  • Launch Out

    Contributed by Bill Butsko on Jan 27, 2007
     | 6,458 views

    Our handling of the trials and tribulations we encounter in life is a direct reflection of our faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

    Text: When He had stopped speaking, He said to Simon, “Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch” (Luke 5:4). How many of you have ever gone fishing? I am one who likes to fish. As a little fellow, my father would take me fishing in the reservoirs between the hills of Southern ...read more

  • People, Like Pennies

    Contributed by Timothy Darling on Feb 2, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,314 views

    Wealth in our lives is measured in many ways. Pennies are a small measure of money, but Benjamin Franklin would have told you that a penny saved is a penny earned. Friends in our lives are another kind of wealth that we may not value highly enough. Wherev

    People, like pennies Luke 5:27-32 I watched a hidden camera show some time back. The director had taken two rolls of pennies and dropped them randomly but obviously along a half a city block. Then he filmed people’s reactions. People noticed, but they did not stoop to pick up the pennies. Some ...read more

     | 5,312 views

    If we want to be Jesus’ disciples, we must accept his supreme authority as Lord over every part of our lives.

    In today’s readings we have 2 examples of ordinary people coming face to face with the power of God. Firstly, we have Isaiah’s powerful and compelling vision of an encounter with God in the Temple, in which God’s might and majesty are powerfully displayed. Isaiah must have been completely ...read more

  • "Fishing For People"

    If we heed Christ’s call on our lives there will be a great catch.

    Luke 5:1-11 “Fishing for People” When I was a young boy, my dad and I would take off on a Saturday morning to a nearby lake. It looked more like a brown stagnant swamp than a lake, but I suppose it was a lake. We’d rent a small fishing boat, buy some crickets for bait and go out fishing for ...read more

    Follow-Jesus-at-any-cost kind of questions

    Once while Jesus was standing beside the lake of Gennesaret, and the crowd was pressing in on him to hear the word of God, 2he saw two boats there at the shore of the lake; the fishermen had gone out of them and were washing their nets. 3He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, ...read more

    Redemptive Nature of God in our lives

    Last week I attended a seminar called “This Holy Mystery” the taking of Communion. One of the interesting facts that we discussed was the accepting of communion. In other words who can and who has the right to take communion. In the United Methodist Church we practice the open communion in that we ...read more

  • Career Change Series

    Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Feb 5, 2007
    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,863 views

    God reveals himself to us in common, mundane times. When he does, we become aware of God’s holiness and our sinfulness and we are forever changed.

    Luke 5:1-11 “Career Change” INTRODUCTION Where do we go to encounter God? This question has been debated and attempts made to discover the answer for centuries. Some people have followed the example of John the Baptist and traveled the deserts and wildernesses of the world. In the middle ages, ...read more

  • Experience Versus Obedience In Faith

    Contributed by Michael Trask on Feb 6, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,939 views

    We put a high premium on our experience in life. This limits us and also prevents us from the greater experience and reality which Jesus calls us to enter. Peter was "experienced" in fishing. But Jesus would take him beyond his experience. Us too.

    You are talking to someone about something, something that you know is true with all of your heart. And right in the middle, of making your most convincing point, they stop you and they say those words that bring a sudden end to all discussion. “ That has not been my experience!” They say. ...read more

  • An Amazing Catch

    Contributed by Gaither Bailey on Feb 8, 2007
     | 2,300 views

    We will never witness miracles by living in disobedience to God’s call, by doing nothing or by continuing to do what has not worked in the past. We are not called to the safety of the shoreline; but to “put out into deep water, attempting the impossible!

    Luke 5: 1 – 11 An Amazing Catch Intro: Normally, when your hear someone talk about a person who is really fussy about the way their hair looks, you think they are talking about a woman. Well, I have a confession to make. I was born with this straight thin hair and I always wanted it to be wavy ...read more

    Peter meets the Holy, and wonders what he should do.

    Welcome to round 637 of “Fights over stuff that’s not as important as everyone thinks it is.” Older translations have Jesus telling Simon he will now be a “fisher of men,” while newer ones say he will catch or fish for people. Folks who prefer the older version point to the rhythm of the words and ...read more

    the change occurs when Jesus gets in the boat.

    Luke 5: 1-11 ...And Simon answered unto him, Master, we have toiled all night, and have taken nothing, nevertheless, at thy word I will let down the net, and when they had done this, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes, and their net brake. And they beckoned unto their partners, which were ...read more

  • You Gonna Fish? Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Nov 26, 2007
    based on 36 ratings
     | 27,452 views

    Up until this "fishing trip" with Jesus, Peter has only had a casual relationship with Christ. On this day, Jesus challenged him with the question: "Are you gonna talk, or are you gonna fish?"

    OPEN: There’s an old joke about two fishermen out in a boat. The day was calm and the lake was isolated enough that they were the only fishermen there. The first man baited his hook, threw it into the water and watched the bobber bob on the waves. Suddenly there was a terrific explosion just a ...read more
