    When towers fall, pride is always involved. "I" is in the middle of pride and sin, but the cross of Christ is "I" crossed out. This sermon shows what pride does to us, God’s reaction to pride, and five steps to avoid pride.

    INTRO For thousands of years, man has continually tried to proudly pat himself on the back for his knowledge and acheivements. For example, when the Titanic was built, it was billed as the “unsinkable ship,” with one person stating that “God Himself could not sink her,” yet it was just an ...read more

    Humility 2016 Part 2

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on May 4, 2016
     | 3,514 views

    Sometimes we need an analysis of how we view ourselves in order to determine if we are actually humble or not. This sermon contains an mini-quiz to that effect and also the testimony of John Piper in an article from 2010 where he was struggling with pride

    Luke 14:1-11 (read from the Bible and have congregation follow along) Luke 14:11 NIV “All those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” Humility … humility in relationship to God comes from knowing that God is God and we are not ...read more

    WHEN GOOD THINGS GO BAD: Sometimes God’s blessings lead people away from God. - 2 Chronicles 26:16. - This is not just something we see here. In the Mosaic Law, as God tells Israel that their obedience will lead to Him blessing, He then explicitly warns them that there is a great danger ...read more

    God’s vision for the earth, for humanity, is so much broader and better than any civil engineering project.

    Second Sunday of Advent I have to admit that when I read the words, “Every valley shall be filled, and every mountain and hill shall be brought low, and the crooked made straight and the rough ways smooth,” I get a mental picture of some A&M graduate, or someone out of one of our other great ...read more

     | 3,030 views

    We are all proud of our achievements. Many times we could be proud of our spirituality itself. What causes that? What are the effects of that? Is there an antidote?

    EGO_ Edging God Out through Pride Last time I preached here, we started a study on what prevents us from fully enjoying the inheritance that Jesus left us, viz; the presence of God. What prevents us from enjoying God’s presence? We saw that it is our EGO. Not the Freudian stuff of ego, but really ...read more

    These proverbs give us helpful instruction for traveling the road of life which we must all travel along.

    Introduction The Road goes ever on and on Down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, And I must follow, if I can, Pursuing it with weary feet, Until it joins some larger way, Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say. “That sounds like a ...read more

     | 6,366 views

    Our value as a person has nothing to do with having our name on the up in lights. God loves us; we can’t improve on that! You don’t have to try and prove you are worthwhile by sneaking your nametag a little higher up on the table. And praise God for that!

    Luke 14:1-14 “The Religion Police” By: Ken Sauer, Pastor of East Ridge United Methodist Church, Chattanooga, TN Luke opens chapter 14 by telling us that Jesus “went to eat in the house of a prominent Pharisee,” on the Sabbath and that “he was being carefully ...read more

    Today in our passage of Scripture we’re going to see a young man approach Jesus and ask Him the most important question of all time...”What must I do to have eternal life?” That is a GREAT question! There were a lot of things this young man did right.
