    based on 232 ratings
     | 65,539 views

    Using Zacchaeus as an example, this sermon shows that no matter what our past, we are lovingly accepted by Jesus Christ as His own. Sermon based upon a sermon by Lee Stroebel.

    One of your greatest needs in life is to feel valuable; that your life matters; and that you are worthwhile. Because of this, you’ll find yourself looking around and comparing yourself to other people. In our society we tend to base our self-worth on four things: 1 - We judge our worth first ...read more

  • How To Impress God

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Aug 2, 2005
    based on 178 ratings
     | 51,405 views

    We can only impress God when we finally realize that we have nothing in life aside from Christ within us. That is how we manage to impress God - not with our pride, but with our humble honesty.

    There was a very lost, wicked, and rebellious man who decided it would be good for business if he went down to the church and joined it. He was an adulterer, an alcoholic, and had never been a member of a church in his life. But when he went down to place membership, he gave public testimony to ...read more

     | 20,322 views

    We get upset and walk around focusing on those things that do not go the way we want them to. But is being unhappy what God wants for us?

    All of us want to be happy in our lives, don’t we? That might be one reason a person would go to church; to find happiness. But have you ever really thought what happiness includes? Happiness includes a feeling of peace within your heart. Happiness includes a feeling of calmness when all around ...read more

    There is a golf course in Phoenix, Arizona. They cater to you as if you were a king. It is not open to just anyone, though. Before you can play that course, you have to become a member. There is a big store in Tulsa called SAM’S CLUB that has just about everything you can desire, and it is all ...read more

  • Having Peace Of Mind

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Aug 11, 2005
    based on 37 ratings
     | 6,796 views

    We discuss how we can have true peace of mind by following 5 simple principles: none of which are found in the world.

    Most people have anything but true peace of mind. That seems to be one of those things we all search for, but never really find, right? I heard an advertisement that said if you purchased their product, you could have total peace of mind, because if it didn’t work, you would get your money back. ...read more

    based on 64 ratings
     | 7,034 views

    Society seems to go by us so fast we do not have the time to assess it or where we are in it. We are admonished to focus on the Lord, not on our ever-changing world. (From a wonderful sermon I read on Sermon Central.)

    Incredible changes have taken place in the past hundred years. We are experiencing more change than ever in history. The rate of change is so great that we barely catch our breath before another blast of change slams into us. Everything we’re familiar with is changing, right before our eyes. We ...read more

    A sermon telling us of the hope we have in the Lord Jesus; to not despair or give up, but to persevere and keep our focus on the hope of Him. (Another sermon I did from one I found on Sermon Central.)

    There have been many prestigious people throughout the years who have been atheists, but have come to the Lord and ended up saying and doing great things that helped others see Jesus more clearly. Malcolm Muggeridge was a British journalist who was an atheist. He was so good, that he was ...read more

    based on 144 ratings
     | 37,138 views

    A sermon explaining why attending every possible service is almost a mandatory thing: Not just for the church, but for ourselves, other believers, and for the community as well.

    I have spent many years in many churches. Many times I sat as a member of the congregation, having the same viewpoint and expectations as most of you have. And then there were many times I saw something quite different than what you see each week. For many years, I saw the church body through ...read more

    based on 135 ratings
     | 31,400 views

    This sermon shows what the Golden Rule really means, and how we might be better examples of it in our daily lives.

    I am sure that all of us have shopped at J.C. Penney at some time or other, but I want to tell you something that you probably did not know about Penney’s. It used to be known as “the Golden Rule store”. In fact, when Mr. Penney first started, his first several stores were called that. Mr. ...read more

    based on 244 ratings
     | 63,692 views

    This is the service for one of our members who went to be with our Savior last night. I hope that the joy of knowing her comes through in the words of this service.

    We gather here today, not to celebrate death, but to celebrate life; eternal life. Suzie’s temporary life on earth is now over, but her permanent life in Heaven with her Savior, Jesus Christ, has just begun. If we could picture her entrance to Heaven, we would see all the saints that ever went on ...read more

    based on 61 ratings
     | 8,947 views

    A sermon showing that God’s Spirit is holy; an attribute we so often fail to remember. We discuss the absolute need to rely upon the Spirit or we will be powerless as Christians.

    A man who was raised in the city bought a farm and moved to the country. He soon bought a cow. When he went to buy the feed for the cow, he was told the best way to use it for maximum milk.

    based on 127 ratings
     | 10,731 views

    A sermon explaining just who the devil is; what he tries to do to us; and how he accomplishes it. A sermon most Christians should hear.

    Here is a figure that brings all varieties of thoughts to people’s heads. To some, the Devil is nothing more than a red Halloween costume with horns and a tail. They do not believe in the devil. He is a joke; a non-existent entity. To others, the Devil is a god himself, to be worshipped in all ...read more

    A young man was learning to be a paratrooper. Before his first jump, he was given these four instructions: 1. Jump when you are told. 2. Count to ten and pull the ripcord. 3. If it does not work, pull the emergency ripcord. 4. When you land, a truck will take you back to the base. The young ...read more

    Using an illustration showing how we not only grab things of this world, but we hold on to them in spite of approaching spiritual death.

    For those of you who were not able to be here last Sunday evening, Pastor Willie presented one of the best sermons I have heard in a very long time. In that sermon was an illustration that I thought was perhaps the best I have ever heard involving how we may want God, but we want what is in the ...read more
