  • Funeral For Elderly Christian Lady

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Feb 16, 2016
     | 24,689 views

    This lesson is a compilation of some biblical thoughts. In this case the family offered little insight into this woman's past. She was a faithful servant of God.

    Song (as Family Enters -- Mansions Over the Hilltop Song -- Old Rugged Cross 2 Timothy 4.6-8 6 For I am already being poured out as a drink offering, and the time of my departure has come. 7 I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. 8 Henceforth there is laid ...read more

  • Be Supportive Of Other Churches Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Oct 30, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,847 views

    If we serve the Lord with the impure motive of personal gain, instead of with the intention of leading people to faith in Christ, then we can become self-focused, critical and judgmental of other believers and other churches.

    The apostle Paul once admonished the Philippians, “Let nothing be done through selfish ambition or conceit, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem others better than himself. Let each of you look out not only for his own interests, but also for the interests of others” (Philippians 2:3-4). In ...read more

  • Monday - Cursing Fig Trees And Cleansing Temples Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Mar 7, 2022
     | 3,577 views

    On Monday of Jesus' final week of earthly life, he cursed the fig tree and cleansed the temple. Both activities symbolized God's judgment on the fruitless religion of Israel. As disciple of Christ, we must be faithful and fruitful, and not cause others to stumble.

    A. Years ago, I decided to “edjumacate” myself by reading all the classic novels. 1. I decided to start with Herman Melville’s classic novel Moby Dick. 2. I didn’t get very far, because I just couldn’t take long chapter after long chapter describing the whaling harpoon – you can only say so much ...read more

  • Who Is The Greatest Person In This Church?

    Contributed by Alvan Lewis on Mar 7, 2022
     | 1,769 views

    A close look at what Jesus considered greatness.

    Who is the Greatest? Who is the greatest person in this church? That should be an easy question to answer if we use our culture’s criteria of greatness. In our society greatness is decided with three measuring rods: • Money • Beauty and • Brains All we would need to do is submit our financial ...read more

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Sep 5, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,628 views

    This series focuses on how we as Christians adopt a mentality towards others that hinders the Holy Spirit from using us freely to minister to others.

    An Elitist Mentality Part 1 Scripture: Mark 9:33-40; Gal. 2:11-14 The title of my message this morning is “An Elitist Mentality.” One of my co-workers, after discovering that I love to play golf, asked me if I was a “member” of any golf clubs. The person who asked me just assumed that I was ...read more

  • A Child-Like Humility

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 11, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,518 views

    If you want to be first, learn to be last!

    A CHILD-LIKE HUMILITY. Mark 9:30-37. 1. CONTEXT (Mark 8:29-34). On the back of Peter’s famous confession of faith (Mark 8:29), Jesus began to teach His disciples about His upcoming death and resurrection (Mark 8:31). About this the disciples were, to say the least, slow on the uptake: ...read more

  • A Sequence Of Sayings

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Aug 12, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,771 views

    A reward for those who welcome Jesus' disciples. A warning for those who lead them astray.

    A SEQUENCE OF SAYINGS. Mark 9:38-50. 1. John informed Jesus of “one casting out devils in Your name; and we forbad him because he follows not with us” (Mark 9:38). Perhaps John’s jealousy was fired by the failure of the nine members of the team who - whilst Jesus, Peter, James and John ...read more

  • All, For The One (2006)

     | 1,009 views

    Their effectiveness as Jesus' disciples would not happen by default. They would always have to work at it and pray about it.

    ALL, FOR THE ONE Text: Mark 9:38-50 “One of the highlights of the college freshman biology class was the monthly feeding of a caged rattlesnake kept in the laboratory. One time, the entire class gathered around the cage and, in complete silence, watched as the feeding took place. ...read more

  • Hearing Problems

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 19, 2023
     | 983 views

    Are we afraid to ask what Jesus has in store for us, of what our future following him might look like?

    This was a very difficult sermon to prepare because this passage doesn’t really apply to you, at least not the way most preachers spin it. I can just hear the disciples arguing over who’s the greatest, can’t you? like a bunch of little boys bragging in the playground at recess, or kids ...read more

  • Stumbing Along

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 19, 2023
     | 1,172 views

    Unexamined assumptions can cause us to stumble over things we don't even notice.

    It’s a little disconcerting, sitting down to write a sermon on a passage that you’ve already preached on twice, to find that neither time did you say what you’d planned to say. Of course, only preachers have that problem... Maybe only 60-something preachers have that problem. But more generally, ...read more

  • Cut It Out

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 21, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,499 views

    We are always trying to blame our sin on something else - on someone else, on society, on circumstances. But Jesus says that what makes us sin is part of ourselves.

    I stopped watching TV news three or four years ago. But you have to know what's going on, somehow, so there are a few sources I've come to trust. But guess what? They're just as depressing as TV news. Because what is actually happening is worse than what you might imagine if you stayed ...read more

    The rewards for our faithfulness to Jesus is exceedingly abundant beyond measure. I give my permission for this sermon to be used in its fullness for the glory of God.

  • The Lesson "ears To Hear" Teaches Us

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Aug 8, 2023
     | 1,599 views

    "He that ears to hear, let him hear.” Why did Jesus say this about the purpose of parables and what does it mean for us today?

    I am going to open the message with the first part of John 16:13 from the Amplified Bible. “But when He, the Spirit of Truth (the Truth-giving spirit) comes, He will guide you into all the Truth (the whole, full Truth).” During the Last Supper, which is recorded in John chapters 13 through 17, ...read more

  • The Sound Of Freedom: God's Command To Love And Protect Children Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Aug 14, 2023
     | 1,472 views

    Will children be taught biblical values or gender ideology? What is right and wrong? How will we explain it to our children?

    The hit film “The Sound of Freedom” has grossed over 155 million dollars at the box office, hitting on the key issue of human trafficking occurring at massive levels across the world. How should Christians treat children? That is a key point found in our scripture today. The Bible tells us that ...read more
