     | 8,512 views

    Jesus demonstrates the heart of a true pastor when he leads the lost sheep of Israel to green pasture... litterally.

    The Loving Pastor Pastor Jesus. It’s not a phrase you hear very often. In fact, you may never have heard Jesus referred to quite like that. Nevertheless, Jesus was and is our pastor—the Good Pastor. The word pastor—which we often use to describe our church leaders and preachers—is derived from the ...read more

    Jesus performs a beautiful miracle at church one day. We see it from the persepective of the Crippled woman, Christ, Critics, and the crowd.

    Love Bent Double A while back, a friend e-mailed me a story about a seven-year-old boy whose mother asked him what he learned in Sunday school. He said, “Well, Mom, today we learned about the time when Moses was leading the people of Israel out of slavery in Egypt and across the Red Sea. They got ...read more

    Our Altar Of Worship

    Contributed by Roger Nelmes on Jan 30, 2008

     | 10,382 views

    As we just read in Hebrews 13:10, “we have an altar” of our own now. Our altar of worship isn’t like what they had in the Old Testament. Our altar of worship is a place were we can come and offer up the fruit of lips that confess His name.

    Our Altar Heb 13:10-16 10 We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle have no right to eat. 11 The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Place as a sin offering, but the bodies are burned outside the camp. 12 And so Jesus also suffered outside the ...read more

    Exposition on Hebrews 3. Have you been a Christian for a while? Are you wavering in your faith? The Hebrew believers can relate.

    Consider Jesus: Hebrews 3:1-19 Introduction: What is it that is having you waver in your faith? When we first put our faith and trust in Jesus Christ and acknowledge our need for a Savior, we get filled with joy and confidence. We are “on fire” for the Lord. Many of us start wavering in our faith ...read more

     | 7,067 views

    HOw do gain wisdom? Sometimes we find that what works in one situation backfires in another. But ecclesisastes helps us to see that the only source for wisdom is God himself.

    Wisdom is one of those things we all aim for as we go through life. We try to teach it to our children from an early age. We want them to avoid the mistakes that we or others have made. So what do we do? We teach them the same way people have done it for millennia: through the use of proverbs. You ...read more

    In this passage, the apostle Paul expresses his desire for the church to be filled with an understanding of what we have in Christ.

    Intro Sydney trainer Harry Telford was a keen student of thoroughbred bloodlines and spent countless hours poring over pedigree charts. He believed he had found a future champion in a colt that was shortly due to sell in New Zealand. The colt was listed for the Trentham Sales in 1927. Harry ...read more

    I preached this at my grandmother’s funeral. She was 88 and althogh her health had been declining, her death was very sudden. Her last request of me was to officiate at her funeral, which I did and was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my ministry.

    (Reading of the obituary) I think it’s pretty safe to say that this day came as a great shock to almost every one of us in this room here today. While we knew that Grandma wasn’t in the best of health, and had some past health issues a little over 4 years ago, none of us thought that we’d be ...read more

    Scripture Introduction My sister sent me a newsletter from Timberdoodle, a supplier for homeschooling families.

    Hard Times - Better Than Evian Water Series

     | 12,135 views

    Hard times and difficult circumstances are not an argument for the absence of God in our lives; Hard times and difficult circumstances are in fact, an argument for the presence of God in our lives.

    We assume that sailing through life with ease is a sign that God is with us. We assume that when a tragedy happens, God was looking the other way. We assume that when we find ourselves out in a desert standing in the middle of nothing but dirt and rocks, we assume that there has been some mistake. ...read more

    Jesus teaches us about peace, a perfect place he has prepared for us, and promises he will return so that we spend eternity with him.

    Text: “Let not your heart be troubled…” (John 14:1). What kind of life do you think Jesus wants us to live? Does He want us to be worried and uptight? Does He want us to dwell on things that will probably never come about? Does He want us to waste our time feeling sorry for ourselves? Does He ...read more
