    A sermon about giving the Government what it is due and giving everything to God

    In the culture of our text today two invitations were expected, the first to inform the guest that there was going to be a wedding, then the second was to let everyone know that everything was ready. In the parable today, we see that the king has sent out three invites. Number one isn’t written ...read more

  • It's All About Love

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Oct 28, 2017
     | 9,098 views

    This sermon is about the two greatest commandments Jesus gives the Pharisees when He is questioned. Also it calls into question whether we are a player or a spectator in our church.

    Well Jesus had passed the test of the Sadducees’ and had shut them down so the Pharisees stepped up to the plate so to speak. Now the Sadducees were more of a political group but the Pharisees were the keepers of scripture and Biblical Law, there were 632 laws and rules for the practice of their ...read more

  • Who Do You Trust ?

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Dec 1, 2018
     | 7,823 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
     | 5,932 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

  • Be Ready

    based on 3 ratings
     | 19,654 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

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Dec 14, 2018
     | 6,797 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

  • Ready Or Not !!

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Oct 18, 2016
     | 13,857 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
     | 6,778 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
     | 10,412 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

  • Bumpin Into Jesus Series

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Nov 27, 2018
     | 5,454 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
     | 6,126 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
     | 6,416 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

    A sermon about five simple things that we all need to realize.

    Have you ever had anyone ask you how they could become a Christian or if you could explain to them what it meant to be a Christian? Have you ever wondered what you would say to someone that was wanting to understand what it meant to become a Christian? We need to know what we would tell someone if ...read more

  • Immediately

     | 2,155 views

    What causes us to respond to something immediately? In this sermon I will examine that Jesus CALLS, Jesus COMMISSIONS and They CAME.

    Immediately (Mark 1:17-20) Intro: A. It may have happened in your life. You get a phone call and drop everything to leave. There isn’t time to plan. What you just heard calls for immediate action. It may have been upsetting news like an accident or death, or it may have been exciting news ...read more

  • Seen And Unseen Sin And Good Works

    Contributed by Jeffrey Dillinger on Dec 13, 2022
     | 1,800 views

    Some sins are seen by all, others are able to hid their sins all their life. Some good works are seen by all, others are private and only seen by God.

    The Seen and Unseen (1 Tim. 5:24-25) Intro: A. I am sure most of us have seen headline news where a spiritual leader is caught in some type of scandal. Their picture is plastered all over the front cover of the newspaper or brought up one radio or TV news. As Christians we hurt when our ...read more
