    Saints are counter-cultural; saints are ordinary people doing extraordinary things that most people find crazy.

    October 11, 2009 28th Sunday in Course Perhaps some of you were as puzzled and shocked as I was last week when a prestigious, high-profile international award was announced, and the winner was something of a surprise. Just a short time on the job, doing something entirely new, with the usual ...read more

    Friend Of The Hopeful Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 22, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,469 views

    In fearful times, there are also signs of hope. Some turn everything into a sign of fear and conflict. Others can see hope if they allow others to succeed. The child Jesus is a sign of such hope.

    "The time of fear is over; now comes the time of hope." These words were spoken in the most unlikely of situations. A French novelist, Tristan Bernard, and his wife, were being put into prison by the Gestapo, after the Nazis had overrun France. They were being sent to a concentration camp; ...read more

    Echoes That Will Not Die

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 3, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,951 views

    In the song of the angels we hear echoes of our ancient problems -- meaning, sin, peace -- all of which are dealt with in the coming of Christ.

    The drama of Christmas is focused on a starlit night at a manger, on a mother and a babe, on the small things of life. And yet it is also wide open to eternity, it is a window into past and present and future. The drama of Christmas seems to play on such ordinary things. Tax legislation; taxes, ...read more

     | 4,124 views

    This message is a discussion of Commandments 6,7,and 9 of the Ten Commandments and how they are relevant to our relationship with each other. God places a lot of value on the human race. We tend to under value each other.

    NOTE: This message is part of a series on the Ten Commandments and there is an Introduction posted on this website that sets the tone for the focus of the text. Okay, so let's jump into the passage for today: Exodus 20:13 "You shall not murder. We will spend a little time talking about this ...read more

    A sermon for the Sanctity of Human Life Sunday (after reading and meditating on this sermon from Sermon Central's Ed Wood at: http://www.sermoncentral.com/sermons/gods-hand-in-creating-life-ed-wood-sermon-on-abortion-98204.asp I had enough for a sermon)

    HoHum: There were 3 preachers in Barnie’s Coffee shop discussing the time when life begins. They each gave their opinion of when life begins. One preacher said "Life begins when the child takes his/her first breath." The other said "NO," then he finished, "It begins when the child is ...read more

    The Stigma Of Being Holy Series

    Contributed by Kevin Hall on Nov 26, 2012
     | 5,278 views

    There are so many thoughts of half truths pertaining to our own orthodoxies that many get a false sense of what makes us a peculiar group of people to the rest of the world.

    “The Stigma of Being Holy” I Peter 1:16 Over the past few weeks we have interacted with the subject of Stigmas. We’ve talked about the Stigma of what it meant to be Christian. Last week Pastor Chad spoke about the Stigma of a Missionary. So to conclude this Stigma series I want ...read more

    Our eating style reflects and affects who and what we are. It identifies our approach to life. Today I’m not talking about Pizza or Shepherd pie but would like to teach about our Spiritual food and the choices we make.

    Our eating style reflects and affects who and what we are. It identifies our approach to life. If we examine various societies and cultures, we see that each has its traditional foods and food ceremonies. "I am Italian. I often eat spaghetti, lasagna, or pizza," or "I am a real American.

    Laborers Together With God

    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,389 views

    Annual sermon, D. C. Baptist Convention. Clergy and laity will be in conflict, but it can be creative when we recognize our humanness, turn our competitiveness in productivity, and learn to identify where God is already at work.

    I've done a little work through the years in helping ministers get positions on church staffs. Every Baptist minister, I guess, has done that. Where are the bishops when you really need them? But it's been fun to help young ministers, particularly those who were students of mine from my campus ...read more
