     | 6,595 views

    We come to the most shocking act of Jesus in his brief career - touching an untouchable.

    Introduction I’ve coined a new name for Jesus. I call him Jesus the Great Gasper. He is the man who makes people gasp, who causes gaspers. Consider what he did in a twenty-four hour period.

    The Terrifying Question Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,943 views

    The problem with the disciples is not that they didn’t have enough faith to trust Jesus in the storm. The problem is that their faith was not directed at the real Jesus.

    Introduction As we move along in our study of Mark, we would do well to review the purpose and theme of the gospel. Mark and the other gospel writers had an agenda, which was to tell the “good news” about Jesus Christ. They were not writing biographies to give insight into the man ...read more

    Are you like Herod - haunted by your sins but you don't catch on that your hope is in Jesus?

    Introduction No doubt I now grew very pale; --but I talked more fluently, and with a heightened voice. Yet the sound increased --and what could I do? It was a low, dull, quick sound --much such a sound as a watch makes when enveloped in cotton. I gasped for breath --and yet the officers heard it ...read more

    Nothing is easier than entering the kingdom of God; nothing is more difficult. Nothing is simpler than receiving eternal life; nothing has greater obstacles to overcome.

     | 14,935 views

    Only 3 Hebrews stood when the whole world bowed. Likewise, we Christians found ourselves on the losing end of the culture war in America. Same-sex marriage, abortion, & marijuana won. Do we throw up our hands and say, "There's no use fighting it?" No! We

     | 24,110 views

    It's very easy for us to confuse our personal preferences with what the Bible teaches regarding an issue. Thus it's best to allow others the right to decide concerning principles or matters of conscience

    ROMANS 14: 1-9 INEVITABLE DIFFERENCES OF OPINION [1 Corinthians 8:1-11] Must Christians agree on everything? Sometimes we, as Christians, are quick to judge others as to their relationship with God or the way they live their life. We know that there is a lot of false teaching and casual ...read more

    Mark presents the only act of devotion to Jesus we will see until his death.

    Introduction The Passion begins. Beginning now through the end of chapter 15, we may as well title the section, “The Death of Jesus,” for every scene is about his inevitable death. From early on Mark had intimated Jesus’ death, building the tension as his story progressed. The ...read more

    based on 85 ratings
     | 209,758 views

    Change is in the atmosphere, we are in a season of change, the question is not "will there be change?" but will it be for the better or will it be for the worse?" you must decide.

    Deut 2:1-3 Then we turned, and took our journey into the wilderness by the way of the Red sea, as the LORD spake unto me: and we compassed mount Seir many days. 2 And the LORD spake unto me, saying, 3 Ye have compassed this mountain long enough: turn you northward.

     | 6,740 views

    How well are we connecting, communing, growing, serving, and sharing as a Church family and as individuals? These 5 purposes (fellowship, worship, discipleship, service, and evangelism) must remain central for us to be and do who God has called us to be a

    If churches want to help their leaders be all they can be, they must pay them well, treat them fairly, and pick them wisely.

    When I get a chain letter in my Email, I usually ignore it; but sometime ago, I came across this chain letter, which gave me a chuckle. It was written to church members looking for the perfect pastor. It said… “The perfect pastor preaches exactly 10 minutes, but thoroughly expounds ...read more

    An Accurate "I" Exam Series

    Contributed by Rob Jansons on Sep 14, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,679 views

    This is a New Year's sermon when our culture preaches "believe in yourself" and Scripture teaches us what happens when we do. It is a prelude sermon to a covert series on Calvinism.

    It is the first Sunday of the new year. In our culture this is a time of getting psyched up for a new year of doing our best, setting some ambitious goals, trying harder, putting our best foot forward. Maybe you expect a little encouragement from your church; give us some spiritual justification ...read more
