    The Twelve Men Who Shaped The World , Part 3 - The Apostle Andrew Series

    Contributed by Warren Lamb on Jul 8, 2006
    based on 17 ratings
     | 17,941 views

    Jesus drew from the same raw materials that He draws from today when He calls men and women to be His disciples. In this series, we are looking at each of the Twelve as in-depth as we can, based upon what we can know and discern from the Scripture.

    Once again we turn to the 10th Chapter of the Gospel of Matthew. We focused on the Apostle Peter last time, and we learned quite a bit about how Jesus can use the raw material of a person who is willing to be used. What do you remember about the way the disciples are grouped and paired in the ...read more

    A Heart For Prevailing Prayer

    Contributed by Rodney Coe on Feb 10, 2015
     | 5,297 views

    What does it mean to have a heart for prayer?

    Webster’s dictionary defines prevailing as having superior force or influence. When we think of prayer as believers, as children of God do you describe your prayer life as having superior force or influence with God? I believe one thing that will mark a person who has influence with men and ...read more

    . Too many people do this still today, they run to God’s grace desiring eternal life in heaven, but quickly pull back from God at the first hint of obligation or responsibility to this grace we freely enjoy.

    Intro: A little boy was sick on Palm Sunday and stayed home from church with his mother. His father returned from church holding a palm branch. The little boy was curious and asked, "Why do you have that palm branch, dad?" "You see, when Jesus came into town, everyone waved Palm Branches to honor ...read more

    God's Friends

     | 3,256 views

    We can grow as friends of God by applying life lessons from three of God’s friends: David, Mary, and Peter. Appropriate for Pentecost, Confirmation, or honoring a pastor, deacon, teacher, or other faithful servant of God.

    “God’s Friends” Acts 2:1-21 The title for today’s sermon comes from a confirmation text book used in my church.(1) In fact, the scripture lessons I selected for today are actually the texts traditionally read in Christian churches around the world on Pentecost Sunday – the day on which ...read more

    A responsible earthly father exhibits the characteristics and traits of fatherhood as set forth in the Word of the Heavenly Father.

    Text: “Honor your father and mother, that your days may be long in the land which the LORD your God gives” (Exodus 20:12). There are only two people I know about who did not have an earthly father and mother. Those people were Adam and Eve. Each one of us was brought into this world through the ...read more

    How should the Lord build our house? 1- We must allow the Lord to build the house of our work 2- We must allow the Lord to build the house of our offspring

    INTRO.- ILL.- Some house builders drove into their local lumber yard. One of the men walked into the office and said, "We need some four-by-twos." The clerk asked, "You mean two-by-fours, don't you?" The man said, "I'll go check," and went back to the truck. He returned and said, "Yeah, I meant ...read more

    based on 11 ratings
     | 13,475 views

    Christianity begins and ends with relationship. It’s not so much about finding a true friend as it is being a true friend. Paul gives us clues that will help us become a true friend to those around us.

    Marks of a True Friend Ephesians 6:19-24 Intro: This is the final message from our series in the book of Ephesians. We’ve uncovered some gems along the way. In chapter 1, we learned about the blessings of being in Christ and how God’s life can be expressed through our lives. In ch. 2, we talked ...read more

    Choosing may be the greatest power and privilege that we have as humans. The power of choice separates us from the angels and animals. We are faced with multiplied thousands of choices during the course of our life. We are faced with easy choices, silly

    Pt. 3 – I Choose To Share I. Introduction We have been talking about the choices that we are faced with in life. Thousands if not millions of decisions must be thought through and made during a lifetime. Some choices are important . . . while some are trivial. For instance have you ever ...read more

    If you want to overcome the obstacles in your life, concentrate on the Lord; consecrate yourself to Him; count on His Word; and then, just cross the water.

    A few years ago, drivers on the eastern highways in India encountered an especially stubborn elephant that refused to let them pass until they offered up a little food. He's even been known to stick his trunk through an open window and sniff around for any hidden treasure! One local resident ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 33,724 views

    Sometimes as believers we neither know what to pray or how to pray. In this study of Paul’s prayer to the Ephesians we learn both.

    Live Out Loud – Our PRAYER May 12, 2007 Ephesians 4:14-21 Funny: I can only begin to imagine the strange requests that God hears. I recently heard about a lady who had a parrot that she taught to be spiritual and so the parrot would always say, “Awwk! Let us pray. Let’s pray.” She met a ...read more

    INTRO.- ILL.- Preacher Dwight L. Moody loved to study the Bible topically, and it occurred to him one day that he had never studied the subject of grace. Setting aside a day, Moody gave himself to the study of God’s grace. But a second day was required. Even on the third day Moody had not ...read more

    Friends In High Places Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on May 18, 2014
    based on 15 ratings
     | 37,523 views

    What impressed Jesus in this story was the faith of the men who'd brought their friend to him - a friend who was crippled and lived in a low place of life. The phrase is "Jesus saw their faith." What does that mean? And what can it mean to us?

    A few years back, Garth Brooks came out with a popular Country and Western song called: “I’ve Got Friends In Low Places” How many of you have ever heard the song? (when most of them raised their hands, I stage whispered: “Pagans”) It has a catchy tune, but it is NOT a ...read more

    Living In The Light Text: I John 1: 6 & 7; I Pet.2: 9 & 10 Intro: In perhaps an elementary, yet practical sense, to walk in the light is to walk where one’s path is illuminated.

     | 18,271 views

    The Bible teaches us that the things we are passionate about will be the things we act upon. Evangelical Passion is the sign of a true believer, because he or she is busy telling everybody they meet about their faith.

    “EVANGELICAL PASSION” TEXT: Luke 14:15-24;Luke 15:1-32;Acts 8:26-35 INTRO: Today we will continue to look at the attributes of an Authentic Christian.
