    God spoke to the people in exile through Isaiah. In the midst of their darkness, they heard the voice of grace, the voice of hope and the voice of truth.

    The book of Isaiah is a remarkably long book, divided into two parts. • The first 39 chapters talk about condemnation, God’s judgement for the sin of Israel. The people had abandoned God. • The last 27 chapters talk about redemption, God’s forgiveness for the people, and the deliverance by a ...read more

    A different kind of sermon - going back and forth between a reading of Isaiah and illustrative sermons that bring the text to the listner’s reality.

    Special instructions - "quoted" material should be read by one reader and is the text of Isaiah 40. Material beginning with numbers can be split up amongst different readers or read by the pastor/sermon deliverer. “Comfort, comfort my people, says your God.” 1Isaiah is an old man now. His ...read more

    The song "He’s Got the Whole World..." declares the comforting message that God is in control. But does He have the WHOLE world in His hands?

    God’s words through the Prophet Isaiah give us a glimpse at what is necessary if true revival is going to come to Christ’s Church.

    Introduction: What is Revival? Maybe a better question would be, "Why are we here this morning when there are many other places which most of us could be?’ That final statement may give us a clue: where we could be. Revival must first and foremost be a conscience decision on our part to accept ...read more

    We know, in the abstract sense, that God can do anything, but we have a problem believing that He’ll do anything for us.

    The gospel is the message, the good news, that God’s promise of salvation has been accomplished. It’s the message that those who have been in exile from God’s presence are to be brought back. It’s the message that for those who believe in Jesus Christ, wh

    Mark begins his account of the life of Jesus with these words: "The beginning of the good news (or the gospel) of Jesus Christ, the Son of God." So the question I want to ask today is this: what do you understand by that word Gospel? Is it just the life of Jesus, like a potted history? Or is it ...read more
