Undeniable Jesus

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 24, 2018

I was reminded this week about the power and influence a person’s testimony can have on others, religious or not. Saints where are our stories of faith? Where are our testimonies to the power of Jesus name? Have our voices become muted to the truth?

Acts 4:1-22 Undeniable Jesus Message: Oscar Wilde has been attributed with the phrase “no good deed goes unpunished”. The phrase suggest that in order to accomplish a truly good deed one has to suffer bad consequences in order to see a good outcome. Much of Christian ministry is like this. We ...read more

The Nature Of True Fasting

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 25, 2013

True fasting will lead the liberated soul to seek relief and liberty for others.

THE NATURE OF TRUE FASTING. Isaiah 58:1-12. Surprisingly, the only place where the law of Moses commands fasting is in the “affliction of soul” associated with the Day of Atonement (Leviticus 16:29-31; Leviticus 23:27-32; Numbers 29:7). This is apt, as it immediately associates fasting with ...read more

Why Have You Sent For Me?

Contributed by Steven Cordle on Feb 14, 2018

A look at the work of the preacher. This is the first sermon I preach in a new congregation. I received the original outline from Wayne Burger at the Bear Valley Bible Institute in Denver and modified it over the years.

Change is something new and exciting. Not only that, it can be scary because when things change there is a certain unknown element we face. What will change bring? Will it be for the good or bad? Will this work? Did I make the right decision? All of these questions and thoughts are natural ...read more

How To Handle A Sanballat

Contributed by Brady Cook on Jan 6, 2022

Usually, when we talk about Nehemiah, we focus on the wall. But what about the conditions he built it in -- namely, discouragement? - How are you supposed to focus on doing God's Work when others are trying to constantly tear you down?

https://hillsidechurchofchrist.com/how-to-handle-sanballat-and-tobiah/ Usually, when we have a sermon from Nehemiah 4, we fixate on a single verse: “The wall was joined together to half its height, for the people had a mind to work.” (Neh. 4:6) We then dissect this verse and what it means to have ...read more

Resurrection Sunday: He Is Risen!

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 26, 2021

As I journeyed to see family this last week I drove through the great woods of Wisconsin. And I looked at the trees along the road, and they looked like bundled up cord wood ready for the fire.

Sermon On Contrition

Contributed by William Meakin on Sep 26, 2021

Contrition is defined as a state of feeling remorseful and penitent.

Washington Irving, an American short story writer, once remarked: "There is a sacredness in tears. They are not the mark of weakness, but of power.

Great Expectations

Contributed by Larry Grant on Sep 28, 2025

Whose Image Is This? Premium Sermon

Contributed by PRO Premium on Oct 24, 2023

This sermon explores the balance between fulfilling our earthly responsibilities and maintaining our spiritual identity, using Jesus' teachings on paying taxes as a guide.

Jesus was obviously an amazing teacher and rabbi. Throughout the course of his ministry I imagine that he answered thousands of questions about God, the law, and living a life of faith. But near the end of His earthly ministry, some questions came with ulterior motives. Many of those asking were ...read more

Standing In The Gap Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 4, 2016

The first 3 chapters of Revelation have often been seen as separate from the rest of the book. But that doesn't make any sense. Why would Jesus spend 3 chapters on local churches who were not part of the rest of the story?

OPEN: This morning I’m going to teach you a little about something that’s called “Hermeneutics”. Hermeneutics is the description of how to read and understand your Bible. When I was in Bible College I had a professor who told us that whenever the Bible had a lot to say on a ...read more

Hold Fast What You Have Series

Contributed by Adam Deibert on May 7, 2004

From the church of Thyatira we learn that we fall from grace when we allow any other authority than Jesus Christ to rule in our lives, and His church is weakened by rebellion against His established church leadership.

If there’s one thing we’ve learned as we’ve studied the first three churches of Revelation, it’s that there’s nothing new under the sun. As we’ve taken the time to look so far at these churches, we can see that no matter what we as a church are going through at this point in history – whatever it ...read more

Psalm 12 Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 15, 2018

The opening words suggest that this psalm is an appeal for help during bad times when evil men dominate. There are times when sin seems rampant, sweeping all before it like a tidal wave.

March 3, 2014 Tom Lowe Psalm 12 Title: To the chief Musician. Upon the Sheminith*, A Psalm of David. *Sheminith (eighth), a musical term found in the title of (Psalms 6:1). A similar direction is found in the title of (Psalms 12:1) Comp. 1Chr 15:21. It seems most probable that Sheminith denotes ...read more

Careless Words

Contributed by Michael Stark on Sep 21, 2014

Speech betrays the heart. Thus, Jesus cautions those who will follow Him to review their words.
