  • Invisible Man

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 27, 2009
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,416 views

    As Ralph Ellison helped us see racism as one group treating another as invisible, so today we need to discern who is invisible to us; and we need to see how Jesus is invisible to many until He is connected to the culture and until we make Him visible.

    "I am an invisible man." Those words, pecked out on an old typewriter one night in the Vermont hills, began a literary work of unparalleled beauty and power. Ralph Waldo Ellison; encouraged to make music and to write by his father; inspired by the civil rights activism of his mother, began to ...read more

    The People’s Response to the Palm Sunday entry of Jesus by shouting praises, waving palm branches and laying their cloaks on the ground and what each of these means to us.

    This Sunday is called Palm Sunday! Do we really understand why we wave palm branches? Why the Jews laid the palm branches on the ground for Jesus to ride over them on His donkey? What is the significance of all this? Let me try to answer these questions for you this morning. Please turn to Matthew ...read more

    Many people think teams going on mission trips are a waste of time and money, here are reasons they are of great value to individuals and churches.

    Since the Brazil mission team is preparing lunch for us today, I want to deal with an issue that typically comes up when a team is going on an overseas mission trip. I heard this same issue when I was at FBC Florence and from other Pastors in their churches. The issue is spending large amounts of ...read more

    Biblical Insight for Overcoming the Daily Issues of Life

    In Deuteronomy 6:4 Moses proclaimed to the children of Israel: "Hear, O Israel the Lord our God is one Lord." In this context the word "one" implies unity and singleness.In short, Moses declares that God, in his triune personality (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit), is unifiedin one collective ...read more

    You can be free from the guilt of your past actions.

    There is a silence in the room and a lean, bold gentleman stands up and bellows, "All Rise. " The people in the room stand as a strong , stately man dressed in a black robe enters the room and instructs: "Be seated." He reviews some papers in front of him and looks toward you with a pointed stare. ...read more

This is what you have been waiting for all week; you’ve pressed through the cares of the week just to go to church this morning. You lift your hands to the Father and close ...read more

  • Reality Check

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 30, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,460 views

    Adherence to the Bible will teach us neither to be overly optimistic nor overly negative about human nature, but will give us both hope and harmony. Thus we must be serious Bible students.

    Twenty-five years ago, Neil Armstrong stepped out of that lunar module and set foot where no person had ever gone before, on the surface of the moon. "One small step for man, one giant leap for mankind." We were fascinated, and we still are. Nothing like that had ever been done; nothing quite like ...read more

  • In The Hour Of Trial: Open Door

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 1, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,393 views

    The doors of the church: some are locked, but panic hardware always lets us out for mission; some are heavily locked, but it is Christ who is our security; and some are never locked, for we are to be open to embrace those who need us.

    Have you ever seen a place with as many doors as this church building has! A hardware salesman would be in heaven, right here! Doors, doors, everywhere doors. There are doors leading to the outside. Eight of them, I think. There are doors inside, leading into the rooms. Some doors take you into ...read more

    God wants you to overcome your fear and guilt be productive.

    Let’s recall two familiar verses from the Book of Genesis; 1:28 and 3:10. First we will examine Genesis 1:28. Then God blessed them, and God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply; fill the earth and subdue it; have dominion over the fish of the sea, over the birds of the air, and over every ...read more

  • Knowing When To Break The Rules

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 2, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,721 views

    Jesus’ encounter with the Syrophoenician woman admits several interpretations, all of which teach us: give what is needed rather than what is wanted; teach others rather than do for them; watch your motives.

    Just when you think you have your life routines down pat, settled and secure, something comes along and upsets the whole pattern. Just when you think you have your life all organized, something comes up to discombobulate it! Just when you think you know the rules by which you govern your life, ...read more

  • How To Drive Your Mother Crazy

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,584 views

    Know your own self, do what is right whether you like it or not, and go beyond the norm. It will drive your mother crazy and will call from your Father, "Well done".

    Our relationship with our mothers is at once the most wonderful and yet the most difficult of all our relationships. We love them deeply, and we get so upset with them we almost hate them. Few of us are neutral about our mothers; we hold them close and then push them away forcefully. We get ...read more

    Back in my teen years a co-worker at the Red Barn Fish Camp #2 in Tyro, NC introduced me to a club that he said I never wanted to be a member of if I could help it. It’s called the WSC Club. The subject came up because one of our buddies in the kitchen wanted to ask a girl out on a date, but he ...read more

    We live in a revolutionary time. Can we seize it for Christ. God is doing something new and is calling us to join Him in it, as walls and barriers come down.

    If this winter is like most winters, you will wake up one morning, peer out your window, and find the whole scene blanketed in pure white snow. It will seem like a fairyland to you, and for a little while, at least, the whole world will appear to be new. Brand new, clean and fresh, sparkling and ...read more

  • The Inevitable Cleanup Job Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 5, 2009
     | 4,124 views

    Sin is inevitable and needs to be identified as the filth that is in all of us, and it needs to be acknowledged in the Christian community. But God loves us and cares for us and is in the blood of Christ cleaning us.

    No matter how good it is, it has to be cleaned up. Isn’t that always the case? No matter how good anything is, it has to be cleaned up. You get a new suit of clothes, you wear it a few times -- maybe only one time, in this heat -- and before you know it, it has to go off to the dry cleaners. No ...read more

  • Getting Past Self-Indulgence

     | 4,226 views

    Self-indulgence does not mean denying yourself what you actually need, but meeting needs easily turns into obsession. The way out is service to others.

    Whoever first baked Pecan Sandies should be made a saint. I love Pecan Sandies cookies! The taste of crunchy pecans, the texture of shortbread. I don’t care if you are from Georgia and pronounce it pee-kan, I’ll insist that Pecan or pee-kan Sandies are the finest cookie on the market. And so ...read more
