    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 20, 2013
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,848 views

    A look at the fact that the Magi did not come to Bethlehem but to Nazareth. The sermon uses that truth to talk about following God's direction instead of the man's leading.

    STAR OF BETHLEHEM MYTH: The star led the Magi to Bethlehem. - We’ve all seen this in a hundred Christmas plays. - Unfortunately, it doesn’t happen to be the way that the Bible actually says the story happened. - This morning I want to talk about the way the Bible says the story ...read more

    What Happens When We Get Tired Of Waiting On God’s Answer?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 20, 2013
    based on 2 ratings
     | 9,404 views

    A look at the consequences of trying to manufacture an answer rather than waiting on God to come through for us.

    OUR SITUATION: We have a real problem and God seems to be late. - Genesis 16:1, 3. - Verse 3 notes that they’d been living in Canaan for 10 years at this point. Ten years is a long time to wait, especially for something as meaningful as a child. - We don’t want to minimize the ...read more

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 27, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,702 views

    A look at Peter denying three times and at five examples of times when we are embarrassed of Jesus.

    EVERYONE LOVES JESUS IN CHURCH: Whether I’m embarrassed of Jesus often changes with a spike in the cost. - Mark 14: 27-31, 50, 67-68. - It’s easy to love Jesus when there’s no cost involved. It’s easy to love Him when there’s no pressure. - As the costs increase, ...read more

    (Slide 1) On New Year’s Day, 1929, Georgia Tech played the University of California in the Rose Bowl. A UC player named Roy Riegels, who was their center, recovered a fumble for California and in the confusion of evading some of the Georgia Tech tacklers, started running sixty-five yards… in the ...read more

    This sermon examines how God sees potential within us that we may not see ourselves.

    HIDING OUT: We see ourselves as weak and powerless. - Judges 6:11. - Here we meet Gideon for the first time. - A telling detail that is at first obscure is that he was “threshing wheat in a winepress.” What’s that mean? A winepress was a small pit carved out of rocky ground. ...read more

    The Danger Of A "Good Enough" Faith

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 28, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,051 views

    This message focuses on the abundance that Christ wants to do through His servants and the "good enough" mentality of many people claiming faith. It focuses on the verse speaking of "everyone who has will be given more."

    What This Is NOT Saying: “Jesus is a reverse Robin Hood” – because this is not about our money, but our responsibilities. - Luke 19:13, 16, 18, 24. - v. 24 makes the master (i.e. Jesus) sound like a reverse Robin Hood, taking from the poor and giving to the rich. - vv. 13, 16, ...read more

    When the calendar turns to a new year, many of us take the time to reflect on the past. We think about the good times and the difficult times we have been through. We think about opportunities we might have missed or things we might have done better. That

    Here we are at the beginning of a new year. At the Watchnight service, we talked a little bit about resolutions. I don’t know whether you make resolutions or not, but what I do know is that you have probably done some reflecting on the past year. That what we do when the calendar turns. ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,942 views

    It’s a wonderful thing when people finally decide to obey God and get busy doing the work He’s called them to do. But there’s always a problem when we decide to get to work, isn’t there? The problem is not necessarily that work’s hard. Most people don’t m

    Week before last, we started looking at this little book of Haggai. And we saw how the Jewish remnant had been in exile in Babylon for many years. The temple had been destroyed, Jerusalem had been destroyed, and they were far away from home. But after a period of time, God allowed them to come ...read more

    based on 25 ratings
     | 16,815 views

    No matter how bad we’d like to, we can’t undo the past. God is all-powerful but there are some things He won’t do. He will not change the past. But he’ll do something even better. Even though He won’t change the past, He will give you a fresh start for th

    Do you ever wish you could just start over? Staples has made a fortune with their easy button commercials. It would be nice if there was such a thing as an easy button, but you know what I’d rather have? I’d rather have an undo button. Can you imagine having a button that allowed ...read more

    When you’re knee-deep into a project, you can tell how well things are going and they weren’t going well for the people in today’s passage. God promised the people a fresh start, but that didn’t change the fact that what they were called to do was impossi

    Have you ever faced something that looked impossible? Maybe you were diagnosed with something that seems impossible to overcome. Maybe you’re facing a family crisis and you can’t see the way out.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,563 views

    This message looks at how we sometimes block the door for spiritual seekers and keep them from finding God.

    BIG IDEA: We can point people to God, but we can also stand in their way. - Matthew 23:13. - The idea here is blocking the door or pointing someone in the wrong direction. - This is something we should pause and consider how heartbreaking the image is: someone seeking spiritual truth, someone ...read more

Here is Matthew 23, it shows up in vv. 3, 13, 15, 23, 25, 27, 29. - There is a lot of truth to the accusation for the way we behave as the church today. We need ...read more

    PHARISEE RELIGION: “Got-to’s” and guilt lead to a heavy burden. - Matthew 23:4. - Cf. v. 3 – The Pharisees don’t practice what they preach, so they’re putting out a standard, but the “unwashed masses” don’t know how to avoid the guilt. In the ...read more
