    Deny Ourselves? Take Up The Cross? Series

    Contributed by Scott Chambers on Sep 27, 2011
     | 7,319 views

    This message is the sixth in a series that deals with some of the difficult sayings of Jesus. This message examines the meaning of denying yourself and taking up your cross.

    Sacrifice is a word that has the ability to send shivers down the spines of the majority of us. Of course Christians have reconciled themselves to the idea that this is a part of following Jesus. I would venture to say that our understanding of the concept of sacrifice is much different than ...read more

    Custom-Made! 1) By God's grace; 2) For God's praise

    Do you own anything custom-made? If you’re good with your hands, you may have knitted a scarf for yourself once or even built a bookcase. For the rest of us there’s always Wal-Mart or IKEA if we need one of those items. But it’s not the same, is it? Things that have been ...read more

    The incident with the snake on the pole in the wilderness is one of the strangest occurrences in scripture. This sermon looks at how it is part of God's on-going covenant keeping.

    I hate snakes. End of story. There’s only one good type of snake in my book—a dead one! I can see a snake crawling on the ground and immediately it makes my skin crawl…it feels like the snake is crawling all over me. Yes, I know. It’s an irrational thing, and no, I don’t know where it comes ...read more

    For the Christian, Faith is not spelled "F-A-I-T-H" it is spelled "R-I-S-K." If something is not a risk, then it really does not require Faith. Updated March 2021.

    Mark jumps right into the life and ministry of Jesus, proclaiming Him as the Son of God. The Gospel opens with John the Baptist, preaching a message of repentance in preparation for the coming of Christ. He too proclaimed His deity.

    Jesus Christ Proclaimed Mark 1: 1-8 As we begin our study in Mark’s Gospel, it is interesting to note that he doesn’t offer any genealogy of Christ, the events surrounding His birth, or any details about His childhood. These would have been essential to reach a Jewish audience, but ...read more
