    This sermon challenges our claim to believe. The thought process was started by a wonderful sermon submitted by David Moore entitled The Hard Gospel.

    Sermon for Mark 10:17-31 October 15th 2006 I’m one of people that can’t seem to shut their brain off in the evening. The other night my mind was churning because someone had mentioned to someone that pastor lately had been preaching a “hard” gospel. My puny little mind wandered to a time when I ...read more

    Jesus calls us to a life of discipleship - he doesn’t just want us to "believe in God"

    What counts most in your life? Story: The son of a wealthy man expected to receive a sports car for his graduation. Instead his Dad called him into his study, told him that he loved him and handed him a wrapped-up present. When he opened it, he found it to be a box containing a leather bound ...read more

    "Stuff!"

    based on 8 ratings
     | 5,946 views

    Mark’s gospel tells the story of a man who cannot follow after Jesus because of his "many possessions." Although this man is typically known as rich, Mark tells us he just has a lot of stuff--much like us! Jesus re-defines riches here.

    “That’s Where I Keep All My Stuff” Sermon on Mark 10:17-31 Pentecost +19-B October 15, 2006 Rev. J. Curtis Goforth, O.S.L. Jesus, looking at him, loved him and said, "You lack one thing; go, sell what you own, and give the money to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; then come, ...read more

    The Camel Squeezed Out From Tail To Snout

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Oct 10, 2007
     | 2,889 views

    Jesus call to discipleship is a call of sacrifice. Anything that stands in the way of answering that call must be deserted. This truth is shown through the encounter of Jesus with the rich young ruler.

    Little did I know when I planned this sermon, that we would have a live camel at VBS this year. At any rate, I want to tell you a story. It is the story of the ill-fated Franklin expedition to the Arctic in 1845. That odyssey was a turning point in Arctic exploration because of its well-publicized ...read more

    It was a stewardship Sunday out our church and the lectionary text falls on Mark 10:17-31.

    Mark 10:17-31 17 As he was setting out on a journey, a man ran up and knelt before him, and asked him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” 18 Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good?

    People want a Saviour, but not a Lord; God will only be Saviour and Lord, nothing less.

    PEOPLE ARE WANTING A SAVIOUR – NOT A LORD… BUT GOD WILL ONLY BE SAVIOUR AND LORD – NOTHING LESS LET’S EXPLORE THIS STORY FROM A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE This seems to have been a rather unfair encounter with the rich young man – don’t you think?

    Why do Christians emphasize the importance and centrality of Jesus? Why is there no compromise?

    INTRODUCTION: It’s been said: Why do you Christians place so much emphasis on Jesus? Why are you so “intolerant”? Why can’t you be more accepting and admit that other religions can also know God? Why can’t you Christians believe that people from other religions can be just as morally good as ...read more

    We should know that as a Christian that we are all running a race that we can all win, so why are we settling for second and why are some of us settling for 3rd when we all run and are able to receive the prize.

    Did God Tell You To Stop Running? Mark 10:17-31 17 ¶ And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running, and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? 18 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, ...read more
