     | 5,017 views

    When our attitude toward God turns sour, everyone ends up disappointed.

    When God Gets Aggravated, It’s Not A Pretty Picture (Numbers 11:18-20, 25-35) 1. Last week we learned a number of lessons from Numbers 11. While I was preparing last week’s sermon, I could see we had too much material to handle in one week. 2. Today, I would like to continue on with this ...read more

    Like Paul, we are challenged to translate the message of God's love and grace into words and actions that the people around us understand.

    Acts 17:22-31 “Translating the Message” INTRODUCTION [Play video] Some you may have seen this video previously, but I think it has a powerful message—a message that bears repeating—and it underscores today’s Scripture lesson. Paul was a man on fire. He had ...read more

    Come And See Series

     | 8,146 views

    Christianity is experiential. Jesus invites John's disciples to come and see. He invites us to come and see, also. When we look expecting to see Jesus we see him all around us. The Holy Spirit transforms us and excites us when we see Jesus.

    John 1:29-42 “Come and See” INTRODUCTION In a few moments, we’re going to flash a picture on the screen. I’d like you to count how many saguaro cactus there are in the picture. We’ll give you ten seconds to count them. Are you ready? [Show picture] Now, can you ...read more

    No matter what the era of human history, God responds to the repentant heart.

    A God Who Cannot Resist Repentance (Hosea 14) 1. I used to enjoy the old "Where's the Beef?" commercial. 2. Everyone, it seems, knows a "where's the beef" type of lady. 3.

    based on 9 ratings
     | 2,913 views

    We cannot go far in the Kingdom of God until we get the lust for status under control. This is true in the material realm, as we shall see in a message planned for next week, and it is true in the religious realm as well, as we shall see this week.

    Status or Substance? (Matt. 6:1-15) Note: here is my bulletin insert I wrote up along with the sermon. Sermon follows. Giving, Prayer, and Fasting (notes for Matt. 6:1-15) Since modern Judaism no longer has the Temple (in the Biblical sense) many Rabbis teach that charity, prayer, and fasting ...read more
