    Contributed by Jason Powers on May 3, 2003
    based on 47 ratings
     | 11,568 views

    Discovering the purpose of our "personal relationship with our Lord and Savior" by looking at Exodus 3:1-10. God wants to save His people, and He chooses the ordinary things to be His spokesmen.

    “First Love: Love with a Purpose One of the catch phrases of Christianity is the phrase, “personal Lord and Savior.” It’s a good phrase; it implies several things: § It implies that Jesus and God are personal, that they’re intimately concerned with the very smallest details of your life.

     | 60,329 views

    I purposely decided to preach on the topic of God’s love at the end of this series because love is an essential attribute of God, the capstone of His personality. Having said that, I feel overwhelmed and challenged by the task of trying to put into words

    Our Loving God I know I got a lot of mileage last week out of turning 40 but I thought I’d begin this morning with a story about what happened when a young couple invited their aging pastor over for Sunday dinner.

    think some of the people in the crowd on that first Palm Sunday thought that they were witnessing a blooper. This wasn’t exactly how they thought it was going to work out. In their minds, the script wasn’t followed the way they thought it should have b

    A Big Crowd Meets a King I don’t know about you, but I like watching movie bloopers. There’s something funny about watching other people mess up. Many times these bloopers make it through the final cuts and show up on the screen. In a movie starring Jack Nicholson, he walks past an automatic ...read more

    This morning I want to begin by giving you my thesis: A mother can make a significant spiritual impact on her children with or without the help of a father.

    Mothers Who Love On this day that we honor mothers, its good for us to think about how much you really do. Being a mother is not a walk in the park… By the time a child reaches 18, a mother has had to handle some extra 18,000 hours of child-generated work. In fact, women who never have children ...read more

    When we lose sight of these basics and let them slide families begin to unravel and eventually the very fabric of our social structure starts to come apart.

    Jesus’ first advent, as a helpless infant born to peasants, confounds our false notions of power.

    Today is the second Sunday of Advent, the time of the Christian year in which we celebrate the birth of Christ and look forward to His return. During this season we remember the first coming of our Savior, and also anticipate His second coming. Now, let me begin by asking you a question: why do we ...read more
