How do you handle impending doom? You know, those times when something bad is happening and it's about to get much worse? Jesus faced the ultimate in impending doom in the Garden of Gethsemane. How He handled it is a model for us in times of difficulty.
The stage has been set, the lights have dimmed. The players have taken their places and learned their lines. All the blocking is complete and the production of Jesus’ crucifixion is ready to begin.

Some investments give good returns. Others completely fail. Is there any investment which gives a guaranteed return? Yes, there is.
I expect some of us invest money, maybe in property or in shares in companies. Perhaps some of us ‘invest’ in other ways. We invest in our future by studying and passing exams. We invest time in people. When we invest, we hope for a return. What do you suppose is the best investment of all? ...read more

A sermon about change. Churches must be willing to change or die.
“Picking Up Our Mats” John 5:1-9a I don’t like change. It scares me. It’s like diving into the unknown. When I was a child, my family moved around a lot. By the time I entered the 6th Grade I had already lived in four different states. I remember when I moved from Dayton, Ohio to ...read more

The final enemy that Christ will do away with is Death.
We live in an evil world. The time is growing closer to the time of the end. We discussed this spiritual battle that we are all in, we touched on the enemies we face: We all do battle with the devil, or Satan. The Bible calls him the accuser. He was the one that introduced sin into the world ...read more

This may be the only sermon preached against an altar! When God's prophet came to Bethel, some interesting things happened. Something even happened to the altar itself.
Introduction The Bible records messages proclaimed against many topics. This is especially true in the Old Testament: the prophets spoke about (and against) various kings, nations, and even the nations of Israel and Judah. The text here is unusual because, first, it’s spoken against an altar! So ...read more
Scripture: 1 Kings 13:1-10
This is a powerful Christmas monologue. Christmas from the eyes of Joseph. A proper production can be very powerful.
Did you know that Joseph has no speaking parts in the Christmas story? The Bible never quotes anything that Joseph said. With that in mind, I want to take some creative liberties and put some words into Joseph's mouth. It's important to let you all know that this piece is just a creative ...read more

We have determined there will be a resurrection of the saints. The next logical question is, “When shall the Resurrection come?” The coming Resurrection some call a Rapture. We will define this term in our lesson today.
In our study of the Resurrection and what scripture tells us, we read the introduction of the topic of a resurrection by our Lord, Jesus Christ. (The Gates of Hell Shall Not Prevail) Last week we studied the resurrection as spoken by Jesus and his Apostles. (Resurrection?) We have determined there ...read more

Risk taking is an essential ingredient in ministry for the Kingdom of God. Most Bible heroes were risk takers. Jesus was a risk taker too.

Some Christians have also been told ...read more
