    This sermon is to help the believer understand that the time to activate your faith is not only when things are going well, but the critical time to display your faith is when there appear to be little hope.

    HAVING FAITH IN A CRIPPLING SITUATION Acts 14:8-12 My brothers and sisters in the book of Hebrews chapter 11 first verse we’ve read, Now faith is the substance of things hope for, the evidence we have not seen. And while we often quote this text, we still show ...read more

    Even though many disciples relished the privilege to preach in the name of Jesus, persecution caused many to quit. They thrived on the sense of power as they spoke with the enabling of the Holy Spirit, but disliked the opposition they encountered.

    Taking the Pleasant With the Unpleasant (Acts 14:1-8) 1. Why do you think some people grow tired of their jobs? Every job has its so called good and bad points. Yet, some aspects of service are not always considered as important as less enjoyable aspects. Even though many disciples relished the ...read more

    God reveals himself in nature and in the Bible.

    Have you ever had to testify in court? I came this close to testifying as a character witness once. I was supposed to tell the court how the accused had changed since his run in with the Law. I was happy to testify but I was a little nervous about it too. I knew that every word I would speak while ...read more

    What kind of Christian are you? God’s kindom is either growing or suffering because of your faith or lack thereof. Determine to serve as one who builds and blesses!

    I watched them tear a building down; A band of men in a busy town. With a `HO-HEAVE-HO’ and a lusty yell; They swung a beam and a sidewall fell. I asked the foreman, `Are these men skilled? And the men you’d hire if you had to build?’ He gave a laugh and said, `No indeed! Common labor is all I ...read more

     | 6,619 views

    Despite the growing opposition to the gospel, Paul and Barnabas never stopped preachign the gospel, even at therisk of their lives. They also give a good example of mission strategy.

    If you were here two weeks ago you’ll remember how, when Paul and Barnabas got to Pisidian Antioch they first went to the synagogue to speak about Jesus as the promised Messiah, but then when their message was rejected by the Jews they turned to the Gentiles. And the Gentiles gladly received this ...read more

  • Attributes To Admire Series

    Contributed by Rich Dunbar on Jun 14, 2005
    based on 28 ratings
     | 6,919 views

    This sermon identifies four attributes worth admiration in Paul and Barnabas. These same attributes ought to be present in us as fathers.

    Admiration is an interesting thing. The dictionary defines it as “a feeling of pleasure, wonder and approval”. I think that most men want their children to admire them in one sense or another. I mean I want my children to take pleasure in me as their father, I want them to have a sense of wonder ...read more

    Biblical preaching always leads to DECISION, sometimes to DISTURBANCE, and, as is the case in America today, often to DIVISION. Good applications for not worshiping Man/Pope, etc. Powerpoint at website.

    based on 27 ratings
     | 3,080 views

    When the Word of the Lord is truly preached, the Lord of the Word is speaking. Are you listening?

    “And they began calling Barnabas, Zeus, and Paul, Hermes, because he was the chief speaker.” Every once in a while we preachers get a reality check concerning just how well we are communicating and how well people are listening to the things we say from the pulpit. That’s good. I think ...read more
