    We get a grip on life when we develop the proper frame of mind.

    “Getting A Grip On Life” John 21:1-23 I confess that I have never watched a full episode of the once popular television series The X Files. But I saw enough of it to know that it dealt with the super natural and the unexplainable in life. In its own unique way it demonstrated the ...read more

    Let Go And Let God

    Before we can “let God,” or allow Him to work in our life, we have to “let go.” We have to stop allowing ourselves to be controlled by the things of this world that hinder our usefulness to Him. Letting go and letting God is called faith.

    Our sermon this evening is entitled “Let Go and Let God.” The title is derived from a popular statement used among Christians today. Before we can “let God,” or allow Him to work in our life, we have to “let go,” or throw off the chains that hinder our usefulness to the Lord. We have to stop ...read more

    A study on Ephesians 4:17-32, this is the second in a series on how to clean up our lives by stopping what’s wrong, changing our thinking, and starting to do what’s right.

    How many of you are familiar with the television show “Trading Spaces”? It is my wife’s favorite show. If you are not familiar with it, let me explain it to you. Two couples who are neighbors and friends (hopefully) appear on this show. Each couple is paired with an interior designer and given ...read more

    We fail to experience a vital faith because we do not expect anything new, we operate out of preconceived notions, or we wait for authority figures to validate us.

    Takoma Park Baptist Church, Washington, DC, March 5, 1989 Anyone who works in an office or who has had to do either writing or typing knows that you do not proofread your own work. You just do not proofread your own work. Why not? Because the tendency is to see what we want to see, and what we ...read more

    Isaac: El Hijo De La Promesa Series

     | 390 views

    Resumen: Isaac es retratado a lo largo de su vida como un hombre de fe como su padre. Cuando leemos el relato del monte Moriah no leemos específicamente la reacción de Isaac, pero captamos la idea. Si Abraham confía en Dios con esto, entonces también lo haría su hijo Isaac.

    Abraham era un hombre de fe. Dios le habló en numerosas ocasiones. Cinco veces en Génesis se registra que Abraham construyó un altar a Dios. El altar en Betel Allí el Señor se apareció a Abram y le dijo: «Yo daré esta tierra a tu descendencia». ...read more

    Have you ever wondered why God placed perhaps the most important prophecy about His coming Messiah in Micah 5:2? This sermon explores that thought, and along the way sees both how contemporary Micah’s message was, and how wise and awesome in His planning

    We are not very patient people + Esp. when we want something done = Out of our control + "It’s coming..." = "So is Christmas" + Anxious anticipation for the something we want = Can’t hardly wait for it + As with Christmas = Christmas is coming = Can’t hardly wait for it + Sights, sounds, smells, ...read more

    What Are Your Expectations Of The Messiah?

    Contributed by Philip Gill on Feb 10, 2003

     | 7,039 views

    If John the Baptist had to make sure Jesus was the Messiah it may well have been because there were several examples upon which the expected messiah could be modelled. What are our expectations of the Messiah?

    When John heard in prison what the Messiah was doing, he sent word by his disciples and said to him, "Are you the one who is to come, or are we to wait for another?" Jesus answered them, "Go and tell John what you hear and see: the blind receive their sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, ...read more
