     | 2,376 views

    This sermon focuses on Jesus' calling of Levi (Matthew) and the legalistic attitudes that people often adopt about who is worthy of God's forgiveness and who is not.

    [Reading Mark 2:13-17] In today’s passage out of the book of Mark, we don’t find Jesus throwing a birthday party for a prostitute, but we do find him hanging out with some unsavory characters called tax collectors and other sinners because that is really what Jesus would do and that is what Jesus ...read more

    James reminds us that our words can be the most powerful force known to man. Words can set the course of individuals and nations. Consider what God has to say to us about the way we speak.

    “For we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body. Indeed, we put bits in horses’ mouths that they may obey us, and we turn their whole body. Look also at ships: although they are so large and are driven by fierce winds, ...read more

    Why are you a follower of JESUS? Is it because of His claims and promises. Is it because of His signs and wonders. Or is it because He is the only source to fill the need of your life.

    Title: Why People Follow Jesus Text: John 6:35, 47-54, 60-69 Introduction: 1. Some because they like what he said Luke 6:20-23 "Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.

    First Things First

    based on 17 ratings
     | 6,885 views

    Some form of the word “Seek” is used in the Bible over 150 times, therefore when we encounter a verse that clearly states we are to “seek first” something, that should clearly get our attention.

    First Things First Introduction Matthew 6:33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. The bible in different ways tells us what we need to seek for and what we should not seek. Examples – Leviticus 19:31 “‘Do not turn to mediums or seek ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 2,486 views

    It can be discouraging when we compare the raw faith and power of th first century church with what the church has become. Have we traded power for "silver and gold"?

    What happens after we are saved? Sometimes we treat salvation like a car wash - God cleans us up and then tells us not to get dirty again. But is that really grace?

    I can’t lift very much - I don’t know how much I bench press - and even though I exercise fairly regularly, I don’t consider myself buff. But if I had a human exoskeleton I sure could be! This machine is designed to turn ordinary men into supermen - you wear it around you and is made of ...read more

    In this difficult passage, we’re told that Jesus "preached unto the spirits in prison..." To understand the passage we need to answer the basic questions...How? When? Who? Where? And Why is Peter telling us this?
