    The Lost Sheep Series

    Contributed by Billy Kryger on Feb 6, 2003
    based on 70 ratings
     | 22,474 views

    First message in the series "God’s Lost and Found" from Luke 15. This message is deals with the fact that all are lost sheep in need of the Good Shepherd to find and carry them to the safety of the sheepfold.

    INTRODUCTION: Luke chapter 15 is what I like to call “God’s Lost and Found Chapter”. It is not three separate parables but rather one parable (v. 3) with three parts. Jesus uses three illustrations in this chapter to answer the Scribes’ and Pharisees’ accusation that He associated with ...read more

    First in a series on dealing with popular illusions. I can deal with not getting everybody to like me if I will live in integrity, love intentionally, let go of negative feelings, and leave it finally to God.

    More energy has been spent on this one thing than on building the Panama Canal, constructing the Great Pyramids, or creating the Interstate Highway system. More energy! More tears have been shed on this one item than on the depredations of poverty, the destruction wrought by great storms, or a ...read more

    "Forgivenss?"

    based on 9 ratings
     | 2,213 views

    Wasn’t it obvious that the reason why these four men had brought their paralytic friend to Christ was because they wanted to see their friend healed! Why did Jesus begin with a message on forgiveness first?

    Rather than giving you an entire message, here is a brief devotional thought for you to consider from the message that I preached this past Sunday Morning, enjoy: The text is in Mark Chapter two. Four men brought their paralytic friend to Christ. They wanted him healed. When they came to the ...read more

    10 Ways America Is Under Attack Exodus 20:1-17 America was again attacked this week, and in grander scale than on 9/11.

    based on 44 ratings
     | 12,893 views

    This is a first-person, expository sermon, told from the point of view of Micaiah, the Prophet of God. Micaiah tells the story of King Ahab and King Jehoshaphat, and the desire (or lack thereof) to know the will of God.

    “The Guided Missile” INTRODUCTION: Do you really want to know God’s will? A lot of people DON’T. WHY? BECAUSE … it might NOT be YOUR WILL. THEN … that becomes a problem. We have to choose between: o Doing what we KNOW is the will of God … BUT … what we DON’T REALLY WANT to do. o OR … ...read more

     | 14,395 views

    If we are to have genuine revival with the power of God flowing through us we must first have broken hearts – broken over our personal sin, the sins of the saints, and the sin of the world.

    BROKEN HEARTS PSALM 34:11-18 INTRODUCTION: Heart is used in Scripture as the most comprehensive term for the authentic person. It is the part of our being where we desire, deliberate, and decide. It has been described as "the place of conscious and decisive spiritual activity, the comprehensive ...read more

    Blessed Are Those Who Mourn Series

    Contributed by Frank Lay on Oct 12, 2004
    based on 76 ratings
     | 23,445 views

    The first step of a blessed life is the recognition that we are poor in spirit, that we have a deep need in our lives, a need caused by our sin. The second step is to mourn over our sin.

    BLESSED ARE THOSE WHO MOURN Matthew 5:4 The first beatitude confronted us with our deep need. "Blessed are the poor in spirit." The first step towards God is the recognition that we are sinners in desperate need of a Savior. That idea is frowned upon by the world today. However it is the ...read more

    In this sermon, I talk about repentance from indifference: first, the devastation that indifference has caused to the people of Judah in the book of Joel; secondly, what repentance should consist of in our lives today.

    Say “It’s about my heart!” I. The background from which Joel speaks. 1. Here, in chapter 2, Joel begins by talking about a disaster that is coming to the people of Judah. 2. An “army” of locusts has come into Judah, devastating the land. 3. Today, we may not fully understand the devastation ...read more

    The work began well at first, then stalled, as the people of God became self-absorbed and so concerned about re-building their own homes and lives neglecting the work of God had given then to do.

    Text Verse: Haggai 1:4-5 (Haggai 1:4-5) "Is it time for you, O ye, to dwell in your ceiled houses, and this house lie waste? {5} Now therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways."
