    The Heavenly Miracle Worker Still Works Miracles Today

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jul 16, 2015
     | 4,467 views

    Jesus is still hard at work in our lives today. He refuses to listen to people who want him to stop doing his work. He is still busy answering prayers and performing healings today....and I for one am certainly grateful that he is.

    Good morning boys and girls! Have your parents ever told you not to do anything or that you couldn't go someplace where you really wanted to go? Well, Jesus certainly knows the feeling. The same situation happened to Jesus in today's Gospel reading. Some people tried to tell him to leave because ...read more

    We who are called to follow in Jesus' footsteps are faced with a challenge. How we respond to it will determine our eternal destiny.

    A certain woman came to the pastor of a church out in West Texas. She asked if she could be a part of the Bible Study he was teaching. He gladly agreed, which eventually resulted in the woman's salvation. Curious, the preacher asked the woman what prompted her to come in and study the Bible. She ...read more

     | 7,272 views

    This is the second sermon in a series about Jesus being The Great Nevertheless. He keeps wonderfully surprising us. Using the Lord’s "nevertheless" statement in the KJV we get a delightful glimpse of our awesome Savior.

    THE NEVERTHELESS OF HIS COMMITMENT Luke 13:31-35 KJV Introduction • [Illus] – About 2,300 years ago Alexander the Great marched his army from Greece to India. Though the distance was long, his army was unstoppable. The only reason he stopped was that his men became homesick and wanted to return ...read more

    Judgment Day will come. But we don't have to fear that day because Jesus overcame every obstacle to give His life for us on the cross.

    Blessed is He Who Comes in the Name of the Lord! March 4, 2007 Luke 13:31-35 31 At that very hour some Pharisees came and said to him, "Get away from here, for Herod wants to kill you." 32 And he said to them, "Go and tell that fox, 'Behold, I cast out demons and perform cures today and ...read more

    Jesus want to gather us together as a hen gathers her chicks, but are we willing to accept his gracious advance?

    Have you ever gotten to the end of your rope? — I have done what I needed to: I’ve graduated from high school, finished college, got a masters degree; I have worked, become a licensed professional, developed into a good project manager; I have been ordained deacon and then priest.

    How sad that many of us miss the joy and blessing that can be ours by knowing and doing what Christ desires. What is Christ’s desire for you and me?

    Christ’s Desire Luke 13:31-34; 19:41-42 Christ’s desire for Israel was that they might have known Him in an intimate relationship as their Messiah. Several days before His triumphal entry into Jerusalem, He expressed that desire when He said after being confronted by some Pharisees, O ...read more

     | 8,071 views

    God’s kingdom is at work in this world, but many people fail to take advantage of their opportunities. Instead of entering the kingdom, some people only ask questions about it. Salvation is not a theory to discuss; it is a miracle to experience.

    How did Jesus handle persecution?

    Jesus said in John 10:10, “I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” Jesus promised an abundant life to his Disciples! But then in John 16:33 Jesus told His Disciples, "In this world you will have trouble!” What did Jesus mean with these statements? How did ...read more

    Taking a look at the reaction of the Pharisees to Jesus healing on the Sabbath and the eternal nature of Christ revealed in His, "Oh Jerusalem, Jerusalem" monologue.

    This is the second week of the Lenten season and in the Scripture we are about to look at we see an incident that took place as Jesus was headed for Jerusalem in order to complete the work for which He came to earth. We know that Jesus was headed to Jerusalem because it says back in Luke 9:51 ...read more

    In the middle of faithlessness and unrepentance, God moves graciously.

    Luke 13:1-9, 31-35 “Fruitlessness” INTRODUCTION Two teenagers were driving along a mountain road near Flagstaff. As some of us have a tendency to do, they were going rather fast—about 75 miles per hour. The driver lost control of the truck. The truck crashed through the ...read more

    Jesus Predicts His Death Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021
     | 2,591 views

    Think of it: Jesus marshaled no army and He carried no weapon. Jesus never used His miraculous powers to throw the Pharisees off the nearest cliff. Yet, the threat of Jesus was so great, He often made enemies into allies:

    A New York Times editorial claims that America’s views on the death penalty are changing. 35 people were put to death in 2014 which was the fewest in 20 years. And 2014 marked a nearly 40 year low in the number of new criminals placed on death row. While the method of execution may have changed, ...read more

    The Big Idea: God wants us to be faithful him in our words and actions, even in difficult situations.

    Of Christians put to death for their faith in the second century, perhaps no account is as striking as the story of Polycarp. Polycarp (A.D. 70-155) is bishop of Smyrna and a godly man who knows the apostle John personally. When urged by the Roman proconsul to renounce Christ, Polycarp responds ...read more

    This is a Men's Day sermon for an inner-city church facing issues of poverty and legalization of marijuana in their community. It looks at David and his meeting with Ahimelek. David's lack of integrity had painful consequences.

    Becoming Men Of Integrity 1 Samuel 21:1-9 Luke 13:31-35 11/8/2019 When you hear the word integrity, what other words come into your mind.
