    How To Reach Outward...

    Contributed by Charles Wilkerson on Oct 21, 2003

    In a community where 40% of the people don’t give a rip about church what are we to do? How are we to approach them.

    The 1950’s was a boom time for the Church in the U.S. and the favorite game for believers was “Hide and Seek”. Congregations would hide behind their walls and stained glass windows and those outside would seek us out. If you hadn’t noticed the world doesn’t play “Hide and Seek” anymore. Today ...read more

    You Can Go Home Again

     | 5,593 views

    The saying "You can’t go home again" is not true when speaking spiritually.

    There is a saying: “You can’t go back home again.” But in this parable Jesus tells us of a young man who did indeed go home. After a long and grueling absence from his father he finally made his way homeward. You too can come back home—no matter how long you’ve been away; no matter how far down ...read more

    Man should follow the steps toward genuine repentance.

    CHANGING ONE’S DIRECTION IN LIFE Luke 15:11-24 Building a relationship with God begins with the acceptance of the fact that our sinfulness destroyed that relationship with Him. Man’s sinfulness is the barrier that keeps us from having a personal and fulfilled relationship with ...read more

    God never gives up on his children.

    THE FORGIVING FATHER A. As much as we like to believe that our Heavenly Father is a God of COMPASSION, MERCY, and GRACE, there are still some Christians who have difficulty accepting God’s complete FORGIVENESS. 1. There are those who look at their lives as being so STAINED with SIN that ...read more

    We hear about the prodigal son but what about his older brother. He is giving out a cry that is also coming from our communities. Be we can’t hear them inside our church walls.

    What About Me? Luke 15:25-32 You have always heard the story of the Prodigal Son and how he: · Got tired of living at home · Decided to take his inheritance and leave · Spent all he had on loose living · “Came to Himself” – realized what he did · Went back home to a welcoming father · A feast was ...read more

    A series on the Lost

    What’s It Like To Being Lost? Luke 15:11-24 Intro: There is one thing Christians and non-Christians agree on – they both dislike evangelism. The word alone conjures up images of “in your face” confrontation. Therefore Christians usually avoid gospel showdowns and most of the non-Christians are ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,713 views

    The lesson from these parables is that Jesus DOES give up on some people, and that only seeing it in this way is there any good news. If you think the message of these stories is that God never gives up on anyone, I suggest you have gotten it backwards.
