    It is ours to run to Jesus if all the running was ours, but the real truth is that the Lord runs to us.

    HE RAN AND HE RAN . Text: Mark 5:6 “But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him”. Luke 15:20 “But when he was a yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion and he ran and embraced him, and kissed him”. INTRODUCTION These two texts taken from ...read more

    Life is lived between being found and being lost. What does it mean to be found?

    Living Between Being Lost and Being Found Luke 15:4-32, Matthew 9:18-26, John 4:1-22, and John 8:1-11 There’s an enormous hunger for God in this world. Often people feel the hunger, but they don’t know what they are really hungry for. "I’m hungry, but I don’t know for what," we say as we ...read more

    El capitulo 15 de Lucas se ha llamado el departamento de búsqueda de objetos perdidos de Dios. En estos 32 versículos, Jesús usa 4 ilustraciones que hablan del perdido y el deseo de Dios de salvarlos y restaurarlos a una relación con Él.

    El Hijo Perdido Lucas 15:11-24 “11También dijo: Un hombre tenía dos hijos; 12y el menor de ellos dijo a su padre: Padre, dame la parte de los bienes que me corresponde; y les repartió los bienes. 13No muchos días después, juntándolo todo el hijo menor, se fue lejos a una provincia apartada; y allí ...read more

    This sermon targets those who although have (had) a relationship with Christ, other things have taken priority over their walk with God.

    Intro: It’s the most wonderful time of the year. No the weather may not be exactly the way that we would prefer. But the month of December would have to be my favorite month and yes I do despise the cold weather. However, there is nothing like the city and countryside being lit up and the ...read more

    A Thanksgiving message about filling up on food, fun, and other good things

    I have entitled this morning’s message “Fill ‘Er Up” because that is what many us will be doing this week. We will not only fill up our bellies with Turkey but we will also fill up several other things with something other than food. Many of us will begin this week by filling up Monday and ...read more

    The Lost Sheep

     | 5,864 views

    When Jesus compares us to sheep, it may not be flattering, but it is apt.

    Sheep don’t have a very good image, do they? If I asked what your favourite animal was, I doubt very much that any of you would say “sheep”. Our view of sheep is somewhat negative. We don’t say positive things like “Oh, he’s as strong as a sheep” or “She’s as wise as a sheep”. How about “as ...read more

    The parable of the lost son demonstrates the impact of hard-heartedness on relationships, families and communities.

    Twenty years ago, I visited the city of Calcutta on work. I was looking forward to the visit because it was the city my father grew up in, and being a typical Bengali, he was very proud of his city. But I was also looking forward to the trip because there was a little old lady in Calcutta that I ...read more

    Most of us in Church relate to the older brother if we are honest. The father loves us as much as the prodigal and invites into the party.

    Luke 15:11-32 June 20, 2004 The Older Brother We’ve been looking at the story of the Prodigal Son for many weeks now – we began by talking for 4 weeks about our call to become the Father in the story. But last week I talked about how taking up the call to become the father without dealing ...read more

    Ask yourself the Questions; Where did Jesus look? Then ask; Where should I look? Finally; How should I look?

    LOOKING FOR THE LOST IN ALL THE WRONG PLACES Text: Luke 15:3-10 Intro: There was a song some time ago entitled "looking for love in all the wrong places" People do need love, but are often looking in the wrong place for it.

    When the U.S. left Godly paths and principles and wrote and legislated God out of existence, we merely gained prodigal freedom. If we are ever to regain Godly freedom, we must return to our beginning foundation: God!

    Shoes that need to be worn as a Christian.

    PUTTING ON YOUR SHOES Luke 15:22 and Ephesians 6:15 Our daily conversations are often filled with expressions concerning the use of our foot or feet.

    Christ welcomed "the wrong crowd." Is our church doing the same?

    “THE CHURCH THAT WELCOMES SINNERS” Luke 15:1-10 Have you ever visited a church, and not felt welcome? A few years ago, I went to an area Reformation service. I had to drive an hour to get there, and I was running late. I almost couldn’t find the place, but I did, and I had to park pretty far ...read more
