    Healing At Bethesda

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 12, 2025
     | 310 views

    Modern life’s relentless pace and “idol of exhaustion” leave people physically drained and spiritually empty, setting the stage for Jesus’ Sabbath invitation to true rest.

    1. The Weariness We Carry A group of pastors once met in small circles to share their lives. One question asked, “What do you enjoy doing in your spare time—how do you relax?” Again and again the answer came back: “Spare time? I don’t have any.” We fool ourselves if we think this nonstop pace ...read more

    Jesus is the returning bridegroom who will arrive triumphantly at the end of the age. Beloved , blessed are those whose lamps are faithfully kept burning as they watch and wait for his appearance. Be Ready for "The Cry at Midnight." (Redone Nov 2017)

    For those not familiar with an Anglican Service; there are four Scripture Readings before the Sermon. The Scripture Readings for this day were: Joshua:24:1-25; Psalm 78:1-7; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 and Matthew 25:1-13. A film crew was on location deep in the desert.

    Have You Any Room Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Dec 1, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 18,775 views

    There was no room to be found for Mary and Joseph to stay in Bethlehem? Seriously? You'd think someone would have taken pity on a VERY pregnant woman that day, but no one did. Why not?

    Several years ago, a church held a Christmas pageant with a group of 4 year-olds. Everything went along pretty well until Mary and Joseph “arrived” at the inn. The 4 year-old Joseph asked: “Do you have any room for us?”. “No,” replied the innkeeper, “the inn is full.” “But it’s so cold outside, ...read more

    Casting Your Cares On Him Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Sep 30, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 19,212 views

    Life can be troubling and even scary sometimes. There will be times that we just don't believe anybody is going to be there for us... or that anybody cares. But the Bible says there IS someone who is there and cares. Do you know why that matters?

    OPEN: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltaFMO3BaNQ (a video clip from the TV series: “This Is Us”) It’s a dark and stormy night. It’s scary and Kevin is all by himself. His brother and sister are nowhere to be found and so he does what any little boy would do in that case… he goes to his parents ...read more

    "How Will We Serve God In 2016?"

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on Dec 23, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,902 views

    A sermon for the New Year.

    "How Will We Serve Christ in 2016?" Matthew 25:31-45 I think this is a very appropriate passage of Scripture to look at as we come to the end of a year, and prepare for a new one. The reason I say this is that Jesus is filling in the metaphors of the parables that come before it. "This is ...read more

    How David Overcame Fear PRO Sermon

    Contributed by Sermon Research Assistant on Oct 30, 2025
    based on 3 ratings
     | 81 views

    Trusting God in the midst of fear means refusing to panic, anchoring ourselves in His Word, and passing courage to others through faith.

    If fear had a face, many of us could sketch it from memory. It’s the 2 a.m. visitor, the whisperer of what-ifs, the tightness in the chest that shows up when the phone rings, the inbox pings, or the doctor clears his throat. Fear creeps into bedrooms, boardrooms, and back pews. It visits ...read more

    For those of us who have already given our hearts to Jesus, We must ask ourselves Are we truly allowing Him to be the Lord of our daily lives.

    Are you living or existing? It seems like a lot of times in our lives We are simply existing instead really living life for all its worth. We get up, go to work or school, or we begin our daily routine, Whatever it may be and we simply go through the motions. One day seems to blend into the ...read more

    Based on an illustration about Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, a great sermon about going from hopelessness to hope because of Christmas.

     | 6,761 views

    Before we can become like Jesus, we must first choose to commit every moment of the day to Surrender and Obedience and that will require us to Adjust.

    April 23, 2022 At the center of our life of discipleship is Jesus. We have chosen to hold fast to, cling to, bond to, attach ourselves to, be faithful to ---- HIM.

    Learn from Jesus, solitude with God rejuvenates. Communion with God nourishes our spirit. Times with God clarify our priorities.

    Many things in life can drain us of energy – relationships, people, work and even ministries. • We are tired because there are so many things that needs our attention, and so little time. So much work to do and so few people doing them. • There are many expectations we need to ...read more

    Elijah’s experience tells us that no matter how saved you are you’re going to have some bad days. Your faith will be tried, there are seasons in your life when you will question what you believe, when you will doubt your faith.

    1st Kings 19:4 – LORD I THINK I’VE HAD ENOUGH It is enough; now, 0 LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers. Life is composed of experiences and encounters that provide challenge to one’s character and testing to one’s spirit. Life’s greatest wars are never fought on a ...read more
