  • The Helmet Of Salvation Series

    Contributed by Chris Smith on Feb 26, 2001
    based on 94 ratings
     | 14,153 views

    Without a conscious decision to make God the most important part of your life - without the Helmet of Salvation - you allow the devil to attack your unprotected mind, and you WILL be deceived.

    The Helmet of Salvation [Read Ephesians 6:10-18] How many of you are bothered by the demons in Hell this morning? The rest of you need to get saved. · The moment you turn to Christ, Hell has your name on a bulletin board, and the more you serve your Savior, the bigger your name gets on that ...read more

  • Stairway To Heaven Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 4, 2001
    based on 71 ratings
     | 6,842 views

    The beatitudes can be understood sequentially .. as stairsteps to "perfection" (Matt. 5:48). The first four lift us to fellowship with God; the other four bring us back down to the reality of ministry with needy people. This sermon was delivered using a ladder as a "prop".

    When Stanley Kubrick made the movie “2001: A Space Odyssey”, he guessed that by this time we would be flitting back and forth in outer space, visiting other planets and seeing things never before seen by human beings. The movie suggested that those who would be alive in the year 2001 would go on ...read more

  • Diagnosing Illness Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 11, 2001
    based on 67 ratings
     | 7,347 views

    Jesus diagnoses our illnesses as primarily spiritual and/or connective; the fatal illness He diagnoses is the one which cannot see God at work.

    We all know people for whom illness is a way of life. It is not just incidental, it is every day. Every day is spent dealing with sickness or pain. Every day is invested in physicians, treatments, medications, therapies. People who struggle just to stay alive, or to manage pain. Their lives ...read more

  • Lasting Love

     | 5,643 views

    Funeral sermon for Mrs. Lola Black, who died suddenly only five months after her husband’s death.

    In March, when we gathered in this place to say farewell to a creative, innovative man, we did not dream that five months later we would gather again to bid adieu to his cherished helpmate. Charlie and Lola are together again, in death as in life; and it’s almost beyond belief. It just does not ...read more

  • Pain Ignores The Appointment Book Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 20, 2001
    based on 41 ratings
     | 5,534 views

    Many of us dislike dealing with unplanned events, but those who need us need us now. So either we paralyze or we panic, unless we learn to work together inside God’s grace and unless we discern that He is giving us time in which to grow our faith.

    I have the utmost admiration for anybody who can live amid constant crises. I cannot do that very well. If you are the kind of person who can keep your sanity when there are ten unplanned things happening around you, I salute you. How do you do it? That’s not me. That’s not my skill. I like ...read more

  • When Thou Hast Done, Thou Hast Not Done Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 25, 2001
    based on 22 ratings
     | 5,875 views

    Sermon prepared for observance of my fifteenth anniversary as pastor; confession that, like Joseph of Arimathea, I have waited too long to be bold and then have done my work all to alone; but that the basis for pastor and people is the grace of the Cross

    If I know anything at all about life, I know that all of us want significance. We want to know that our lives have had meaning. We want to know, after we have invested a few years, that we have counted for something. We want significance. Years ago, I heard a lecture by Victor Frankl. Some of ...read more

  • Put Your Pencils Down

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Sep 1, 2001
    based on 44 ratings
     | 7,496 views

    A Labor Day and Communion message, dealing with the sources of satisfaction in work. Designed for audience participation.

    Labor Day, and school is starting again. I wonder, do they still do the same things as when I was in school? Do they still have the same rituals? Maybe not. Things do change. Dodgeball, for example. Now that was THE game in my day. You had the right to throw the ball as hard as you could and ...read more

  • Thy Kingdom Come: Still Blind And Mute Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Sep 10, 2001
    based on 37 ratings
     | 7,686 views

    Praying for the Kingdom to come is an awesome responsibility, for some of us remain blind and mute despite Jesus’ healing, criticizing those who are different and causing divisions.

    Our backyard is heavily populated. It is home to birds and bugs, to snails and occasional snakes, and most of all, our backyard is populated with moles. The turf is home to those burrowing creatures, moles. I have the twisted ankle to prove it, thanks to sinking in one of the burrows. Our ...read more

  • Thy Will Be Done: By Any Means Necessary? Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Sep 16, 2001
    based on 26 ratings
     | 5,514 views

    To pray for the will of God to be done in the aftermath of the terror of Sept. 11 is to see that the will of God and the ways of God must always be joined; to avoid sinking to the level of the terrorists; and to repent of little faith and recommmit to the

    A number of years ago, a poet penned poignant words as he saw the beginning of the end for the greatest nation of his day. He saw that the far-flung influence his country had thrown over much of the world could no longer be held. The people who had felt pressed by it were demanding their own ...read more

  • All Is Now Yours: Giving What We Do Not Have

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 8, 2001
    based on 34 ratings
     | 5,015 views

    In uncertain times, it remains true that giving away what we cannot possess anyway is the path to fulfillment; it must, however, be a gift that refreshes the fainting.

    It seems that we do not have what we think we have. Sometimes what seems to be ours is not ours at all. Buildings as sturdy as the Pentagon and as imposing as the World Trade Center can be destroyed in a moment of awful terror. Lives promising and beautiful are snuffed out, and there is little ...read more

  • For Me

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 8, 2001
    based on 61 ratings
     | 6,867 views

    Funeral message for Calvin John King, widower, father of seven, and long-term post-traumatic stress syndrome sufferer.

    We have all been taught to be unselfish. “Share your toys”, we say to our children. I am pretty sure that was said in the King household, with seven pairs of hands grabbing for the same stuffed animal. “Let your brother have some of your candy bar; you must not be selfish.” All very well, ...read more

  • Advancing Without Hindrance

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 18, 2001
    based on 54 ratings
     | 22,857 views

    In our own lives, as well as in the life of the church, there are barriers to advancement, but they are nowhere near as difficult as our spiritual hindrances.

    When I entered junior high school, I was introduced to track and field games – to things like the 100-yard dash, relay races, and, most of all, the hurdles. As any red-blooded American boy would have done, I had done my share of running and climbing and bicycling and the like. But hurdles I had ...read more

    Addresses the need to live every moment in God’s plan not our own.

    TIME Ps 90:12 So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom. A- God has a plan / Time does not affect our God - Eternal 1- He has a plan for mankind - redemption - immortality / destruction - second death Rom 2:6-8 Who will render to every man according to his ...read more

    EVANGELIZING John 4:34-35 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
