    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 20, 2008
     | 3,586 views

    For Earth Day -- We continue to deplete resources, but there are more to be found. We cannot ignore the mandate to make sure that all have material as well as spiritual needs met. God’s call is to care about all aspects of all people and all the earth.

    The universal symbol of a person taking his ease – the sign on the door, “Gone fishing.” You came to the medical office to get a checkup, but the doctor decided he had done enough for one day; “Gone fishing.” You came to the lawyer’s office to put First Baptist Church of Gaithersburg into your ...read more

    "If You Love Me, Feed My Sheep"

    Test pilots, punching into the atmosphere, climbing to undreamed heights in jet planes and space craft, have a phrase they use to describe their work. Do you know what it is? They call it “punching holes in the sky.” That is what we were meant to do with our lives, to climb beyond humdrum and ...read more

    Jesus made many appearances after His resurrection to prove both who He was and what He said was true.

    The post-resurrection appearances John 21:1-12 Three men were sitting on a park bench one day, when a faith healer asked if any of them had any physical problems. Well, the first guy said, ‘I’ve suffered from back pain ever since I was in the war. Is there any way you can ...read more

    What do you do when the band stops playing and the “Amen’s” are no longer shouted? What do you do when it seems like faith has been misguided? Consider the condition of the disciples on the day after Easter.

    THE DAY AFTER EASTER John 21:1-19 Introduction: Edgar Allen Poe wrote, “When the excitement dies, the elevation of soul ends and so does the poem, in so far as it is a poem.” What do you do when the band stops playing and the “Amen’s” are no longer shouted?

    Jesus shows Himself to us in various ways.

    Text: “After these things Jesus showed Himself again to the disciples at the Sea of Tiberias… (John 21:1). According to the Gospel of John, this is the third time Jesus appeared before the disciples. The first time was the evening of the Resurrection. “Then the same day at evening, when the ...read more

    Fishing For People For The Kingdom

    This incident probably reminded the disciples of the time 3 years earlier when Jesus asked them to cast their nets again. That was the time when he first called them to be fishers of men.

    The disciples have seen the resurrected Jesus, alive and well. He appeared to them on the evening of Resurrection Sunday (20:19) – Easter Day. On that occasion He commissioned them – He authorised them to go – saying, “As the Father has sent me, I am sending you” (20:21); and he then appeared to ...read more

    Jesus appeared on the beach as an intervention to keep the disciples from missing out on Pentecost and going off-the-track of ministering to the entire world.

    This is going to seem like a strange question, but how many of you have heard of “The Amazing Randi?” He was a stage magician, “mentalist,” and escape artist (in the tradition of Houdini). He once escaped from a block of ice and once escaped from a straitjacket while hanging upside-down over ...read more

    Finding Jesus, again, was something the disciples had to do. The “old” Jesus was laid in the tomb. The “new” Jesus was now alive. Not fully understanding the Cross and His Salvation, they were mystified about His death and His purpose.

    Finding Jesus Afterward Jesus appeared again to his disciples, by the Sea of Tiberias. It happened this way: 2 Simon Peter, Thomas (called Didymus), Nathanael from Cana in Galilee, the sons of Zebedee, and two other disciples were together. 3 “I’m going out to fish,” Simon Peter told them, and they ...read more

    Scripture Introduction 153. They remained on their boat through the night, as was common. Day broke with nothing to show for their effort.

    John 21 describes the dynamics of discipleship

    I am not a good letter writer. It seems as if I always leave something out. When I do write letters, I often have to add a P.S. This final chapter of John's gospel seems to a postscript. The closing verses of John 20 seem to conclude the book. Then, as an apparent postscript, chapter 21 is ...read more

    Jesus was still teaching the disciples lessons - even after the tomb. Here, he teaches a lesson using a miraculous catch of fish.

    VERSES 1-3 Jesus was still trying to teach the disciples a lesson, even after His death. Jesus was going to leave the disciples in charge of His work and His mission here on this earth. After the events of Christ’s death, some believe that Peter returned to fishing because he felt ...read more

    Emergency Planning

    Emergency planning means getting ready for when things go wrong. This sermon considers how well we are prepared for things to go wrong in our Christian lives and how God can lift us back up when we fall.

    Many years ago when I was rather younger and fitter than I am now I was a member of a local Rescue Team. Our remit was partly Mountain Rescue but since the mountains in our area were rather made up of hills and moors this was not the dramatic role you might expect. We tended to get calls to assist ...read more

    We cannot question God's love for us, it is obvious but do we love him above all things?

    “The Love Check” Text: John 21:1-19 Intro: Illustration: The story of Narcissus in Greek mythology. You see the great mystery of life is not whether God loves man; the evidence is too overwhelming for a sensible person to deny it? But the great mystery is can man ever love God above ...read more
