  • Can't Have One Without The Other

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Sep 5, 2015
     | 6,103 views

    Hopefully this sermon will explain that faith moves us to do good works. It also shows that it is our actions that count not just things we say and we should evaluate our spiritual lives regularly

    When I worked for the City around this time of year we started working on our budgets. We would evaluate all of our training programs and try and increase spending in the programs that worked and phase out those that didn’t or weren’t absolutely necessary. Businesses do it all the ...read more

  • Don't You Get It

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Sep 5, 2015
     | 3,117 views

    Hopefully this sermon would get people to look at themselves and realize that we should reserve judgment about others and the congregation would begin to realize that their relationship with Christ is what really matters.

    Don’t you get it? Romans 2: 17 – 23 I. Are we judging people by a higher standard that we ourselves don’t live up to, do we tend to take on an attitude of privilege or perhaps a holier than thou attitude? 1. We may think this text is just for the Jews • In Galatians Paul ...read more

  • Controlling The Tiny Terror

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Sep 12, 2015
     | 3,978 views

    This sermon makes us aware that our words do harm others and offers insight on how to change our thinking so the things we say will bring up-building to others

    Just so you know the title of this sermon isn’t about how to discipline my 2 year old grandson Kaden. Even though it’s pretty hard to get a handle on a 2 year old strong willed little boy , it’s even harder to get a handle on something each of us possess that is much, much ...read more

    Introduction to "Discovering Jesus," a series exploring the life of Christ from the book of Mark.

    Introduction I hadn’t really thought about it until just recently, but for all of my adult life I have been on a quest. The goal of my quest is to ascertain, apprehend and acquiesce to the person known, in English, as the Lord Jesus. I have wanted to go beyond my immediate, personal and ...read more

  • Wade In The Water

    Does it really matter what mode of Baptism that is used , the important thing is being baptized by the Holy spirit.

    Today is the day that we as United Methodist acknowledge and celebrate the Baptism of our Lord and Savior. Baptism is a sacrament in the United Methodist Church and is not something that we take lightly, our baptism is a very important step in our life. And in the United Methodist Church we ...read more

  • Bumpin Into Jesus Series

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Nov 27, 2018
     | 5,519 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
     | 6,171 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
     | 6,477 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

  • Who Do You Trust ?

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Dec 1, 2018
     | 7,858 views

    This sermon begs us to look at ourselves and decide who we really trust. Are we putting our trust in ourselves or other people or do we put our trust and Hope in God

    We all have to put our trust in someone or something. It might be God, or it might be another person, or it may be material things. We all give some sort of trust to others we trust that the car we are meeting will stay on there side of the road. But that’s not the kind of trust that we are ...read more

  • Born Again

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Dec 1, 2018
     | 5,984 views

    If we are to be true Christians we must change from our old self into something new. This transformation takes place when we are born again by water and spirit. Its not enough just to say we are Christians we must be born again.

    If we are to be Christians we are called to change from our old self into something new I want to read a few scriptures about that change before we get into our sermon text for today. Ephesians 4:22-24 (NASB) in reference to your former manner of life, you lay aside the old self, which is being ...read more

    This sermon compels the listener to ask the question, "If Jesus returns today am I ready?" It talks about our fears and that we as Christians really have nothing to fear

    (Ask this question loudly before beginning sermon Intro)Are You Ready? I didn’t hear you, Are You Ready?? I don’t think you’re hearing me ARE YOU READY??? Be ready is a motto that I lived by when I was on the fire department. We all knew the best way to be prepared for whatever we encountered ...read more

  • Don't Be A Show Off

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Dec 14, 2018
     | 6,843 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

     | 4,385 views

    We are more than just Easter proclaimers, we are Easter people. Yes, it's important to share Jesus on social media, but it is more important to be people who live out the Easter story every day of our lives.

    Easter People (Rom. 6:1-4) Intro: A. There was a truth that was known, yet not believed. Jesus had been very clear to many that he would rise up from the dead on the third day. This truth was known to the religious leaders who hated Jesus so they went to Pilate with a request. Listen to ...read more
