    How can avoid being in debt? And is it all up to me, or is God involved in helping me accomplish that? And what is the significance of the debts all being forgiven at the Feast of Tabernacles?

    OPEN: Little Tommy told his mother he had decided what he wanted when he grew up. “Well, honey,” she responded “what’s that?” He said, “I’d like to have a million dollars, a big house, and no bathtubs.” “No bathtubs?” asked his mother. “Why not?” “Because,” he said,” when I grow up I want to be ...read more

    based on 94 ratings
     | 24,588 views

    The "holy kiss" was a common way to show love and acceptance in the early church. What was that "kiss" intended to accomplish for God and how can we (who often don’t do that) accomplish the same goals?

    OPEN: For the next 4 weeks, we’re going to be looking at what the Bible says about kissing (pause). You know, the Bible is just FULL of kissing. There are stories where sons kiss their fathers. Friends kissing friends/ brothers kissing brothers. People kissing false idols. Kissing between a woman ...read more

    The Kisses You Do Not Want Series

    based on 114 ratings
     | 36,663 views

    Even back in Bible times (where they did a lot of kissing) there were certain kisses you didn’t want. And the worst kisses were those of enemies and betrayers. How did God say we should deal with people who attempt to deceive as those would?

    (A Poem) Oh, innocent victims of Cupid, Remember this terse little verse To let a fool kiss you is stupid But to let a kiss fool you is worse. (Readers Digest 2/77 p.103) As I noted a couple of weeks ago, the Bible is just filled with kissing. They did a whole lot more kissing back then than we ...read more

    based on 228 ratings
     | 63,690 views

    When would the kiss of a prostitute EVER be acceptable? When it honored the man who forgave her sins.

    Alan Calhoun of Bristol, Connecticut told of a tag sale (garage sale) he and wife had several years ago. They had decided to put out a mirror they’d received as a wedding gift. The reason they were selling it was that it had a gaudy aqua-colored metal frame and they just couldn’t find a room in ...read more

    based on 110 ratings
     | 45,910 views

    Why did John baptize Jesus? And why so quickly? Granted Jesus said it was to "fulfill all righteousness", but what exactly could that mean?

    OPEN: A little girl wanted to get baptized but her mother wanted her to attend some classes to make sure she knew what she was committing herself to. After one of the classes, her mother asked, "Honey, what does baptism mean?" Thinking hard, the little girl the finally said, "Well, it isn’t the ...read more

    based on 105 ratings
     | 30,760 views

    It’s become fashionable for churches to "target" a specific audience in their messages and ministry. But is that really such a good idea? Is it possible that in targeting specific groups we might be undermining our real ministry?

    OPEN: In my files I ran across these nuggets of wisdom from little children: Patrick, age 10 - "Never trust a dog to watch your food." Hannah, age 9 - "When your dad is mad and asks you, ’Do I look stupid?’ don’t answer." Taylia, age 11 - "When your mom is mad at your dad, don’t let her brush ...read more

    The Wonder Of Jesus’ Crucifixion Series

    based on 110 ratings
     | 111,791 views

    Jesus shed His blood several times during the last 24 hours of His life. And there is a powerful story to be found in blood and water that came from Jesus’ side. Do you know what that story is? And do you know what it can mean to your life?

    In Oklahoma, someone saw this poster promoting a Red Cross blood drive: "I gave my blood. Christ gave his. I give a pint. He gave all. The needle is small, sharp. The nails were large, dull. The table soft, restful. The cross rough, painful. The nurses ...read more

    Let’s Go Fishing Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Apr 7, 2013
    based on 137 ratings
     | 61,054 views

    The best fishermen often have expensive rods and reels and lures. But these are only tools. If those tools don’t help them catch fish, they’re worthless. What tools do we use to "catch" souls for Jesus and how does Jesus turn us into "fishers of men"?

    A couple of guys named Ed and Fred had gone fishing for the very first time in their lives. They went out and bought themselves a couple of rods and reels, went down to the lake and rented a boat at the boat rental place and rowed out to a likely place and let down their anchor. They’d read ...read more

    based on 78 ratings
     | 17,681 views

    Loving On Jesus Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 14, 2011
    based on 106 ratings
     | 35,713 views

    The old Gospel hymn says "Oh, how I love Jesus", but in John 14 Jesus implies that not everyone who says they love Him actually do. Just because I go to church regularly doesn’t mean I really love Him, so how can I know I really love Jesus like I say I do

    OPEN: I love to sing, and one of my favorite Hymns is “Oh How I love Jesus”. Sing it with me now if you would: 1. There is a name I love to hear, I love to sing its worth; It sounds like music in my ear, the sweetest name on earth. CHORUS: O, how I love Jesus, O, how I love Jesus, O, how I love ...read more

     | 35,893 views

    In the midst of the storms of our lives, Jesus says there is something we must NOT do: worry. But I have a problem with that. I worry a lot. So, why shouldn’t I be anxious and worried when life throws so much at me?

    OPEN: The old sea captain was quizzing a new crew member to see how he’d do at sea. “What steps would you take if a sudden storm came up on the starboard?” he asked the young man. “Well, sir,” said the crew member, I’d throw out an anchor, sir.” “What would you do if another storm sprang up ...read more
