    The Consequences Of Obeying Or Disobeying God

    Contributed by Craig Condon on May 19, 2015
     | 10,773 views

    God always plans things so that we will have the chance to witness about Jesus. We have to be open to these chances. We must always be ready to witness about Jesus. To do so, we must be familiar with God's Word.

    The readings from 1 Samuel 13:5-18 and Acts 8:26-40 are interesting studies of contrasts. The contrast is the consequences of disobeying God verses the consequences of obeying God. The reading from 1 Samuel 13:5-18 shows what happens when we disobey God. King Saul was told to wait and let the ...read more

    The Fall - The Ultimate Guide To The Perfect Family Series

    Contributed by Eduardo Quintana on Mar 10, 2020
     | 2,852 views

    We’re not going to rehearse all of the familiar details of Adam and Eve’s family flaws. What we’re going to look at is HOW GOD RESPONDED to their flaws. Because it is observing how God responded that gives us hope.

    Ladies and Gentlemen, let me ask you a question and be honest with yourself. Is your family perfect or flawed? If you are honest with me today, you will agree that your family has quite a few flaws. And so do you for that matter! The fact is that we are all flawed, but we’re not flawed beyond hope! ...read more

    Let’s Go To Bethlehem!

    Although Luke’s account of the shepherds going to see baby Jesus is filled with familiar details, the thread that ties the whole thing together is what the shepherds were told about the child. We hear that connection three times in these verses.

    “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.” Those words spoken by the shepherds on the first Christmas Eve are familiar to us. An angel of the Lord had brought them “good news that will cause great joy for all the people.” And the angel told ...read more

    Awe In Worship Series

     | 7,295 views

    We don’t reverence God as we ought, when He is safely tucked inside the boxes of our understanding, our theology, our control, or in the box of our familiarity. What happens when He gets out of our box?

    Encountering God – Part 8 – Awe in Worship Review Last week we talked about why God’s glory or presence doesn’t show up in worship or in a gathering of His people. Some folks would notice if He wasn’t there, others would see no difference. I talked a bit about three reasons why God’s glory ...read more

    The Parable Of The Good Father

    Contributed by Thomas Donelan on Aug 4, 2010

     | 9,238 views

    Today we will look at a familiar passage of scripture commonly called the parable of the prodigal son but I feel a fitting title would be the parable of the good father. We see the selfishness of the two sons set off against the love of the good father.

    Introduction Today we will be studying a fairly familar passage of scripture, familar to most of us as the parable of the prodigal son but most aptly called in my opinion the parable of the good father. Luke 15:11-12 And he said, A certain man had two sons: 12 And the younger of them said to his ...read more

     | 9,959 views

    The theme is a familiar one in all periods of church history, including today: the apparent impunity with which ruthless men go their self-seeking way, regardless of God or man, allowing neither morality nor humanity to set limits to their methods or.....

    When Jesus resurrected the first person he appeared to was Mary Magdalene. We might be familiar with that and the appearance to his disciples, but there was another one between Mary and the Apostles. Let's look at Jesus' encounter with the two on the road to Emmaus.

    WALKING WITH THE RESURRECTED JESUS Luke 24:13-35 When Jesus resurrected the first person he appeared to was Mary Magdalene, who thought he was the gardener at first.

    Rembrandt’s depictions of Jesus were even more controversial in the 17 century. His familiarity with the Jewish community in his native Netherlands moved him to paint Jesus with a Jewish appearance. People were shocked! Jesus looking Jewish?

    Our history calls us to an optimism that often is difficult to support. We do live in a changing time. The familiar has gone for most of us. Too often this creates within us a feeling of uncertainty and confusion rather than hope and optimism.

    Most of us are use to earning stuff. Or to trading one thing for another. That's how the world works. That's not how God works. This sermon explores the grace of God through a familiar and wonderful parable of Jesus

    A slightly different twist on the familiar story of Mary and Martha. Using an analogy of Kentucky Fried Chicken, how do we act when life treats us to chicken wings? Have faith in God because He is bigger than our problems.

    Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, when was the last time you brought home a family-size bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken? I imagine more people will be buying those again since KFC announced they no longer use partially hydrogenated fats for frying. What portion do you usually choose from the ...read more
