Sermons on Door Of Opinion:

Do We Have A Vision Of Goodness?

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Feb 4, 2023

Are we focused just on what and who is inside our church doors? Or are we looking, searching and sharing what we have with others so that they may come in?

In this context, vision alludes to the disclosure (prophesy) that the prophets would obtain from God. Where there is obliviousness of God, sin and crime go out of control. The public moral compass of society relies upon the knowing God’s directions, yet it likewise relies upon individuals keeping ...read more

The Announcement Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 5, 2023

Jesus' arrival brought the Kingdom of Heaven to earth and opened the door for us to become citizens of God's Kingdom. We need to repent and align our lives with the Kingdom of God.

Jesus' arrival was a big deal, and it was predicted way back in the Old Testament. The Jewish people were waiting for this hero, the Messiah, to show up and set things right. John the Baptist was like the hype man, telling everyone, "The Kingdom of Heaven is coming. Get your act together and ...read more

Breakin’ Aachan

Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 6, 2025

The story of Achan reminds us that hidden sin always breaks trust, breaks community, and breaks us — but in Christ, even the Valley of Trouble can become a Door of Hope.

Introduction: This morning, the message is called “Breakin’ Aachan.” Yeah, you heard me right. Because what we’re about to look at is a man who broke trust with God, broke covenant with his people, and in the end… it broke him.

Loving On Jesus Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 14, 2011

The old Gospel hymn says "Oh, how I love Jesus", but in John 14 Jesus implies that not everyone who says they love Him actually do. Just because I go to church regularly doesn’t mean I really love Him, so how can I know I really love Jesus like I say I do

OPEN: I love to sing, and one of my favorite Hymns is “Oh How I love Jesus”. Sing it with me now if you would: 1. There is a name I love to hear, I love to sing its worth; It sounds like music in my ear, the sweetest name on earth. CHORUS: O, how I love Jesus, O, how I love Jesus, O, how I love ...read more

Biblical Fasting

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jul 24, 2017

Fasting has been misused by mystics and sometimes remained a mystery to many committed Christians. Although opinions are mixed on the issue, I believe we can carve out a Biblical position that, while perhaps incomplete, will lay a good foundation.

Biblical Fasting (Matthew 9: 14-15) 1. This is perhaps the most awful pun you will hear. 2. Mahatma Gandhi went around barefoot quite often, and eventually his soles turned very tough and thick. Of course he also was a devout Hindu. Later in life he also fasted a lot, becoming thin and ...read more

Welcome To The "Post-Truth” World!

Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Mar 31, 2017

Those with discernment know that we have been living in a spiritual “Post Truth” world for a millennia. God's facts and truths have been less influential in shaping individual public opinion than have appeals to emotion, personal reason and perspectives.

Welcome to the “Post-Truth” World! You may have heard that, back in December, the Oxford Dictionary announced that "Post-Truth" is its 2016 word of the year. According to the Dictionary's website, the word is "an adjective defined as 'relating to or denoting circumstances in which objective facts ...read more

When Men Say No, God Says Yes

Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on May 30, 2025

Man may shut doors, deny opportunities, or declare failure over your life. But those are not the final words. When God says yes, it means acceptance, restoration, honour, favour, and fulfilment. His yes overrides every “no” spoken over your destiny.

Practice Makes Perfect

Contributed by David Crank on Sep 12, 2011

Your personal best requires that you take on the mindset of an athlete. An athlete runs to win. They exercise disciplines for the win when the door opens for opportunity. They sacrifice for what they believe in.

Everyone has heard the phrase “Practice makes perfect” or at least I think they have. It’s such an old adage, I’m not sure if anyone knows who said it first. Regardless of who coined the phrase, the Bible is full of wisdom concerning this very notion of practice and results. ...read more
