    Contributed by Michael Luke on Sep 23, 2003
    based on 109 ratings
     | 11,902 views

    In a culture where truth is relative, it’s essential for the church of Christ to remain dedicated to proclaiming the truth of Scripture.

    Jesus is bigger than what you are going through

    Intro: (Start w/Blank) In Budapest, a Jewish man went to his rabbi and complained, "Life is unbearable for my family & I. There are nine of us living in one room. What can I do?" The rabbi thought about it for a moment and answered, "Take your goat into the room with you." The man was ...read more

  • Dead Man Walking

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 26, 2003
    based on 61 ratings
     | 11,485 views

    There is a kind of death in family life today. Jesus offers unconditional compassion, used His authority to give life, and gives us as gifts to one another.

    One sweltering afternoon, on the dirty streets of a dangerous section of New Orleans, a man approached a woman with some papers in his hand. He asked Helen if she would agree to write letters to a man on death row at Angola prison. Helen agreed, rather absent-mindedly. She was used to people ...read more

  • Church Growth - How To Lose A Guy In Ten Days Series

    Contributed by Ken Kersten on Jun 3, 2003
    based on 221 ratings
     | 15,518 views

    The title of this message is “How to lose a guy in ten days". Unfortunately, most churches usually lose them in about 10 minutes. Let’s explore why that happens.

    How To Lose A Guy In Ten Days Matthew 28:18-20 True story – Football team getting killed – guy fumbles and it rolls over by a teammate. The guy that fumbles yells, “pick it up” to which his teammate responds, “You pick it up. You dropped it.” Well, I’ll tell you what, God is looking for some ...read more

  • Down To Earth Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 4, 2003
    based on 20 ratings
     | 6,988 views

    Spiritual laziness comes from poor theology and from creating the illusion of activity, leading to burnout. The grace of Christ takes us beyond such posing.

    My topic today is spiritual laziness. Spiritual laziness. Now we are all familiar with physical laziness. Physical laziness is like spring fever, when the warmth of the air and the sound of the birds is far more attractive than the piles of paper on your desk or the lectures in your classroom. ...read more

  • Universality Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 11, 2003
    based on 23 ratings
     | 13,338 views

    Thanks to Constantine’s move, the church gradually began to think of its universality as power rather than as an evangelical mandate. Christ is to be lord of our political life, our cultural life, our everyday life -- every aspect.

    Christ is lord of all! What a bold statement! Maybe even an arrogant statement! Lord of all? Do we believe that? It was said of one preacher that “for tender minds he served up half a Christ.” Behind that lie two realities – first, that many of us don’t want the full gospel, we’d rather just ...read more

  • Canadian Idols

    Contributed by Denn Guptill on Jun 16, 2003
    based on 34 ratings
     | 4,442 views

    Canadian Idol looks at different idols we worshipping using the television program as the theme.

    You may think that the show Canadian Idol had it’s roots in the hit American Idol which debuted last summer on the Fox Network in the US. The truth however is that like many American television shows the concept was first seen in the UK. In this case it was a wildly popular British Program called ...read more

  • Work To Eat Or Eat To Work?

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 17, 2003
    based on 44 ratings
     | 11,130 views

    Why work? Work has meaning as a witness, as a way of focusing our efforts for the Kingdom. Look at the work of Christ, so that you do not lose motivation to work.

    Is there anyone here today whose name is Rockefeller? No? Then maybe there is a member of the Kennedy family, other than Mrs. Currie – and I don’t think she is of the Hyannisport Kennedys? No one? Well, let me try someone else – the Sultan of Brunei, possibly the richest person in the world. ...read more

  • Drive Out Sin Or It Will Drive You

    Contributed by James May on Jun 22, 2003
    based on 91 ratings
     | 15,349 views

    God’s command to Israel to drive out every idol and every idolater from Canaan has a definite meaning to every Christian. Drive out every sin.

    DRIVE OUT SIN OR IT WILL DRIVE YOU! Judges 2:1-22 One of the greatest problems that I see in the church is that fact that too many people follow the same path that Israel followed when they first entered into the Promised Land. They were quick to forget the great miracles of deliverance that God ...read more

  • Spring Cleaning

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Jun 24, 2003
    based on 98 ratings
     | 39,742 views

    Over time, our lives tend to fill up with the clutter and debris of sin. How to prevent that from happening, and how to conduct "spring cleaning" when it does.

    All physical systems, over time, accumulate debris. It’s an unfortunate fact of life. They get cluttered, and clogged, and congested, and that hinders the operation of the system. Let me give you some random examples. As we age, plaque tends to build up in our veins and arteries, which gradually ...read more

  • Jairus Series

    Contributed by Byron Harvey on Jul 16, 2003
    based on 116 ratings
     | 21,923 views

    This is a message I did on Jairus, an eyewitness of Christ. Each message in this series was prefaced by a dramatic monologue, which is included.

    Jairus MONOLOGUE (Stands behind a pulpit to face his congregation) How does a man deal with having his world rocked, not once, but twice in the same day? I mean, when you’re a “man of the cloth”, you’re supposed to have it all together, you know? You see people die, you’re supposed to have all ...read more

  • Sick Religion And Healed Hearts

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 29, 2003
    based on 101 ratings
     | 18,668 views

    Religion is sick when it is system-only, salvation-only, or self-only. Christ gives us instead a relationship with Himself, a model of life, and an embracing compassion.

    Religion is either one of life’s greatest blessings, or it is one of the sickest things we do. Religion can be wonderful. I assume that because you are in church today you agree with that. Religion can be fulfilling, it can be instructive, it can be inspiring. Religion has driven so much of ...read more

  • Why Do You Ask? Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 29, 2003
    based on 14 ratings
     | 2,796 views

    Neither conservatives nor liberals are really interested in learning; all want their opinions confirmed. Jesus teaches us how to deal with both by asking questions to test the argumentative spirit, to test honesty, and to get people to listen to their ow

    Some folks want their religion to confirm everything they’ve already committed to, but other folks want, or say they want, a religion that will challenge to change. And there isn’t much common ground between these two types. Or is there? Some folks want their religion to confirm everything ...read more

  • Loving People And Using Things Series

    Contributed by Victor Yap on Jul 29, 2003
    based on 51 ratings
     | 5,662 views

    Jesus: Friend of Sinners, Part 7 of 7.

    LOVING PEOPLE AND USING THINGS (LUKE 19:1-10) One of the greatest novels written, as well as my favorite Broadway musical, is “Les Miserables,” the story of Jean Valjean’s transformation from an uncaring and unfeeling man into a kind, noble, generous, sacrificial and selfless man later in life. He ...read more
