    What did Jesus feel in the pre-dawn darkness as He stood outside the empty tomb? Elation, a sense of victory? Yes, but even moreso, a sense of accomplishment for what He had done.

    Passage: Isaiah 53:10-12 Intro: It has to be one of the greatest feelings there is. 1. you fill in the last figure on the spreadsheet and click on “print” 2. you finish the last part of the wall, clean up the mess, and then stand back to admire the new look because of the paint you have app. 3. ...read more

Just ten minutes ago, I was taking care of my dogs so I could come back inside and set to work without distractions or other obligations on my mind.

    Jesus came to bring good news of great joy for everyone. Why don’t more people experience the joy of the Lord. How can we become rewired for joy at this Christmas season?

    Valley Grove Assembly of God December 7, 2008 “Are You Wired for Joy or Wired for Stress?” Luke 2:8-20 Verse 10 “but the angel reassured them…don’t be afraid,” he said, “I bring you good news of great joy for everyone!” INTRODUCTION: [Show strings of tangled Christmas lights all in a heap on ...read more

    based on 8 ratings
     | 11,207 views

    This sermon is the second installment on why we are obligated to give God all of the praise that we can. True praise comes from the inside out, not the outside in.

    Introduction: Whenever it comes to Jesus the Christ, it seems to be a gray area for many. It seems to be an area of discomfort, but when it comes to God there’s more of a relaxed atmosphere. Whenever there is a conversation about God, the atmosphere is somewhat pleasant or neutral, but when ...read more

    To be born again means trusting God enough to leave the safety of our old life

    “Very truly, I tell you, no-one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above.” Jesus always chose the words he used very carefully. To appreciate that this is true you only have to think about the stories he told to illustrate the message he was trying to get across. Think about the ...read more

    Our lives would be greatly altered without fire. The Bible uses the word fire throughout its contents. However there are four kinds of fire mentioned in the Bible that I would like to talk about this morning.

    Luke 4:43 But He said to them, "I must preach the kingdom of God to the other cities also, because for this purpose I have been sent." Jesus had the power to accomplish his purpose. The purpose for his coming was the preaching the kingdom of God to the whole world. He has given us the same ...read more

    The reason why we missed many growth opportunities to kingdom greatness is our failure to listen and obey God. James told us to be doers of God’s Word.

    Theme: Listening God Text: Jas.1: 22-25 Introduction: A. Last Sunday we learned that humility is one of the key principles to kingdom greatness. Humility has to do with knowing and doing God’s will. It is responding God’s call, obeying God’s Word, and giving attention to God’s promptings. So in ...read more

     | 3,004 views

    This sermon was written the night my son was born. I gave it when he was 2 days old. It focuses on the love of a father, especially in the context of John 3:16. How great is a Father’s love?

    “My Son (Eli) is Born!” (I Can’t Help It) Friday morning… at 7:42 am… central standard time… hurricane Eli made landfall.

    Narnia, Jesus And Moses: God's Presence And Mercy

    To those who trust him God promises his presence. Just as Aslan showed mercy towards Edmund, so God is a God of mercy and compassion.

    Why do I believe that the bible events surrounding Moses are important? Why do I believe that Moses is important for us today? Moses was born in roughly 1350 BC, 3300 years ago, and as we have studied Moses, we have seen that his birth points to the later birth of Jesus Christ. We have seen that ...read more

    Easter Is Dangerous!

    Contributed by Bramwell Hayes on Apr 13, 2006
    based on 8 ratings
     | 5,759 views

    Easter from the viewpoint of Caiaphas, demonstrating that it would be better for obstinant rebels if Christ had not been raised from the dead. The fact of Easter requires us to repent and turn to Christ

    Matthew 28:11-15 This is all most inconvenient, not to mention dangerous! I don’t know what the Romans will make of all this. They only put me in power as High Priest to keep the country in order and to stop things like this happening. If that Jesus had kept to carpentry none of this would have ...read more

    The Servant Of The Lord

     | 5,595 views

    As we consider at Christmas the reasons Jesus came, service is near the top of the list, a self-giving service that led all the way to the cross.

    Jesus was born in Bethlehem to serve, and servant-hood is the theme of this messianic prophecy. It has been called Isaiah’s “Servant Song.” The Servant is the anointed Messiah, the Lord Jesus, “Who being in very nature God...made Himself nothing, taking the very nature of ...read more

    Let’s look at Matthew 3:1-12 and the idea of repentance as preparation for Christ.

    Intro A commercialized, materialistic Christmas disappoints us every year. We spend money we don’t have on gifts that our children don’t need and we end up raising unhappy and selfish adults who don’t appreciate the greatest Christmas gift of all. What we really need, we ...read more
