  • The Good, The Bad, & The Snuggly

    Contributed by Jonathan Meyer on Nov 1, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,219 views

    Jesus points to our salvation by the Father's grace alone, not by our works--first through a parable, and then in action as He welcomes children (even infants).

    The Word of God that engages us today is our Gospel reading from Luke 18. And in our Gospel reading, Jesus challenges the presuppositions of those around Him. Our Gospel reading is really broken down into two sections—and quite often you’ll get a sermon on one or the other, as if ...read more

     | 1,929 views

    When Paul said to give thanks in everything he meant it, and he did just that; thanks in persecution, thanks in every difficulty; thanks for His fellow Christians and workmen. Thanks and rejoicing go together and they are considered in this message.

  • To See Or Not To See? That Is The Question.

    Contributed by Herb Pulse on May 14, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 1,347 views

    What is it that you and I see when we go to God? Do we see ourselves through God’s lens?

    All seems very wonderful on the surface. How wonderful it is for men to pray! How wonderful as in the days of old when we first read of how men began to call upon the name of the Lord in Genesis 4:26. So now we see in Luke 18 the telling from Jesus of two men, two prayers. The declaration being ...read more

  • "Can You Hear Me Now?” (Sermon 2 Of 3 On Prayer)

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Jun 8, 2023
     | 1,314 views

    Pastors do a lot of preaching on prayer because they know how important it is to us Christians.

    But many preachers are guilty of telling Christians they should pray, but they do not tell them from the scriptures HOW TO PRAY EFFECTIVELY. The fact is, if we cannot pray effective prayers why bother to pray at all. If you ask the average Christian do they know how to pray they would tell you ...read more

  • 30th Sunday-- The Pharisee And The Tax Collector

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Sep 26, 2022
     | 880 views

    Dorotheos said that the Pharisee was doing the right thing when he thanked God for giving him the ability to do good—as should they (the monks) themselves. The Pharisee only did one thing wrong: he passed judgment on the tax collector.

    Our Gospel today begins with some challenging words, “to those who were convinced of their own righteousness and despised everyone else.” There’s an old joke about a psychiatrist who is seeing a new patient for the first time. The psychiatrist says, “I’m not aware of your issue, so maybe you ...read more

  • Am I A Whitewashed Christian?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Oct 14, 2022
     | 1,293 views

    A Christian is one who follows Christ and has taken on the instructions, directions, guidance, and characteristics that Christ gave to us. Secondly, what is whitewashed? It is the concealment or covering of flaws, failures, blemishes, or unpleasant facts.

    This is the story of two men who prayed. Undoubtedly many have read or at least heard of this story. So why did I title this sermon "Am I a Whitewashed Christian? Well first, let me ask this, what is a Christian? A Christian is one who follows Christ and has taken on the instructions, ...read more

  • Righteous Or Sinner?

    Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Oct 17, 2022
     | 1,300 views

    Do we use our knowledge of God's word to criticize others, or to become more and more humble about our own sins? Let’s learn that we are all still sinners and that God alone justifies. Let’s discuss self-righteousness and self-justification in Luke 18:9-14.

    Christians must live in unity with each other and with a humble understanding of ourselves before God by living a holy and sanctified life.

    THE WORLD IS CATERING TO “SELF.” THE WORLD IS WORKING HARD TO ERODE AND DISINTEGRATE THE FAMILY.
