    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Nov 26, 2007
    based on 6 ratings
     | 6,041 views

    We all have expectations of who Jesus is and what He is about. Are yours correct? Jesus’ family, friends, and even His enemies had misconceptions about His real purpose.

    What is Jesus to you? It’s an honest question. A recent online poll found that 37% said Jesus may or may not have even existed and that there is no way to know for sure, 23% said that the gospels are a bunch of fictional tales, 16% say that he may have existed but so many myths have grown up around ...read more

    Fantastic! Outstanding! Incredible! Thanks to blockbuster movies, thrill rides, and Madison Avenue ad campaigns, we have come to expect that if life isn’t “sensational,” something must be wrong.

     | 13,506 views

    The Christmas Story is about the Emmanuel Factor – the presence of Jesus – Heaven Invading Earth. And because Jesus is the same yesterday, today and forever, we can expect miracles in our lives today!

    THE EMMANUEL FACTOR: WHEN HEAVEN INVADES EARTH HEALING AND MIRACLE SERVICE OPENING TEXT: "Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel," which is translated, "God with us.” (Matthew 1:23). THE BIG IDEA: The Christmas Story is about ...read more

    Titus and Timothy are both told to select appropriate men to lead the church as Elders. But what does God expect of these leaders and how can we (as the congregation) assist them in their role?

    The Pace Of Provision

    Contributed by Steve Ely on Oct 1, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,438 views

    We want provision right now! Send in the offering and expect the miracle, the new car, or the new house. However, there is a pace to provision that we must understand and in which we must participate.

    The Pace of Provision We like to talk about provision. You can get shouted down when you begin to talk about provision. I may not get an “amen” when I preach about lust, gluttony, or anger, but when I get off on provision you can bet amens are coming. American Christianity is particular is ...read more

    Disillusioned Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,528 views

    It's easy to be disillusioned about God when he doesn't do what we expect but in reality we are disillusioned about ourselves and don't really know God.

    Have you ever been disillusioned? What does it mean? To open someone’s eyes; to shatter someone’s illusions; to pop or break someone’s bubble and to prick or put a pin in someone’s balloon. This expression refers to the fragile nature of both soap bubbles and human ...read more

     | 4,795 views

    Have we allowed negativism to take root. 24 eyes see the promise land... only 4 eyes see the God of the promise. Where are we focusing? What are we expecting?

    based on 4 ratings
     | 15,724 views

    Sermon on Following up with our life, after Easter is over. Acts 2 gives us the road map on what to do and when to expect those signs and miracles from God.

    Here we are, two weeks after Easter, the crucifixion is over, the resurrection is over, sort of. At least all the celebration is over, too bad for that. We have studied about the Road to Emmaus and the two men who met Christ there. Those two men that were quiet, and heartbroken and thought that ...read more

    As the disciples waited for the "fire of heaven" to fall on them, they waited with expectation and preparation. It was not sitting still. I was getting ready. We as believers need to be engaged in the same preparation for God to work in us.

    Jesus' entry into Jerusalem brings two things to light: 1) The crowds expected Him to act immediately on their behalf, and, 2) His actions will always be for and to honor His Father, first!

    Jesus Enters Jerusalem Mark 11:1-17 - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” - Jesus’ teachings, while difficult for some to deal with, are always timely -- God always allows us to hear from Him at just the right time - Read Mark 11:1-11 ∆ Point 1 ...read more

    "Merry Xmas!" Whenever you try to take "Christ" out of "Christmas" -- all you have left are "Xs". Excesses, Exhaustion, and Exchanges. But we were made for Expectation, Exaltation, and Examination.

    THE CHRISTMAS X-PERIENCE Text: John 1:1-14 (Suggested opening video: Christmas With A Capital C) There are many beautiful traditions and practices that have come to be associated with Christmas. And many of them aren’t what you would call “Christian traditions or practices” ...read more

    Genesis 28:10-22 Introduction: Promises are not the vision given to people. Promises are given beyond imagination against odd situations.
