    Contributed by Dr. Jerry N. Watts on Jan 4, 2011
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,485 views

    In this world we are told that climbing the ladder, stepping on other people, and even "being served" is a path to greatness - the Bible teaches something entirely different.

     | 4,404 views

    As followers of Jesus, we must argue our case fairly, even when our opponents do not. They do not set our agenda.

    Guilty Until Proven Guilty (Acts 6:8-15) 1. Many changes come to us a step at a time. I came across of illustration of this regarding trapping wild pigs. You catch wild pigs by finding a suitable place in the woods and putting corn on the ground. The pigs find it and begin to come everyday to ...read more

    Contributed by Paul Clemente on Jan 5, 2009
     | 7,681 views

    Actions without consideration of God, even if the world approves them, will lead to troubles and this statement not only has personal ramifications but also societal ones!

    Anyone know what the Moabites or Ammonites were? No, they are not like termites! The Moabites and the Ammonites were descendants of Lot, Abraham’s nephew. Were the Moabites and the Ammonites friends or enemies of Israel?? Here’s how the Bible describes them: The Moabites are described ...read more

    based on 7 ratings
     | 13,635 views

    13th in a series from Ecclesiastes. Life in the real world requires us to choose things which are better, even though they may not be perfect.

    Although it has been around in some form for quite some time, it is only in this century that so called “reality TV” has become a staple of television programming both here in the United States and around the world. Because of the popularity of shows like “Survivor” and “American Idol” as well as ...read more

     | 3,465 views

    Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. John 7 shows us the struggle many had with hearing Jesus, even his brothers.

    Chapter 7 opens with Jesus having to stay clear of Judea because he was in danger of being killed there. Is there anywhere you know of that people are looking to kill you if you show up? Just imagine that. Next we learn that there is a feast of Tabernacles coming up and Jesus’ brothers tell him ...read more

  • King Herod's Early Release Program Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,482 views

    No one, not a single person in this story expects Peter to be released. Not Herod, not the guards, not the people of the church, not even Peter himself. Still, God answers the prayer.

    Note to reader: I have hot-links to various subjects in this sermon. The document with the active links can be found in PDF form at this web address: http://www.firstpresanchorage.org/Sermons.htm (The sermon is titled the same: "King Herod’s Early Release Program") The links are not active in this ...read more

  • The Horror Of Violence Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 7, 2009
     | 3,931 views

    Jesus was, in fact, nonviolent, even when he used force to expel the merchants who desecrated the Temple. Violence is incompatible with human development.

    Feast of Dedication of St. John Lateran November 9, 2009 Let’s confront a misconception about today’s Gospel, and that has to do with Jesus and violence. What Jesus did to the moneychangers and pigeon salesmen who had coopted the Court of the Gentiles was to clean them out. He used force to ...read more

    Sometimes our routines keep God from working, so He brings change and even persecution to awaken us as to what He is doing.

    The Transition from “Jews for Jesus” to “Semi-Jews for Jesus” (Acts 8:1-8) 1. People try playing all sorts of tricks. Two friends run into each other while walking their dogs. One suggests lunch. The other says, "They won’t let us in a restaurant with pets." Undeterred, the first guy and his ...read more

    based on 6 ratings
     | 6,230 views

    Persistent prayer is commanded to us by Christ. If even the unjust judge will respond to it for bad reasons, how much more will the Father respond for good ones?

    Asking and asking again Luke 18:1-8 What is your prayer life like? How long can you pray without stopping? I am not talking about standard written or memorized prayers, I am talking about speaking with God concerning what is on your heart and working to remember everything that should be prayed ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,432 views

    To receive God’s gifts and grace we need to let go of things, attitudes and even our understanding of how things should be.
