     | 10,094 views

    Scripturally, the church is a change agent. In Luke 10:1, we have a prefiguring of the changes that the Church will make in the world. "70 sent" is Luke’s expressing a world-wide influence. In this context, Christ present to the 70, in the use of three im

     | 8,981 views

    The church does not and should not have a caste system. The church is not a place of racism nor classism, yet why are we not growing?

    The sins of Favoritism James 2:1-13 (Instruction: Come in dressed well) Jesus Christ is the Lord who left the glory of heaven and came to this corruptible world to save sinners like us. He humbled himself, laid aside His position in heaven, and became like us. He was born is dire ...read more

    After 8 months sidetrack, this message brings us back to James to hear his words about living and life. Favoritism is an ugly thing anywhere at anytime, but especially for God’s family.

    The Face of Favoritism James 2:1-13 * I recently read a story about a man who was the interim pastor of a church. He hadn’t been at the church for long, so the people didn’t know him very well yet. (Interim pastors are in a very unique position. Many times they have a lot more insight into what’s ...read more

    Are you telling the world the reasons why you have hope in the Lord? Are you living a good and holy life so that those you meet might focus not on your hypocrisy but on the life-saving Gospel message you bring? Are you willing to place the interests of others above that or your own?

    Many people are asking in this season, "What is God up to?" We seem to be living in a period of great silence. Believers are searching in vain for something God is doing powerfully in the body of Christ and trying to no avail to hear marching orders from

    God has given to all believers the Great Commission – to preach the good news and make disciples. Here are 5 keys Jesus gives to effective evangelism.

    MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE INTRO TO TOPIC: When I mention the word “evangelism”, what do you think of? • Someone standing on the street corner shouting out, “Turn or burn!” • The fear associated with going from house to house knocking on people’s doors? 2008 = a year of new beginnings, and a year of ...read more

    Do I love the church more than I love Jesus and lost people?

    Acts 5:12-16 shows us some keys to the accomplishment of the church’s mission.

MacArthur Jr., Acts, vol. 1, MacArthur New Testament Commentary [Chicago: Moody Press, 1994], 159). He goes on to note that widespread confusion exists ...read more

    The Temple Incident

     | 4,190 views

    Jesus actions in the temple demonstrate that we have a responsibility to reach out and not just to make things comfortable for ourselves.

    The story we read today is an interesting one. It’s one that doesn’t really fit with the picture of Jesus that we usually think about. How does a loving Jesus, who goes around teaching good morals, fit with this violent figure who disrupts a market place, stops temple worship and causes chaos. If ...read more

    Contributed by David Nolte on Dec 15, 2019
     | 3,972 views

    We are often hesitant about launching out on new ventures even when we are sure God is saying "Go!"

    Years ago, on a dangerous sea coast where shipwrecks often occurred prior to advanced navigation aids, there was a little life-saving station. The building was just a hut and they had only one boat, but the few devoted members kept a constant watch over the sea. When there was word of a ...read more
