    Come And See Series

    Jesus calls us to "come and see" what he has to offer the world.

    Sermon on John 1:35 - 51 Come and See There is nothing that beats first hand experience. It is harder to believe what someone tells us if we cannot experience it for ourselves. Surely this is the very reason John the Baptist pointed out the "Lamb of God", and why in v39 Jesus says, "Come and ...read more

    Lenten study of Peter’s struggle with guilt & shame

    He’s one of the most popular bible characters. Simon Peter. People are attracted to him, perhaps because he seems one of the most real; we can identify with him. He’s almost lovable because of his very transparent humanness. As you follow the account of Jesus’ life and watch Peter move with ...read more

     | 6,777 views

    The need for forgiveness is universal because sin is universal.

    Last week, we kicked off the new year and the new millennium by considering the topic of "Making a Fresh Start." We looked at what the Bible has to say about making life changes, and we especially focused on our need for God’s help in making changes that are lasting and significant. This morning, ...read more

    We should look like Jesus - or atleast his brother. When the world looks at you, who do they think of?

    Who do you look like? John 20:19-31 I have heard it said that every body has a twin in this world. I remember hearing that in high school. I had never though of it much until someone pointed out somebody that thought could be my twin. Our high school has 1200 students and I was not exactly a ...read more

     | 16,796 views

    BECAUSE OUR GOD IS GREAT, WE SHOULD REJOICE IN GOD’S WORD, WE SHOULD REMEMBER GOD’S POWER, WE SHOULD RECOGNIZE GOD’S JUDGEMENT, WE SHOULD REFLECT ON GOD’S WISDOM, WE SHOULD REQUEST GOD’S HELP, AND WE SHOULD RELY ON GOD’S PLAN.

    OUR GOD IS GREAT Psalms 33:18-22 Psalms 33 seems to have been written in time of a national crisis. These Scriptures shows us in the midst of the crisis that God is still in control .

    The Difference

    Contributed by W Pittendreigh on Feb 22, 2005
    based on 17 ratings
     | 4,742 views

    Peter and Judas are very much alike! Both are apostles. Both rise up the ladder of success -- Peter the spokesman of apostles and Judas the treasurer. And both deny and betray Christ. The difference is -- to whom to they turn in their darkest moments?

    The Sacrament of the Lord’s Supper is full of meaning. It is a spiritual food that nourishes our souls. It is a part of worship Christ commands of us. It is an experiencing of the presence of Christ in a real and tangible way. It is something we do as a community – we never ...read more

     | 12,070 views

    Because God loved us, we love others. To reach seekers, this is the good news of this sermon, presented as simply and plainly (but *truth*fully!) as I am able for the unchurched.

    Every Methodist pastor of the last 250 years has answered the same set of 17 questions – questions that John Wesley himself asked of all his ministers. They range from the most basic and fundamental issues of Christianity: “Have you faith in Christ” to the complicated: “Have you studied the ...read more

     | 8,471 views

    We are called to go about the business given to us by God and while we may be challenged by the parable of the sheep and goats we should not be fearful, having faith that as we love our Lord, he even more deeply loves us.

    Going about God’s Business "When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory. {32}All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats, {33}and he ...read more

    When the Son comes out, we discover peace, resurrection power and a commission to move beyond our church walls.

    Years ago, my two sons attended a spiritual gifts retreat for children. On the way home from the campgrounds, the boys’ mother wanted to know what they had discovered. She asked our younger son, “What’s your spiritual gift, Sam?” Sam stuck out his chest and proudly announced, “Mom, my spiritual ...read more

    If I were to take this tape measure this morning and measure this pulpit . . . and I were to say that it was ___ inches wide would you believe me? Why? What gives this Power Pro Craft Serial # TM1210N the ability to be right or even accurate?
