    That’s what we are to do: fill in for the Boss! The Christian’s job description: Fill in for the Boss! Do what Jesus would do!

    “Filling in for The Boss” 2 Corinthians 5:20, 21 Do you know who died recently? Mickey Mouse! Or at least the man who has given him his squeaky voice.

    Following Jesus, My Decision For Baptism Series

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Oct 14, 2022
     | 2,098 views

    Philip was doing a great work in Samaria when the Holy Spirit sent him on what seemed a strange mission: go to Gaza, a desert region, and then get into a chariot. He obeyed, an Ethiopian official believed, and followed the Lord in baptism.

    Foreword: Full disclosure, I am a Southern Baptist and present this message from that perspective. Water baptism is part of the Great Commission (Matthew 28, Mark 16, e.g.) and is mentioned in connection with belief and with becoming a disciple. It is readily admitted there are others who hold ...read more

    After The Election

     | 5,708 views

    God does not care about the economy or missing WMDs or anything of the sort. God cares about the moral fabric of our nation and that moral fabric was up for election this past Tuesday. You can believe it or not, but it is true. The Question of the Day:

    AFTER THE ELECTION VARIOUS PASSAGES 1 TIMOTHY 2:1-4 I urge, then, first of all, that requests, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for everyone-- for kings and all those in authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all godliness and holiness. This is good, and pleases God ...read more

    How To Follow Jesus--Though Persecuted Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Jun 8, 2021
     | 2,404 views

    How we regard difficulties and persecutions will have everything to do with whether we respond positively or negatively to them. Surprising to us, the very things designed by men to destroy faith cause it to thrive, when we have a godly attitude.

    Jeanie and I recently read a book with a provocative name—The Insanity of God—by the pseudonymous author Nip Ripken. Of course, the title elicits the question, what is insane about God—a question the author never directly answers, but only becomes evident upon contemplation of his message. It ...read more

    Following God's instructions into unkown territory becomes the antithesis for faith that pleases Him.

    I want to begin my sermonic presentation by making a clear cut statement that I believe everybody needs to know and believe—and that is God has created everyone of us to live by faith. And as a consequence, every child of God is wired to perform and live by faith. Now what that means is that ...read more

    Do You Believe?

    Contributed by Paul Dietz on Mar 19, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 17,183 views

    This sermon is inspired by the movie beginning on March 20, 2015 by the same title. It uses Thomas and the story of his "doubting" in his faith-believing following Jesus' resurrection. It leaves us with the question, "Do you believe?"

    In 2012, the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life conducted a survey including White, Black and Hispanic Catholic, Protestant and Non-Denominational Christians. In this survey was the following statement, “I never doubt the existence of God.” Survey results are as follows: 80% ...read more

    Some of world’s greatest discoveries were initially rejected. We can reject the very thing that would be the best help for us - make the biggest difference - but we convince ourselves we do not need it. What about Jesus?

    The Bible is of supreme importance to Christians. We do not worship it, but it tells us of the God we do worship. It is assumed that Christians desire to study the Bible.

    Ahhhh .... The "gray areas" of morality. So tempting. So easy to justify. Should we be going there? What do you think???

    To Do or Not To Do the Dubious Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Titus 3:3-5 “At one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures.

     | 14,463 views

    Are you a little proud you attend church? Do you feel a little superior to those folks who sleep in or are out on the lake? There is no room for spiritual pride in grace, because in grace, it’s all about boasting in God not in our goodness.

    INTRODUCTION If you were around in 1975 you might remember the one-hit wonder “Feelings,” by Morris Albert “Feelings, nothing more than feelings; / Trying to forget my feelings of love; / Feelings, whoa, whoa, whoa feelings…” This is the sappiest song I’ve ever heard.

    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,488 views

    Jesus is reaching out to this generation calling them to follow Him. He wants to pour Himself into them to make authentic reproductions of Himself. His call supersedes all other earthly responsibilities. Do we have enough of Jesus to reproduce Him?

    The question was asked by Jesus to his first two disciples and still needs to be answered by those who seek to follow him.

    The Palestinian sun beat down on the two friends as they listened to John exhort the crowds to repentance. For the past few weeks they had followed John every where he had gone, listened to his message, and watched the crowds reaction. At first they were sure that he was the one that the ...read more
