  • The Love Of Jesus On Display

    The American Church has a bad image problem with the new generation, which is leaving in droves. Here are suggestions for fixing that image -- we need to become known for WHAT WE'RE FOR instead of being known for WHAT WE'RE AGAINST. We must be known as people of love & compassion.

Gary Dearing told a story about his Air Force Colonel, who served as inspector general of his command, and paid particular attention to how personnel wore their uniforms. 2. “On one occasion the Colonel spotted a junior airman ...read more

     | 12,286 views

    Sometimes we may get disillusioned with church, but we all need a divine teacher; can you think of a better than Jesus? He understands us, knows all our faults; yet He loves us more than any other. And He alone can give eternal life.

     | 21,131 views

    It is not until we see God, that we actually see ourselves (like Isaiah)! Have you tired of the externals yet? Are you ready to be exposed to the raw deity of the God-Man? Thank God, the Bible's full of people who weren't satisfied with the superficial. Are you?

     | 11,416 views

    Jesus said, "You have a saying, ‘It’s still four months until harvest’? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest!" We are in a race against time to gather the harvest before it spoils or is destroyed. 3 Aspects of it.

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 25, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,690 views

    Life is a lot like “bumper cars.” Do you want to bump those who bump you? That may be a fun strategy for bumper cars, but it’s a terrible strategy for life. Jesus shows us a better way!

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 11, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,314 views

    We have the ability to take Jesus places. He is dependent on us to get around. He lives inside of us. Are we taking him sinful places? Are we hiding Him? Or are we going where He would naturally go?

There were three Native American tribes -- a Navajo, a Hopi, and an Apache -- who were speaking about how powerful their prayers were. 2.

    The troubling of the waters of Bethesda signaled the descent of the angel. We all have our "story" of why we can't get healed; Jesus doesn't need it. Jesus didn't wait for the angel to heal, because He's ALWAYS READY TO HEAL! Call on Him!

  • Do We Have Pigeon Religion?

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 3, 2022
     | 3,006 views

    The Bible does NOT say, "the Spirit came on Jesus as a pigeon." Doves have 8 character differences from pigeons. Just as the dove is the symbol of the Holy Spirit, so "pigeon religion" is a counterfeit of the Holy Spirit. Let's seek the Dove!

    DO WE HAVE PIGEON RELIGION? John 1:29-33 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A doctor went out and bought a brand new Ferrari GTO, that can top out at 250 mph.

    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,306 views

    Divine life only flows in those people who are in intimate fellowship with Jesus Christ. We must spend quality time at Jesus' feet hearing His word. Like the moon has no light of its own, nor do we, but we can shine bright with the light of the Sun of Righteousness!

    THE VINE AND THE BRANCHES John 15:1-8 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A man was speeding down a Texas highway, feeling secure in a column of cars all traveling at the same speed.

  • How To Be A Successful Nobody

    Contributed by John Gaston on May 5, 2021
     | 4,506 views

    This is a rewrite of Glenn Pease's fine message. It talks about many of the un-named people in the Bible who played such big roles in the events of the New Testament. We think of ourselves as nobodys, but that's not what Heaven thinks! You have a lot to give.

    HOW TO BE A SUCCESSFUL NOBODY John 6:1-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: WHY LIFE IS CONFUSING TO MANY 1. A librarian commented concerning a woman just leaving her desk that she could get more out of a mystery novel than anyone she knew. "How is that?" asked her co-worker. 2. She replied, ...read more
