     | 4,213 views

    Good Friday: Behold the man; behold the king; behold your God. Gaze upon the man upon the cross and ask yourself "who do you see?"

    WHO DO YOU SEE UPON THE CROSS? I have made it a tradition these last four years or so to watch Mel Gibson’s movie The Passion. As Easter comes around each year I use tools like this movie to meditate upon what Jesus did for us. This year, however, something strange happened. For our movie club ...read more

    Slave Market Liberated Series

    Contributed by Larry Turner on Sep 4, 2015
     | 4,306 views

    Like Paul, we are all slaves to our sins. But Jesus bought us from the slave market to set us free. So why do we continue in bondage. This sermon attempts to answer that question.

    Come with me in a time machine this morning. We will travel back to Rome circa 60 AD. We find ourselves at the Graecostadium, the slave market. As we wander around, we see men, women, and children standing on revolving blocks. Immediately we observe the fact that these people are nude, totally ...read more

    Theme for coming year: 15 Be very careful, then, how you live-- not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord's will is. (Ephesians 5:15-17).

    A Fresh Start! Back in the 1960’s experts predicted that by the turn of the century technology would have taken over so much of the work we do that the average American work week would be only 22 hours long, & that we would work only 27 weeks a year. As a result, one of our biggest problems ...read more

    As Christians we are bound to fail. Peter and John walked by one man laying near the gate called Beautiful countless times. In time they provided for the man physically and spiritually.

    This verse tells us that the fight we're involved in has been "fixed" -- God has destined us to win no matter how hard the devil fights or how ingenious he is. All we have to do is keep holding onto Jesus and we'll be alright. So fear not!

    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,299 views

    This sermon is the first in a series for January 2017 called "Start Something New." Many focus on body image issues when making New Year's Resolutions. In baptism, we have "put on Christ," and God sees His perfect, sinless Son. THERE'S your new body!

    It’s that time again—time to set lofty goals for yourself. Time to aim high for 2017. Time to dream that you might be one of only 8% of Americans who actually fulfill a new year’s resolution! Year after year, we do this to ourselves…no matter how many times we fall into the 92% failure category. ...read more

     | 6,593 views

    A sermon that looks at the danger of lies. I used a number of resources from other sermons so want to acknowledge that some of this is "borrowed" thinking.

    There is a pop song called lies lies sweet little lies. Our bible verse this morning would suggest that there is nothing sweet or little about lies. Particularly lies that bear false testimony Ravi Zacharias illustrated the many ways a person can tell the truth when he told the story of two ...read more

    Temptation can take us by surprise sometimes. We can get discouraged when we find ourselves giving in over and over. We get overwhelmed when it seems like we can't catch a break. What can we do? It's important that we understand what's going on so we can
