    based on 90 ratings

    If Jesus had a passion for "sinners" why do they feel so unwelcome in our churches today?

    Illus.: Four Preachers Confess Four preachers met for a friendly gathering. During the conversation one preacher said, “Our people come to us and pour out their hears, confess certain sins and needs. Let’s do the same. Confession is good for the soul.” In due time all agree. One of them said that ...read more

    Getting Real With Your Enemies Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 5, 2003
    based on 28 ratings
     | 3,727 views

    Hostility comes from the obsessed, self-absorbed heart, and often offers permission for random acts of violence. Jesus got real with His enemies by naming their madness but trusting His own defense to God.

    Stress strengthens. That is a physical fact. It is also a spiritual truth. Stress strengthens us. When we face opposition, we grow. When we deal with differences, we become stronger than we were. Strange as it may seem, and unpleasant though it may feel, give thanks when you ...read more

    This message deals with one of the consequences of following Jesus: Suffering!

    I’m encouraged today by the fact that 12 of our Brethren were not side-tracked by the Success Syndrome. To the Apostles of the First Church of Jerusalem, SUCCESS WAS SUFFERING SERVICE. Which leads me to conclude that the Success of a Person or Church is not determined by Praise but by Pain; not by ...read more

    This is about God’s free gift of salvation.

    He doubted God. He was a rebellious teenager. He didn’t do drugs or anything like that. This guy was mostly attitude with a foul mouth. He grew up in the church, but it never seemed real. He would endure church on Sundays. He wasn’t sure God could exist. There was too much fun to be had. ...read more

    This is about having faith that overcomes.

    There is that guy in Greek mythology, I think, that pushes the boulder up the hill only to have it roll back down. He does this continuously. He pushes the boulder up the hill, and then it rolls back down, over and over and over without end. Doesn’t it feel that sometimes you are pushing a ...read more

    Why did Jesus have to die such a gruesome horrible death? Why choose the crucifixion and not the firing squad?

    Passion of the Christ The movie “The Passion of the Christ” has generated all sorts of discussion in the media, in mainstream society and in churches • If nothing else it has forced people to once again confront Pilate’s question, “What do you want me to do with this man Jesus? • So today we are ...read more

    Dying To Live Series

    Because Christ has died and we have died with him, sin no longer has the power to do us in. But, if we open the door, sin can still hurt us.

    During this period of time leading up to the crucifixion and resurrection of Jesus, we are focusing on the book of Romans. Romans is the longest, the deepest, the most penetrating explanation of what the death and resurrection of Jesus means for God’s people. So, it is fitting that we take a ...read more
