    Part I - Mary – The Voice Of Servanthood Series

    Contributed by Eric Peloquin on Dec 15, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,712 views

    This is partone in a series looking at some of the characters in the Christmas narrative and what they can teach us. Mary’s humble response to the Angel of the Lord is a powerful example of a young woman with the heart of a servant.

    The Voices of Christmas Part I Mary – the Voice of Servanthood Mary may be the most controversial figure in the scriptures because of the doctrines of the Roman Catholic Church regarding Mary. They teach that she is the co-redemptrix with Christ. They also teach that she was without sin and ...read more

    When we realize our need for God and our sinfulness-our pride is broken and only then can we begin to humbly submit ourselves to God and live under His control.

    The Road to Happiness-Matt. 5:5 Intro: Home Improvement-more power Similar to my experience with power tools. Power tools scare me. Too much power for me to control and feel safe.

    The purpose of this sermon is to motivate the hearers to affirm to others that miraculous things occur in the lives of believers when they humble themselves, but pride (and a bad attitude) will cause them to spiritually crash and burn.

    So You Think You're A Leader?

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Oct 25, 2012
     | 5,197 views

    Jesus presents a stark contrast to the disciples', and our, perception of leadership and status. "You want to be first?" Jesus says, "Then humble yourself. You want to be a great leader. Then become a servant."

    Leadership, it seems, is quite the buzzword these days. In just about every field of work and study, focus is often on developing strong leaders. We all know a good leader when we see one; we can all identify the great leaders in human history. And I think each of us can name at least some of the ...read more

    A Blueprint For Being Fully Human

    Contributed by Clair Sauer on Feb 10, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,486 views

    Our natural tendency is to hold on to anger and harbor grudges, but Jesus teaches that if we are to be fully human as God intends us to be, we have to humble ourselves and seek forgiveness and reconciliation.

    It happens all the time. We're watching it unfold in Egypt. Some say it prompted the shootings aimed at Representative Giffords in Arizona. It is sadly common. A leading politician makes a gesture of contempt towards the opposition. Someone on the other side reacts angrily. Soon dozens of people ...read more

    How do you know if you’ve humbled yourself to God... or if you are still dominated by pride and selfishness. Who is big "I" and who is the little "i" in your relationship with God?

    One day a woman came home to find her husband in the kitchen, shaking frantically with what looked like a wire running from his waist to the electric coffeepot he had in his hand. It seemed that he was being electrocuted. So - intending to jolt him away from the deadly current - she whacked him ...read more

     | 20,466 views

    Vigilance is very essential in these last days. The Bible says, “Be sober.” That is, “be quiet,” “be calculative,” “have a sound mind,” “be humble,” “be attentive,” “be careful.”

    REARRANGING THE PROBLEM Dr. D. K. Olukoya Judges7: 1-7says,“Then Jerubbaal, who is Gideon, and all the people that were with him, rose up early, and pitched beside the well of Harod: so that the host of the Midianites were on the north side of them, by the hill of Moreh, in the valley.

    We live in a status-seeking world. But when Jesus comes as a tiny infant in a humble set of circumstances, He shows us that the way to live is one of obedience and giving up control.

    God will hear our prayers, forgive our sins, heal our land, but we must humble ourselves, pray and seek His face, and turn from our wicked ways.

    Motivated To Follow Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Nov 2, 2016
     | 8,597 views

    Following his discourse on the obedience of Christ, and an admonition for the believer to possess the mind of Christ, Paul discusses what that looks like in a mature believer. This is humbling, and impossible within ourselves, but possible in Christ.

    Motivated to Follow Philippians 2: 12-18 One of the greatest means of motivation is a great illustration or example. Following the great discourse on the obedience of Christ, having provided the great example for believers to follow, Paul offers a discourse on our obligations to follow the example ...read more

    The Existence And Presence Of Almighty God", Part 2

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 24, 2023
     | 829 views

    God's existence is obvious (Romans 1:18-20) through creation and our conscience. The evidence is there for anyone willing to take their blinders off, swallow their pride, and humble themselves.

    The world cannot comprehend the idea of a precise, preconceived, set, rational, and personal creation of a God who is outside of space, time, and matter, and able to put everything into existence for a reason. They wish to stay blind to the obvious and shut their ears to the truth that we are ...read more
