    (Slide 1)30 years ago this month, I had my first car wreck. With my mom’s car.

    Part 4 of a 6 part series on the 12 Steps as a Spiritual Discipline

    It was either the spring of 1968 or 1969 because at the time my mom was teaching kindergarten at a church about a half-mile from our home for two years before it went into our public school system in 1970. But it was spring because it was also baseball season. Now normally we would play either in ...read more

    (Slide 1) Last week was the Super Bowl and those who love the color of black and gold are rejoicing because their beloved Steelers are the champions!

    (1)In the book, Living Your Strengths, we read, ‘One of the most common mistakes people make in their spiritual lives is to focus on the steps to spiritual growth rather than on the outcomes of spiritual growth.’ (2)Then in his book Ancient-Future Time, Robert Webber wrote, ‘As far back as I can ...read more

  • Four Keys To Being Rewarded By Christ

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 1, 2006
    based on 30 ratings
     | 2,940 views

    This message concentrates on the fact that not everyone receives rewards from Christ and four of the things we need to be doing to make sure that we do.

    BIG POINT: “Not everyone is rewarded by Christ.” - vv. 24a, 27b. - v. 24a makes it clear that being in the race does not mean you win a prize (although I think the analogy breaks down at the idea that only one person could win a prize). - v. 27b is talking about being disqualified for a prize, ...read more

  • Would I Lie To You? (Abraham On Honesty And Lying)

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 3, 2006
    based on 48 ratings
     | 9,456 views

    This passage uses Abraham’s deception as a chance to look at why we fudge the truth so often and what the consequences of our lies are.

    - Lies are a common part of our everyday lives. In fact, some of us believe that we can’t function in society without telling our share of “little white lies.” - Abraham here demonstrates aptly for us both the reasons we lie and the consequences of our untruths. WHY WE LIE: 1. We get stuck in ...read more

    A look at the blessings of generosity and receiving God’s grace.

    2 Corinthians 8:1-9 – How to Get Rich This sermon may seem a bit out of sequence – a few weeks ago we looked at chapter 9, which was centered on giving money. And back then I told you that I realized that the #1 reason why folks say they don’t come to church is because the pastor talks about ...read more

  • Why We Have Fathers

    Contributed by Jim Kane on Jul 4, 2004
    based on 14 ratings
     | 3,122 views

    We have fathers because God made it so “in the beginning.”

    I intended last week to launch our summer sermon series, “God, I have a question,” but the Holy Spirit so moved us through Pat’s moving testimony and singing that there was nothing more that could have been said after those moments of heart felt honesty and thankfulness to God for both His ...read more

    The Fourth of July is upon us again and we it is a time of picnics, fireworks, and celebration!

    based on 13 ratings
     | 2,102 views

    We please God as we allow God to make us “new creatures in Christ.”

    A few weeks ago I said, “We are always learning – formally and informally. We never stop learning something each and every day of our lives.” A key part of learning is thinking. One of the things that we do when we think is to create opinions about people, places, events, and even ourselves. We ...read more

    Have you ever tasted or smelled chlorine? It’s that wonderful smell we smell when we get near a swimming pool. It is designed to keep bacteria from growing in the pool and making us sick. Those with pools know how important it is to get the right balance in the water between too much chlorine and ...read more

    We please God when we do our part in fulfilling the Great Commission.

    This morning I begin with what might be to some of us a loaded question that I am asking for you to verbally respond to: When you hear the words missionary or missions what do you think of?

    We please God as we live in peace and harmony with each other.

    This morning I again begin with a question that I would like three volunteers to answer, “What has been the most peaceful and relaxing vacation or day away from home that you have ever had and why?” I wasn’t sure what we were going to hear this morning but I was fairly sure that “peace and ...read more

  • Why There Are Tears In Heaven

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Nov 22, 2004
    based on 34 ratings
     | 14,358 views

    This sermon looks at the popular (but biblically inaccurate) idea that there are no tears in heaven right now.

    Often at funerals you will hear the pastor say: “There are no tears in heaven.” - This is one of those statements we make without any biblical justification because we are not careful with biblical promises. - This takes a biblical promise out of its historical context and applies it ...read more
