    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,074 views

    The Bible talks less about what makes a great leader than it does about what makes a great servant. What is it about God's leaders that requires them to be servants of others?

    Today we are putting a man's name into consideration as a future Elder. I hadn't actually planned a sermon on Eldership (the sermon series I'm preaching through is something I'm working with other preachers on) but the text seemed to be a good groundwork for understanding what ...read more

    Sermon # 43- No Room For Self-Righteousness Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 22, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 372 views

    Self-righteous Jonah rejoiced over a plant that gave him shade, but had not compassion on the people of Nineveh who genuinely repented of their sins. There’s no room for self-righteousness, as all of us are sinners saved by God's grace alone.

    We read in Jonah 4:6, “Then the LORD God made a plant grow up over Jonah to give him some shade, so that he would be more comfortable. Jonah was extremely pleased with the plant.” (GNB) As we studied the life of Jonah there are numerous lessons that we have picked up, both for our personal lives, ...read more

    For us to continue in the love God has shown us we must pass that love on to others. In Acts 6 we see love being passed on even before there were Elders in the church. In Acts 6 we see the church moving on a road map God had laid out for the new group o
