    Elijah and the widow teach us what to do when everything is going wrong.

    Introduction: The story is told of a man who was walking across the road when he was hit by a car. The impact knocked him on his head which caused him to be in a coma for a couple of days before he finally regained consciousness. When he opened his eyes, his loving wife was there beside his bed ...read more

    What does it mean to love God with "all your heart"?

    Introduction: I’m sure you’ve all heard the old story about the enthusiastic man who walked into a dignified worship service and sat down in a pew.

    Taking hold of salvation requires a diligence on our part.

    Introduction: When I went to school at Freed-Hardeman, we were required in our English literature class to read part of John Bunyan’s book Pilgrim’s Progress. It is perhaps the most well-known religious allegory ever written. For those of you who never had an English teacher force you to read ...read more

    You were created in teh image of God, and that makes you very special.

    Introduction: We sometimes call someone who is in love with himself a narcissist. What you may not know, though, is the story from Greek mythology from which we get that word. There are actually two Greek characters in the myth -- Narcissus and Echo. As the story goes, the goddess Hera got ...read more

    We can serve God in our secular jobs just as Jesus did.

    Introduction: Many years ago, there was a movie which came out entitled "OH GOD". It starred John Denver as a grocery store manager who was visited by God, who was portrayed by George Burns. I’ve never seen the movie, but I heard about one scene which I think may teach us a bit. John Denver ...read more

    How Jesus responded to those who were unclean teaches us a couple of lessons.

    Introduction: If I were to ask those of you who are mothers, do you like for your children to come up and give you a big hug, I suspect you would say, “Of course!” But, let me ask you, are you always anxious and willing to have your beloved child run up to you and put their arms around you? ...read more

    based on 54 ratings
     | 3,877 views

    It’s important to pray in a way that is not self-centered.

    Introduction: Have you ever thought about how much of what we ask God for in our prayers is very self-centered? For example, I heard about a college student who always concluded her prayers with this simple petition: “God, I’m not asking for myself, but please send my mother a son-in-law.” Or ...read more

    Because Christians are children of God, we have an inheritance to look forward to.

    Introduction: The story is told of a young man who was in a movie theater. As the lights dimmed, and he was loaded down with popcorn, cokes and candy, he began to pace up and down the aisle, scanning all the darkened rows. It was obvious he was looking for the people with whom he had come. ...read more

    What Jesus saw in four men should be seen in our lives as well

    Introduction: There’s a familiar old story that’s told about a tightrope walker who did incredible stunts. All over Paris, he would do tightrope acts at tremendously scary heights. Then, he would do it blindfolded, then he would go across the tightrope, blindfolded, pushing a wheelbarrow. As ...read more

    Christianity involves learning facts, doing good deeds and becoming like Christ.

    Introduction: I heard about a story about a man whose wife wanted to buy a pet monkey. The husband protested strongly. He said, "Where will the monkey eat?" She said, "He’ll eat at the table with us." He said, "But what will he eat?" And she said, "He’ll eat the same thing we do." He said, ...read more

    based on 88 ratings
     | 10,533 views

    The Bible is the inspired word of God.

    Introduction: One of the questions that I hear people ask a lot is, “How is the Church of Christ different from this group or that group? What makes you distinctive?” I won’t go into a full and complete answer of that question this morning, but one of the things that makes us who we are is our ...read more

    We need to be persistent in our prayers.

    There’s a magazine cartoon that shows a little fellow kneeling beside his bed for his bedtime prayer. He says with some measure of disgust, "Dear God, Uncle Jim still doesn’t have a job; Sis still doesn’t have a date for the social; Grandma is still feeling sick - and I’m tired of praying for ...read more

    Jesus Christ will be coming again and we need to get ready.

    Introduction: If you were writing a letter to people who were suffering, what is the one thing above all others that you would want to say to them? It would probably be something like this: "What you’re going through will not be in vain. When this terrible ordeal is over, you’ll be able to ...read more

     | 6,139 views

    We have a special responsibility to brothers and sisters who are weak.

    Introduction: I heard about a college recruiter who interviewed a high school basketball star. The recruiter said, "I hear you’re pretty good." The player said, "I’m the best there is. I averaged 45 points per game. I was the best rebounder in my high school. And I led our team to 3 ...read more

     | 65,255 views

    An invitation has been extended and a response is required.

    Introduction: It’s fascinating to me how after only a few years of being married, a couple can sometimes communicate with a very small number of words. Husbands, if you will, imagine this scene with me. You’ve been invited to a party, and after spending the day working out in the yard, you dash ...read more
