Multi Ethnic Bereavement

Contributed by Davon Huss on Apr 30, 2017

I wrote this for a counseling class. It contains three parts: 1) Bereavement in religion 2) Bereavement in ethnic groups 3) Applications for pastoral and clinical counselors.

To be used of the Lord to help those grieving is both satisfying and humbling. My personal prayer is that more mourners will be drawn to the gospel of Jesus Christ. The Gospel of Christ is the only thing that can bring true and lasting comfort. Jesus said, “Blessed are those that mourn, for they ...read more

The Reality Of The Resurrection Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 5, 2021

The very group of men Jesus hand picked to be the foundation on which He would build His church were the first body of skeptics in the Christian church.

Ministers frequently call at a home when the man alone is there, and he will respond in some such manner as this: "I'm sorry my wife isn't home. She takes care of the religious matters in our home." I have not just read about this, but have experienced it, and have wondered how ...read more

Baptism Like A Wedding Ring

Contributed by Barnabas Park on Jan 17, 2021

This sermon was prepared to help the baptism candidates understand the meaning of baptism and why baptism is necessary. I prepared for the youth group, but it would apply to adults as well.

Marriage And Pork

Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jan 31, 2024

If your group forbids marriage or has food restrictions for holiness or Christian service then you need to leave. The leaders who made these rules are false prophets.

1 Timothy 4:1 Now the Spirit speaketh expressly, that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils; 2 Speaking lies in hypocrisy; having their conscience seared with a hot iron; 3 Forbidding to marry, and commanding to ...read more

A Mission Trip (Luke 10)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Nov 24, 2024

What lessons can we learn when a very large group was apostled by Jesus for a mission trip? Let's look at Luke 10.

What is God’s judgment on places where Christians are not welcomed? What should be our chief joy? Who is our neighbor? Is listening to Jesus a priority for us? Let’s look at Luke 10. How many were “sent” or “apostled” (in Greek) on a mission trip? The Lord now chose seventy-two [CEB, CEV, ESV, ...read more

Bad Company Series

While ten men only saw the problems, two men in that group were able to see God, and depended on the promises that He had made to them.

For today’s meditation we focus on Joshua 14:7, “I was forty years old when Moses the servant of the LORD sent me from Kadesh-barnea to spy out the land, and I brought him word again as it was in my heart.” (ESV) Of late we are studying the life of Caleb, and the above mentioned verse are the ...read more

The Journey Every Christian Should Make Series

Contributed by Kevin Cummins on Jun 11, 2003

In this passage as John writes to the different age groups maybe chronilogically and spiritually, we see three different destinations that every Christian should reach on their Christian journey.

So far as we have been going through the book of I John we have seen different tests and indications that you can know that you truly belong to Christ. Once again these tests were to reveal the false teachings that were going on and bring comfort and reassurance to those in the true church ...read more

Jesus Asks the question - what do you want od at least two groups. The thing is that the answers can be obvious so why does He ask?

Stephen, A Man Full Of Faith And Of The Holy Spirit

Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Oct 2, 2006

This a sermon given to a group of mainly over 60’s, challenging us to think about Stephen. In particular the way he copied Jesus by praying for his persecutors.

They loved their Bible (our Old Testament) and they were very vocal in their defence of the faith which had ...read more
