Peter Fails, But Grace Avails.

Contributed by John Colbert on Aug 4, 2015

The sermons that I have listed are 30 to 40 minute sermons. I have only listed the points and a couple of comments under each point of each sermon to give the preacher a remembrance which the Holy Spirit can lead on and speak through the man of God.

Peter fails, but Grace avails. Matthew 14:28 and Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. (Matthew 14:23-31) In these verses we see a beautiful word picture of Peter walking by faith and not by sight. Peter here is stepping out of his safe zone ...read more

Contributed by Joe Mack Cherry on Aug 20, 2015

A Christian's life is based on faith. Even the Apostles lacked it at times. This is hard to understand since they were eyewitnesses. We all have evidence that Jesus works in our lives today so when our faith is weak we are no different than them!

Story of Faith I. Matt. 14:22-33/Mk. 6:30-52/Luke 9:10-17/Jo. 6:1-15 A. Prelude to The Story 1. Prior to Jesus coming to His own hometown Mark tells us He had cast out the demon, Legion and raised a little girl from the dead. Upon arrival to Nazareth He teaches in the ...read more

The Fragments Of Our Lives

Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Mar 12, 2018

From the amazing stories of multiplying of bread and walking on water I want to share some faith principles and seek God’s blessing as we consider them.

Why We Can Be An Optimist This 2017

Contributed by Manny Salva Cruz on Jan 9, 2017

You can look pessimistically this New Year or you can look optimistically. We must choose to be optimistic. Our outlook will determine our ultimate destiny.

WHY I AM AN OPTIMIST THIS 2017 INTRODUCTION: Happy New Year to everyone. Welcome to 2017. A bright new year is ahead of us. I wonder if you have the same feeling or outlook in this year as I do.

Eyes, Ears And Heart

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jan 24, 2017

Through Jesus Parables we will be given “knowledge of the secrets of the Kingdom of Heaven”. This knowledge is being revealed to those of you who are seekers of the deep spiritual truths of God. Some of us will understand but others won't. Why?

Eyes, Ears and Heart Matthew 13:1-23 NIV Last year our Sunday messages went through a series of topics on a closer walk with God that taught us how to be better disciples of Jesus. You may or may not have realized it but for 30 weeks that is what I spoke about. It was my prayer that these messages ...read more

Get Out Of The Boat Series

Contributed by Leighton (Lee) Vary on Feb 7, 2017

Using Peter's walk on the water, we can see that our own faith can only be tried by getting out of the boat. Then and only then can Christ use us. Our faith can grow, our trust increase and we can serve our Lord.

I. Introduction A. What would be the best message for the first of the New Year? 1. I’m sure that every preacher has an answer for that question 2. And like me, probably, its different from year to year B. Just about a month ago we were watching John MacArthur one Sunday Evening and he ...read more

Cry Out To Jesus Series

Contributed by Adam Weber on Mar 17, 2017

There will be times that we take our eyes off of Jesus, and we’ll get distracted by fear. But what matters isn’t whether we or not we take our eyes off Jesus, but what happens when we do. Do we stay there and just drown in the waves?
