  • Can't Have One Without The Other

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Sep 5, 2015
     | 6,083 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
     | 3,108 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
     | 3,971 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

     | 8,123 views

    This sermon was preached on transfiguration Sunday and it tells us how Jesus can transform our lives if we seek and follow Him

    Transforming with Christ Luke 9:28-36 We read in the text today about Jesus and three of His closest friends, Peter, James and John having a prayer meeting on the mountaintop. Jesus took these three up the mountain with him and as he prayed a change came over him his facial expression changed and ...read more

  • Ready Or Not !!

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Oct 18, 2016
     | 13,892 views

    This is a sermon to get people to think about the return of Jesus Christ. Hopefully it will help us realize that Jesus will return whether we are ready or not.

    Tell a childhood Hide & Seek Story Read Scripture (Rev. 22:12-17, 20) There are more than 50 passages in the Bible that tell us that Jesus is going to return. In the short passage of text that was just read Jesus says twice that He is coming back and that He is coming quickly. Trust me when I ...read more

  • How Long Has It Been

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Oct 18, 2016
     | 6,798 views

    This sermon is about living a long time with issues and problems without asking God to intervene on our behalf. This sermon points us to the question of 1. Do we want to be healed 2. How long has it been since you reached out to Jesus.

    I reference these two scriptures and paraphrase the stories John 5:1-9 Mark 5:25 - 34 I. Both have been Sick a Long Time ( 38yrs & 12 yrs) 1. Two very different people with a similar situation 2. They aren¡¦t the only ones sick 3. They both have been trying to get better they want a ...read more

  • Prayer Meeting

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Oct 21, 2016
     | 10,428 views

    This is a sermon calling us to repentance from a better than thou attitude of the Pharisee

    When we look at the text today we see that Dr. Luke made no bones about who Jesus was addressing in this parable. Jesus was telling this parable to the high and mighty, holier than thou folks. He was addressing the religious folks that acted like they were just a little better than everyone else. ...read more

  • Forgiveness Is Difficult

    Contributed by Jeffrey Dillinger on Mar 2, 2021
     | 3,096 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

     | 8,640 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

     | 9,427 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
     | 7,357 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

  • Be Ready

    based on 3 ratings
     | 19,710 views

    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

     | 6,820 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

  • Do People Still Want To See Jesus?

    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,883 views

    This sermon talks about things in our world but points toward the hope found in Jesus

    You know, things have changed a lot since I was a kid. I remember when everything revolved around the church and these days it seems we juggle church around everything else and I think it causes society to lack something, and sometimes I wonder, do people still want to see Jesus, do folks still ...read more
