    A shorter sermon about the difference between having true belief versus just thinking you have true belief. Interesting illustration about a pendulum.

    Take an empty cola bottle sometime and fill it half full of water. Then, take some vegetable oil and fill it the rest of the way. Then try to shake it with all your might so it will become all mixed up. What happens? The moment you stop shaking, it begins to separate from one another, doesn’t ...read more

    Committing A G-Rated Marriage Series

    My original premise for this sermon was "strong Christian marriages are built upon the commitment the Christian has to their marriage" - but I don’t believe that anymore... find out why.

    OPEN: In our series of building a G-rated home in an R-rated world, one of the things we need to realize is that much of what we’ve come to believe about marriage has come from those who teach an “R-rated” view of how married people ought to think. God’s view of marriage is far different than this ...read more

    This sermon is about listening to the voice of God foillowing a national tragedy or disaster such as a Tsunamii.

    Illustration: Someone sent me an e-mail this week entitled "Thanks for your e-mails in 2004". It wasn’t really in response to my e-mails, but deals with the volumes of e-mails that are passed from person to person. Here’s what the thank you letter says: (4) "Thanks to everyone who sent me such ...read more

    Becoming A Contagious Church

    The Jerusalem church grew daily because there was such a contagious spirit among Christians that drawn others to it. The church today can also follow the example of the early church and become a contagious church.

    BECOMING A CONTAGIOUS CHURCH (Inspired by Bill Hybels book: Building a Contagious Church) ILLUSTRATION: A PARAMEDIC was asked on a local Dallas TV talk-show program: “What was your most unusual and challenging 911 call?” “Recently,” paramedic began, we got a call from that big white CHURCH on ...read more

    We may live a life of Christian comfort with friends and fellow church members until one day God calls us from our everyday existance into His extra ordinary service.

    Who Needs A Boat? - Mark Aarssen May 2004 My friends I want to talk today about stepping out. I don’t mean out to dinner or out on the town but stepping out in faith. Has there been a time when you were a witness to one of God’s miracles? A time when you stood and watched in absolute ...read more

    Are You Listening Well? Series

    We need to develop the virtue of listening to God by making time for the Word, and tilling the ground of our heart, so that we stay receptive.

    In our Christian walk with God, one important virtue we need to cultivate is LISTENING. We must be serious about listening to God and what He is saying to us.

    All this leads me to an important subject I have been wanting to address. What is it? It is the temptation to believe that earthly honors will automatically result in heavenly rewards.

    IT’S TIME TO LAUGH NO CONFIDENCE IN THE FLESH Philippians 3:1-11 A while ago I talked with a man who said that he needed to work harder at being happier. That got my attention. He said he’d been raised in an ultraserious home. He said, My parents taught us that we could achieve whatever we ...read more

    Is the story of creation a myth? And what is the book of Genesis about anyway? Learn what this first book is, and what it is not as we begin our journey through God’s wonderful story.

    For many people today - to say that you believe the Bible is to say that you are an anachronism - something out of today’s enlightened understanding. To say that Scripture is revealing the truth is laughable in some circles - especially among the intelligentsia. Much of the reason for scoffing at ...read more

    This is the second in a series on the Philippian church. The experience of Paul and Silas in Philippi shows us key principles of salvation and joy.

    The Not So Great Escape Curt Deming Melbourne Community Church I love prison escape movies. It seems that no matter how badly they behaved to get themselves into prison, once they start trying to get out, I’m rooting for them to make it. It’s even easier to sympathize with the escaping prisoner ...read more

    After the resurrection, Jesus still had ministry to perform on His disciples, to equip them for the work he set before them. What he did for them still bears fruit in the lives of saints today.
