    based on 45 ratings
     | 52,314 views

    What made John stand out that Christ singles him out as the greatest human being born up to that point in time?

    WHAT MADE JOHN THE BAPTIST GREAT? MATTHEW 11:1-11 Introduction: When we think of the greatest men and women of the Bible, we think of Moses, Abraham, David, Sarah, Ruth, Elijah, Peter, and Paul. Yet, Jesus Christ said that no one had ever been born who is greater than John the Baptist. What made ...read more

    MATTHEW 5:13 "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. 14 "You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do they light a lamp and ...read more

    It is really hard to keep up the pretence of being a perfect Christian. It si so hard that you will probably lose your faith.

    Christian freedom – The problem of perfectionism In recent messages we have talked about the things that affect our Christian Freedom. How when we normally claim that we are free people that we automatically accept limits on our freedom. Limits based on cultural limits which might affect freedom ...read more

    The Gold Standard Series

     | 7,016 views

    God doesn’t merely want to meet our expectations, God wants to raise our standards.

    The Gold Standard I want to apologize if what I’m about to share is repetitious. I think my opening illustration was shared with me by our friend and Chairman of Deacons, Robert Johnson, a few months ago, but I’m not positive. Anyway, in 1900, a company called the Detroit Automobile Company ...read more

    The Shadow Of His Style Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,387 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

    A sermon for The Transfiguration of Our Lord, Series B. Preached at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon 2/22/09

    Transfiguration. Now there’s a word you don’t hear every day. In fact, other than one day out of the church year, you might not otherwise hear it. Merriam-Webster’s online dictionary defines the word “Transfiguration” as “a change in form or appearance” or “an exalting, glorifying, or spiritual ...read more

    Life, Liberty, And The Pursuit Of Holiness

    Contributed by Phil Smith on Feb 23, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,960 views

    The pursuit of happiness is a western deception that even takes Christians captive. As followers of Christ, we are in the pursuit of holiness; to glorify God by becoming what he means for us to be. Holiness is the wonderful opportunity of grace.

    Ro 8:22-23 - 22We know that the whole creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time. 23Not only so, but we ourselves, who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies.

    Shaken By His Presence Isaiah 64:1-3 Several months ago the Lord woke me up early in the morning around 3 am. When the Lord chooses to do something like this and I don’t push the snooze button, so to speak, it happens around the same time. This particular morning the Holy Spirit directed me to ...read more

    The first in a series of messages on the complete sufficiency of the Gospel.

    Put yourself in the place of your favorite Old Testament character for a moment. Imagine what it would be like to be them. Perhaps you’d like to be David or Esther or Daniel.

    The politician who sells out to special interests and who has no regard for life is not worthy of our loyalty. We need to get involved in the political process with a servant mentality.

    We have here in our church a long-standing tradition of the separation of church and state. We do not get involved in partisan politics. We do not support candidates, we do not give platforms to those running for political office. This sets us off from some other churches, where it is not at all ...read more

    God specializes in taking hard, difficult, painful messes and turning them into something beautiful. He has done it in the past, and He will do it again.

    Fasting to Feasting September 21, 2008 Zech 8:18-23 Intro: God specializes in taking hard, difficult, painful messes and turning them into something beautiful.

    The Beatles said it best when they sang, “all you need is love” …...and then they broke up. We cannot agape love on our own, we need God to enable us to agape love.

    How can I love? They hurt me. They said this thing that hurt me. I tried to ignore it. I said to myself, “It doesn’t matter, move on, be mature about it, it was just this dumb little thing. But still, I kept thinking about it. I wanted to put it out of my mind, I didn’t want to think about it….but ...read more

    Today we want to look at what made Paul and his team successful as they traveled around sharing the good news about Jesus. Several dynamics emerge from these verses in 1 Thess. 2 that will help us become more effective in sharing God’s grace with others.
