  • The Cross Opens Our Eyes

    Contributed by Mike Cleveland on Nov 9, 2008
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,016 views

    The disciples on the road to Emmaus had their eyes opened when the bread was broken. The songwriter wrote, "at the cross, at the cross, where I first saw the light..." The cross opens our eyes.

    Johyn 8. Nicky Cruz was the leader of the toughest gang in New York City. His Satanist parents abused him brutally, so he grew up a hardened man void of love and full of hate. “I wanted to do to others what my mother did to me,” Nicky says. “I used to feel good when I hurt people.” But privately, ...read more

    Jesus sends his followers out into the plentiful harvest. We along with the early disciples are called to prepare the way for Jesus and to carry out his ministry on earth--and in the United States.

    Luke 10:1-11, 16-20 “Sent Out” INTRODUCTION Today is the 234th anniversary of signing of the Declaration of Independence the document that contains those immortal words, “We hold these truths to be self-evident; that all men are created equal and endowed with certain ...read more

  • Dead Prophets Society

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 4, 2009
     | 4,307 views

    For Transfiguration Sunday: we, like the disciples, have not imagined Christ as who He is, we as who we can become, or the cost of glory ... losing our lives to save them.

    Every one who teaches knows what a mighty struggle it is to teach anybody anything and make it stick. Students come to school drowsy and distracted. Some are there because they have to be; some because Daddy’s money put them there; and some just because they cannot think of anything else to do. ...read more

  • What's Love Got To Do With It?

    Contributed by Reg Watson on Aug 6, 2009
    based on 14 ratings
     | 26,968 views

    We can have the same confidence of God’s love for us that John had when he acknowledged that he was "the disciple whom Jesus loved" (Jn 13:23).

    “What’s Love Got To Do With It?” John 13:23 If you were to guess, what do you think is the one thing in life a person wants more than anything else? Fame, wealth, beauty, status, power, position? I would argue that while a lot of people think that any one of, or a combination of, these would make ...read more

    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on May 21, 2009
     | 2,807 views

    After Jesus taught His disciples to pray, He shared some parables about our persistence in prayer and the certainty of God’s great gift in answer--the Holy Spirit.

    For someone who doesn’t have a lot to be proud of, I’m afraid that I have to confess that I have acted with pride far too often in my life. Now, I don’t mean that I’ve surrounded myself with a “posse” of fans and supporters. I don’t mean that I’ve deliberately put anybody down or ignored them ...read more

  • Unable To Be Silenced Series

    Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Apr 24, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,295 views

    The disciples were bold in their witness to what Jesus Christ had done. Attempts by the authorities to silence them failed. God had called them to be his witnesses and they could not keep silent.

    Acts 5:27-32 “Unable to be Silenced” INTRODUCTION There are times that the courage of others amazes us. Recently I viewed the movie, “The Hurt Locker.” It is a story about the war in Iraq. I was amazed and humbled by the courage of the soldiers who were portrayed in ...read more

  • Prayer Before Making Decisions

    Contributed by Tammy Garrison on Oct 9, 2002
    based on 48 ratings
     | 12,165 views

    Jesus spent a night in prayer before picking the disciples. What would our life be like if we prayed before picking OUR friends, or before making any important decision?

    Our Bible lesson tonight, takes place early in the beginning of Jesus’ ministry. However, he has already been very busy. He began his teaching ministry in Galilee where he was initially well received. But it wasn’t long until his teachings began to rub some people, particularly the religious ...read more

    The healing of 10 lepers and the Samaritan in particular illustrates Jesus response to the disciples request for increased faith. "If you have faith as a mustard seed . . ." Jesus said, the impossible will become possible.

  • Dirty Feet At The Table

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 27, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,083 views

    The Lord's washing of all the disciples' feet reminds us that all of us need cleansing, that His cleansing starts us on the way to holiness, and that we are then empowered to help others toward cleansing.

    When I was growing up, there were very definite rules about what you did or did not do at the dinner table. Obviously, everyone was expected to wash their hands before coming to the table and then to wait quietly while prayer was offered. To this day, if I rush to eat something without doing both ...read more

  • Submission On Palm Sunday

    based on 6 ratings
     | 14,159 views

    The period before Jesus's Triumphal Entry in Luke 19 describe three pictures of submission: The submission of Jesus to go to the cross; of the disciples with an odd instruction by Jesus; and of the colt that carried Jesus into Jerusalem.

    Submission on Palm Sunday Chuck Sligh March 24, 2013 TEXT: Please turn in your Bibles to Luke 19 INTRODUCTION Today—one week before Easter Sunday—is what is known as Palm Sunday. It’s so called because of the palm branches used in Jesus’s triumphal entry into Jerusalem. ...read more

  • Leftovers

    Contributed by Wayne Lawson on Oct 3, 2013
    based on 12 ratings
     | 51,910 views

    Why did Jesus send his disciples around after everyone was full to gather up the fragments that remained? It is interesting that we are not told what Jesus had done with the leftover fragments.

    TITLE: LEFTOVERS SCRIPTURE: ST. JOHN 6:5-14 What an exciting passage of Scripture that should stir us every time we read it. It has always interest me that this particular Miracle is one of a select few recorded in all four Gospel Narratives. It therefore has significance in its teaching to us ...read more

  • Holy Spirit παράκλητος

    Jesus predicts that He must return to heaven but He will give His disciples and the world the Holy Spirit παράκλητος.

    Holy Spirit παράκλητος “I assure you that it is better for you that I go away. If I don’t go away, the (παράκλητος) Companion won’t come to you. But if I go, I will send him to ...read more

  • Guidelines For Christianity: The Fruit Of Self-Control Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Mar 31, 2015
     | 5,796 views

    Where do you need the spiritual grace of self-control? Seek the Lord for direction, and let Him mold you into a Disciple that is controlled at all times and in all circumstances by the Holy Spirit.

    “. . . the fruit of the spirit is . . . self-control. . .” (Gal. 5:22-23) Not too long ago I watched the movie “Castaway” with Tom Hanks. He was stranded on this island after a plane crash in the ocean. He had nothing to eat at first but coconuts. He had to master the ...read more

  • God Is Seeking Worshipers Series

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on Oct 20, 2015
     | 6,446 views

    What an amazing passage. Jesus uses the most unlikely of persons to teach us and His disciples true worship. Come and learn what worship is and that God is seeking those that will bow and serve.

    Intro: We come to John four and we find Jesus exhausted. The word translated worn out means to work until totally spent or exhausted. Jesus came in His worn out state to the woman at the well to teach us all what worship really is. A good question to ask ourselves is why this woman? Why this ...read more
