    Beatitudes Series

    Contributed by Joe Friend on Feb 6, 2008
     | 12,321 views

    When we hunger and thirst of righteousness then you will find your happiness. When we develop a heavenly hunger for Jesus everything else will seem meaningless, a chasing after the wind.

    We all want to be happy, Right? We want to go through life with a feeling of accomplishment that brings happiness. Sometimes happiness can be a short lived experience in life. Kinda like a kid buying a happy meal at McDonalds. Kids love happy meals don’t they? It doesn’t matter where we are my ...read more

    Believers are puttering around wondering why their Christian life isn’t working – it’s simple, they have sin attached beneath the surface of their lives that needs to be removed.

    Two brothers, Harry and James, were playing right before bedtime, and somehow Harry hit James with a stick. Tears and bitter words followed and they were still angry as their mother prepared them for bed. Mother said, "Now James, before you go to bed you’re going to have to forgive your ...read more

    May the Lord open our eyes to dirty feet and give us a heart to wash them.

    Read John 13:1-10. This story is one of the most memorable incidents in Bible. It was the night before Jesus’ betrayal and crucifixion. It was an intense time in Jesus’ life. His public ministry had ended. Jesus now turns his full attention to his disciples. I want you to imagine this situation ...read more

    When we fail to forgive others who have hurt us we give in to the spirit of revenge and resentment.

    After spending 3-1/2 hours enduring the long lines, surly clerks and insane regulations at the Department of Motor Vehicles, I stopped at a toy store to pick up a gift for my son. I brought my selection - a baseball bat - to the cash register. "Cash or charge?" the clerk asked. "Cash," I snapped. ...read more

    In the church there are a lot of Rip Van Winkle Christians--who go to sleep not long after they made the decision to follow Christ.

    Ephesians 5:8-14 INTRODUCTION: How many have heard the statement, “They are as different as day and night.”? Paul is using this same kind of contrast between darkness and light when he is speaking of the old life without Christ as compared to the new life in Christ. In this scripture Paul is ...read more

    The message today might seem a bit harsh but Jesus spoke and we have to preach it. I admit I am more comfortable whispering repentance and shouting grace.

    TEXT; MATTHEW 5:27-32 TITLE: “Would You Be Blind” INTRODUCTION: Most Sundays I am excited to preach. I’m usually fired up to prepare a message and present it. I have to admit that it’s not really the case today. The passage we’re going to study this morning is a tough and controversial ...read more

    based on 23 ratings
     | 34,146 views

    When Moses met God at the burning bush he learned that Israel's freedom was to come on God's terms... not his, nor anyone elses. What were those terms and what do those terms tell us about our Freedom in Christ?

    In March 2013 - in Texarkana, Texas - a woman and her son were cleaning up their yard when they came across a black snake. Now, I don’t know if the snake was poisonous… but I do know it frightened them. In their panic they doused the snake with gasoline and then they set it on ...read more

    One of the gifts Jesus was born to give was the gift of Eternal life. How and when did He give us that gift and how does His birth figure into it?

    A sermon on death, friendship, and friendship with God

    Multi Ethnic Bereavement

    Contributed by Davon Huss on Apr 30, 2017
     | 13,947 views

    I wrote this for a counseling class. It contains three parts: 1) Bereavement in religion 2) Bereavement in ethnic groups 3) Applications for pastoral and clinical counselors.

    To be used of the Lord to help those grieving is both satisfying and humbling. My personal prayer is that more mourners will be drawn to the gospel of Jesus Christ. The Gospel of Christ is the only thing that can bring true and lasting comfort. Jesus said, “Blessed are those that mourn, for they ...read more

    The Scarecrow And The Pelican – Very Apt Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 3, 2022
     | 2,884 views

    The message begins with the insanity of idolatry. Idols are no more than scarecrows in a cucumber field. In great distress David resembled a pelican in the wilderness. Applications are drawn from these two objects to Christian living and personal affliction.

    THE SCARECROW AND THE PELICAN – VERY APT PART 1 - A SCARECROW IN A CUCUMBER FIELD {{Jeremiah 10:1-5 Hear the word which the LORD speaks to you, O house of Israel.

    God's Grace can happen at any time or any place.

    The Nain Procession to Party From what I've heard, a New Orleans jazz funeral is an experience like no other. The brass band begins its solemn procession at the church, playing hymns like "Free as a Bird" and "Just a Closer Walk with Thee",….no improvisation, no frills. Nothing but sadness ...read more
