    Healing The Hurts In Families

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jun 4, 2001
    based on 104 ratings
     | 14,295 views

    Healing the relationships in our homes involves 1. Honest confession. 2. A willingness to stop the things that hurt the other person. 3. Opening our hearts to them once again and allowing them to come in.

    In the Scripture reading this morning, we find one of the most dysfunctional families in the Bible. The irony is that it is a family led by one of the most godly men in the Old Testament — King David. David is described as a man after God’s own heart (1 Samuel 13:14), and he was. But he was ...read more

    Prayer And The Chronically Unhappy

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 21, 2010

     | 7,058 views

    For Reformation Sunday, October 1987: Job in the Old Testament and Luther in the Reformation Era were chronically unhappy people, but used that as a form of spiritual energy to drive them toward creative achievement and an honest personal faith.

    It looks as though some people are just born to be unhappy. There are some people who are going to approach nearly everything with a complaint or a gripe, who are going to make a personal issue out of everything. Nothing is quite good enough, nothing quite satisfies. There are folks whose ...read more

    Seeking God and having the ultimate relationship with Him requires complete honesty. Covering our faults and failures is no good to anyone. This message challenges the hearer to examine how honest he/she is with the Lord, himself and others.

    SERMON: The next person, after hearing this message, who tells a lie, no matter how big or small.....will fall over immediately and die. Ok maybe not, but hey, It could happen you know. Wait, it did happen.... Wait....it does happen......Wait.....it happens all the time. More on that in a ...read more

    Manipulation By Guilt Vs. Straightforward Requests Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 26, 2016
     | 5,807 views

    Manipulation is a dishonest method to control others, get our way, or make others think an idea was theirs; it stands in contrast to making honest straightforward requests. Manipulation by guilt is perhaps the most common form of manipulation.

    Manipulation by Guilt Vs. Straightforward Requests (topical) 1. A lot of persuasion — even in church — can be based upon emotion and a lack of logic. “Pastor Smith was winding up his sermon about the dangers of alcohol and the need for temperance. He shouted, 'If I had all the ...read more

     | 64,584 views

    An honest look at the condition of the church in many places today reveals weakness, lethargy, and decline. In many places the fires of revival and renewal have dimmed, or have been greatly hindered by the encroachments of sin, the flesh and the devil.

    REPAIRING THE ALTAR OF THE LORD Study Text: 1Kings 18: 30 - 39 Introduction: - The trouble in many churches is not the Pastor or the program. The trouble is "Broken Altars" in the lives of God's people. - The purpose of an altar is: Worship; Sacrifice; Giving of Offerings; God's people gather ...read more

    When taking the Sacrament of Holy Communion, we must take an honest inventory of our life through examination, confession and forgiveness. We must take the Sacrament fully reconciled before God and our neighbor.

    THROUGHOUT THE LIFE OF THE CHRISTIAN CHURCH, THE LORD'S SUPPER HAS BEEN THE MOST COMMON FORM OF PUBLIC WORSHIP.
