    Do I REALLY need Jesus’ sacrifice? Why can’t I just go to God as I am?

    OPEN: In a speech Mark Twain gave before the Society of American Authors in 1900, he said: “I am constructed like everybody else and enjoy a compliment as well as any other fool, but I do… have… another side. I have a WICKED side. Estimable friends who know all about it would tell you and take a ...read more

    In His final remarks to the Hebrew people and us, the writer shares with us some things we are to love and something we are not to love.

    Easter - It Is Wrong

    Contributed by Thomas Bowen on Apr 18, 2009
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,748 views

    The news of Jesus death was wrong or at least incomplete. The news of our death can be wrong too.

    It is Wrong Well here we are. Easter, the day we celebrate the main proof point of the Christian faith. The day when we dress up a little more, attendance is a little higher, when we often make a special effort to make it to a worship service. I had a little bit of dilemma. Most of you know ...read more

    Too Close For Comfort

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Sep 14, 2007
     | 4,326 views

    Jesus confronts our prejudices and comfort levels by exposing how we treat those who are disadvantaged. Our actions speak louder than our professions of faith and faithfulness.

    Throughout my ministry, people have come to me with situations that need resolution in the third person. These people have said to me, “Pastor, I sure wish my friend could have been here today to hear that sermon. He really needed that one.” Often it’s a wife, or a husband. “I wish my husband had ...read more

    Hell is real as real can get. As Christians we have a responsible to tell people about it.

    The Reality of Hell Luke 16:19-31 Intro The subject of today’s sermon is one of those things that we all believe, but none of us like to talk about.

    Every Christian has at least 3 fathers...their biological/legal father, the Father and church fathers. Thsi sermon explores what it means to be loved by the Father, how to relate to our earthly fathers and what it means to be a Godly father.

    Someone once said Any fool can be a Father, but it takes a real man to be a Daddy!! Another person says A father carries pictures where his money used to be. Mark Twain said When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But when I ...read more

    You Are....in Jesus Christ

    Contributed by Nickolas Kooi on Jul 21, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,829 views

    As Paul begins his letter to the Ephesians, he tells us four things that we are in Jesus Christ. We are blessed, chosen, adopted, and sealed in Jesus Christ. The sermon also has suggestions for illustrations.

    There are many times in life in which your standing affects what you say. For example, if someone who is better than you, at let’s say bowling, really beats you and then tells you that you are actually really good (although you had a lot of gutter balls), you can feel insulted. Or, when a single ...read more

    "Getting Past The Crowd To Christ"

    based on 1 rating
     | 12,096 views

    This is a very well-known story, certainly to Christians, but I'm not sure that Christians really understand the full import to them of this story. We'll not just be touching unbelievers, but we will all be getting a touch, hopefully, from the Spirit of God from this account.

    "Getting Past The Crowd To Christ" I want us to turn in the Scriptures for our reading just now to Mark's gospel chapter 2. As I have been announcing, I'm going to speak this morning, on the subject of 'Getting Past the Crowd to Christ'. This is a very well-known story, certainly to ...read more
