    "The Key To Getting God's Attention"

    Contributed by David Henderson on Sep 16, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,250 views

    Here is the biggest obstacle we face when we are considering becoming a follower of Jesus. This is the hardest part. We want all the benefits but we still want to be in control.

    “The Key to getting God’s Attention” James 4:1-10 The Bible tells us that at the beginning of what we now refer to as holy week or the week of passion that Jesus rode into Jerusalem on a donkey and that the crowds were following Him. At that point He was easily the most popular ...read more

    I Have Seen The Lord Series

    Every person comes to faith differently. Mary Magdalene was one of the last people at the cross and first to the tomb. Although she was marginalized by society she was a loyal follower of Jesus.

    I HAVE SEEN THE LORD! John 20:1-18 I suppose that one of the reasons that I like history is the fact that it is chronological. We had a high-school teacher in Indiana that would start the school term with the big current event of the day and then move backward through history to make it more ...read more

    Contributed by David Henderson on Oct 21, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 13,160 views

    In this message we look at the Lord's prayer which follows the request from the disciples for Jesus to teach them to pray. All of us should learn to pray like Jesus.

    “Knocking on Heaven’s Door” Luke 11:1-13 When Jesus set out to call 12 men to follow him, He gathered them together and began mentoring them, discipling them so that they in turn would be able to continue the process. So when Jesus started teaching them, since this was the first ...read more

    1. An invitation to follow Jesus is always personal in nature 2. An invitation to Jesus is a "COME AND SEE" (Experiential) Invitation and 3. An Invitation to Jesus is an invitation to experience a Supernatural Connection

    Scripture: John 1:43-51; 1 Samuel 3:1-10 and Call to Worship (Psalm 139:1-6, 13-18) Theme: Epiphany Title: Listening Eyes In this sermon we examine what it means to be invited to follow Jesus - 1.

    Serving God Regardless Of The Consequences

    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,817 views

    A Christmas sermon looking at the main characters in the Christmas story, Mary, Joseph, the Shepherds, and the Magi, and how they followed and served God's purposes despite the consequences, difficulties, and hardships they faced.

    Serving God Regardless of the Consequences As we prepare for Christmas I thought I’d start up with where we left off during the Thanksgiving holidays when we looked at being grateful during the inevitabilities of life, and how to maintain the ministries graciously given by God. Therefore, with ...read more

    Carrying The Cross Series

    Jesus calls his followers to deny themselves and carry the cross. What does this look like? What does it mean to deny ourselves in a culture and society based on consumerism?

    Luke 14:25-33 “Carrying the Cross” INTRODUCTION Have you noticed that we appear to be buried under an avalanche of forms? When Faye had her shoulder surgery done this spring she sign enough forms to have killed two or perhaps three large trees. The paper work involved in ...read more

     | 4,864 views

    Jesus turns from silence about His achievements to open speaking about His death. He will not follow the ambition path, the pleasure path, or the easy spirituality path.

    You can admire Jesus, you can think well of Jesus, you can even love Jesus. But you cannot domesticate Him, you cannot tame Him, you cannot make Him sweet and nice and pretty. He is who He is and He says what He says, and sometimes it’s hard to take. In my experience, just about everybody out ...read more

    When Ananias and Sapphira hatched the plot to deceive the apostles and the church they never suspected that their infamous deed would be retold over the centuries to follow. May it be a lesson to us all.

    A Chilling Day of Giving Please stand as we read our newest memory Scripture together … John 14:23-24 “Jesus said, ‘If anyone loves Me, he will obey My teaching. My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make our home with him. “He who does not love Me will not obey My teaching. ...read more

    Introduction To The Sermon On The Mount Series

    Contributed by Dennis Lee on Mar 28, 2016
    based on 5 ratings
     | 11,710 views

    This is the introduction to one of the most powerful sermons ever taught or preached. Jesus gives the hearer the basis of what it means to be a Christian, a follower of Christ. It represents the whole of the Christian character.

    Sermon on the Mount Introduction Matthew 5:1-2 When Jesus addressed the church of Sardis He said, “I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead.” (Revelation 3:1 NKJV) This is indeed a tragedy. The church, those who have been called out by God to be ...read more

    For The Love Of Pete

    Contributed by Andrew Corbett on Apr 1, 2016
     | 4,872 views

    Following Christ as a leader involves answering one essential question. This question is answered by how we respond to the Enemy's sifting, and how we respond to Christ's impassioned enquiries.

    <h1>For The Love of Pete</h1> Of the many interactions that The Christ had with people, He had two particularly extremely curious conversations with his chief apostle, Peter. Curious may not be the right word. Bewildering may be more apt. One of them required Peter to act, the other required Peter ...read more

    In the Beatitudes, Jesus shows the way of the believer. As we follow Christ daily, we will be blest. Our focus should be on the blessing, not the circumstance, and we should share the blessing with others.

    Matthew 5:1-12 Bless You! Today is a sermon on a sermon, perhaps the most famous sermon of all: the Beatitudes, part of Jesus’ longer Sermon on the Mount. The word “beatitude” means “blessed” in Latin. The Beatitudes are all about finding blessings in unexpected places. Who would expect to be ...read more
