    We don't witness because we see only downsides; yet many will go to their graves without faith unless lay people preach the Gospel by word and deed

    Monday of 10th Week in Course 7 June 2010 You Will Be My Witnesses Why do we hesitate to boldly share our faith with those we meet? I think the reason is that we see only personal downsides to the action. Elijah spoke the word of God to the king of Israel. We’ve forgotten the king, but we ...read more

     | 9,716 views

    Herod had a birthday party, but ended up paying for it instead of receiving. It's a story of unforgiveness, a seductive dance, and a well-intentioned man who by compromise was pulled into grave sin.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY HEROD! Mk. 6:17-28 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: PLAYPEN 1. A young mother complained to her friend about the difficulties of child rearing, especially the lack of peace and constant pestering by her small children. 2.

    Paul wanted the fullness of the Holy Spirit. He longed to experience the power of God, the Holy Spirit in action. Again, This power, the Holy Spirit, is what raised Jesus from the grave.

    Some of you have played Jenga with your family, right? You seek to pull piece after piece out without the tower collapsing. If Christianity were a Jenga tower, the resurrection is the one block that, when pulled, the tower comes crashing down every single time.

    Dead people stay dead.1 “Nobody goes to funerals and says, ‘What’s the over/under if this person comes alive again?’” I have yet to see one dead person come back to life. I doubt you have seen any dead person live again, either. Once people have gone down the road of death, they just don’t return.2 ...read more

    Theme: How does the triumphal entry of Jesus going into Jerusalem show the dynamics between the humble and the haughty and how salvation is affected? ... Jesus empties himself to serve others.

    Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Proverbs 18:12 (ESV) P: Before destruction a man’s heart is haughty, C: but humility comes before honor.

    John 11 - At Lazarus’s tomb Jesus shows us that God enters our grief, but His voice at the grave and His resurrection promise assure us that He will come again to call His people to eternal life.

    Introduction: A World in Mourning I have traveled the world and seen the weight and pain of death.

    When the ladies came to the empty tomb, the angel said, "You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified." This statement begs us to answer this question, "Who or what is it that you seek?"

    Life’s Most Important Question Mark 16:1-8 • To read about the resurrection of Jesus is – well – just plain exciting. Jesus’ heart stopped bleeding, His blood stopped flowing, His human brain stopped working, & He was buried for THREE DAYS before HE CAME BACK TO LIFE ...read more

    The resurrection of Jesus from the dead is either fact or fiction. If it is fiction we are all lost in our sin. If it is fact then our eternal destiny pivots on whether we believe it or not.

    The Resurrection – A Wall or A Gate Please open your Bibles to Matthew 28:1-7 which Pastor Karenlee will be reading and teaching from in a few minutes. We hope many of you were able to join us for our Good Friday service. It was good to remember all that happened between the Passover Meal, which ...read more

     | 1,759 views

    The Resurrection of Jesus Christ is the foundation of the faith and the greatest event in the story of civilization. The proofs from Scripture and the lives changed by it cannot be ignored or denied.

    Note: These verses and the order of events are adapted from THE OPEN BIBLE (KJV) (c) 1975 by Thomas Nelson Publishers, Nashville, TN. When the Lord Jesus told Martha at the tomb of Lazarus, "I am the Resurrection and the Life" (John 11:25), He proved it by bringing HIs friend and her ...read more

     | 5,523 views

    Many Christians balk at the words "He descended into hell" and wonder if this is really taught in Scripture. I’m attempting to clarify what occurred between the cross and the empty tomb.

    Never Let The Wine Dry Up

    All of us are much like empty and broken pots. No matter how we plan or what we do, we always come up empty and short. Whether it is a marriage relationship or any other challenges, like Mary we need to seek the help of our Lord and believe before we can see.

    This morning I have chosen the gospel reading to share a message entitled “Never let the wine run out.” But before I get into it, listen to this: A priest was driving erratically on a county road and got pulled over by a local cop. As the cop went up to the car he immediately got a strong smell of ...read more
