    A sermon on death, friendship, and friendship with God

    The Smell Will Be Awful!

    Contributed by Keith Broyles on Oct 7, 2014

    When we have faith we aren’t afraid of what is on the other side. Sure, some might say, “the smell will be awful.” But what we know has nothing to do with a smell. We know, what waits on the other side of the stone is the power of Almighty God.

    Our sense of smell can be one of the most powerful of all our senses. The sense of smell can the most powerful of all our senses. It can generate good feelings like chocolate chip cookies or fresh bread baking. When we were living in Tyler I loved to walk in the mall at Christmas time. There was a ...read more

     | 12,031 views

    Why do we doubt God’s ability to answer our prayers? Is there more to our prayers than we know? Is there more to us than we know? Do we know that God is already working his will through us? Are we grateful, possibly not?

    We are called to be a balanced Church. We must achieve a balance between service and worship. The story of Martha and Mary focuses on finding that balance.

    Martha, Martha, You're Not So Bad

    Often overshadowed by her sister Mary, Martha is often marginalized as an undesirable example of for disciples. However, when examined through the lens of scripture and not popular Christian books, Martha shines through as an example for all godly women.

    When I survey the women of the New Testament, I find some remarkable women of faith, Mary the mother of Jesus (Luke 1:26-38) is the first to come to mind. But, there are others, such as Joanna, Susanna and Mary Magalene (Luke 8:1-3). Later on, I read about Priscilla who, along with her husband, ...read more

    Mary & Martha said that Lazarus was the one whom Jesus loved. But how could Jesus treat a friend like He did? Why would He callously stay away while this close friend died... and He could have prevented it?

    Jesus makes big promises, and we struggle to believe in the midst of our troubles and setbacks of life. Jesus gives us the strength to believe, and fills us with the hope of seeing God's glory someday.

    How quick are you to believe big promises? I think there’s a certain part of all of us that’s a little hesitant, a little skeptical, to believe every promise that we hear. Have you ever believed a promise, only to have that promise broken? “I promise you that we will give you ...read more

    Christ prepares His disciples for his death and resurection in concert with the story of Lazurus.

    The sermon today is from John 11, the first 45 verses. If you really want, I will read it, but I think it best if I paraphrase it a little. Jesus is with his disciples a couple of weeks, maybe a month before Passover when he gets word from his friends Mary and Martha that their brother Lazurus ...read more
