    2008 Palm Sunday Message

    (Slide 1) As I reflected on the dramatic reading this week, I remembered a visual presentation of a familiar story that I saw this past week that reminds us that little things can make a big difference. ‘A philosophy professor stood before his class and had some items in front of him. When class ...read more

    The Father who fills emptiness with joy also calls life out of death — His heart transforms every sorrow into resurrection celebration.

    (John 2 & John 11 — From Cana to Bethany) --- Introduction — A God Who Loves to Celebrate When you open the Gospel of John, you expect thunder. You expect the heavens to split, angels to announce, prophets to proclaim. But the first public act of Jesus isn’t in a temple, or on a mountain, or ...read more

    Perhaps our greatest ministry is to unlock the treasure in others. Preached before a seminary audience.

    If an intruder broke into my house, there are actually a few furniture items that I might help him carry out to his truck, like the bed and dresser in the guest room. I might suggest that he take not one, but two of the hand-me-down chairs I have accumulated. But if he glanced across the room and ...read more

    Jesus says, "I am the resurrection and the life." The message explores what it means to have Jesus as your life, and to live abundantly.

    (Preached Easter Sunday 2006) As the children are going out, I’m reminded of the story of a Sunday School teacher who was extremely enthusiastic. She looked at her class of four-years olds and asked this question: “Does anyone know what today is?” A little girl held up her finger and said, “Yes ...read more

    The general principle stated in this passage is simple, “Be careful how you live your life.” And then we are given three important directives to consider.

    Jesus is the “Transformer”, and through his abundant grace we are transformed from plain old water into the finest of wine.

     | 5,335 views

    Jesus Christ is coming again, that is certain. The midnight call may be heard at any moment. And when that call takes place we will be going home. But sadly very few Christians are thrilled about the imminence of his return. Many don’t want His return.

    MATTHEW 25:1-13 Introduction: Jesus Christ is coming again, that is certain. The midnight call may be heard at any moment. And when that call takes place we will be going home.

     | 4,200 views

    Generally when we are hurt, we have a place of refuge that we flee too. That place of refuge is generally one of four places.

    (1) WE MIGHT FLEE TO A PARENT. For those of us who are blessed to still have our parents around, we may FLEE TO THEM in times of difficulty. Why? Because, when we face the difficulties of life, we want to have someone on our side, and we know that our parents will always be there for ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,284 views

    Do you feel what you are doing for God is unnoticed or unappreciated by others? There were many such people whom God used to fulfill His great purposes. This sermon will encourage you to realize that nothing you do is disregarded by God.

    We read in 1 Corinthians 1:25, “This foolish plan of God is wiser than the wisest of human plans, and God's weakness is stronger than the greatest of human strength.”(NLT) As human beings, the two aspects of life that we seek and pursue after are worldly knowledge and strength.

    The Three R's Of Death

    based on 587 ratings
     | 238,147 views

    This is a funeral service I have used several times, most recently in the situation where I doubted the salvation of the individual, and the family was mixed with believers and unbelivers. It is a way to honor the individual, but still present the gospel

    THE “3 R’S OF DEATH” In school, we used to refer to the importance of learning “The 3 R’s” – and of course we meant “Read’n, writ’n, and rithmatic…” As we gather here today – not to mourn the death of Wayne Thompson, but rather to celebrate his life and all it has meant to those that have ...read more
