    Being accused of acting like a child is a major insult but not from Jesus. Jesus wants more people that act like children.

    -In our culture, saying that someone is acting like a child is not really a compliment -We are always telling our children to grow up, to act their age -In the immortal words of that great philosopher, the artist formerly known as Prince, “Act your age not your shoe size.” {PAUSE} -There’s a new ...read more

    Throughout the Bible, God offers person after person a second chance. He’s offering you a second chance. Use it faithfully.

    As people came into the sanctuary they were asked to take a stone from pails of stones. Immediately following the sermon, they were invited to come forward to place the stone representing their sin at the foot of the cross.

    This sermon explains why Jesus says we all must be "born again". It also goes into an explanation of what is a sacrament and why we baptize. This sermon is based upon John Wesley’s sermon #45 by the same name preached in 1760.

    First, a little humor: A preacher once heard about another preacher who gained notoriety by preaching the world’s longest sermon. He felt led to preach some kind of notable sermon, too, and get in the record books. But he didn’t want to bore people with a long sermon. So he decided he would ...read more
