    Contributed by Kendall Hicks on Apr 25, 2016
     | 5,949 views

    The idea for this series came from a series of the same name that is offered free by Life.Church. You can find it at open.church. There you will find videos, transcripts, outlines, and graphics. This message is loosely based on the life.church series.

    INTRO: Raising kids made me realize that much has changed from the time I was a child until the time I became a parent; especially, in the area of child protection. For instance, when I was a child, I’m not sure car seats were even invented yet. Truth is, the first car with seatbelts that I ...read more

    When You Really Need God To Show Up

    The story is Elijah's proposed show-down between God and Baal at Mount Carmel. God doesn't want just part of us. He wants all of us, and he will tolerate no substitute, because he knows nothing else will satisfy in his place.

    1 Kings 18:20-39 When You Really Need God to Show Up Today’s story might be called, “The Great Show-down at Mount Carmel.” It is an ultimate, winner-takes-all kind of challenge, Yahweh God vs. Baal. Which one is real? Which one will come through for his people? But why all the ...read more

    Most important; however, is the need to be thankful for the spiritual food and the blessings it brings. We must always allow these blessings to draw us closer to God in faith, hope and love.

    When I was doing the research for my homily, I came across a story that I think fits in quite well with this morning's Gospel reading, so I'd like to share it with you. It might also serve as a warning to those of us who preach sermons! An elderly minister was searching in his closet for his ...read more

    OT prophecy regarding the Advent. The "Stone not cut by human hands" in the Daniel 2 is the Messiah born of a virgin in the NT. Did Daniel understand that Nebuchadnezzar's dream was a prophecy of the coming Kingdom of God to be initiated by Jesus' birth?

    A family was out vacationing at the lake one summer. Dad had been puttering out by the boat house. Two of his sons, a 12-year old and a 3-year old were down playing along the dock. The 12 year old was supposed to be watching his little brother, but he got distracted. The 3 year old, little Billy, ...read more

    A sermon about witnessing to the power of the Resurrection through our giving.

    “This Side of Easter” Acts 4:32-35 Have you ever played that game with someone, the one that goes: “If you won the lottery what would you do?” I did that one time with a buddy of mine in college. First he said he’d buy a Corvette for himself. Then, he went on ...read more

    A sermon about growing into the image of God.

    “Old Clothes, New Clothes” Colossians 3:8-17 Researchers at the University of California, San Diego recently came out with a study showing that, supposedly, people and their dogs often look alike. In the study, a panel of judges was able to match 16 out of 25 pure bread dogs with ...read more

    I got this idea from reading a sermon that i saw on sermon central. Then i just went with teh holy spirit as he lead me. I looked at the ministry of the Holy spirit.

    THE MINISTRY OF THE HOLY SPIRIT Part 1. John 16:7-15. Of all the great stuff that the Bible teaches the Ministry of the Holy Spirit is the one that most people have a problem with. Let me say that I know that I am not an expert, but there ...read more

    God Is Good

    We shout to the Lord because of our faith in Christ. It is because of our hope in our eternal life that we sing songs of gladness.

    There are days that I wake up in the morning and I don’t feel like the songwriter did when he wrote this Psalm. I don’t know about you but there are days, I feel like shouting, but, not joyful stuff. I would have to think that the writer of this Psalm whether it was David or someone ...read more

    A sermon for Epiphany Sunday.

    “Looking for God” Matthew 2:1-12 Today is Epiphany, according to the Christian calendar. Now what do we mean by that? Epiphany, really is that same word, as in, “Wow. I just realized something I had never thought of before. I’ve had an epiphany.” It’s a realization, a revelation, a ...read more

    A great witness demands unity of the body and acceptance of one another as Christ's heirs.

    We began a conversation 5 weeks ago about what gives us meaning in this life and I suggested that the question is actually a mute point for those who call themselves Christian because if we believe that Christ came, died and rose again then we must also live out this reality. To live out this ...read more

    The mission serving the Good Shepherd faces 100s of millions of people worldwide who "have not sufficient exposure to make a decision for or against Christ." How will we reach them?

    Down But Not Out!

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 3, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 17,406 views

    When it comes to suffering, Paul calls us to forsake pity parties and glorify God. We can remember that Jesus shines through us, that our weaknesses glorify God, that we may be down but never out, and that our sufferings may bring eternal life to others.

    2 Corinthians 4:5-12 Down but Not Out! A Christian need never suffer. At least that’s what some preachers might tell you. However, that is not the message of scripture. Jesus said, “If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also” (John 15:20). We should expect no better treatment than that ...read more

    When a local Body of Christ opens the door for a song service, they are giving opportunity for Christians and non-Christians to enjoy music that was written for the purpose of blessing the Lord and meant to be sung as a proclamation of His love for us.

    Title: Blessed, For The Singers Introduction: I would like to read to you from 2 Chronicles 25: 1, 6-7, “David, together with the commanders of the army, set apart some of the sons of Asaph, Heman and Jeduthun for the ministry of prophesying, accompanied by harps, lyres and ...read more
