    What's Up With Envy? Series

    Contributed by Bruce Landry on May 23, 2005
    based on 10 ratings
     | 3,614 views

    We are admonished in God’s word to put away envy. Let us study how envy can destroy our lives if we do not take authority in Christ to put it away.

    ENVY (Heb. qin’â; Gk. phthonos). (1) That discontented feeling that arises in the selfish heart in view of the superiority of another (real or imagined), nearly tantamount to jealousy (Psalm 37:1; Psalm 73:3; Proverbs 24:1, 19; Phil. 1:15; etc.). (2) That malignant passion that sees in another ...read more

    The power of prayer is relationship; it is our relationship of knowing Both God and his plans that guided Abraham’s prayers - the same knowledge ought also to guide ours.

    LEARNING TO PRAY: The power of Relationship in prayer The Lords Prayer starts out with words that are all quite familiar to us. Can you quote the first line for me? <pause> "Pray, then, in this way: ’Our Father who is in heaven, Hallowed be Your name. (Matthew 6:9) In teaching us that single ...read more

    What character qualities have to do with my relationship with the world about me?

    Today we are going to continue our consideration of the particulars of Christian character development. We note that Peter is very specific concerning what character qualities we should seek to develop as a Christian if we are going to progress toward Christ-likeness (vs. 5-7). He seems to list ...read more

    Biblical support for Capital Punishment and what it means for our country.

    Capital Punishment Romans: 13: 4 For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.

    All have sinned

    Its common for people today to excuse their faults with the attitude, “He nobody’s perfect!” True enough. People can only be expected to be human which means fallible. Unfortunately, though, few people take that reality seriously enough. Indeed when it comes to their standing before ...read more

     | 60,124 views

    As long as the church of Jesus Christ has the potential to improve, we need to be serious about encouraging others.

    Encouragement: Making Others Strong 1. Why is it that many of us are into “approval addiction?” 2. Some of us need a lot of approval, whereas others needs less. But we all need it. Why? 3. The answer is simple: life is rough, and it tears away at our self-esteem. People, circumstances, our ...read more

    Contributed by Brandon Searles on Mar 1, 2005
    based on 14 ratings
     | 4,967 views

    This nation is in need of Heroes. We must resurrect the dream within our children to believe in heros. Perhaps not Superman or Spiderman but the hero of a loving father.

    (Read Malachi 4:5-6) ¡§Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD. And he will turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers, lest I come and strike the earth with a curse.¡¨ Intro: As ...read more

    based on 37 ratings
     | 4,823 views

    In the 23rd Psalm we see David reflecting upon his life from the Green Pastures of his youth to the valley of the shadow of death(which was not far off). He notes one common theme namely that the Lord was his shepherd, today can we say the same thing?

    Is The Lord My Shepherd? Psalm 23 ORIENTATION: • Have you ever taken a moment to reflect upon your life? • To simply stop what you are doing, be quite and reflect? • For some of us maybe this is too difficult (the hurts to great, and pain to unbearable) for others impossible (especially if ...read more

    The word of the prophet, into the world of the prophet, depends on the walk of the prophet with God

    The Serving Prophet Introduction One of the great things about being a parent or a grandparent is being able to read children’s stories.

     | 53,906 views

    Motherhood & wisdom go hand-in-hand. Mothers aren’t perfect, and this message presents two imperfect mothers, and the wisdom of Solomon.

    “A Mother’s Split Decision” 1 Kings 3:16-28 INTRODUCTION: Today is Mother’s Day! Our text today has to do with MOTHERS … and WISDOM. The 2 need to go hand-in-hand … “Amen” mothers?

    "Should We Really Be Afraid Of Death?”

    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,574 views

    If we take the time to realistically examine our culture, especially our western culture, we will readily see that death is not something we think about very much.

    For Christians, the season of Lent is the time of our church year like no other because our focus is drawn on a very unpopular topic, death. We are taken on a journey covering the last weeks of Jesus’ ministry, which ends with his horrible torture and death by crucifixion. But because we ...read more

     | 6,640 views

    Fearing and obeying God needs to come first in the Christian’s life

    TO OBEY OR NOT TO OBEY Today’s passage is probably the most difficult one in Romans. How should the strong commands of this Scripture be interpreted when Paul himself didn’t always practice what he preached? It would have been easy to skip over Romans 13 in our series of preaching through ...read more
