Sermons on Feeding Of The Five Thousand:

A Blind Beggar

Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 27, 2012

This poor man was weighed down by two great evils-blindness and poverty. It’s sad enough to be blind, but if a blind man is wealthy, there are thousands of things that he could buy to make himself comfortable and to cheer him up. But to be both blind an

Clothed In Humility - 1 Peter 5:5b Series

Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on Feb 16, 2025

Pride has a thousand faces. It's possible to think you do not struggle with pride because you don't have the kind someone else has. But you may have a different kind that flies under the radar.

1 Peter 5:5 Young men, in the same way be submissive to those who are older. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because, "God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble." 6 Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up ...read more

Sermon # 50 - Which Side Are You On? Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Feb 19, 2025

As Jonah fretted and fumed that God withheld His judgement on the people of Nineveh, God saw a people who were ignorant and could not decipher between right and wrong. God calls the church to disciple their members, and grow them in maturity so all will be found in God’s eternal Kingdom.

Let us thank the Lord for the many lessons we learnt from the life of Jonah. We have come to the final part of this study. When I began this series, I did not expect that it would be such a long one, and I am grateful to the Lord for all that we have learned in this process, and all glory to God ...read more

Thinking Like A Servant Series

Contributed by David Owens on Feb 22, 2016

I have borrowed a lot of this sermon from Rick Warren's book The Purpose Driven Life, chapter 34, "Thinking Like a Servant." In that chapter, Warren suggests that there are five attitudes that servants need to have.

Introduction: A. Someone has said, “Some minds are like concrete; thoroughly mixed and permanently set.” 1. How about you? How is your thinking? 2. Are you spiritually minded? Do you have the mind of a servant? 3. Or is your mind like concrete, all mixed up and permanently set in a ...read more

The Sprinkled Blood

Contributed by John Gaston on Apr 5, 2023

Five places in Scripture refer to the sprinkling of blood. It brings preservation, confirms covenants, purifies from uncleanness, sanctifies, and gives access. It's at the center of God's great redemption!

THE SPRINKLED BLOOD Heb. 12:18-25 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. One of my pet-peeves is Christians with Christian bumper stickers driving discourteously or dangerously – it’s a bad testimony. 2. One guy had a bumper sticker, “Jesus is my Co-Pilot.” He got in a bad wreck. A policeman came along and ...read more

Love Is Sacrificial

Contributed by Joel Pankow on Aug 25, 2005

When Jesus asks, "do you love me," it fills us with repentance and an eagerness to show our Lord that we do love him. Peter was forgiven and given a new opportunity to feed Jesus sheep. Who are your sheep? How can you respond?

August 28, 2005 Proclaim Peace Through Jesus - in Love - based on John 21:15-19 After Jesus rose from the dead he asked Peter three simple questions - “do you love me?” When Peter answered with a resounding “yes,” Jesus then replied, “feed my sheep.” Although this reinstatement to ministry ...read more

How A Church Can Change For The Better

Contributed by Rick Duncan on Jan 6, 2003

In this message, we explore five paradigm shifts that a church can make to have a better future. This is a kind of "halftime" talk from a pastor/coach to the congregation/team.

To compete for a championship, during a game a great team has to make some adjustments. I sometimes think of the New Year as a kind of halftime. My personal internal calendar starts in August when the kids go back to school. The first semester is over. Now, it’s the halftime before the second ...read more

The Handy Guide To Guidance Series

Contributed by Steve Moore on Oct 2, 2004

This sermon seeks to provide a better understanding as to how God guides His people. It takes an illustration of a hand, with its five fingers, to give a practical insight into the subject.

INTRODUCTION Today’s talk is entitled How does God guide us? As we consider this subject, I would like to make some assumptions – 1) We assume that God exists. 2) That God wants to guide us. 3) That we want him to guide us. I will assume we all hold a positive response to all of these ...read more

Finding Purpose In The Potters Hands Series

Contributed by Rich Dunbar on Mar 21, 2005

This sermon utilizes five questions from a short video clip from sermonspice.com called "Potter’s Hand". The answers to those questions are found in the passage.

Within the seemingly mundane conversation in this passage, I believe we can find the answers to some of life’s most profound questions. 1. Who am I? IF I am… A man made in the image of God – Gen 1:26 A sinner in which that image is flawed – Rom 3:23 THEN… I am not worthy of worship, only God is. ...read more

Do you remember pot-bellied pigs? They were one of the passing fads from the 1980s – that decade when all of us had big hair, big glasses and really fuzzy sweaters. Some of us also had pot-bellied pigs. Around our house, pigs were for eating and not for petting. The “pet pig craze” never caught ...read more
