    The call to follow Jesus takes priority over every other obligation in life, and when we have a lot, it is difficult to respond to that call.

    I was raised by a single mom from the time I was three years old until I was about nine years old. Back then we lived in a small trailer in Los Angeles. My mom was on welfare. I remember at one time having a teenage runaway living with us, and he would baby-sit me at night while my mom worked. We ...read more

  • Another Kind Of King Series

    Contributed by Timothy Peck on Mar 12, 2003
    based on 74 ratings
     | 7,943 views

    Jesus Christ’s entry into Jerusalem reveals Jesus as the promised king, the humble king, and the unexpected king.

    Note: This sermon was introduced with scene 49 from the play "Traveling Light." As Americans, most of us don’t like kings very much. After all, that’s why we fought a revolutionary war in 1776, to be free of the tyranny of a king. Even though the king might be a benevolent king, he’s still a king ...read more

  • The Barren Temple Series

    Christ’s cursing of the fig tree and "cleansing" of the temple caution us about living our lives by mere appearances and trusting in anything other than Jesus.

    Appearances can be deceiving. I was reminded of this several years ago when I was waiting in line at a McDonalds with two of my sons. A guy came into McDonalds who looked really suspicious. He had long hair, tattoos everywhere, several body piercings, and he just looked scary. This guy seemed to be ...read more

    If we want to be truly great, we must be sincere servants. Let’s focus on serving one another as we anticipate what God will do in the next 35 years at PBC!

    Serve One Another This Tuesday marks the 35th anniversary of Pontiac Bible Church! As we celebrate three and a half decades of servanthood, I’d like to read from an early church document entitled, “Progress Report.” “The desire to see the Word of God presented as a positive solution to the needs ...read more

  • Carry Each Other's Burdens Series

    When we walk alongside those who are weary or wiped out, we’re acting like Jesus did. If we truly care for others, we’ll care enough to confront sin and carry burdens.

    Carry Each Other’s Burdens I’ve not watched a lot of the American Idol TV show, but I’ve seen enough to know that Simon Cowell, one of the talent judges, enjoys tearing down the talentless. Here are some of his cutting comments: “If you lived 2,000 years ago and sang like that, they would have ...read more

    With all the reports about the nearness of the Second Coming, we must not become alarmed. The Antichrist is also coming and will proclaim himself to be God, but believers have nothing to fear.

    The Antics of the Antichrist One afternoon, when we lived in Mexico City, I was in a McDonald’s restaurant studying Spanish. As I was eating my hamburger with jalapenos (that’s how they do it in Mexico), I suddenly became very dizzy and disoriented. I wasn’t too concerned at first because this ...read more

    based on 54 ratings
     | 20,445 views

    After almost a century of exile, the Jews returned to find Jerusalem in ruins. They were spiritually unplugged. Ezra is a great story of how they plugged in to what God had for them. Giving an offering was an important step in getting plugged in.

     | 84,051 views

    Like blind Bartimaeus, none of us has ever seen Jesus with our physical eyes, and we are blind until we come to Him. But Jesus is able to hear your cry of mercy from the roar of the crowd. He is listening for your voice and will stop and respond to you.

    What the Blind Man Saw Luke 18:35-43 by David O. Dykes INTRODUCTION Most people eat too much over the holidays. That’s why the #1 New Year’s Resolution each year is to exercise and lose weight. If you think you overate during the holidays, I have some important information for you. Scientists ...read more

    Revenge is a subtle temptation but we can see how we can submit to God’s will, instead of succumbing to it.

Wherever we would go, my father and my brother and I would be looking all around, enjoying what there was to see, but mother would be plodding along behind us, looking at the ground. We used to tell her, “You’re missing ...read more
