  • God And Children

    Contributed by William Mouser on Sep 24, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,203 views

    In contrast to the ambition to acquire the applause and approval of men, Jesus turns his disciples toward the powerless -- toward children -- as exemplars of Himself, His Father, and the ones his disciples should seek to serve.

    Psalm 54, Wisdom 1:16 - 2:22, James 3:16-4:6, Mark 9:30-37 Apostles, Christians, and Children Sometimes, the disciples of Jesus don’t come off very well in the gospels, and today’s Gospel lesson is one of those times. Jesus tells them again, as he is doing more and more often at this point in ...read more

    A sermon about greed, materialism and the Prosperity Gospel.

    Time magazine’s cover story this month was entitled, “Does God Want You to Be Rich?” The header said, “A growing number of Protestant evangelicals raise a joyful Yes!” The article opens with the story of George Adams, a man from Ohio who had lost his factory job.

  • The Hidden World Of Service

    Contributed by Michael Trask on Sep 25, 2006

     | 4,392 views

    The contrast couldn’t be more stark. Jesus describes his ultimate act of service while the disciples argue over which of them will be the greatest! This sermon stealthily plunges the listener into this contrast; then pulls them out on the right side.

    My dear friends in Christ, I want to tell you about something that I didn’t really begin to figure out until I was about 24. Many of you figured it out long before you reached that age; some of you have not figured it out yet. But when someone finally does learn it, and it begins to sink ...read more

    Jesus talks about growing in stature, but he is not talking about height. He is talking about growing in servanthood.

    Growing in the Right Direction Mark 9:30-37 September 24, 2006 Depending on whom you talk to and who does the measuring, there is any number of different ways to measure a human being. If we wanted to get into an existential discussion of humanity, we would probably remember these famous maxims. ...read more

  • On The Road With Jesus

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Sep 28, 2006
     | 2,715 views

    Jesus taught the disciples but they did not always understand! This short homily encourages listeners to ask questions; it also reminds us that God knows about everything we do; and that is both comforting and challenging.

    Are you sitting comfortably? Then I’ll begin! Of course, it is always likely that God’s word will make us uncomfortable! When we turn to God’s word, seeking the voice of God, there is always plenty to hear; and this short Bible event is packed full of God’s wisdom, and God’s call to us. Jesus ...read more

    In one magnificent moment Jesus painted a lasting portait of greatness that demonstrated and mandated our attitude towards children.

    “Doing It to Jesus” Mark 9:33-37 Like a good carpenter Jesus never missed an opportunity to drive the nail home. He capitalized on making teachable moments out of the ordinary scenes of life.

  • Who's The Greatest?

    Contributed by George Durham on Mar 2, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,188 views

    The world emphasizes the importance of putting yourself first, and being the greatest. Jesus' disciples argued about who among them was the greatest, the most loved, the most important.

    The Greatest of the Kingdom Mark 9:30-37 As they walk along, Jesus tells the disciples what to expect in the coming days. He says, "The Son of Man is being handed over to the hands of men, & they will kill him; & when he is killed, on the third day he will rise again" (Mark 9:31). Now, ...read more

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jul 30, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,707 views

    Faith is not about a church doctrine or power or privilege. It is about service to others-service to the point of sacrifice. It can be expressed equally through individual actions and experiences.

    What is the one human quality that drives us to success while causing all sorts of problems at the same time? It is ambition. Ambition is one of the driving forces in our lives. It propels us to excel in our jobs. It pushes us to reach our goals. It can give us a reason for living. Ambition is one ...read more

    Contributed by T.j. Conwell on Aug 24, 2014
     | 7,142 views

    Being greatest in the Kingdom of God is measured by how we serve one another, in our service to God. This is why Jesus is adamant about welcoming even the LEAST of those around us who need to experience Christ's mercy and grace.

    Lord, help my unbelief Mark 9:14-37 - 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: What God says to us here is critical ...read more

     | 8,502 views

    There's a difference between pity & compassion. Pity is a mere emotion; compassion compels action. God wants us to exhibit this true compassion, the same kind He had for a lost and dying world, which compels us to DO something for the lost.

     | 6,449 views

    We all want to feel like we matter in some way, and sometimes that can take the form of “other people do not matter.” Jesus taught that everyone matters. Success in his eyes is very different from the world’s view of success.

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 23, 2015
     | 6,011 views

    The call to be salty is a call for us to persevere as real disciples, who are inwardly pure. Who’ve held nothing back in following Jesus. It’s a call for us to be real disciples who welcome others and who glory in each other’s success.
