Sermons on Gospel Of The Uncircumcision:

The Salt Of The Earth Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Sep 2, 2021

Jesus addressed the need for all believers to serve as the salt of the earth and light to this dark world. We will discover as we move through these verses both are necessary and much needed in our day. Each of these elements has a distinct and profound effect on their surroundings.

The Salt of the Earth Matthew 5: 13 We have spent a considerable amount of time dealing with the portion of the Sermon on the Mount known as the Beatitudes. I think you would agree those verses were a challenging and insightful study. As our Lord concluded His thoughts concerning the beatitudes, ...read more

Contributed by James Jackson on Aug 11, 2020

On the most chaotic, stress-filled day of His life, Jesus modeled calm and stayed in control. Here are four things we can learn from Jesus about keeping calm.

A few years ago, I started noticing this poster everywhere: Keep Calm and Carry On. It was on social media. T-Shirts. Coffee mugs. And it wasn’t long after that that you started seeing all the variations to it: [advance each one] • Keep calm and wash your hands (that one has just been in the ...read more

Crescendo (August 18, 2019).

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Aug 14, 2020

Jesus shared with his audience then and his congregation today that life is not always a rose garden. Life is not a dress rehearsal. Some who are open to the gospel are often rejected by those who oppose it and sometimes they are family members.

CRESCENDO Text: Luke 12:49 - 56 Have you ever had something happen that made your Adrenalin glands kick in instant overdrive when you were almost asleep? It said that Beethoven would sometimes shock his audiences with a shift from soft music to abrupt harsh noise. Imagine sitting ...read more

The Whole Armor Of God: An Exposition Of Ephesians 6:10-20

Contributed by Mark A. Barber on Aug 17, 2021

We need to fight the Christian warfare with the armaments God has provided us, to use these skillfully, and to use these as a unit.

The Whole Armor of God: An Exposition of Ephesians 6:10-20 This morning’s passage has been the source of many a commentary, some of which are very detailed.

My Message Is All About God Series

Contributed by David Owens on Jan 10, 2022

If we are not careful, we can get in the way of sharing the good news about Jesus and begin to make the message about us. But our message and our ministry must be all about Him and not about us. We must lift Him up, and He will draw people to Himself.

A. I read about a minister who gave an unusual sermon one Sunday. 1. He used a peanut to make several important points about the wisdom of God in nature. 2. One of the church members greeted him on the way out and said, “Very interesting sermon, Preacher, I never expected to learn so much from a ...read more

All Your Heart Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Jan 1, 2021

Our heart is the “vital centre” of our being – everything flows from our heart. In order to love God with “all our heart” we need to allow the Gospel to cut to our heart and bring our naturally deceitful heart into alignment with the heart of God.

Christian Courage

Contributed by Martin Field on Aug 7, 2001

Reflecting on Joseph of Arimathaea’s courage in stepping forward to bury Jesus, the sermon encourages Christians to be bold and courageous today.

In the Episcopal Church, today is the feast day of Joseph of Arimathaea, one of the more obscure New Testament characters. All that is known for certain about Joseph comes from the Gospel narratives of Jesus’ burial. Though John speaks of Joseph as a secret disciple of our Lord, and associates ...read more
