    Struggling To Know Who We Are Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 14, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,028 views

    Like Hosea's children, we name our selves by our sad history, by our isolation, and by our alienation. But in Christ our Brother all these defects are remedied.

    A good many of us, I would guess, are less than happy with our names. What Mom and Dad decided to call us before we had a voice in the matter. Well, I suspect a good many of us would like to change. Some of us just refuse to use our real names. We go by Butch or Bud or Sissie or some such ...read more

    Fading Light

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 14, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,071 views

    The light we have in Christ is a fading light; we are not assured that history as we know it will remain, and it may be nearing its end. Feel the urgency of following and using that light while we can.

    A foursome on a golf course, in the late afternoon. It's getting late, and the sun is beginning to go down. Harder and harder to see the flags in the distance, more difficult to tell just where the fairway leaves off and the rough begins. They have two choices: either they can decide to call it a ...read more

    Securing The Foundations

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 16, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,028 views

    As the church enters a new era, many things appear to have changed. But the foundation in Christ is secure and is therefore the basis for the future. We must secure our intellectual, spiritual, and relational foundations in order to succeed.

    For a number of years the building had stood in the community, serving our children as their elementary school. It had weathered the coming and going of several generations of children. It had withstood not only the storms that beat on it from the outside, but also the onslaughts of thousands of ...read more

    Committed Christians

    Commitment has become a thing of the past and chrches and Christians are falling by the wayside, this sermon speaks of how the New Testament church was a committed chuch and how we can be that way too.

    COMMITTED CHRISTIANS (ALL my sermons use illustrations found on sermoncentral.com and I use the NIV Bible unless otherwise noted) This morning I would like to share with you from God’s inerrant and infallible Word on the subject of Commitment. Commitment is quickly becoming a thing of the ...read more

    Knowledge (Not Opinion)

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 6, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,319 views

    Some of us handle truth by simply asserting ourselves forcefully. Paul's way was to root truth in revelation rather than logic; to find authentic confidence in personal experience; and to submit himself to transformation. First Baptist Church of Gaithers

    If there’s one thing I have a strong opinion about, it is that I do not like people with strong opinions! I have a hard time with the person who declares what he thinks with absolute hard-core certainty, riding roughshod over any contrary thoughts I might have. I struggle with that. I have ...read more

    Marriage Is A Triangle

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 13, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 7,925 views

    January 1988. Marriage is more than a contract between two people. It must involve God and working toward the purposes of God; otherwise it is a divorce, whether the law is involved or not.

    There are all sorts of reasons not to preach this sermon! There area all kinds of problems kicked up because I have felt led to conclude our series of studies in the prophet Malachi with one of his most pointed and deliberate passages: his passage on marriage and divorce. Getting into this topic ...read more

    We The People, Breaking Bondages Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 15, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,687 views

    God does not want merely personal religion; He desires our investment in breaking the bondages that imprison others. America post-Vietnam is strikingly similar to Judah post-Exile. Neither can afford to retreat into comfortable religion.

    A great nation had been humiliated by something they had never supposed could happen. Because they saw themselves as the people of God, chosen by him for a special role in the world's history, they had imagined themselves invulnerable. God would never desert his people, they believed. God would not ...read more

    What God Wants On Sunday Morning

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 16, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,349 views

    We are incurably religious, thinking that if we use the right formulas, we will be acceptable to God. But God wants our personal involvement and our investment in understanding Him.

    Our most persistent sin is that we are religious. Of all the sins that men and women commit, of all the wrongheaded directions we take, of all the wayward wanderings on which we go, none is more persistent than this: that we are religious. As someone has put it, we are incurably religious. ...read more

    The Melody Lingers On

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 22, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,856 views

    What we learn and share through the arts will build our reserves and will communicate memorably.

    If you really want to leave a lasting impression on somebody, how do you do it? If you truly need for somebody to remember whatever you think is important, how are you going to make sure they won't forget? Well, one technique is, of course, to use words. Lots and lots of words. That’s ...read more

    Peter: The Power Of Peer Pressure

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 5, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,772 views

    Calverton Baptist Church, Silver Spring, MD, 1983: Our denials, like Peter's, reflect our confusing loudness with loyalty and our seeing ourselves as victims rather than victors. But Christ is able to look at us, evoke repentance, and turn us around.

    The fire crackled in the crisp air, casting shadows on the walls not five yards away. It looked inviting, this bonfire, for not only was the night air chilly, but also this whole episode had been so draining, so terrifying, that the body cried out for comfort, for something, anything, that would ...read more

    TRIUMPH THROUGH TESTING TIMES (All my sermons use illustrations found at www.sermoncentral.com and ALL scripture is NIV unless otherwise noted) After a long series of sermons on giving God room to work, it almost seems fitting, to look at scripture and find a place where God tells us, that tough ...read more

    Hazard Ahead: Hypocrisy

    Contributed by Joseph Stapleton on Mar 29, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,082 views

    A main excuse for worldly people not to come to church is that the church is full of hypocrites, well there is always room for one more.

    HAZARD AHEAD: HYPOCRISY (All my sermons use illustrations found at www.sermoncentral.com and All scripture is NIV unless otherwise noted) Perhaps one of the biggest reasons given by non-churchgoers is “church is full of hypocrites.” This is true to some extent, but there is always ...read more
