    Many people want to see changes taking place in their lives. The usual prescription given today is, "Just try harder!" But that doesn’t produce true, genuine, lasting life-transformation. In James 4:6-10 James teaches how God changes a person.

    Scripture I once read a Peanuts comic strip where Lucy told Charlie Brown that she would hold the football for him to kick. But when he ran up to kick the ball, she pulled it away.

    This sermon looks at how the story of the Narnia character Edmund is the story of a sinner who comes to find the danger of sin and the victory of the redeemed.

    Yesterday I took my girls to see the movie “Narnia: The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe” and I have to tell you I was really impressed. I had told myself I was going to wait to see it till we took the kids from the church to see it, but I just couldn’t wait. I figured since I was preaching on ...read more

    Jews are just as guilty as Gentiles

    Romans 2:17-29, having shown that outwardly moral people, Jew and Gentile alike-will stand condemned by God’s judgment, Paul turns his argument exclusively to the Jews, God’s covenant people.

    A sermon explaining that Satan was created as Lucifer, rebelled, was thrown down to earth, and still wages war - through us! Audio/outline/powerpoint will be at www.sermonlist.com

    I don’t know how many times over the years I have been asked who I think Satan really is. Now, that may not surprise you, but what should surprise you is that almost all of these questions came from people who referred to themselves as born-again Christians. That reminds me of an old Twilight ...read more
