     | 3,786 views

    In this diverse nation, Christians will sometimes feel as though they are suffering the slings and arrows of misunderstanding, hostility, and persecution. Jesus promises that those who are so misunderstood, will be the bearers of eternal light.

    Blessed are the Persecuted Matthew 5:10-12 I Peter 3:13-22 Four hundred years ago, they were beginning to come. From Spain, France, England, and Holland they came. They came searching for riches, fame, and glory. They came because of the innate curiosity of human beings. They came because ...read more

    You Have Just Entered The Missions Zone Series

    A church is many things, including the Kingdom of God in action. A church is to propagate itself, multiply itself, and deepen its impact. This means a church must boldly enter the Missions Zone.

    Note: I had to make many cuts as I preached this sermon. I normally preach for half an hour, but if I used all this material, I think I would have to preach 50 minutes or more. Hope you find something here helpful. Thanks, Ed You Have Just Entered the Missions Zone (Romans 15:14-33) 1. Many of ...read more

    "Behold, the sower went out to sow." Missing from this parable are the words, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to.”

    "Behold, the sower went out to sow." Missing from this parable are the words, “The kingdom of heaven may be compared to.” There must be some good reason why Jesus omitted these words from the first parable. The reason why they are omitted is not a mystery. The kingdom of heaven is an expression ...read more

    Jesus is instructing us to be persistent in prayer. We should keep on asking, keeping seeking, and keep on knocking. Do we really ask? Are we really seekers?

    Knock, knock. Who’s There? Series on the Mount Matthew 7:7-8 September 30, 2007 I’m going to start off with an apology.

    based on 70 ratings
     | 29,795 views

    God’s grace is a free gift that is available to all of us. It is a free gift that we receive but it isn’t what we deserve. It is about mercy, not fairness. And, it is for the last as well as the first. Thankfully, what we can all say is, It’s about gr

    A story is told about Fiorello LaGuardia, who, when he was mayor of New York City during the worst days of the Great Depression and all of World War II, was called by many New Yorkers “the Little Flower” because he was only five foot four and always wore a carnation in his lapel. He was a ...read more

    based on 28 ratings
     | 3,105 views

    Jesus raised the dead and Mohammad killed the living. Jesus healed the sick and Mohammad harmed the healthy. Jesus released the oppressed and Mohammad enslaved the free! And it’s still happening today somewhere around the world!

    I just want to go on record again as saying; these 2 weeks have not been a Muslim bashing, but rather it’s been an exposing of the mystery behind the veil that makes Islam so intriguing to its 1.5 billion followers. Last week we found out the complexity of the Muslim messenger and the confusion of ...read more
