    When we lose sight of ourselves and the me syndrome and focus on our ministry to the world, the cares of this world grow dim.

    Go light your world and lose your cares The objective: To teach principles, that if applied, will free us from the prisons of despair we have created. In reaching out to others, God reaches out to us. Theme Song: Go light your world, by Kathy Troccoli A. There is a condition ...read more

    The Thanksgiving That Doesn't Count

    Contributed by Steve Miller on Jan 4, 2005

    Real thanksgiving is done with the right attitude. The prayer of the Pharisee was arrogant and despising toward the Publican, therefore it did not count. This sermon was developed for a community Thanksgiving service.

    The Thanksgiving that Doesn’t Count STEVE MILLER, November 23, 2004 Luke 18:9-14 (NKJV) Do you remember the television commercial for Citibank with the two ladies in the grocery store?

    You can be a good person and still die lost and go to hell. You can be a bad person and die saved and go to heaven.

    LUKE 18:9-14 “A GOOD MAN LOST – A BAD MAN SAVED” A) When Jesus preached and taught among men on earth, He found that there were some men which trusted in themselves that they were righteous! * It was to them that He spoke this parable ...

    One of the greatest parables ever told was the story of the Pharisee and the Tax collector. The story is great because it has plot twists and leads to a surprise ending. The word righteousness means “right-standing”. To be righteous means to be in right

    "The Real Sinner's Prayer"

    based on 84 ratings
     | 13,372 views

    In the parable of the Pharisee and the Publican, we see that you can’t impress God. Having "religion" doesn’t impress God. The Publican gives the REAL "Sinner’s Prayer".

    “The REAL Sinner’s Prayer” Luke 18:9-14 INTRODUCTION: Jesus loved to speak in parables. They grabbed people’s attention. If Jesus said, “Once upon a time, there was a man who ….”, then everybody stopped to listen to the story Jesus was about to tell. It’s like … when I stop to tell a joke … ...read more

    This message explores the contrast of the Pharisee and the tax collector, helping us see why humility matters.

    “Respond Humbly” (Luke 18:9-14) Humility. It seems to be a distant character trait in our world today, doesn’t it? Even in our circle of churches, pride can creep in and become way too evident in our midst. Sometimes when I look around at our Christian culture, it reminds of this video… [Show ...read more

    We can’t go around saying, “Thank God that’s not me” because in truth it is us. Just like us, the people who are out there, people who perhaps make us uncomfortable are sinners who need to know the grace of God through Jesus Christ in their lives. The o

    The true “righteous” person is not someone who flawlessly observes all the “rules”, but someone who begs for mercy and is accepted by God--despite having plenty of human imperfections. To illustrate this, Jesus tells a story of two people who are polar o

    In preparation for this sermon, I did my taxes last week…so I have lots to say about that tax collector! How do we get to Heaven? By human effort? By keeping the rules?

    The parable of the Pharisee and the Tax Collector. Justification with God what does it comprise of? But wait it appears that Humility is foundational to right relationships with God.

    Jesus had a way of getting to the heart of the matter; he had a way of taking a situation and telling a story to address matters that needed addressing, he used parables those stories about a made up situation, to get to a point that he knew his followers or would be followers could do with some ...read more
