In a Bible study that night, many questions had been raised in his mind. Talking with the leader afterward, J.E. said, “I asked Jesus to be my Savior when I was 9 years ...read more

    based on 19 ratings
     | 25,073 views

    This sermon seeks to encourage persons to get off the performance treadmill to experience growth in grace and Christian maturity through an intimate relationship with Christ.

There’s a direct ...read more

    The Spirit-Filled Walk: What It Is And Isn't

    Contributed by Bruce Willis on Jan 3, 2007
    based on 14 ratings
     | 5,985 views

    This is a sermon on the Spirit-Filled walk from The Exchanged Life perspective that exhorts the believer in such a way that consistency will be your experience in the believer’s walk.

    I shared with you this morning about the Spirit-Filled life in that it’s an abundant and fruitful life. The last principle had to do with the process of being filled. However, I must hasten to add that trying to reduce life in the Spirit to a formula is like trying to capture the wind. It’s a ...read more

    need of God’s Spirit to overcome the weakness of the flesh.

    Intro: the more I read the Word of God, the more I realize how totally dependent we are on the Spirit of God to help us gain victory in our lives.

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,257 views

    Jesus is the "star" of Scripture and he is to be the star of our life. Is it he we are following or a star of our own making?

    “What’s in the stars for you?” Perhaps you remember seeing this huge front-page horoscope in the Edmonton Journal a few days ago. It may seem laughable to us that anyone would live his or her life by the “dictates of the stars” but the fact that the newspaper paid for the information and then gave ...read more
