    The line has been drawn, & the battle is on. But do we realize it? Are we people who understand the times & know what should be done? You see, there are four areas in which this battle is being fought.

    Answers the question "How far is it from Bethlehem to Calvary?" from several different view points

    Well it’s almost here, and almost gone. Day after tomorrow it’ll be over, the presents will be opened, the turkey will have been eaten, the carols will have been sung and for all practical purposes Christmas 2000 will be but a fond memory. And yet it is only 16 weeks until we celebrate Easter. ...read more

    Focus on immediate suffering, or a longer-term perspective?

    This sermon takes a look at the cross through the eyes of the disciples and how the cross which was originally one of suffering and shame became one of rejoicing and elation.

    How could they have been so wrong. One by one they each chose to leave everything and to answer the call to follow Jesus and become fishers of men. For 3 brief years they watched in anticipation as Jesus worked miracles and taught with authority. Peter even stated that Jesus was indeed the ...read more

    A look at types of Committments Christians make to Christ.

    [Ps. 37:5] Commit thy way unto the LORD: trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass.

    Beyond the Passion there is an empty tomb but what does that mean to us?

    Luke 24:1-12 Beyond the Passion He was dead, and with him died all of their dreams, all of their hopes everything they believed in. They had given everything to him, their past, their present even their future and up until three days ago it seemed like a pretty good bargain. All he had wanted ...read more

    Jesus established His church to be a place where we could develop friendships... and where we could become His friends.

    OPEN: Some years ago Collier’s Magazine published a story about a little girl in an orphanage. She was quite unattractive and had many annoying habits, which resulted in her being shunned by the children and disliked by the staff.

    Other People's Pain

    Contributed by Thomas Bowen on Oct 25, 2007
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,023 views

    Is it possible to really feel another person’s pain? When are we willing to allow our selves to feel others pain. How did Jesus demonstrate the feeling of pain?

    Other People’s Pain My mother and father both said it. I never believed it and I think I told them so. They would always say it just before “IT” happened…. They would say “this is going to hurt me a lot more that it is going to hurt you!” Has anyone said that to you? Just as they told ...read more

    There are too many people in our churches today who want to follow Jesus and yet they reject the Bible. We need to be desperate for more of God.

    Back in the 1990’s a friend of mine pioneered church in Liberty, Missouri called Desperation Church. In 1995 Marie Barnett wrote the song Breathe, the chorus says, “I’m desperate for you.” Searching the music libraries of CCLI, there are at least 50 songs with the word “desperate” in the title. ...read more

    No peacekeeper just peace makers please www.preaching.co.nr

    The Biblical concept of PEACE is more than the greeting Shalom. Shalom was a pronouncement of good spiritual, physical and material well being upon the person greeted. The Bible speaks of our peace with God in reconciliation and assurance, peace of mind that is void of offence and living in harmony ...read more
