    Everything You Wanted To Know About Revenge But Never Thought You'd Hear In Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Dec 2, 2004
    based on 45 ratings
     | 6,544 views

    The desire for revenge and justice is part of being in God’s image. But, because sin corrupts us, and because our lives are intended to center around God, we must defer revenge (and sometimes justice) to Him.

    Everything You Wanted to Know About Revenge But Never Thought You’d Hear in Church (Romans 12:14, 17-21) 1. Today’s sermon has little to do with the subject of forgiveness. 2. The Bible is clear that forgiveness is crucial to the Christian life; it is the hallmark of our faith. 3. Not long ...read more

    Making Mountains Out Of Molehills

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 24, 2026
     | 80 views

    Small, unattended permissions become spiritual strongholds, but through Christ, every entrenched lie and pattern can be confronted, dismantled, and replaced with freedom.

    Most of the damage we do to our spiritual lives does not begin with big sins or dramatic failures. It begins with small things we underestimate. A reaction we excuse. A habit we postpone dealing with. A thought we repeat often enough that it starts to feel true. We tell ourselves, “This is ...read more

    Thoughts for the Lord’s Supper

    The Lord’s Supper I Corinthians 11:23-34 Prayer is the occupation of the would with its needs. Praise is the occupation of the soul with its blessings. Worship is the occupation of the soul with God Himself. True worship is the occupation of the heart, not with its needs, or even its blessings, ...read more

    Idol Minds

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 14, 2025
     | 179 views

    Idols seduce the mind and steal the heart, but Christ alone dethrones every false god and restores true worship, freedom, and identity.

    INTRODUCTION — THE ALTAR IN THE MIND If there is one truth humanity proves in every century, in every culture, in every language, it is this: We never stop worshiping. You can strip away temples, rituals, church buildings, religious vocabulary— you can call yourself modern, enlightened, ...read more

    Thoughts on preaching

    When a person is called to “trial preach”, he has a dilemma. How can he go into a church that he doesn't know in a community that he doesn't know and preach a sermon that is relevant to people he doesn't know? I'm at an advantage here because I live in this community and I'm active in ...read more

    What if every good or bad thought I have, has an impact on what I see in the mirror? What do you think you look like before God?

    What Does It Mean To "make Every Effort" To Enter The Kingdom? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 10, 2025
     | 244 views

    This passage has two troubling phrases: "make every effort" and "try . . . and not be able." What are we to do with those? And do they mean that God is setting up difficult barriers to get into the Kingdom?

    WHAT DOES "MAKE EVERY EFFORT" MEAN? It doesn’t mean that it’s nearly impossible but that you should focus your attention. - Luke 13:22-24a. - Jesus is asked an important question: “[A]re only a few people going to be saved?” (v. 23). - That's a great question. What is the nature of ...read more
