    James tells us that "no one can tame the tongue." So, what do we do about it? How can we recognize when we've misused our tongue and spoken curses that bring shame to Christ?

    OPEN: Words have meaning. (We showed a video clip by www.vidangel.com/ that explained the impact of curse words on our families using paint balls fired at a family watching TV to visualize the sharp increase of swear words in our “entertainment” mediums) (You can find the video we used at ...read more

    Almost everybody can quote Jesus' statement: "Judge not". But are they quoting Him properly? Is there something in His words that say more than most people think?

    OPEN: Little Tommy was out on the playground during recess and was picking on the other children on the playground. One of his favorite ways of taunting the other kids was make ugly faces at them. Mrs. Smith was the teacher in charge of supervising recess and she saw Tommy doing this. She took ...read more

    Peter said to the lame man "such as I have give I thee". What did he have to offer that made the difference that day, and what do WE have that can make the difference today?

    Years ago, I learned this cute little camp song. If you know it, sing along with me. “Peter and John went to pray – they met a lame man on the way He held out his palm and asked for an alm – and this is what Peter did say 'Silver and gold have I none, but such as I have give I thee In the name of ...read more

     | 2,399 views

    This sermon demenstrates how Jesus is willing to give us so much... even the shirt off his back, but so often we take so little from him. Are we ready to accept all the gifts that Christ offers us?

    [This sermon goes very closely with the sermon I preached the next week titled “Toy King.” In this sermon I actually take my dress shirt off (with a white shirt underneath of course) and cut it into little pieces for the congregation to take home. (Leave a few big pieces of shirt left over for ...read more

    As a Christian, see yourself in God’s Kingdom everyday and live accordingly!

    Let’s start with this question: What do you need to have a kingdom? A kingdom needs a ruler! A kingdom needs people or “subjects”! A kingdom needs a realm or a place! Jesus Christ often talked about the Kingdom of God. The kingdom of God is mentioned over 70 times in the New ...read more

    God urges us to be reconciled through Jesus Christ! We can only be brought to peace with God through His Son Jesus. Let's commit our lives to Him and be brought to peace with God.

    2 Corinthians 5:14-21 14 For Christ's love compels us, because we are convinced that one died for all, and therefore all died. 15 And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again. 16 So from now on we regard no one from ...read more

    Jesus Raises Eyebrows: Biblical Over Traditional Series

     | 4,990 views

    Jesus was controversial because he was aligned with the truth and put God's Word and work above the inherited traditions that had accumulated over the centuries. So we should be bound by Scripture and mission.

    Jesus Raises Eyebrows: Biblical Over Traditional (Mark 2:1-28) 1. This week a bit of strange news came out of Minnesota: DULUTH, Minn., June 6 (UPI) -- A Minnesota woman says she didn't know she was pregnant until she went into labor while running a marathon.

    We must remember that this earthly life is not all that there is. We must keep looking beyond our earthly life, which is passing away. We must remain invested in the world in order to do the work God has given us to do.

    Do you ever get the feeling that time is passing by quickly? Do you ever feel that you have too much to do and not enough time to do it? If so, then you can probably appreciate the sense of urgency that Paul has in the reading from 1 Corinthians 7:29-31, which we heard earlier in today’s ...read more
