    How Does The Holy Spirit Work In Me?

    Contributed by Jeffrey Dillinger on May 2, 2023
     | 1,908 views

    Sometimes Christians wonder if they have the Holy Spirit because they have not had some overt experience or do not speak in tongues or have an outward miraculous gift. This sermon is for those believers.

    The Spirit's Work and Mind Intro: A. Luke writes a gospel account of the life of Jesus, and then gives us the sequel, the early beginning of the church. It is in the book of Acts we are introduced to the Holy Spirit at work guiding the church leaders and be at work in all disciples of ...read more

    Faith Under Fire Series

    Contributed by Jeffrey Dillinger on Oct 28, 2024
     | 885 views

    This sermon begins a short series of the main stories people know from the book of Daniel. This set up "young Daniel and his 3 friends." It teaches how Nebuchadnezzar changed the minds of children and how Daniel helps us to stand our spiritual ground instead of conform.

    Faith Under Fire (Daniel 1:3-7) Intro: A. The northern Kingdom of Israel fell to the power of Assyria around 722 BC after almost 20 years of a slow demise. The kingdom fell because of sin and God allowed them to be taken into captivity. The southern Kingdom should have taken a great warning ...read more

    No One But God Series

     | 1,104 views

    Does God still speak through dreams? How do you know truth? There are some things that can only be done by God and we need to make sure we follow no one but God.

    No One But God (Daniel 2:9-11) Intro: A. I love when a writer of the Bible just stops what he is writing and beings to praise God. But it is even more impressive to me when someone who is not connected to Jehovah see the work of Jehovah and has to praise Him, even if that person still does not ...read more

    Don't Be A Show Off

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Dec 14, 2018
     | 6,850 views

    This could be used as a stewardship sermon and hopefully would get people to realize that their is more to being a Christian than just filling a pew. Hopefully this sermon compels people to look beyond the superficial and truly look to their heart.

    (a note about the opening illustration; It is not my own but i don't know where I actually found it originally, it is tucked away with some notes I have.) There was a man who called a church and asked if he could speak to the Head Hog at the trough. The secretary said, "Who?" Then ...read more

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Jan 29, 2019
     | 8,687 views

    It shouldnt matter what people think ,say or do to us we should continue spreading the Gospel using truth and not conforming to a watered down version.

    In the text today the Apostle Paul is basically saying that the people of Corinth should think of him as a servant of Christ and manager of God’s secrets. But here is what I want us to see today Paul basically says I’m here as a servant of Christ to be faithful to Him and give you the message of ...read more

    It Doesn't Matter: To God & It Shouldn't Matter To You Series

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Jan 29, 2019
     | 9,481 views

    This is about how it doesn't matter to God where you are from, where you have been or what you have done God can use you anyway

    What am I talking about this Morning? What doesn’t matter to God? It doesn’t matter where you have been or what you have done. What matters is where you are headed. I want you to be honest with yourself this morning, I want you to think about something. If it doesn’t matter to God where someone ...read more

    It Doesn't Matter: Who You Are Series

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Jan 29, 2019
     | 7,391 views

    This sermon should help people realize that their Pedigree and financial statement are not enough to give them salvation. It helps point them in the direction of Christ and a relationship with Him for true eternal salvation

    In our world today who you are means something, you hear it a lot from folks who think their family name and genealogy should mean something to someone. I think the phrase “Do you know who I am” comes out most often when those who think more of themselves than they should are struggling at a ...read more

    Forgiveness Is Difficult

    Contributed by Jeffrey Dillinger on Mar 2, 2021
     | 3,123 views

    The calling for "forgive, just as Jesus has forgiven you," and the quote from Jesus in the Model Prayer, "Forgive us our debts as we forgive our debtors," makes forgiveness a command, not a good thought or request.

    Forgiveness Is Difficult (Col. 3:12-14) Intro: A. He was betrayed by Judas and openly denied by Peter. At his trial no one stood beside him to defend him. He was accused based upon lies and misrepresentation of his words. Pilate knew he was innocent, but as a politician his position in ...read more

    Love Them?

    Contributed by Jeffrey Dillinger on Feb 24, 2020
     | 3,572 views

    Loving God. I can do. Loving your neighbor. I will try, especially if they are fellow Christians. Loving your enemy. I don't if I can do that. How does a person love their enemy?

    Love Them? (Matt. 5:43-48) Intro: A. I want to start this lesson with a word found at the end of our reading. It’s the word “perfect.” “You therefore must be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect.” That calling seems to be impossible, so how could Jesus call upon us to be at the level ...read more

    The Importance Of Love

    Contributed by Jeffrey Dillinger on Jan 31, 2020
     | 7,120 views

    Why is love greater than Faith or Hope? As Christians the faith is the reason we are who we are. Hope is the assurance of where we are going. So what makes Love greater than these?

    The Importance of Love (1 Cor. 13:1-3) Intro: A. For many people, the 23rd Psalm is written in such a way that it not only expresses the heart of David as he reflects upon God, but it express your heart also. It is why is so beloved. Those opening words speak of our union with ...read more

    Christian Love

    Contributed by Jeffrey Dillinger on Feb 15, 2020
     | 4,562 views

    How is a church a family? How do we practically show love to one another? Jesus gave us an example and Paul challenges us to live it.

    Christian Love (Rom. 12:9-13) Intro: A. There is a verse that many Christians know, have heard or been preached from the pulpit so frequently, it the meaning has lost its wonder and awe. To put the verse in the context I take you to the night commonly called the Last Supper. But instead of ...read more

    How Do You Plead?

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Jul 28, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,754 views

    Starting with the notion that we all have been found guilty of sin and stating what some of the charges are before us, the sermon then leads us to turn to Christ as our advocate in order for Jesus to plead our case so that we may find Pardon.

    Isaiah Was born into an Influential, Upper class family He rubbed shoulders with royalty and gave advice on foreign affairs of the nation. He has often been called the evangelical prophet because he says so much about the redemptive work of the Messiah. The 24th chapter of Isaiah is sometimes ...read more

    Bumpin Into Jesus Series

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Nov 27, 2018
     | 5,527 views

    This sermon is about making an effort to encounter Jesus in an intentional way instead of just bumping into him on occasion. It should cause us to look at our relationship with Christ and evaluate whether we are in a relationship with Jesus or if he is just a casual acquaintance.

    In our scripture today we find Jesus surrounded by a large crowd on His way to the home of a synagogue official named Jarius’ whose daughter is dying. Now in the whole of the scripture today we learn of two separate miracles but I want to focus on just one today. I want to focus not on the ...read more

    When Pigs Fly Series

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Nov 27, 2018
     | 6,177 views

    We take a look at Jesus and His encounter with the demonic called Legion. Through this encounter maybe we can find out what Jesus wants with us and how sometimes finding freedom can make us uncomfortable. We also can find that we need a relationship with Jesus in order to change

    In today’s Scripture we find Jesus in the country of Gerasenes, where He encounters a man possessed by many demons. I think this guy would have probably been a frightening site, he ran around the tombs naked and cut himself with stones, we are told that when they tried to chain or shackle him he ...read more

    Let Down & Lifted Up Series

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Nov 27, 2018
     | 6,485 views

    This sermon shows us that our faith matters as much or more than the faith of those that need Jesus. We also learn that sometimes we have to be let down before we can be lifted up.

    Everywhere Jesus went there was always a crowd and in the scripture today we find Jesus teaching in a house and it is packed. We read that a paralyzed man is of the crowd, right in front of Jesus. These guys went out of their way to help a friend because they knew that an audience with Jesus was ...read more
