    Holes In The Darkness

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Sep 22, 2010
    based on 6 ratings
     | 4,220 views

    You are the light of the world. As you live out this goodness visibly in front of the people of the world, your life will point them to Jesus where they too can find life that is real life.

    Opening illustration: Robert Lewis Stevenson, peering out of the window saw a workman come by and light the gas lights along the street. When asked what he was watching, the young boy said, “I see a man making holes in the darkness.” Let us turn to Matthew 5 and see how we as believers can make ...read more

    "Freedom In A Prison Cell"

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on May 4, 2010
    based on 10 ratings
     | 7,772 views

    Are we able to rejoice, even when the times get rough? Or does our faith depend on everything “going our way?” There is a cotton-candy like view of Christianity that promises all health and wealth, but it melts away when reality strikes.

    Acts 16:16-34 “Freedom in a Prison Cell” There is a lot to be learned from the example of Christians who live in third-world countries, and don’t have the freedom we might often take for granted. Will Willimon tells the story of a Bishop from Angola who came to visit America a ...read more

    Taking The Stand

     | 3,976 views

    Giving a clear testimony of the Gospel is part of being a follower of Christ.

    Testimony. What goes through your mind when you hear that word? Maybe a court scene and telling about a crime you witnessed. Or making a statement to the Police. Or standing in front of a large group to share your personal experience with God. The word “testimony” comes from the word ...read more

    The Outsiders

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Oct 20, 2011
     | 6,496 views

    Are we mindful of how we come across to unbelievers? Are we aware of how the unchurched look at those who call themselves Christians? It would serve us well to gain a better understanding about how important it is to present ourselves in the right way.

    THE OUTSIDERS INTRODUCTION: We come to church and we’re mostly surrounded by “insiders” people who are Christians like us but how much consideration do we give to those who are still outside? Are we mindful of how we come across to unbelievers? Do we care how we present ...read more

    Difference Makers Are Different Series

    Contributed by David Swanger on Mar 6, 2013
     | 6,717 views

    To make a difference, one must be different. Such is a real possibility as we become salt and light before a decaying and dark world.

    You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men. You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a ...read more

    We have all experienced that it is much easier to talk about witnessing than to actually witness. Today we will discover that the instructions Jesus gave help to remove the pressure and guilt that Christians sometimes feel about witnessing.

    Jesus told us to “be his witnesses.” We have all experienced that it is much easier to talk about witnessing than to actually witness. Today we are going to study the Commands of Christ that are related to our witness. We will discover that the instructions he gave really help to ...read more

    The word, "Christian", sometimes carries a bad connotation in our society; Would someone be "jealous" of your faith in the Lord Jesus Christ?

    We all feel the pain and loss when mourning the death of a loved one. But God knows that there are people who are mourning in a different way. There are those who are mourning for this lost world and those who have not accepted the salvation that only

    The premise of our subject today comes from 1 Thessalonians 1:6 were Paul commends the church in Thessalonica for being imitators of Jesus. They are such great role models for other Christians and churches to follow that their devotion and mirror image of

    Someone once said that you and I might be the only Bible someone ever reads, so we need to be something worth reading. Are you available to be that shelter for a non-believing friend?

    An Oasis in the Desert by Otis McMillan The word “oasis” has a refreshing sound to it, does it? It means a retreat, a haven, or a sanctuary. Read and meditate on these verses from Isaiah 32. "And a man shall be as a hiding place from the wind, and a shelter from the tempest, like streams of ...read more

    How To Reach Out For Jesus Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 24, 2021
     | 2,141 views

    Jesus persistently reached out to unbelievers despite the dangers to Himself. His commitment to this cause and creativity doing so challenges us to do the same, especially around major Christian holidays.

    1. When you truly become a born again believer in Christ, several things become immediately apparent to you. a. You have had the great fortune of finding the way to heaven, Jesus Christ, and that it’s by faith in Him, not as works, as most people believe. b. You have been saved from an ...read more

    Be Brace, Speak And Don't Give Up! Series

     | 11,248 views

    Sometimes we don't see much visible fruit, or past attempts to witness or minister were not outwardly successful and tempted to hold back our witness or cut back our service. God's words to Paul Acts 18:5-11 are just the prescription.

Series: Acts Chuck Sligh August 6, 2017 TEXT: Please turn in your Bibles to Acts 18:5-11 – “And when Silas and Timotheus were come from Macedonia, Paul was pressed in the spirit, and testified to the Jews that Jesus was Christ. 6 And when they opposed themselves, ...read more
