    Love: The Four Types Of Love Series

    Contributed by Paul Basehore on Feb 10, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 32,326 views

    Of the four types of love, only one can be chosen -- Agape. God did this intentionally because Agape is the most powerful, and echoes the love He has for us.

    Last week we began our series on the L Word with lust, as an example of what love is not. That means that tonight we will begin to learn about what love is. But which love are we talking about? If that question doesn’t make sense, don’t worry -- you’re not alone. We only have one ...read more

    Understanding your audience is important! But while it is EASY to see this in MISSIONS, we fail to apply this to evangelism!

    Let me share a fictitious story about two missionaries and their approach to missions. These two missionary couples are not real. Their stories however are very real and reflect a variety of common missionary situations. To add simplicity (and a small degree of good-heartedness) to our story, ...read more

    What God Can Do With A Happy Meal!

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 25, 2016
     | 9,890 views

    Often we feel like our resources are inadequate. "There's no way God can use me." But we find that God delights to use weak things because it redirects people to Him. Little is much when God is in it.

    WHAT GOD CAN DO WITH A HAPPY MEAL John 6:1-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Euphemisms of a low IQ 1. Elevator doesn’t reach the top floor; 2. 2 bubbles shy of a bubble bath; 3. Not playing with a full desk; 4. Few French fries short of a Happy Meal; 5. Light’s on but nobody’s ...read more

    God will certainly fight our battles, but what is it that we need to do to experience God’s powerful intervention in our lives. This sermon will help us understand our part better.

    We will continue our meditation of the word based on 2 Corinthians 9:8, And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work: (KJV) As we continue to ponder on the theme ‘God is able’ we understand that God is able ...read more

     | 2,296 views

    In this journey of faith, God’s promises stand sure and His timing perfect. Sometimes, we get side-tracked and miss out on the blessings. This sermon will teach us how to avoid pitfalls and stay on course.

    Our meditation for today is based on 2 Corinthians 9:8, “And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work:” (KJV) The Lord is able to keep us from falling, to deliver us from all kinds of hardships, to raise us ...read more

    Build On A Sure Foundation

    Notice, Jesus doesn't use bricks to build His church. He uses people. Imperfect people at that. We are those transgressors and sinners that are referred to at the first of this chapter.

    Alba 2-26-2023 BUILD ON A SURE FOUNDATION Ephesians 2:19-22 Here is a brick. I suppose you figured that out. Originally I used this brick with others and some boards and made a book case about five shelves high. It wasn't very steady, but it worked for me when I was single and no children ...read more

    Most of this chapter revolves around Saul of Tarsus and how he met the Risen Lord Jesus on the Damascus Road. This outline could be expanded into a series or condensed into a single message.

    Introduction: Acts 9 contains two sections. Verses 1-31 contain the conversion of Saul of Tarsus, the ministry of Ananias of Damascus to Saul, and Saul’s early ministry to the people of Damascus. He then fled Damascus, made his way back to Jerusalem, but returned to Tarsus because people wanted to ...read more

    The story of Peter’s denial presents a sober and utterly real picture of the prominent apostle and offers a deep spiritual lesson about humility and the spiritual conflict. Jesus’ look frees the memory and sends grace to the heart.
