    What Moves The Hand Of God

    Why most churches and individuals miss the power of God in their lives.

    Matt. 13:53-58 WHAT MOVES THE HAND OF GOD INTRO: ***A little boy was heard talking to himself as he walked across the backyard, baseball cap in place, ball and bat in his hands. "I am the greatest hitter in the world," he said. He threw the ball up, swung and missed. "Strike one," he said. But ...read more

    Why Jesus spoke in parables, and a look at the Parable of the Sower

    THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM Series: Pursuing Meaning Most of us remember Aesop’s Fables... --The wolf in sheep’s clothing teaches us that appearances can be deceiving. -The town mouse and country mouse teach us that it’s better to eat beans and bacon in safety than cakes and ale in fear. -The goose ...read more

    Scattering The Seed

     | 35,805 views

    Why wouldn’t God be more selective in what soil He allows His seed to be planted? And why did Jesus tell only this parable (but not the explanation of the parable) to this crowds?

    A man walked into a flower shop and asked for some potted red geraniums. "I’m sorry," said the clerk in flower shop, "we are completely sold out of all of our potted geraniums. But I’d be more than happy to give you a deal on something else. Could you use African violets instead?" ...read more

    Why Didn't God Pull The Weeds? Series

    This 2nd parable of Christ’s tells of an enemy that sowed "weeds" in the field of the Son of Man. But in the parable Christ instructs his laborers (the angels) not to yank out the weeds? How come?

    OPEN: I’m told there are only two vegetables that are “perennial” - they don’t have to be replanted to produce on their own- several growing seasons. All other vegetables must be replanted every year. Quiz: What are the only two vegetables that don’t have to be replanted? (Rhubarb/ ...read more

     | 8,123 views

    The kingdom begins with us, what will we choose to do with the Good News about the kingdom, which soil will we choose to be?

    What comes to your mind when I say the kingdom of heaven or the kingdom of God (since they are used interchangeably in the gospels)? [Allow the congregation to give their input]. Perhaps pearly gates, gold streets, the throne room of God himself? Most of our thoughts of the kingdom revolve ...read more

    The Dance

    When Jesus shrouded truth in parables, He was of sorts "dancing" with us. This sermon compares the mystery of a man / woman relationship with the mystery of the relationship of Christ and his Bride, the church.

    Matt 13:13-15 "Therefore I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand. And in them the prophecy of Isaiah is fulfilled, which says: ’Hearing you will hear and shall not understand, and seeing you will see and not perceive; for ...read more

    Give up your dreams of a “pure church”. The reality is there will always be a mixture of true followers and hypocrites. Make sure you’re ready for the judgment day and get on with the work of being fruitful!

    INTRO: I’ve got a confession to make. I love Roundup. I love the feeling of just going around, spraying a little bit of poison and then in a few days seeing those weeds shrivel up and die! It’s so much more fun than actually pulling the weeds up! But, the problem with Roundup is it can be ...read more

    The Seed Of God's Word

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jun 18, 2007
    based on 11 ratings
     | 17,323 views

    The key to a fruitful and abundant life is with our response to the Word. The way we receive the Word is critical to having a fruitful and blessed life. The seed is productive only if the soil is receptive. The Word is good seed; are you the good soil?

    This is a parable. Jesus explains: “The one who sowed the good seed is the Son of Man” (Mt 13:37) • The field is the world, people of the world (13:38). • And the seed is the Word of God. The sower throws seed onto the ground. God is speaking to the world. • The seed falls onto the ground without ...read more

    Pre Marriage Relationships

     | 15,410 views

    A painfully honest sermon, about developing a Godly pre-marriage relationship, from two people who failed God and had to fall upon His mercy. This was preached by my wife and I.

    Relationships – How to develop a godly relationship We are going to talk about relationships before marriage today. The first thing that I want to say is that we didn’t do everything right. In fact we made a lot of mistakes and had some failures along the way. We want to share some of those ...read more

    Today we have the first occasion where Matthew uses the word parable. And, as we have seen in the past, the first time that something occurs in the Bible is very important to note and pay special attention to.

    The Kingdom Of Heaven Is Like… – Part 1 The Parable Of The Sower And The Seed Matthew 13:1-23 The very first phrase of the first verse of our passage today says a great deal about our Lord and His approach to ministry. We have already seen what a full day He has had. We know from the flow of the ...read more

    We are to be loving, kind and accepting of the people God places in our lives, even though we are to be discerning and unaccepting of their sinful choices. Yet, even in this, we are to do so in love. For we do not know where that person stands with God or

    The Kingdom Of Heaven Is Like… – Part 2 The Parable Of The Wheat And The Tares Matthew 13:24-30, 36-43 Before we begin today, let’s make sure we are all clear about what a parable is and what the difference is between a parable and an allegory.

    Learning all of this stuff is just a bunch of stuff if it doesn’t do something to us, change something about us and enrich those around us. If we do not bear the kind of fruit that makes people more aware of Jesus Christ just because we’re around, then a

    The Kingdom Of Heaven Is Like… – Part 3 The Parables Of The Mustard Seed And The Leaven Matthew 13:31-35 Before we begin today, I would like once again to make sure that we are all clear about what a parable is and what the difference is between a parable and an allegory.

    Eternal life is the most valuable thing in the world. What would you pay for it?

    What would you pay for eternal life? Picture yourself in this scenario. You just bought one of those metal detectors and you go out to use it just as a hobby. You find this big field and you’re doing you thing. Every now and then you find something nice and sometimes not valuable. But it keeps ...read more

    Return Of The King Series

     | 3,743 views

    God allows evil to grow side by side with good in order to give every person the opportunity to receive him and be a part of his kingdom, but the time for judgement and separation will be coming when the King returns.

    For those of you who weren’t here last week you missed a great presentation from our missionaries Randy and Patti Cunningham on their work down in Haiti and the Caribbean. If you weren’t here I highly encourage you to get a tape of last weeks service and listen to it. God has done amazing things ...read more

     | 12,544 views

    What is a dandelion? To some it is a flower, to some it is a vegetable, and to some it is a weed. It is hard for us to know the difference. If we uproot the dandelion we may be causing damage. If we uproot what we think are weeds in our churches and c

    Last Sunday as we were looking at the Parable of the Sower I told you about moving in to a new parsonage at Lovelady and with that new parsonage came a new yard. One of the men in the congregation, the chair of the board, thought that the lawn needed to have grass so he bought Bermuda grass seed ...read more
