    Jesus turns our cultural ideas of "the good life" upside down by affirming a radical shift in our thinking and actions away from our own agenda and living for Him will bring us true happiness and contentment.

    You can listen to the audio of the sermon at: https://www.buzzsprout.com/697261/4078034 Intro: • Yale course on happiness. Taken by over 2 million people. • Professor Laurie Santos - demand is a “bit surreal but understandable given that people are looking for evidenced-based ways of ...read more

    Daniel 5: Being A Person Of Substance Series

    Belshazzar is "weighed in the balance and found wanting," while Daniel is strong in his faith in God. Our substance is found in the kingdom of God, as described in the Beatitudes and Sermon on the Mount.

    BEING A PERSON OF SUBSTANCE—Daniel 5 ***A few years ago, a best-selling book was titled, “The Worst Case Scenario Survival Handbook.” It gave advice from experts in a variety of fields, all telling “How to”: How to…fend off a shark, deliver a baby in a taxicab, jump from a moving car, survive if a ...read more

    This is part one of my series "Living in the Kingdom." This series will cover in depth Jesus' sermon on the mount where He teaches us how to live in His kingdom while we are still living on the earth.

    The Prayer Of Jabez

    Contributed by Dr. Jerry Hulse on Nov 2, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,164 views

    The prayer of Jabez has been used by many people over the centuries to seek a special blessing from God. To pray like Jabez, it's important for us to surrender our lives to God, trusting Him with everything we have, so that He can leave His mark through us for future generations.

    SCRIPTURE REFERENCES (1 Chronicles 4:9-10) (9) “And Jabez was more honorable than his brethren: and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, Because I bare him with sorrow.” (10) “And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, ...read more

    As we count our blessings, while we are thankful for the provisions of this life, the place of our blessedness is in our redemption by the blood of Jesus.

    J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. (Ps. 19:14) “Blessed Art Thou” “Have a blessed day.” Perhaps you have heard that phrase from time to time. Too often it’s not a parting wish from a close ...read more

    The Birthmarks Of Purity Series

     | 1,259 views

    The ultimate goal of most people in the world is to see God. What does it take?

    Matthew 5:8 is one of the most astounding statements in the word of God. You and I may stand and look at the same object and see different things. The eye sees what it is trained to see. That is not only true physically, but spiritually. Isn't it amazing that two people can come to the same ...read more

    The Birthmark Of Persecution Series

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Nov 23, 2022
     | 1,246 views

    Persecution stems from the world's anger with God and not being able to take it out on Him. The world wants to fight God, but choose to fight with Christians. Remember it is not personal, it is hatred for God.

    This is the final message on the Beatitudes, the Birthmarks of the Believers. Jesus was the Messiah, but He was not the Messiah everyone was expecting. The Jews were in bondage. They believed that when He came, He was going to come as a mighty warrior. They were not as interested in being saved ...read more

    At The Poverty Line Series

    Being financially secure, being well educated, having the respect and admiration of your neighbors, none of those get you credit in God’s kingdom. We’re all charity cases there.

    Are you happy? If not, what would it take to make you happy? For most people, happiness seems to have something to do with our circumstances. In our youth-obsessed culture, perhaps we feel we have to look backward to imagine happiness. “What is happiness?” and “How can I get happiness?” are two ...read more

    How many of you wear glasses? I’ve worn mine since I was seven years old. I was able to wear contact lenses for about 20 years but after about 40 they don’t work so well. And since I got cataract surgery and don’t need glasses for distance, I’m using reading glasses – so I have to take them on and ...read more

    Pulpit notes for preaching on the Beatitudes.

    THE BEATITUDES. Matthew 5:1-12. MATTHEW 5:3. “Poor in spirit.” Humble. Recognise their lostness without Christ. Not too proud to receive Jesus as Saviour. “Theirs is the kingdom of heaven.” MATTHEW 5:4. “They that mourn.” Mourn over their sin, admit it. ‘Against thee, thee only have I sinned’ ...read more

    Being Light Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Aug 14, 2023
     | 2,428 views

    The Beatitudes teach the qualities that God works in the character of Christ's disciples. Then in Matthew 5:13-16 the emphasis turns to the influence Christians are to have in the world around them. The point of our text is that we let our light shine.

    Intro Immediately following the Beatitudes, Jesus uses two metaphors to declare the task given to his followers in the world. Those two metaphors are salt and light. We have examined the first one. Now we want to learn from the second metaphor, light. Our text today is Matt 5:14-16: "You are ...read more

    "The visions of God are seen only through the lens of a pure heart." So, let's open our hearts and minds to God’s Truth, and explore together how purity of heart leads us to witness the visions of God.

    Introduction My sermon today revolves around the profound truth that "The visions of God are seen only through the lens of a pure heart." This concept resonates deeply with our faith and aligns with the teachings of the Bible. So, let's open our hearts and minds to God’s Truth, and ...read more

    Micah 6:1-8, Psalm 15:1-5, 1 Corinthians 1:18-31, Matthew 5:1-12. A). THE LORD’S CONTROVERSY. Micah 6:1-8. It is tragic when God has to serve a summons upon His own people.

    The other, more important meaning, is that there will be a coming reversal of circumstances for those who are unfortunate, the marginalized, the abused, those who live in poverty, so these beatitudes are not just virtues to attain in this life.
