than Moses Series

    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,481 views

    For the writer of Hebrews is was important to get across the point to his Jewish brethren that Jesus was greater than Moses. The people were stuck on the past and their traditions, and had missed the Messiah who was right there in their midst.

    Jesus Greater than Moses Hebrews 3:1-16 Intro Up to this point the writer of Hebrews has been doing his best to convince the non-believing in the area of the necessity of receiving Christ. The people are still stuck on their traditions and some see Jesus as equal to, or less than Moses. They ...read more
