    based on 50 ratings

    Our motivation (why we do what we do...who we do it for) is examined. Nehemiah shows us the courage and power of doing things for God’s approval rather than the applause of men.

    This is the last message in our series on Nehemiah -It has been a Book full of practical instruction and hope -It has reminded us of the consequences of SIN… -It reminds us of the difference that ONE PERSON can make if they are committed to glorifying God. -It has shown us that God LOVES and ...read more

    Woman, Here Is Your Son

    based on 7 ratings

    We have recorded for us seven of the sayings made by Jesus from the cross. This sermon seeks to describe what were are to gain/learn from Jesus providing for his mother.

    John, in specifically selecting the events that lead to belief, preserves for us three of the recorded sayings that Jesus made while suffering the unthinkable, the unimaginable on the cross. The Synoptic writers record four others. We would be in error to portray that we know for certain that ...read more

    verse-by-verse

    As we continued our studies in Genesis last week we saw how Joseph convinced the brothers once and for all that they were completely forgiven for their sins against him. Once that was all settled, life must have cruised along for Joseph and his family because the story picks back up some 50 plus ...read more

    Did you know that this age seeks to distract you from becoming like the Lord and serving in His story? Plenty and want are two sides of the same coin and they seek to keep us from freely loving and being used by God. Find out how to beat them at their own

    So far in our study of the book of Matthew we have seen Jesus proclaim that only by realizing our lack or rightness and God’s provision of life can we have hope and a future. We saw that God intends for us to be light and salt—communicating His message to a dark and bland world. We saw that God is ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 1,878 views

    The question is how do we work out our salvation? If salvation is a free gift by God for by grace we are saved, what must I do to work out that which God is working in.

    Work Out Part 2 Philippians 2:12 - 16 It is God working in us, constantly. Need a bountiful supply of the Holy Spirit. Must work out that which God is working in. The next question to try to answer is: how do we work it out? Main theme of book of Philippians = become more and more like ...read more

    This sermon examines the Biblical purpose that is fulfilled through a Sunday School ministry.

    Today, I want to lead you in a celebration of the Sunday School. Why do we promote Sunday School since it is not mentioned in the Bible and Jesus did not establish it? Where did it come from? Sunday School began in the 1700’s in Gloucester, England with a man named Robert Raikes. Mr. Raikes, a ...read more

    The Surprising Path To A Life Of Impact In The Age Of Facebook And Twitter Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jun 27, 2013
     | 7,981 views

    This message focuses on the need to impact lives with small acts of love. Doing that is compared to the idea of living a life of impact because someone has 1,500 Facebook friends.

    LIVES THAT HAVE IMPACT: Today many define impact in terms of Facebook friends, Twitter followers, and YouTube hits. - There is a presumption within many in our society today that having 1,500 friends on Facebook, a million followers on Twitter, or a YouTube video with 100,000 hits is evidence of a ...read more

    If...then...

    What ‘if’s’ do we have in our lives that we think about, or even dwell upon at times? What would we do when those answers were realized? Would we really be any different? What then?

    If…Then Sept. 6, 2009 ‘If’ is a short, two-letter word that can carry very powerful meaning. If I had a million dollars, then I would be happy. I need to lose weight…if only I had the time to exercise. If only I had taken that other job, I wouldn’t be where I am today. If someone would ask ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 12,457 views

    In Paul's "to live is Christ, to die is gain," we learn a new boldness, a singlemindedness, and a fearless approach to death when God brings it. We can serve God fully with yearning expectation for the life to come.

    Philippians 1:21-26 Living with One Foot in Eternity Over the next four weeks, we’ll look at the tiny New Testament book of Philippians. It’s actually a letter the Apostle Paul wrote around 61 AD to the church in Philippi. Paul wrote from prison in Rome, probably during his first imprisonment, ...read more

    Committed To Promoting The Gospel Series

    Even though Paul was in bonds, he rejoiced that the Gospel continued to be preached. He refused to allow his circumstances create despair. We too must seek every opportunity to share our faith, while rejoicing for others who are committed as well.

    Committed to Promoting the Gospel Philippians 1: 12-18 As one reads the opening verses of this letter, it is not immediately evident that Paul was bound in prison. His joy and positive attitude conceal the difficulties he faced daily. Although he was not free to move about within society, Paul ...read more
