     | 21,920 views

    This is a love story, pure and simple. It is not a cheap love story like we see portrayed in the soap operas everyday. This account is a deep heart-felt love that is not infused with any physical desire that seems to be necessary in our day and age to q

    Will The Real Gospel Please Stand Up

    Contributed by Andrew Hill on Mar 2, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,420 views

    This is a revised and simplified version of an earlier message. The purpose is to help people understand what the true gospel is.

    Title: Will the real Gospel please stand up? There seems to be a lot of confusion today about what the real Gospel is. The word gospel means good news. That’s something to be really happy about. But a lot of the gospels I hear about today don’t sound like good news to me. One of the Gospels that ...read more

    Though our own lives may seem insignificant or confusing, God is able to take them and use them for His great purpose

    He single-handedly saved the Jewish nation on several occasions. His life foreshadows that of Jesus, and he’s like Him in many ways. He predicted Jesus would come. He makes an appearance in the Bible many years after his death. His body is buried by God himself – an honor we read about no one ...read more

    The pride test is actually a three part test. We already covered the first part when we talked about selfish pride (Pride Test, Part 1). The second part of the test is about presumptive pride. That’s where our text takes us today.

    1. Presumptive pride is futile 2. Presumptive pride is arrogant 3. Presumptive pride is sinful Well, here we are, standing at the edge of a New Year. People use this time of the year for different things, don’t they? Of course, some people just use the New Year as an excuse to party. But most ...read more

     | 5,595 views

    This is the first of a two-part series on the parable of the lost son. Heading into the New Year, this first message looks closely at the story of the lost son and the good news we have of a fresh start.

    When God Doesn’t Want to Hear It Luke 15:11-32 I sat at my desk staring blankly at the screen with a bit of a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach. I didn’t know exactly where to begin, and I wasn’t even sure God wanted to hear it. I had just scrolled through the pages of a Word document where ...read more

    40th in a series on Ephesians. We grieve the Holy Spirit when we harm the unity of the body of Christ.

    Last week after the message, someone came up to me and said, “Those were some really good jokes in your sermon today.” But when I asked them about the main idea of the message they couldn’t remember a thing. So this morning, you’re going to get just a plain old boring message without any jokes. I ...read more

    Jesus has not changed in 2,000 years. He is still passionate about His temple. The temple of God is no longer a building, it is His people. God no longer dwells in a temple made by hands, He lives in us, and His passion, His zeal is the same today as it w

    At a church-sponsored rally for census involvement. Census taking may seem invasive, but the information leads toward justice; God is able to use the census for His purposes; and it reminds us of the vast task of redemption to which we are called.

    When Rev. Gray asked me to preach, the answer was easy. I am just about always ready to preach! You know how it is with preachers, especially Baptists: we can come up with a Scripture to cover all occasions, we have an opinion about everything, and we believe that everybody is waiting to hear our ...read more

    Second message from a conference for college-age men on what it means to be a man, God’s man and God’s leader.

    Part 2 (Evening session) This morning we talked about our predicament as men; primarily we centered on two issues. One issue is what we face because of our inheritance from Adam in the sin nature and Adam’s abdication. The other is a bunch of cultural baggage from which we have an extremely ...read more
