    The Vision Of Wonderful Worship Series

    Contributed by Tim Adams on Dec 1, 2009
    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,767 views

    This sermon seeks to lay a proper foundation for biblical worship that is wonderful to Jesus, not necessarily to us.

    “The Vision of Wonderful Worship” John 4:9-26 A paramedic was asked on a local Dallas TV talk-show program: “What was your most unusual and challenging 911 call?” “Recently,” the paramedic began, “we got a call from that big white church on 11th and Walnut. A frantic usher was very concerned ...read more

    Problem Solving 101

    Do you have problems that are almost impossible to fix, your Father in Heaven can help. This sermon shows that even the Apsotles were reluctant to ask for His help.

    PROBLEM SOLVING 101 (All my sermons use illustrations found at www.sermoncentral.com and all scripture is NIV unless otherwise noted) (Small portions of Max Lucado’s “Every Day Deserves a Chance” are used in this sermon.) Ever had a problem and just thought to yourself, ...read more

    MY316 is a 5 week Small group study put out by the Baptist General Convention of Oklahoma that we did at our church. It's a study that focuses on evangelism. I preached 5 sermons that went along with each weeks study.

    MY316 “GREAT COMMISSION OR GREAT OMMISSION?” Matt. 28:18-20 When he was the pastor of the Methodist church in Scarborough, William Sangster had an eccentric member who tried to be a zealous Christian. Unfortunately, the man was mentally deficient and usually did the wrong thing. While ...read more

    A sermon examining the danger of abandoning the Lord and His work.

    The Abandoned Church Haggai 1:1-5 A certain church recently sold their building to a real estate developer and moved into a smaller location in another area. On the online news article there were dozens of comments from people complaining about the church's decision to sell. People were blasting ...read more

    Trust Christ with your life and wait for His coming, watch for His coming, and work until He comes out of a genuine, living faith in Him.

    Several years ago, a businessman had to drive to Fort Wayne, Indiana, for work. He rented a big, brand-new, Chrysler 300 and enjoyed the ride so much that he blew past the first tollbooth. He had an I-PASS in his own car, so he didn’t think anything about it. Then he realized that the rental car ...read more

    Searching For Home

    For many people, life seems dissatisfying. They are actually searching for home; but our true home is in heaven. Until we reach heaven, Jesus is our home. This is the expanded version of a funeral sermon I did called "Looking for Home."

    Some say, “Home is where the heart is.” What is home? John Ed Pearce, long-time writer for the Courier-Journal, stated, “Home is a place you grow up wanting to leave, and grow old wanting to get back to.” I’ve entitled our message this morning, “Searching for Home,” and I’m addressing this topic ...read more

    Be Imitators Of Jesus PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 7, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 95 views

    The sermon urges believers to let go of bitterness and embrace kindness and forgiveness, allowing the Holy Spirit to transform hearts and relationships through Christlike love.

    Friends, welcome. Pull up a chair in your heart and take a deep breath. Some of us walked in with a smile on our face and a storm in our soul. Honest hearts would admit it: bitterness can linger like smoke after a kitchen fire. Wrath can simmer, anger can echo, and harsh words can hang in the air ...read more

    Trick Or Treat? PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 28, 2025
    based on 4 ratings
     | 114 views

    God’s presence with us overcomes the enemy’s attempts to steal our peace, offering abundant life, hope, and strength through Jesus in every circumstance.

    Some weeks feel like someone sneaked into the pantry of our souls and walked off with the peace we thought we had stored for days like these. Distractions multiply. Weariness whispers. Worry shouts. And our hearts wonder: Where did my joy go? Why does hope seem thin? Why do I feel like I’m fighting ...read more

    God’s Amazing Grace PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 105 views

    God’s grace is a free gift we cannot earn; through faith, we receive His love and acceptance, not by our efforts but by His mercy.

    Some of us walked in today with hearts like clenched fists—trying to hold it all together, trying to square the accounts with God, trying to make sense of a week that wore us thin. We wonder if grace has a limit, if mercy has a meter, if love has a ledger. We keep a mental checklist: pray more, try ...read more

    God has indeed spoken to our nation, but are we listening?

    This week America buried our 40th President, Ronald Wilson Reagan. For many of us, Friday, June 11th was an ordinary day. Although the day was set aside as a national day of mourning, life went on as usual. Perhaps the only interruption of our day was the trip to an empty mail box, or closed ...read more
