    A Communion Meditation for Sunday, September 4, 2005

    One of the most important ways that the Bible can come alive to us is to be able to link events in the New Testament to events in the Old Testament. As we are able to do so (and a good cross-reference Bible helps) we are able to gain a fuller understanding of how Jesus Christ has fulfilled the Old ...read more

    Inaugural sermon for fall 2005 series through the book of Acts

    My colleague in ministry, Arnetta Bailey, writes of the fears that we all have when we enter into a new experience with a new group of people: ‘Can you remember what it was like to start a new job or walk into a new church?’ she writes. ‘Perhaps you scanned the room for a friendly face. Was there ...read more

    The second in a series through the book Acts during Fall 2005

    A woman who worked for a vet was to have knee surgery. She was nervous about the procedure and asked her boss if he had any advice. He replied, rather half-mindedly, ‘Just turn your worries into prayers, get plenty of rest, and don’t lick your incision.” I do not think that the latter piece of ...read more

    Here’s the situation Mary and Martha call on Jesus to come pray (heal) their sick brother Lazarus and Jesus says. “This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby”. Then Jesus delays his coming to

    This is not my typical writing style but I believe the Lord gave me this spiritual meaning to let many of you know that if God has spoken life to you regarding something, then know that it is not over no matter how bad, or impossible the situation looks. Let this devotion minister to you and ...read more

    The beginning of Elisha’s solo ministry provides some insights into the mistakes that many of us make early in our walk with God.

    - vv. 23-25. - This is simply a problem passage. It’s very difficult to explain - it seems so unnecessary and unbecoming to a prophet, especially when you compare Jesus’ statements on forgiveness. - How do we make sense of it? KEY THOUGHT: God works through imperfect people. - The tendency ...read more

    This sermon shares 5 steps toward more fully experiencing the power of God’s Word in your daily life.

    - for too many, the Bible ends up being a coffee table decoration, but not something that is a powerful force in their daily life. - v. 12a - “powerful” - the Word of God is powerful. - I struggled at the beginning in writing this message about the power of the Word because I was looking more ...read more

    This sermon brings for the biblical truth that we shouldn’t be "hanging on" when we’re at the end of our rope - we should be letting go!

    What To Do When You’re At The End Of Your Rope: 1. Recognize you’re a lost cause. - vv. 8-10. - I mean, of course, a lost cause to solve the problem on your own. - we follow our brilliant plans, but end up at the end of our rope. - they probably chose this route because they hoped to gain the ...read more

    Sermon 2 of a New Year’s series based on Wilkinson’s book Experiencing Spiritual Breakthroughs

    Now, I have no doubt that some of you have looked at the title of my sermon printed in the bulletin and wondered, “What in the world are you up to this morning, Pastor Jim?” Well, we are going to hear a word that begins with “s” quite a bit this morning and I thought to myself on Monday when I ...read more

    Sermon 3 of a New Year’s series based on Wilkinson’s book Experiencing Spiritual Breakthroughs.

    One of the things about starting a new sermon series is that I am never sure how it is going to develop regarding content (it must be Biblical of course) and structure (especially as it relates to application). Last week I said to you that I wanted this series to be practical and helpful to you ...read more

    Several years ago, I read a case study in a book whose title I cannot remember so I will summarize from a copy of the case study that I still have in my possession. It was the story of a 16-year-old named Allan. Allan, his mother, and his younger sister, were referred to an adolescent health center ...read more

    One of the ways we get in “shape” for God is as the Spirit transforms us as we discover and utilize our spiritual gifts for our place “on the team.”

    At a recent “Y” league basketball practice one of the boys’ coaches began to ask them questions about the game. “What is offense?” “What is defense?” And he explained what it means to be on defense and what it means to be on offense. Then he assigned positions. To some he assigned the position of ...read more

     | 6,350 views

    We get in shape for God when we let Him use our failures to help others.

    Take a moment and look at the sermon title printed in your bulletin. Do you find it to be a strange title? Do you find it to be a contradiction? Most of us do not like failure and many of us have been taught – consciously or subconsciously – that failure is not acceptable. In fact, we live in a ...read more
