    One that calls himself a follower of Jesus is not necessarily a follower of Jesus.

    Count the Cost Luke 14:25-33 Jesus never promised that following Him is easy. Again and again, he told all who would listen that discipleship might cost them everything, even their lives. This morning’s passage from Luke 14:25-33 is one of these passages. What does it really mean to be a follower ...read more

    When Jesus is telling us that following Him means hating everything and everyone else, He uses strong language.

    Twenty-third Sunday in Course Today’s Gospel is so unnerving, even shocking, that we might in our meditation forget about the other readings. The lessons we can learn from the wisdom books of Scripture are good foundations for our appreciation of the teachings of Jesus. I like to think of our ...read more

    Where is the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ today? What is the cost of preaching that message?

    Where is that message today? This is a two-fold message. First, the call to preach the Gospel. Second, the cost of preaching the Gospel.

    One of the things that we are impressed by today, is numbers.

Many of us would admit that we have eaten at places where the parking lot was filled with cars, but we were not impressed with the food or the service. We make that ...read more

    Here is my adaptation of a sermon contributed by Tim Zingale, Sermon Central, Sept. 2007, "The Rabbit". The focus of my adaptation is the declining vitality of the universal Christian church resulting from having lost sight of Christ, the cornerstone of God's redemptive church.

    (If you have found this sermon helpful, please visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info) One day, a young disciple of Christ who wanted to become everything that God had in mind for him visited the home of an elderly Christian seeking his advice. He had heard that ...read more
