Sermons on Heaven Come To Earth:

Heaven Is A Party Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jun 24, 2013

Heaven is party-central, and the party starts now, but doesn't get into full gear till we get to Heaven, or when Jesus returns--whichever comes first.

When Biblical writers speak of Heaven, they often use figurative language. I suspect the reason is that they’re trying to express heavenly realities with the limitations of human language. Trying to describe Heaven to us is like trying to describe this world to an unborn child. And so ...read more

Salt Of The Earth

Contributed by Jim Keegan on Apr 29, 2020

The phrase "salt of the earth" has become a commonly used expression in our society. The dictionary defines it as used in reference to "a very good and honest person or group," but that doesn't begin to do justice to what Jesus had in mind in this teaching.

“You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trampled by men.” (Matthew 5:13) Salt today has become such a commonplace part of our lives, available in every home or restaurant, ...read more

The Ends Of The Earth Youth Sermon

Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 5, 2023

Jesus told His disciples to receive the Holy Spirit's power and be witnesses for Him everywhere. The Spirit empowers us to spread the gospel to the ends of the earth and see people get "hooked" on Christ.

Think about your friends, family, and school. These are the people close to you. Share Jesus' love with them. Then think about the next town over, or the people you meet when you're out and about. That's a bit further. And then, think about people in other countries. That's as far as you can reach. ...read more
