    A look at the mock "worship" that the soldiers give Jesus and five ways we too often mock Him in our everyday Christian lives.

    THE SOLDIERS' MOCKERY: The soldiers’ “worship” was a mockery because their actions and words didn’t match their heart. - Mark 15:16-20. - It’s interesting when you dig down into the passages just how much they mimic a worship experience in their mockery of Jesus: a. ...read more

    Rewritten for Calverton Baptist Church, Silver Spring, MD: When terrible things happen, pray honestly, in complaint; remember what God has done in the past; and know that He may be forcing us to see how much we need Him.

    There is very little justice in the world. Many people feel that they are not being treated fairly. Just about all of us think we deserve a better deal than we are getting. We think that there is very little justice in the world. But that’s old news. We already know that. So what do you do ...read more

    July 1989: When we are prospering, we are tempted into the idolatry of me-ism and self-congratulation. This is an opportunity to do more for others and for the Kingdom, for God is the source of our bounty.

    About a year ago, toward the end of July, I placed one of these up here on the pulpit as the visible sermon for the day. Remember? Do you recall what we called that Sunday? Right: we called it "catch-up Sunday" …catch-up Sunday … and the idea was that if we were behind in our giving, if we as a ...read more

    This sermon addresses how we tend to give God our "leftovers" instead of our best.

    The passage of scripture that we’ll be studying today was written around 432 B.C. and it was proclaimed to the children of Israel in city of Jerusalem. Open your bibles with me if you will to Malachi chapter one. I want to give you just a little background on what led up to this message from the ...read more

    Rewritten for Calverton Baptist Church: In a world of injustice, "bad" people get good things they do not deserve. But grace gives us gentle gifts, gives us the satisfaction of outwaiting our enemies, and allows us to wait for God’s justice.

    I was in my office at Takoma Park church, and, as so often happened, someone stopped by to ask for help. The story was very much like most of the stories I had heard. He said that he just needed a few dollars to get by. Tomorrow there would be a job and, “Pastor, if you’ll just give me ...read more

    In this sermon I want to begin with this parable that I just read to you called the Grood Samaritan.

    We need to look at some historical events before we get deeper into this parable. This parable is only included in the book of Luke. There is a reason for that. Why? Luke was a Gentile in the Jewish religion. Matthew and Mark, and John were Jews, and they did not include this parable? ...read more

    ACTS 8:26-40 “He Told Him The Good News” By: Rev.

    What Earthly Good Is The Church, Anyway?

    Contributed by Dennis Lawrence on Jun 3, 2001

     | 3,536 views

    Christians need to understand that the church gives them what they cannot find anywhere else in the world!

    I give all appropriate credit to Rick Warren, "The Purpose Driven Church" for material that made this message possible. What Earthly Use is the Church, Anyway? June 3, 2001 In this Pentecost season, when we celebrate the church, it’s logical to ask the question: What earthly use is the church, ...read more

    When Jesus talk about the vine in John 15, what point is he trying to get across to his disciples, and us today?

    (during this message, although I use the example of the vine like mentioned by Jesus in John 15, I intersect with an example of a tree, the stem(trunk), branch, and fruit.) Text: Galatians 5:22-23 & John 15:1-9 (ESV) This morning let’s answer five questions about John 15:1-9. #1 Who is ...read more

    Beneficial versus detrimental models of manhood juxtaposed in the lives of David and Nabal.

    The 25th chapter of First Samuel tells the story of two vastly different approaches to being a man. One is rewarding and the other ruinous. One is admirable and the other despicable. One is to be repeated and the other repudiated. To this day most men fall into one of the two categories ...read more
