    Potholes Series

    Contributed by Tim Smith on May 28, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 13,635 views

    We’ve all experienced potholes in the road of life that either slow us down, delay our journey or sometimes totally disrupt it. Potholes are anything in life that keep us from moving forward.

    Potholes Mark 8:27-35 Bumpy streets are so commonplace in New Orleans that residents have taken some extreme measures to draw attention to particularly bothersome potholes. There was the birthday party in New Orleans East for a 5-foot-wide pothole on Cannes Street. They had cake, balloons and a ...read more

    Roadwork Series

    Contributed by Tim Smith on May 28, 2015
     | 4,886 views

    When you think of it, roadwork is a pretty good analogy of the journey of faith. God accepts us where we are but wants us to become like his Son. For most of us, that means there’s serious roadwork to do.

    Road Work Mark 8:34-38 My wife and I used to live Uptown on Octavia Street between Constance and Laurel just two blocks from Tchoupitoulas. At that time, the Port of Orleans was redoing Tchoupitoulas. When the street was dug up, they found that many of the feeder drainage pipes from the ...read more

    Incomplete Sight

     | 10,290 views

    The best things in life take time. Our relationships are like that. In order to have a meaningful and lasting relationship, we must spend time building that relationship. You can't get to know someone overnight. You must invest the time.

    Mark 8:22-26 22 And they came to Bethsaida. And they brought a blind man to Jesus and implored Him to touch him. 23 Taking the blind man by the hand, He brought him out of the village; and after spitting on his eyes and laying His hands on him, He asked him, “Do you see ...read more

    Loose Your Life To Save It

    We are not called to a superficial Christianity. We are called to be Christ's disciples. We are called to discipleship.

    “Life is precarious, and life is precious. Don’t presume you will have it tomorrow, and don’t waste it today.” —John Piper Losers Keepers Mark 8:27-38 Peter’s Confession of Christ 27 Jesus went out, along with His disciples, to the villages of Caesarea ...read more

    Acquire The Vision Of Jesus

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 15, 2014
     | 2,639 views

    Nobody can be like Christ and attract others to the community of faith without being filled with His compassion.

    Thursday of 6th Week in Course 2014 Lumen Fidei "Get behind me, you adversary! For you are not on the side of God, but of men." I suppose St. Peter, who was just plain Simon Peter at the time, was confused by what Jesus had just said to him. After all, he was supposed to be the ...read more

    Who Do You Say That I Am?

    Contributed by Scott Bradford on Aug 25, 2015
     | 6,177 views

    This message (not a complete manuscript) wrestles with the question that Jesus asked His disciples but also places it in the context of where it was asked?

    In the Movie Talladega Nights there is a supper scene, I have “edited” this a little bit. (Characters: Ricky, Carly, Cal, Walker, Texas Ranger, Chip the father-in-law) Show the video if you are brave, but maybe edit it. “Carly: Supper’s ready! C’mon ya’ll. ...read more

    A sermon about the REAL JESUS.

    "This Whole Scripture is Scandalous" Mark 8:27-38 On Thursday at about one O'clock in the afternoon a counselor along with two social workers from the East Ridge School system came to see me at the church. They looked really nervous and worried. They came to us because they knew that you ...read more

    The Key To Happiness And Eternal Life

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Sep 12, 2015
     | 3,776 views

    Our attitude as children of God must centre on a life that is lived in him. In return for his sacrifice we need to make good use of the opportunities Christ sends our way.

    The scene in Mark 8:27-38 is the climax of the first half of Mark’s Gospel. This first half focuses on miracles and gradually reveals Jesus as the Messiah. The second half explains the nature of that Messiahship and has far more teaching and far fewer miracles. Caesarea Philippi was located ...read more

    Introduction to "Discovering Jesus," a series exploring the life of Christ from the book of Mark.

    Introduction I hadn’t really thought about it until just recently, but for all of my adult life I have been on a quest. The goal of my quest is to ascertain, apprehend and acquiesce to the person known, in English, as the Lord Jesus. I have wanted to go beyond my immediate, personal and ...read more

    Dominant Thought: Following Jesus means being willing to accept His plans for self-denial, and not being ashamed of the Lord Whose lifestyle and mission is contrary to the world's mode of thinking

    A guy was on a business trip and thought it would be nice to come home with a little gift for his wife. He stopped off at a perfume counter in a nice store. “How about some perfume?” he asked the clerk. She showed him a bottle of really nice perfume - $120. “Oooh, that’s ...read more

    Who Do You Say Jesus Is? Series

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Aug 14, 2014
     | 4,958 views

    The rejection of Jesus comes (painfully) from those who represent God (teachers, elders, etc.). This presents us with a challenge: Do we lead people to like us or to worship God? If it's all about Him, then we must be willing to give everything to Him!

    Who do you say Jesus is? Mark 8:27-33 Introduction - Jesus is demonstrated in this book as a “servant” -- Key verse: Mark 10:45, “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” - IMP: ...read more

     | 3,879 views

    In order to be a true Christian, one must embrace both the Person of Jesus and the Work of Jesus on the cross and in his resurrection.

    Bi-Polar Peter (Mark 8:27-33) 1. The term “Bi-Polar” often brings to mind a condition many suffer with, previously known as being “manic-depressive.” 2. But the term Bi-Polar often refers to a set of two extremes. Two sets of bi-polar tastes make up the foundation of ...read more

    Deny Yourself

    Jesus said some radical things, radical things in his day and in ours. One of those things was, "Deny Yourself."

    Back in my teenage years I did volunteer work with the Harris County Emergency Corps. I rode and drove ambulances and that kind of thing. Though it was a volunteer group, working with them had its perks. As part of our needed fund-raising efforts, we staffed the first aid station at various events ...read more

    A perspective on Mark 8: 27-38. Our text today marks the end of Jesus’ Galilean ministry and the beginning of his journey to Jerusalem. It describes a transition period, a time of reflection, a time of learning, a time to gather strength and move on.

    Mark 8: 27-38 ON THE WAY WITH JESUS When we look through the Gospel of Mark we find our text in the middle of his Gospel. He has put it there for a reason. Our text today marks the end of Jesus’ Galilean ministry and the beginning of his journey to Jerusalem. It describes a transition ...read more

    Your identity in Christ. Whom you have become by the reason of the new birth. The real you in Christ.

    "What about you he asked "Who do you say I am?" Peter said "You are the Messiah". (Mark 8:29). Jesus is interested in our knowledge about him. He yearns to hear us declare our understanding of His personality. What will be your answer, when you hear the Lord say to you "who ...read more
