    Fishing For Men

    Contributed by Scott Spencer on Aug 19, 2013
     | 7,144 views

    What does it mean to follow Jesus? What does it mean to hear "the Master's call?" "Many are called but few are chosen," the Bible says. In order to understand that statement, we may say that many are called but few really respond to that call.

    Mark 1:16-20 "And as He was going along by the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew, the brother of Simon, casting a net in the sea; for they were fishermen. And Jesus said to them, 'Follow Me, and I will make you become fishers of men.' And they immediately left the nets and followed Him. ...read more

    Let’s Go Fishing Series

    The best fishermen often have expensive rods and reels and lures. But these are only tools. If those tools don’t help them catch fish, they’re worthless. What tools do we use to "catch" souls for Jesus and how does Jesus turn us into "fishers of men"?

    A couple of guys named Ed and Fred had gone fishing for the very first time in their lives. They went out and bought themselves a couple of rods and reels, went down to the lake and rented a boat at the boat rental place and rowed out to a likely place and let down their anchor. They’d read ...read more

    God Calling- Answer The Phone

    Contributed by Rev Ken Shedenhelm on Apr 16, 2013
     | 10,821 views

    God calls us in many ways and we need to listen for His voice.

    Listen...to your life... and you'll hear the BAT QOL- the voice of God. You will hear our Lord's voice, comforting, challenging, and calling you to lose yourself in the Master's service. Indeed, unless we "leave our nets" and follow Him, it's hard to see how we can call ourselves Christian. ...read more

    Mending The Nets

    James and John were mending nets. What kinds of nets do we need to mend? I can think of three: a. Our relationship with God, b. our relationship between us and other people, and c. To repair the relationships between others and God.

    MENDING THE NETS Mk. 1:14-20 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Career planning 1.

     | 7,155 views

    "Jesus is YHWH himself, bringing people back from spiritual exile, the returning King himself, bringing the long-awaited circumcision of the heart by the Holy Spirit."

    Last week we stood on the edge of the Promised Land, and we were given the choice, by YHWH, between life and death. However, the simple option of choosing life, of choosing YHWH, or loving Him fully and others equally, we discovered, is only possible through radical heart surgery – circumcised ...read more

    Jesus confronted the complex. His message was and is simple. Let’s get back to the basics He taught us! Why make it difficult?

    Disciples? I. Introduction Some things are complex and complicated. Rubix Cubes. Algebra. Or maybe better said . . . math. Why people in horror movies go into barns, cellars.

    It was just a day at the beach but it was also the beginning of Christianity, when Jesus went from being simply a teacher to the leader and founder of a movement.

    A Day at the Beach: the Beginning This time of year it’s easy for our minds to drift to warmer climes and the beach. If you close your eyes you can almost envision the turquoise water, the white sand and a palm tree that you can lean back on. I love being close to the water. Maybe ...read more
