    Are We Truly Thankful?

    Contributed by Travis Markes on Nov 12, 2007
    based on 69 ratings
     | 33,694 views

    A simple Thanksgiving message that focuses on two attitudes. The attitude of selfishness and the attitude of Thankfulness. The message closes out with the one thing that Christians should truly be thankful for and that is the Price that Jesus paid.

    “ARE WE TRULY THANKFUL?” 1 Thessalonians 5:18 Rudyard Kipling, author of “The Jungle Book”, at one time was so popular that his writings were getting ten shillings per word. [about $10!] A few college students, however didn’t appreciate Kipling’s writings; they lightheartedly sent him a letter ...read more

    Awe In Worship Series

    Contributed by Robert Higgins on Nov 13, 2007
     | 7,321 views

    We don’t reverence God as we ought, when He is safely tucked inside the boxes of our understanding, our theology, our control, or in the box of our familiarity. What happens when He gets out of our box?

    Encountering God – Part 8 – Awe in Worship Review Last week we talked about why God’s glory or presence doesn’t show up in worship or in a gathering of His people. Some folks would notice if He wasn’t there, others would see no difference. I talked a bit about three reasons why God’s glory ...read more

    Restoring A Remnant Series

    Contributed by Jim Drake on Nov 17, 2007
    based on 66 ratings
     | 24,278 views

    God is all powerful but He chooses to accomplish His work through people. While God’s desire is for all to respond to Him, the fact is that only a remnant will. But in that remnant, God provides the kinds of people it takes to accomplish His work.

    1. The leaders (2:2a) 2. The laymen (2:2b-35) 3. The Lord’s ministers (2:36-58) 4.

    The Golden Compass

    Contributed by C Jordan on Nov 20, 2007
    based on 14 ratings
     | 10,003 views

    A compass is defined as, “a device used to determine geographic direction; as by means of a freely rotating magnetized needle that indicates magnetic north.” Based on that definition, there is nothing ‘golden’ about this compass.

    NOTHING GOLDEN ABOUT THIS COMPASS: A CRITICAL RESPONSE (By Pastor Chris Jordan – November 2007) HARRY WHO?

    based on 19 ratings
     | 7,781 views

    Like everything ordained by God, He intends testing and trials for our good. But Satan twists God’s good tests into temptation. His desire is for us to fail God’s good tests by succumbing to the temptation he brings from them.

    1. God’s intentions for His tests are good (9-12) a. God’s pattern for testing (9-11) b. God’s freedom from testing (12) 2. Transition verse (13) 3.

    Mercy In The Midst Of Madness

    Contributed by Donnie Martin on Sep 13, 2007
    based on 8 ratings
     | 13,567 views

    Just like stubborn and rebellious Israel of old, we do not deserve God’s grace and mercy. But in spite of ourselves, God is always ready to extend His mercy to us; especially in the midst of life’s increasing madness.

    Mercy In The Midst Of Madness Text: Ps.61: 3-4; Ps.103: 2, 4-5; Isa.41: 13 Intro: Last night, as I bowed my head in prayer to God, I began to share with the Lord the burdens that were weighing heavily upon my heart.

    The Dynamite Of The Cross

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Sep 14, 2007
    based on 8 ratings
     | 14,772 views

    The dynamite (power) of the cross is displayed in the reaction of the centurion at Calvary’s cross. This is displayed through the righteousness and royalty of Christ, the response of heaven and the witness of the centurion’s own heart.

    The Bible does not give us many facts about activities of the centurions. In fact, centurions are referred to only four times in the Bible. Matthew 8 records the story where the centurion asked for his servant to be healed. “Lord, I am not worthy for You to come under my roof, but just say the ...read more

    What you always wanted to know, but were too afraid to ask! Powerful and balanced Bible sermon on the misunderstood topic of healing. Sometimes it takes greater faith to still believe in a healing God - and die, than it does to be healed! PP Slides avail.

    (Note: I’m sure some of this material is gleaned from Willow Creek - I remembered some of the illustrations from decades ago - before I was a full time pastor.)
