    Young people slowly turn away from the Church. They loose interest in Christ. They feel boredom in the preaching of pastors, even a young man had that problem in Mark. A little further walk with Christ could have given him a great light. Where are you today, O young man?

    Lesson 15 Mark 10:17-23 Jesus and Youth in Mark “Remember your Creator in the days of your youth” (Ecclesiastes 12:1). Someone needs to remind them to remember. “How can a young man keep his way pure? By guarding it according to your word.” (Psalm 119:9). “It is good for a man that he bears the ...read more

    When this man was healed, you would have expected a celebration, but instead all he got was confrontation. You would have thought that everyone would have been happy for the blind man. You would have thought this story would have been on the front page of the Jerusalem newspapers.

    This is 2 of 2 sermons that share some common elements. This one addresses the idea that many Christian churches add theology rather than focusing on what scripture teaches us. In short, we need to focus more on being one Christian church rather than ge

    Introduction Baptism has become a part of every believer’s life. At some point, we make the plunge, we’re cleansed from our sins, and take on the name as a Christian. But, Christians, as a whole, cannot agree on the proper way to baptize and the effect that bestows on us. Tonight, I’d like you ...read more

    A young man confusing lust for love unleashes havoc on the Kingdom of David. His actions serve to caution us not to confuse lust for love.

    *2 Samuel 13:1-19* *When Love Turns to Lust* “Absalom, David’s son, had a beautiful sister, whose name was Tamar. And after a time Amnon, David’s son, loved her.

    Max Lucado wrote a very good book by this title which gave me the idea for this series. God loves us the way we are, yet he loves us too much to leave us that way. The heart of Jesus is a listening heart and is lead by the hand of God

     | 11,096 views

    The miracle of a blind man receiving his sight addresses the Problem of Affliction and Healing and that criticism by the Pharisees brought out both negative and positive reaction.

    There’s a saying that ‘There’s none as blind as those who won’t see!’ As Helen Keller said: ‘What would be worse than being born blind? To have sight without vision.’ It’s certainly true in the encounter that Jesus had with the Pharisees on the occasion when He healed a man who had been born ...read more

    Typically, a person's idea of being religious is just going through rituals and practices associated with the faith. In James 1:26-27 God defined what it means to be religious. So regardless of what we think it means we need to learn what God said it is.
