    The Day Superman Died Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jul 28, 2013
    based on 69 ratings
     | 25,737 views

    Unlike Superman, Jesus came to earth... to die. But there are people who reject Jesus' mission. They refuse to accept the idea that Jesus came to die, to be buried and rise again. Why would they do that?

    OPEN: (We showed a picture on the screen of George Reeves as Superman with a flowing cape) Who is this? (Superman) Of course it’s Superman. This was THE superman. He was the strange visitor from another planet with powers and abilities beyond those of Superman. This was the hero that I ...read more

    We Have Access Youth Sermon

    Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 4, 2023
    based on 4 ratings
     | 419 views

    While the Crucifixion of Christ allowed for forgiveness of our sins, the Resurrection serves as our entrance into Heaven. We all have a choice to make in this life. Will we follow Jesus Christ to wherever He may lead us? Or, will we try to do things the world’s way, chasing after meaningless, temporary and empty satisfaction for only a few, short years? The Resurrection calls us to have an Eternal perspective.

    Today, we're gonna talk about the Resurrection of Jesus. That's the event we celebrate on Easter. But before we dive in, let me show you something cool. See this locked box? Imagine all the awesome stuff inside, but we can't get to it because it's locked. Bummer, right? Well, Jesus is like the key ...read more

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Feb 3, 2024
     | 904 views

    Hay victoria en Jesús. ¡El Señor resucitado! La hora de la oscuridad ha llegado y se ha ido. El poder de Dios venció la oscuridad. Él está vivo para siempre. No le des la victoria en tu vida al enemigo derrotado.

    Toda la historia conduce a la cruz y todo desde entonces se deriva de la cruz. Es el punto central de todos los tiempos. Sin embargo, la cruz es un punto bajo en la historia de la humanidad. Es el momento en que el ungido de Dios fue ejecutado. En la línea de tiempo de la historia, la cruz es ...read more

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jul 15, 2018
    based on 5 ratings
     | 20,166 views

    When Jesus healed people "power went out from Him". This isn't the only time "Power" is spoken about as "coming out" from Jesus when He performed His miracles. What does that mean and what can it mean to us?

    OPEN: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dW5OBrB4MRM (0:0 thru 1:52 - where the speaker begins to introduce next video) The video describes how chemicals are used to create the different colors in fireworks.

    Genesis begins "In the beginning God..." What does that mean for us, and what does rest of the first chapter mean for our lives?

    OPEN: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=28sqs5H5hao (It’s a video “Creation Calls” by Brian Doerksen. I immediately followed video with quote by Abraham Lincoln and then immediately began to read from the entire chapter of Genesis 1) Abraham Lincoln once said: “I never behold ...read more

     | 13,490 views

    The praise song "How Great is our God" is a statement of faith - Our God Is Great! But the question today is "How Great Is YOUR God?" Do you know the answer to that question?

    based on 66 ratings
     | 19,573 views

    Mary & Martha said that Lazarus was the one whom Jesus loved. But how could Jesus treat a friend like He did? Why would He callously stay away while this close friend died... and He could have prevented it?

    OPEN: “How many of you know the name of the brother of Mary and Martha who Jesus raised from the dead?” (most of the audience raised their hand). Who was it? Lazarus. Read text: John 11:1-47 followed by prayer. ILLUS: A few years back I read a story about a may village in southwest ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 15,969 views

    Do you find yourself living like a half dead Christian. Is your faith something that is buried instead of alive in you? You may need Jesus to Roll away the stone keeping you from a Resurrection kind of faith.

    Roll Away the Stone John Chapter 11 Jesus crosses the line and goes back to Judea where his friend Lazarus has died. Sometimes God will call us and ask us to cross the line. To go from a place of relative safety to a place of danger. The last time Jesus was in Judea they tried to kill Him by ...read more

    The Day Jesus Wept Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Apr 22, 2012
    based on 207 ratings
     | 67,707 views

    Odd things about this story: Why does the Bible tells us "Jesus wept"? And why didn’t Jesus "show up" a few days earlier and make sure Lazarus didn’t die? Why allow this close personal friend to die, and allow his friends and family to mourn?

    OPEN: Back in March of 2008, the mayor of a city in SW France had a problem. It seems his village was running out of space. Not in housing, nor in the retail district, nor even at City Hall.

     | 18,611 views

    In a world that is dominated by those who defy, avoid and simply fear death, David simply says "Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil." Why was it that David could be so confident?

    We know God is just and does righteously. This time we look at an important aspect of God’s judgement - DEGREES OF PUNISHMENT AND PENALTY. No one will have an excuse before the great white throne. What about those who never heard of Jesus Christ or God’s forgiveness?

     | 1,471 views

    The world sometimes calls Christians “losers” and “suckers” for believing what we do; and for what we are. BUT THERE IS A RESURRECTION, so that the real losers are those who mock Christians and will lose everything. We look at the time after Calvary up to the Resurrection and what it all means.
