    Peter And Cornelius: From Pronouncements To People

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 14, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,365 views

    Prejudice deals only with groups, not with persons. Peter had to get beyond outworn principles, and both he and Cornelius had to learn to give and receive what was needed. All need Christ.

    If you have to choose between principles and people, choose people! Do you agree? If it comes down to deciding whether to adhere to certain principles and thereby injure people; if it comes down to violating your beliefs or violating another person, what will you choose? The principle or the ...read more

    When God turns up at Abraham's Connect Group in Genesis 18:1, all Abraham sees are THREE MEN. Who were these guys? Prophets? Angels? The Trinity in human form?

    Part 2 - Genesis 18:1-15 - ENTERTAINING ANGELS? Jan and Darryl have always been openly generous people. They make you feel as if they are honoured to have you in their home and nothing is too much trouble for them. Which is just as well because they are our connect group leaders.

    The Wonder Of Jesus Accepting Us Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 10, 2013

    It’s become fashionable for churches to "target" a specific audience in their messages and ministry. But is that really such a good idea? Is it possible that in targeting specific groups we might be undermining our real ministry?

    OPEN: In my files I ran across these nuggets of wisdom from little children: Patrick, age 10 - "Never trust a dog to watch your food." Hannah, age 9 - "When your dad is mad and asks you, ’Do I look stupid?’ don’t answer." Taylia, age 11 - "When your mom is mad at your dad, don’t let her brush ...read more

    Jesus, The Same Yesterday, Today And Beyond

    Contributed by Scott Jensen on May 1, 2008
     | 4,772 views

    This is a sermon tailored to a group of soliders, sailors, airmen and marines deployed to Afghanistan. Jesus doesn’t change and we can count on that fact no matter where we are or what we are doing.

    24 Apr 2008 Isaiah 40:1-8 Hebrews 13:1-8, 15-16 Luke 14:1, 7-14 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.

    You may appear as if you have it all together but inside be disabled spiritually. Jesus meets two people and shares with them how to become abled. Which group are you in?

    The Goats Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 11,193 views

    This is the judgment of the goats. Those who remain at the second coming of Christ. The King divides the remaining people into two groups, sheep and goats. The sheep are those who love Christ, the goats are the rest.

    Introduction A. Our passage this morning is the same as last week. The judgment of the sheep and the goats. 1. Last week I covered the first two points in this passage a. The Son of Man is coming to judge (v.31-33). b. The judgment of sheep (v.34-40). B. I pointed out that this is what ...read more

    The End

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,211 views

    We see three responses to Jesus' death: despair, deliberation from a distance, and conversion. Which group do you most identify with? The cross confronts us with a decision.

    Luke 23:44-49 The End Have you ever felt like you’re at a dead end? Like you didn’t really know how to go forward? Maybe you were in a dead-end relationship. Or a dead-end job. Or a dead-end health prognosis. It can be a very hard place to be. Today we’re going to start at the end. But don’t ...read more

    The text I read to you came as the Levites gather for the dedication of the city wall; It was completely rebuilt in 52 days! Happiness and joy can be heard among this Jewish group of believer’s.

    Receiving 20/20 Vision— And Beyond. Nehemiah 12:42b-47TLB When Kathleen’s teacher called her to the front of the class to analyze a sentence, she panicked. As a recent transfer student, she hadn’t learned that aspect of grammar. The class laughed at her. Instantly the teacher sprang to her ...read more

     | 13,483 views

    Acts 12:1-17 has the story how Peter was condemned to death, but an angel saw to it that he was made free! Peter then found a group of believers, explained the situation, and then left the area.

    The Relationship Of Believers To The World Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Aug 27, 2024
     | 756 views

    It’s a basic need that we need to belong. To be loved as one of the group. To be loved by the world as its own. It hurts to be made fun of or rejected - at any age. Even if you are retired.

    READ SCRIPTURE As a child and a teenager, I wanted to be accepted. To belong to the circle of friends that lived on my street. I wanted them to like me and to let me be part of the things they did. To be asked to play with them. To be part of the baseball games. To be invited to the birthday ...read more

    You Did It For Me

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Mar 24, 2023
     | 3,121 views

    It is the “final story in Jesus’ public teaching ministry” and only Matthew shares it with us. There are two groups in this passage: those who go into eternal life; those who go into eternal death.

    You Did It For Me Matthew 25:31-46 Introduction We have been studying some of the judgment parables found toward the end of Matthew. The judgment parables offer surprises / great reversals. The last shall be first. Many are invited, Few are chosen. Keep watch, for we do not know the hour. ...read more

    The Influence Of A Godly Leader Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jul 2, 2024
     | 1,221 views

    We need godly leaders who will follow the Lord’s direction and engage in the Kingdom work. Successful leaders must be able to influence others to join them in the task God has given – effectively casting a vision that others will embrace and follow.

    The Influence of a Godly Leader Nehemiah 2: 9-20 Can you imagine the excitement and anticipation that Nehemiah must’ve felt at this point in life? God had placed a great burden on his heart for the needs in Jerusalem. There was great devastation, a tremendous task to undertake. He was in a ...read more

    One of the great needs of the Church today is the need for real disciples of Christ. George Barna, Christian pollster and founder of the Barna Research Group after conducting many surveys to get the pulse of the Church in America and has found that the Ch

    The Marks of A Disciple (Matthew 28:16-20) Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 ...read more

    Grounded In Christ Series

    Some miss the gate. Some lose their way, by false teaching, counterfeit spirituality, or not putting beliefs into practice. Some are grounded in Christ, and stand firm in the storms of life!

    Healthy Disciples: GROUNDED IN CHRIST—Matthew 7:13-27 Read Matthew 7:13-14. This is troubling. We know that many people in the world are not interested in eternal life with Christ as Lord and King, and that troubles us. Jesus implies, however, that many who claim to be Christians might not be ...read more
