    Put Down Your Bullhorn Series

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jun 8, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,120 views

    There were times where Jesus started out a sentence by saying, “I tell you the truth”. It was a declaration of affirmation where he was placing a strong emphasis on what followed. Today we'll look at his use of it in Matt. 6:1-4.

    “PUT DOWN YOUR BULLHORN” Matthew 6:1-4 There were times where Jesus started out a sentence by saying, “I tell you the truth”. We would say that everything Jesus said is the truth. We would also say that everything Jesus said is important so we might wonder why he sometimes ...read more

    A Remedy For Wretchedness

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jun 28, 2015
     | 4,353 views

    Paul desperately wants to be delivered from the influence of indwelling sin. He struggles, as do we all, with his corrupt nature. Through Christ we overcome and make progress...yet the more we grow, the more in touch we are with our faults.

    Do you ever feel like a hopeless mess? The Apostle Paul sure did. In Romans 7 he berates himself for his shortcomings: “What a wretched man I am!” Paul's problem was a serious condition. Sin enslaves; it takes over. Jeremiah writes that the human heart is “desperately ...read more

    To enable the listener to see people as Jesus does!

    Do you have any annoying people in your life? A spouse does not count because in the “for better or for worse clause” we accepted certain irregularities.

    Story Of Naaman - God Is In Control

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Oct 8, 2013
     | 14,476 views

    God is in control. He does what He does, when He does it for His glory.

    Our story begins with a five star General of the armed forces of ancient Syria whose name was Naaman. His name means "delightful, pleasant, beautiful" and has the idea of someone who is "well formed." Just from what his name means, we can consider that Naaman grew up with the idea that he was ...read more

    What is sin? How did it begin? What is repentance?

    Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God If you doubt, read your newspaper.

    There Is Hope

    Ponder the various responses of the people who came to know of the empty tomb and the resurrection of Jesus.

    Can this be real? That Jesus died and then came back to life? • What does it mean to us if He is dead? Does it really matter? The truth is, it matters. If Jesus claims to be God and comes from heaven, and He remains dead, then there is no hope for anyone. • Death ends everything. Death will be ...read more

    Words are powerful. Words can change a person's life. Words can change history. Consider how three words on Easter morning, "He has risen!" have changed human history - have changed your history!

    "And Then He Raised The Knife...!"

    Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 14, 2017
     | 11,101 views

    It wasn't enough to travel 3 days, or build the altar, or stack on the wood, or bind his son, or even to place his son on the altar. God waited until the great Patriarch raised the knife! Why wait so long? Why does God take us to the edge?

    John the Baptist helps us get ready for Advent. He points us to baptism, repentance, and the Mighty One, Jesus Christ. This sermon looks at the text and then shifts into an application with two illustrations.

    To borrow the words of Meredith Wilson: “It is beginning to look a lot like Christmas, everywhere you go.” Thanksgiving is done and the leftovers are consumed. Black Friday is over. Cyber Monday and Cyber week are finished. This week, we had our first real taste of winter and Minnesota weather ...read more

    Some thought Jesus was either crazy or possessed? did that include Jesus' own family?

    Is He Crazy? Mark 3:20-35 In Mark’s Gospel, Jesus had just finished calling the twelve for the ministry.

    “he Was Deserted By His Friends” Series

    Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Apr 27, 2015
     | 8,629 views

    Why did Jesus' disciples desert Him in His hour of need?

    As Jesus hung on the cross, He saw the soldiers who had dismissed Him, the Romans who had tortured Him, and His own people who had rejected Him. But perhaps the response most troubling was that of His closest followers. With the exception of John, His disciples deserted Him. In His greatest hour of ...read more
