Sermons on Glory And Honor:

Why Do We Worship?

Contributed by Luke Vasicek on Feb 15, 2024

We worship God because (1) He Commands it, (2) He is worthy of it, and (3) because it is for our own Good.

Why do we worship God? (Topical) 1. God wants us to worship him! Ex. 23:25-26 A. God wants us to worship him because He is worthy (Rev. 4:11). It is just, right, and good that God be worshiped. Reality itself dictates, demands, and expects it; creation worships God apart from humankind (Psalm ...read more

Barriers And Bridges To God Series

Contributed by Perry Fowler on Feb 21, 2024

In this passage we are drawn to run to Jesus by contrasting the “old ways” of trying to get to God versus the “new and living way” to get to God through Jesus. How do people try to get to God? Let’s see:

Show Me The Ways Series

Contributed by Rev. Dr. Andrew B Natarajan on Jan 2, 2021

Moses was well trained, and educated in all the wisdom of the Egyptians and was powerful in speech and action (Acts 7:22), yet, he needed God's guide to lead the people, so he prays to God, teach me the ways.

Light Breaks

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Mar 24, 2023

We cannot look directly at the light of God. So the light came into the world in disguise, so that people would be neither frightened nor blinded.

Angelic Host Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 8, 2021

Angels were the primary messengers of that first Christmas. The Star of Bethlehem was their only competitor, and it reached only the wise men. All others were reached by angels.

Before the turn of the century, a Bishop was paying his annual visit to a church related college.

The Order Of Heaven Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 9, 2021

The vision God gave John of the New Jerusalem is a vision of precise and exquisite order. Pythagours said, everything can be described in numbers. That was a profound insight, for numbers are the ultimate symbol of order. God is the great mathematician, and everything He has made has a number.

In the sixth century B. C. a boy by the name of Pythagorus grew up with his father, who was a gem-engraver. He noticed that gemstones came in regular geometric shapes. The beryl was a hexagon, the garnet was a 12 sided crystal, and each gem had it's own unique order. This observation was the ...read more
