    The Messiah many are looking for is quite different than the Messiah who came to us in Jesus.

    The Disappointing Messiah John 12:12-19 Jack was raised in the church. He frequented Sunday school and worship services each Sunday with his family. He had learned all of the famous stories of the heroes of the Bible. He had heard of the times that God had intervened in the lives of His committed ...read more

    A Touch Of Love

     | 17,910 views

    This sermon is about how we need to tell our loved ones what they mean to us while they are still with us.

    A TOUCH OF LOVE Text: John 12:1-8 One of the songs of my list of favorites would have to be James Taylor’s "Shower The People". One of the reasons that I love that song apart from its pretty melody is its message. It talks about showering the people that we love with flowers. Later, in the ...read more

    An Extravagant Gesture

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Aug 10, 2001
    based on 81 ratings
     | 10,000 views

    Extravagant gestures are an appropriate - even necessary - expression of love.

    Do you know how much it cost? $15,000, that’s how much. And that’s just for the perfume! The bottle she broke was worth nearly that much on its own. I can’t see why Jesus was so upset with us for complaining about the waste. I mean, I saw his point later on, but how could we have known then? ...read more

     | 5,451 views

    Healing our spiritual blindess is learning what can cause it.

    The blind man Christ couldn’t heal Of all my senses I imagine my sight would be the worst to lose. Much of our learning comes from the positive example of others. However there are many more examples of what we shouldn’t do that we can learn from as well. I wan’t to talk about the situation of ...read more

    It is crucial that we recognize and accept Jesus as God’s Lamb, our Eternal Spiritual Messiah, and not just our Temporal Helper.

     | 17,139 views

    Through Mary’s gift, we see an example of what Jesus wants, and does not want from you and me, not just at Christmas, but every day of the year.

    I think it’s safe to say that by and large, men need a lot of help in finding that perfect holiday gift. It just isn’t a talent that many men have. Sometimes the hints have to be especially large. Well this morning, I’d like to help all of the men present to discover what will be the perfect gift ...read more
