End Of The World? Series

Contributed by Paul Clemente on Apr 7, 2014

God gives us clues about the end of the world so that we can properly respond to Him!

How many of you have heard that the end of the world was supposed to happen?? Show cartoon…. Over and over again there will be doomsayers and they will all be wrong because the only truth is what God states in the Bible.

Joy To The World

Contributed by Marc Phillips on Dec 18, 2015

We should carry our Joy in everything we do. Our joy is a gift of the Holy Spirit and when we are less than joyful we are squashing that spirit. Joy to the World is not just for Christmas, but for all year long!

Scripture is shared from the NASB... We just sang Joy to the World as a praise song, and I think we did a pretty good job of it. I’d like to try this exercise together if you would indulge me for a moment. Let’s sing that first verse again, only let’s do it with a scowl or a ...read more

Connecting With The World Series

Contributed by Paul Barreca on Feb 10, 2016

Understanding your audience is important! But while it is EASY to see this in MISSIONS, we fail to apply this to evangelism!

Let me share a fictitious story about two missionaries and their approach to missions. These two missionary couples are not real. Their stories however are very real and reflect a variety of common missionary situations. To add simplicity (and a small degree of good-heartedness) to our story, ...read more

"What In The World?" Series

Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on May 23, 2016

Christians must resist worldliness.

Soon after a person becomes a Christian he discovers that being a Christian is not a bed of roses. Just because he is saved, does not mean he has left his struggles behind. As a wise man once said, "A school bus driver is probably the only person who can honestly say he has all his troubles behind ...read more

Bizarro World

Contributed by Ron Hietsch on Nov 1, 2014

As The World Panics

Contributed by Steve Woods (Pastor Woody) on Mar 23, 2020

We are in dire times right now. It is important to all of us that we keep our focus on God and not let the world distract us from our mission... only adapt, as God leads us through this struggle.

Our nation and the entire world is in high-panic mode at this time, and we here at Sunrise Chapel, will do everything within our power to help the local communities and people impacted by the restrictions put on us by our state and federal governments. We have all agreed to “follow the rules” put ...read more

World Views Series

Contributed by Paul Clemente on Sep 18, 2017

Does God’s schedule drive our life schedules or do we live our own personal schedules and then somehow try to drive God into it?

I hope you have been learning much and thrilled about learning from the Gospel of Mark as I have been. Praise God for this Gospel. There is so much to learn and I pray you are as challenged and determined as I am to follow our Lord Jesus Christ more and more. We are now in Mark 13; as we will note, ...read more

Dead To The World

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Nov 11, 2019

During the Last Supper, Jesus tells disciples that they are not of this world. And in the epistles, we see that Christians are dead to sin. In this message, we look at what it means to be dead but spiritually alive.

Dead To The World Let’s open with John 18:36. Jesus has been arrested and is being questioned by Pilate. “Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from ...read more

The Attractive World

Contributed by Martin Holland on Sep 7, 2012

One of the biggest challenges for believers today is to dwell in this world and yet remain his or her distance from its fatal attraction.

The Attractive World 1 John 2:15-17 The world is an environment that we dwell in. We have families, jobs, we own things and involve ourselves in worldly activities. Though there is maybe nothing wrong with any of these things they make it easier for us to become attached to the world beyond that ...read more

The World In The Church

Contributed by Martin Holland on Oct 18, 2012

This church instead of impacting the world the world had an impact on it. Sadly to say this appears to be much like today.

The World in the Church Revelation 2:12-17 We are about to study the third Church in which the Lord writes. The Church of Ephesus was challenged to fall in love with Him again and the Church of Smyrna was praise for their faithful in the mist of persecution. They were poor by the world’s ...read more
