    Funeral based on forgiveness for a fractured family

    Today I want to tell you a story from the Bible. It is the story of two brothers, twins in fact. One was named Esau. The other was named Jacob.

    Why do so many seem to miss the hour of visitation? Why do we fail to receive the good things God has for us?

    30, January 2004 Dakota Community Church Missing the Boat Introduction: When we take communion I always point this out. Jesus came to the people who were waiting for Him and yet they missed Him. In spite of all the attention grabbing signs, in spite of healings, in spite of miracles, in spite of ...read more

    based on 38 ratings
     | 11,690 views

    Could it be that we are living just like the people in Jesus day, could it be that we are so familiar with Jesus that we dismiss his authority and perpetuate the dominance of evil in our lives?

    Billy lived in the middle of nowhere Oklahoma. She was born in a sod shack to pioneer parents, had less than a high school education and spent her entire life in the local area, she hated to travel – yet at least twice every year, a team from Gourmet magazine and Bon Appetit magazine would arrive ...read more

     | 9,582 views

    The first Christmas was Mary’s Christmas but today it is simply Merry Christmas.

    "MARY’S Christmas" Introduction: The first Christmas was not a commercial. It was about a coming, God coming down to be with us. God through His Son came to seek and to save that which was lost. There is nothing Merry about being lost. Mary’s Christmas was about a Saviour born to die for our sins. ...read more

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Aug 3, 2021
     | 2,731 views

    The most troublesome sins and most difficult to handle are the little sins in life.

    1. I have very little problems with the so-called big sins. a. The terms little and big are man’s classification and not God’s. b. Sin is sin with God, not big and little. c. Big sins; murder, adultery, lying, stealing. 2. For most of us, we do battle with the little sins every day. a. Pride, ...read more

  • More Than Hatch, Match, And Dispatch Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 20, 2003
    based on 64 ratings
     | 7,860 views

    People expect only the ceremonial from the church. But God wants to give us a rich, varied, and outward-reaching life.

    Last week you seemed to get a big charge out of my little story about going to a wedding rehearsal and wasting time waiting for a key person to arrive. When I said that I didn’t know what we’d do on Sunday afternoon if he didn’t show up, you let out a belly laugh. You assumed I was talking about ...read more

    based on 26 ratings
     | 5,633 views

    What is peace, how do we get it, and what are the consequences if we do not obtain authentic peace?

    Peace. All I want is an hour of peace! If I could just shut out the noise, pull the plug on the telephone, and send everybody packing for a couple of days, I’d be all right. Have you ever said that? Have you ever felt as though you were on the very edge of falling into an abyss? You were in ...read more

  • You Missed The Point

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 23, 2003
    based on 10 ratings
     | 7,621 views

    Why do we scold fathers on Father’s Day, when it is often that their children simply miss hearing their counsel. The sons of Josiah ignored their grounding in God’s word and the support of the Temple and misunderstood the value of hard work.

    The difference between Mother’s Day and Father’s Day is that we honor our mothers but we scold our fathers. We talk of saintly moms, who wore their fingers to the bone to cook and clean and sow for us. We honor them for their industry, their mother wit, and their prayer life. And that is as it ...read more

  • Diagnosing Illness Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 11, 2001
    based on 67 ratings
     | 7,691 views

    Jesus diagnoses our illnesses as primarily spiritual and/or connective; the fatal illness He diagnoses is the one which cannot see God at work.

    We all know people for whom illness is a way of life. It is not just incidental, it is every day. Every day is spent dealing with sickness or pain. Every day is invested in physicians, treatments, medications, therapies. People who struggle just to stay alive, or to manage pain. Their lives ...read more

    based on 11 ratings
     | 6,051 views

    The church is for far more than empty ceremony on occasions demanded by tradition; it is the steward of new life, with a rich and full experience that employs the diversity of gifts God has given it.

    Last week you seemed to get a big charge out of my little story about going to a wedding rehearsal and wasting time waiting for a key person to arrive. When I said that I didn’t know what we’d do on Sunday afternoon if he didn’t show up, you let out a belly laugh. You assumed I was talking about ...read more

  • Do I Really Have A Choice?

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Dec 4, 2000
    based on 61 ratings
     | 8,725 views

    When we are offered great choices, although we think we have no real freedom, we can choose to live emotionally, we can choose to give and affirm life for the most vulnerable in our society, and we can always choose to receive God’s gift of eternal life.

    “Do I really have a choice?” That question was posed the other day by one of our teenagers. She was talking about whether she had to go to school. She felt cornered. She felt boxed in. She was speaking for a great many of us. We feel as though we really do not have any choice about many ...read more

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 13, 2004
    based on 58 ratings
     | 5,695 views

    A quiet, introverted people can still bear witness if they will first determine to be obedient, and then will affirm who they are, where they are, as an opportunity for witness.

    One of the defining moments of my life the day I was the first to arrive for class. I sat for a couple of moments alone in a corner of the classroom, waiting for others to show up. A young woman came in the door, looked around, and then said to someone behind her in the hall, “There’s nobody ...read more

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 22, 2003
    based on 60 ratings
     | 13,402 views

    In an attempt to give meaning to our lives, we "thrash" -- do something impulsive that has to be acknowledged as sin and has inescapable consequences. But as we confess our sin God "threshes" us, dividing the positive from the negative, so that we recove

    The longer we live, the more we have to be thankful for. Isn’t that true? The longer we live, the more blessings we receive, and therefore the more we have to be thankful for. If you are thirty years old, you can count your blessings, name them one by one. If you are sixty years old, you can ...read more
