    The Shadow Of His Style Series

    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Feb 17, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,374 views

    Believers need to learn to expect the unexpected and inexplicable from God, but we won’t experience such until we are sold on God’s one agenda and striving with one accord.

    The shadow of your smile When you are gone Will color all my dreams And light the dawn… The year was 1965. The movie was The Sandpiper. The stars were Elizabeth Taylor as the seductress and the late Richard Burton as the Episcopal priest she seduced. The sentiment in the song is that our ...read more

    Calling Evil Good

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Feb 25, 2009
    based on 7 ratings
     | 11,755 views

    Man calls it an accident, God calls it abomination ... Man calls it a weakness, God calls it willfulness. We live in the last days when people have started to call evil good and good evil ... What will you say about good and evil? The choice is yours!

    Opening illustration: Dr. J. Wilbur Chapman told of a distinguished minister, Dr. Howard, from Australia who preached very strongly on the subject of SIN. After the service, one of the church deacons came to counsel with him in the study. "Dr. Howard," he said, "we don’t want you to talk as openly ...read more

    3d week in Lent Year B: Incorporate the Clear, Profound, and Life-Giving Word into your life

    I love songs that tell me clear and profound things about life. I hate music that is nothing but unintelligible and repetitious rants against everything the musician can see. If you are going to complain and try to influence me, I would hope that as a songwriter, you’d at least be clear and ...read more

    Your alignment with God’s word will determine where you stand (sit, and walk) on any issue. Advice from Scripture is better than advice from anybody else.

    Like a Tree Psalm 1 Why do some people have all the luck? I understand that luck is a fabricated force that many people use to explain how apparently random forces fall one way instead of another. I’m not saying that luck exists. I am simply pointing out that many people, us included, sometimes ...read more

    Together In Disappointment, Together In Hope Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 2, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,131 views

    Church life is full of disappointments, but it can be equally full of hope and fulfillment. The key is to stay together and see what God will do. God is a God of abundance and not of scarcity.

    We serve a God of abundance and not a God of scarcity. Ours is the God who possesses the cattle on a thousand hills. He is not a dilettante deity with nothing in His hands; He is the God who flung the stars into space and who has made all things. All things are made by Him and all things are at ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,616 views

    Salvation seems elusive, whether it means personal peace, reconciliation, or productive life. Good Friday we see what God will do about that frustration.

    I Everyone gets frustrated. In ways small or great, we feel the frustration of not being able to do what we want to do, not being able have what we want to have, not being able to achieve as we would want to achieve. Young people, by nature, dream great dreams. If you give them half a chance, ...read more

    INTRO.- ILL.- A man asked the preacher, “How many active members do you have in your church?” The preacher said, “They’re all active. Half of them are working with me and half of them are working against me.” AND THIS DOES HAPPEN IN SOME CHURCHES. What’s a preacher to do in a situation like ...read more

    based on 37 ratings
     | 31,250 views

    Zechariah (the father of John the Baptist) declared certain prophecies about the coming Messiah and how He would fulfill the dream of a "white Christmas" for Israel. What were these prophecies, and how did Jesus fulfill them?

    OPEN: (I began the sermon by leading the congregation in singing “White Christmas”) I’m dreaming of a White Christmas, just like the ones I used to know. Where the treetops glisten, and children listen to hear sleigh bells in the snow. I’m dreaming of a white Christmas with every Christmas card ...read more

    The Bald Eagle Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 6, 2008
    based on 20 ratings
     | 14,507 views

    Micah’s symbol of the bald eagle, a sign of grief, applies to America. We are abandoning justice, kindness, and the humble walk with God. Our collapse is from within rather than from without. Yet God has sent a different kind of conqueror to redeem us.

    What we see is more powerful than what we hear. The visual always trumps the audible. I learned a long time ago that what people see is more powerful than what they hear. I learned it when I sat through an education professor’s hour-long lecture about why lecturing was the least effective way to ...read more
