    Jesus: How To Be A Follower In Times Of Despair Series

    Fourth in the series "Meet the Cast." As you study Jesus’ life you realize that even though He did not lay aside his deity, He did humble himself as a man, to serve all humanity. So Jesus understands what we are facing in our lives.

    I love the way “The Passion of The Christ” movie begins, with the reminder that 400 years before Jesus was born his sacrifice was foretold in a vivid way. Isaiah 53:5 (LB) But he was wounded and bruised for our sins. He was beaten that we might have peace; he was lashed--and we were healed! ...read more

    Jesus wept....but do you know why? Presented at Thanksgiving as a look of why we should be thankful that we follow a God that would weep.

    Good morning, This morning it’s going to sound like I’m only speaking to the men here, but I think we can all learn something today. Question of the day….How many `Real Men’ are out there today? Come on….show of hands. Now how are you determining if you are a Real man? When you were young, ...read more

     | 4,695 views

    Jesus, Peter and Peter’s mother-in-law all showed what it means to be a friend. But we need to do the same. Don’t leave Jesus in church, take Him with you everywhere you go.

    Introduction What does it mean to be a friend? Is it someone willing to help you out in your time of need? Is it someone you enjoy doing some recreation activity with? Is it someone you can tell all of your personal problems to and who helps you through a difficult time? We probably all have ...read more

    Strength Is For Service, Not Status. Series

    Contributed by Daniel J. Little on Jan 16, 2012
     | 8,464 views

    A Christianity that allows you to escape living by radical faith in God is not a Chrsitianity that would be recognized by the early church, or by many believers in third-world countries around the world.

    Strength is For Service Not for Status 01-15-2012 Pastor Dan Little Adfontes.djl@gmail.com The Landmark Church, Binghamton, NY 13901 Jesus showed the disciples what it meant to live as a servant. For three years He modeled the servant life before them, and then toward the end of His earthly ...read more

    How Do I Get To Heaven Series

    Contributed by Erik Estep on Oct 20, 2011
     | 4,087 views

    Today in our passage of Scripture we’re going to see Jesus sharing w/His followers the exclusivity of Xianity. We’ll see Him sharing w/His followers why He’s the only way, the only ticket to heaven. -I’m going to be upfront w/you here. This isn’t

    “How Do I Get to Heaven?” John 14: 6 January 31, 2010 Intro: Probably the greatest virtue of our day is “tolerance.” Josh McDowell said tolerance used to mean, “to respect others beliefs and practices w/o sharing them.” But tolerance now means, “every ...read more

    Build The Ark

     | 4,129 views

    We are all tasked with something to do for God; some things seem small and insignificant when taken at face value while others seem like a massive undertaking. The truth is, all things are of eternal importance when it comes to what God is calling us to do.

    Build The Ark Grace Baptist Church Sunday Evening 11/8/20 Genesis 6:8;13-22 Did you know that Noah did not do any fishing while on the ark. You would think that fishing would be a staple while you wait for the water to recede. But I guess he didn’t fish. How do we know this? Because he only had ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,150 views

    In the Sermon on the Mount Jesus gave clear instructions to His followers to not worry about things God had already promised. Our worry betrays a lack of trust in God and distracts us from doing the work of the kingdom. Four times in the Gospel of Matth

    WHO DO YOU TRUST? Matthew 6:25-30 25 "Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink; nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothing? 26 Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor ...read more

    Why tithing is important.

    Intro. Today is All Tithe Sunday. This year in Stewardship, I did not teach a lot on what the Tithe is. Some disregard it, some scoff at it, but the tithe is an acknowledgment that we believe God provides all we have, and that God is faithful to us. The tithe is the first part of what God ...read more

     | 1,808 views

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Twenty-Six. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER TWENTY-SIX OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is that there is a famine in the land and God instructs Isaac not to go to Egypt: Isaac goes to Gerar instead and starts digging wells. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 26 Isaac, by God's command, sojourns in Gerar. ...read more

    Miracle Of The Method Series

    Baby Jesus in the manger looks so small. Yet this same moment is a miracle of salvation where absolute supremacy, authority, power, and the fullness of creation is embodied in this baby. We do not follow a small Jesus.

    What to do when it seems hopeless (2 Chron. 13:1-20) 1- Have you ever been in what seemed to be a hopeless situation? 2- Jereboam one of the most wicked kings Israel ever had makes war with Abijah a godly king of Judah. 3- Jereboam has 800,000 mighty men of valour and Abijah has only 400,000. 4- ...read more

    We need to be more like the disciple Andrew, who, while he didn't write any of the books in the Bible, led people to Jesus - people like Simon Peter and the boy in the parable of the loaves and fish. Following Jesus is the source of our power to change.
