  • Personal Faith First

    Contributed by Timothy Darling on Jan 17, 2007
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,184 views

    We cannot expect to help others follow Christ well, if we haven’t learned how to do it ourselves. We must give attention to our own spiritual walk if we are to be effective disciples of Christ.

    Personal Faith First Luke 4:38-39 Imagine taking your car to be fixed by someone who has not prepared himself in car repair. Yep, that’s a Chevy! If that person’s car is sitting on blocks and the pieces are strewn about the yard, you might have questions. What is that car all about, an on ...read more

    Contributed by Jimmy Chapman on Jul 21, 2007
    based on 28 ratings
     | 30,795 views

    We’re not surprised when we grow physically; we expect it. If, by chance, growth doesn’t occur, we immediately know something is wrong and attempt to uncover the problem. The same is true spiritually

    WHY WE DON’T GROW Judges 17:13-15 Statistics show the average productivity of a Christian’s spiritual life is less than three years. Tonight I want to bring encouragement to those who are sidetracked and to strengthen those who are on the right track. Billy Sunday used to say, “If we Christians ...read more

    In our country, we are encouraged by some to put our trust in politicians who we expect to bring about great change and increased godliness. But this passage gives us fair warning about doing just that.

    Passage: Acts 12:19b-25 Intro: It’s interesting that God has providentially brought us to this passage on our 4th of July weekend. 1. there is always a danger lurking for every human being. 2. it is the danger to worship things of this world instead of God. PP Romans 1:25 3. it is a general danger ...read more

  • No Resolutions Just Commitments

    Contributed by Mark Haines on Jan 7, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,023 views

    Jesus calls us to make cross-carrying commitments. These are not resolutions that can be broken and forgotten in a matter of days. When a person picks up a cross, it’s a one-way trip. No one expects to come back.

    I HATE NEW YEAR’S RESOLUTIONS For nearly a decade, I said, “Next January, I will start eating right and exercising.” You can tell what happened with my resolutions. NOTHING. I did not start eating healthy foods. I did not start exercising, but that all changed last January 14th. I had a ...read more

    New believers have many misconceptions about what they should expect now that they are saved. This message message deals with two great questions: What our blessed hope is not. And what is "The Blessed Hope" of the Christian!

    Title: "What is Our Blessed Hope?" Introduction: What is the "Blessed hope" of the Christian? Many people entered into Christianity much in the same way that people enter into marriage. They have misconception. Marriage is not all honeymoon, fun, and bliss. Nor is Christianity! Using today’s ...read more

    Rom. 15:7-17 shows us several actions that are appropriate and should be expected from the people of God. Sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is accept one another and overlook perceived faults.

    based on 19 ratings
     | 14,996 views

    Though the prophet was asking questions as complaining man so often does, & maybe not even expecting an answer, God responds. The Lord is not indifferent or insensitive. He is concerned about the affairs of earth & especially the conduct of His people.

    Habakkuk 1:5-11 GOD’S PREPARED AN ANSWER Though the prophet was asking questions as complaining man so often does, and maybe not even expecting an answer, God responds.

    Some of us are a little bit lame in our life because our life has gotten off track. Our expectations of the things of this world let us down, and we need to refocus on the person of Jesus Christ.

    I’m glad I got to speak about Acts chapter 3, because chapter 3 is kind of like one of those first huge miracles of the Church after the day of Pentecost, after the Holy Spirit was given. I want to pick up on the story because...now Peter has just received the Holy Spirit. He came on 120 people. He ...read more
