    There are many divisive pressures that have always sought to keep us apart, but the cause and Cross of Jesus draws us together into one family.

    Standing Alone Galatians 2:11-14 She was fourteen. You all know the rocky terrain of being fourteen. It is mountainous and wooded and hard to find your way.

    Many people get the first thing first...accepting Christ. Many miss putting the second thing second, giving themselves to the local church.

    July 13, 2003 First they gave themselves to the Lord; and then by God’s will, they gave themselves to us as well. 2 Corinthians 8:5 (GN) On the day of dedication of "Solomon’s Temple," the king erected a brazen platform in the outer court.

    A sermon that uses two childrens word pictures - pooh bear and Alice in Wonderland - to discus how Hebrews chapter 6 can point us towards maturity. This sermon is rather long and I only used a portion of it when preaching.

    Destination Maturity!!!!!!!!!! Here is Pooh Bear, coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump, on the back of his head, behind Christopher Robin. It is, as far as he knows, the only way of coming downstairs, but sometimes he feels that there really is another way, if only he could stop bumping for a ...read more

    This morning we come to the cross itself. We’re going to look at four points: His suffering, His sacrifice, the supernatural events, and finally, the significance of it all.

    A little boy was not exactly happy about going to church on Easter Sunday morning. His new shoes hurt, his tie pinched his neck, and the weather outside was just too good to be cooped up inside. As he sulked in the back seat of the family car, he complained to his parents: “I don’t see why we have ...read more

    To be a successful Christian we must allow the Grace of God to run its course in our inner life. When that happens then we can become an effective believer in our outer life- in how we represent the Lord to others.
