    Is our religion just that, or do we each have a relationship with our God?

    To be born again means trusting God enough to leave the safety of our old life

    “Very truly, I tell you, no-one can see the kingdom of God without being born from above.” Jesus always chose the words he used very carefully. To appreciate that this is true you only have to think about the stories he told to illustrate the message he was trying to get across. Think about the ...read more

    Nicodemus met Jesus at night and his life was changed forever. Our life will be changed too when we come face to face with Jesus.

    Nic at Night John 3:1-21 Intro: Jesus had performed the miracle at Cana and his disciples believed in him. He followed this sign with others as he goes to Jerusalem for the passover.

    New Birth Pt 1 Series

    Contributed by Carl Greene on Sep 11, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,960 views

    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

    We’ve all heard and used the phrase "Born Again" but just exactly what does that mean?

    Born Again Born Again! What a neat, overused, misused, abused, redundant, nonmeaningful term. If you google “Born Again Celebrities” you get a wide range of folks.

    This sermon looks at Nicodemus’ ignorance as a religious leader as a springboard for teaching the necessity of the new birth.

    Introduction: One of my favourite stories is of a new pastor was asked to teach a boys class in the absence of their regular Sunday School teacher. He decided at the outset to see what the boys knew and so he asked little Johnny during Bible class who broke down the walls of Jericho. Little Johnny ...read more

    Jesus tells Nicodemus of the new birth.

    If you’ve ever taught a class, there is one kind of student that can absolutely drive you crazy. And it seems like there’s one in every crowd. That’s the person who has an answer for everything. I got a kick out of a couple of the kids during the youth rally who were like that. In the very ...read more

    LISTEN TO LOVE Less talk, more communication "For the measure you measure with will be measured back to you" (Luke 6:38) 1. How hard is it to find someone who will really listen to you? • Those of us who have identified with Jesus the Christ, have been taught a very special kind of love, which ...read more
