    Falling From Grace Series

    Contributed by Patrick Nix on Jul 13, 2010
     | 4,768 views

    Speaking on grace has seemed one sided…when you speak of unconditional forgiveness, limitless love, & boundless acceptance. It’s just screaming to be abused and misused... here are three loop-holes:

    Speaking on grace has seemed one sided…when you speak of unconditioned forgiveness and limitless love and boundless acceptance… * The scent of sandal arises when you tell sinners that; “No matter what, God loves you and can forgive you.” or that “No amount of effort and works impresses God any ...read more

    Small beginnings can lead to great things. If we do little things well, God will do big things through us. We should not underestimate the power of small beginnings and the impact they can have.

    Ever tried flying a kite? It's not as easy as it looks, right? You've got to get the angle just right, run at the right speed, and let out just enough string. But once it's up there, soaring in the sky, it's pretty awesome. Back in 1847, a guy named Charles Ellet Jr. had to build a bridge across a ...read more

    Why has Jesus been forsaken? So that we do not need to go through heel and so we can have a relationship with God.

    The premise of this sermon is that sometimes there is much more disappointment in our hearts than hope! Advent’s message through the Prophet Isaiah is that hope is hidden deep within us, safe and secure, and is ready to burst forth in renewed life.

    Advent II- Hope It was just this word of hope the people desperately needed to hear--the words that Isaiah wrote about the dry-looking stump with a green shoot growing out of it. The Israelites felt hopeless, in despair. The words Isaiah wrote told of that despairing and proclaimed that the ...read more
