  • Recognizing What Time It Is

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 23, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,572 views

    There is nothing so fulfilling as good timing, nothing so embarassing as bad timing. Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem was wonderful for some, judgment time for others. What time is it for us? (MLK assassination anniversary)

    There is nothing quite so fulfilling as good timing. And nothing quite so embarrassing as bad timing. They say that the secret in being a comedian is good timing. Well, the secret in living is good timing. Quite a few years ago, a young lady in whom I was more than slightly interested had to be ...read more

  • Reform, Revival, Or Renewal

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 24, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,596 views

    (Reformation Sunday). It is good to reform how we do church, using the Bible as our basis; it is good to revive our spiritual energies. But best of all is to renew ourselves for mission.

    My great-uncle, Ed Weber, drove an ancient car. I doubt if you’ve ever heard of its brand name. He drove a Terraplane. Anybody remember the Terraplane? Well, dearie, if you do, then you are much older than I, because my great-uncle’s Terraplane was already ancient when I was a boy. It had been ...read more

  • Signed, Sealed, Delivered, I'm Yours! Series

    Contributed by Joel Smith on Apr 24, 2009
    based on 6 ratings
     | 10,685 views

    Genuine worship informs the mind about God, inundates the heart with the Spirit, and initiates the body into Christ-likeness.

    On April 21st of last years the Associated Press reported: Another round and amen! Beer was on tap and a mechanical bull inspired the sermon as a new church held its inaugural service in a western Ohio bar. The Country Rock Church drew about 100 people to Sunday night’s meeting at the Pub Lounge ...read more

  • Remembering, Reconnecting, And Rejoicing: What God Gives To The Grieving Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 25, 2009
    based on 10 ratings
     | 10,619 views

    Grieving healthily means remembering both positive and negative; it means connecting with others who can love us and whom we can love. In His own time God will give joy.

    One of the laws of life is: To get something, you must give up something. To gain, you must also lose. We call that the tradeoff principle. We operate on the tradeoff principle every day. When you go to the grocery store and fill your basket, they have the audacity to expect you to pay for what ...read more

  • Remembering, Reconnecting, And Rejoicing: Taking Charge Of Our Own Grief Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 26, 2009
     | 5,632 views

    We take charge of reducing our grief when we first trust ourselves, then trust others in redemptive relationships, and ultimately trust God, who raised Christ from the dead.

    Granger Westberg, in his little book, Good Grief, says that when you have something worth grieving about, then go ahead and grieve, but grieve in a healthy way. Westberg agrees that the Bible says, "Do not grieve as those do who have no hope", but that does not mean we do not grieve. When you have ...read more

  • Invisible Man

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 27, 2009
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,418 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

     | 21,713 views

    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

  • Why Mission Trips Are Important

    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,267 views

    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

     | 2,655 views

    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

    It’s Sunday morning and the Praise and Worship Leader is exhorting the worshippers into the manifest presence of the LORD. 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
