Jesus In The Boat Of Your Life

Contributed by Tesh Njokanma on Aug 16, 2022

This sermon highlights the benefits of having Jesus, the Captain of our Salvation sail with us as we go through different situations and seasons of life.

Jesus is always looking for a ‘boat’ – a heart, a life, a ministry, a business, a family, a church, a nation to enter into. When Jesus got into Peter’s boat, Peter didn’t shut or shove Jesus out of his boat, he allowed Him in. Allowing Jesus into his boat, gave Peter a life-changing encounter with ...read more

The Weight Of A Few Words - At Thy Word

Contributed by Loyd C. Taylor on Aug 21, 2023

In this sermon we look at the weight of a few words, or how just a few words spoken by Christ had a major impact on the lives of those who listened and obeyed.

INTRODUCTION: We so seldom think about the impact that our words have on those who are listening, however in many cases we find others hanging onto our words. This is especially true of preachers, so we must be careful what we say. Our words can have a negative or a positive outcome, I’m sure we ...read more

Sinful But Called

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 5, 2025

The power of God’s word, spoken to Peter and the others by the very Word of God, Son of the Father, was enough to kick in the adrenaline and motivate the fishermen to fish longer in the worst time of day in the part of the lake with the worst prospects.

Fifth Sunday in Course 2025 The first thing that strikes me as I read today’s Gospel is that Peter and his fishing crew had been working all night and then had cleaned their nets. These professionals had just worked at least ten hours and were ready to go home. Jesus came along with hundreds of ...read more

While all of us come to faith from a variety of different circumstances, the calling of Simon helps us to see that there are some commonalities among all conversions
