    Paddling The Boat Of Mediocrity

    Contributed by Brent Hutsell on Oct 11, 2001
    based on 23 ratings
     | 3,879 views

    As Christians, some are aimlessly wondering around not accomplishing anything for the cause of Christ. I believe that’s because we’re paddling the boat of mediocrity!

    I. Introduction A. James 1:6-8 B. As God’s people we have become tossed to every wind of doctrine so much to the point that some are confused altogether. 1. When we are unstable and uncrontrolled by the Spirit of God, we become undependable to the cause of Christ. 2. Our ...read more

    This sermon shows the great power that people have when they work together and especially Christian people. Considering the events of Sept. 11 2001 "Togetherness" is a necessity.

    Scripture: Genesis 11:1-9 Title: “The Power of Togetherness” Introduction: God’s blessings was “Withdrawn” because the people were working to bypass God. Our nation has been blessed beyond any other nation on the face of this earth. We have been the nation to be desired to be a part of because of ...read more

    God has chosen to limit His work, not according to His resources in Christ Jesus, but according to the availability of His people. Jesus could have walked all the way across the Sea of Galilee, but He chose to use a boat. He will use us for His work, if w

    inspired by John Ortberg

    GET OUT OF THE BOAT. I used to always think Simon Peter was nuts for getting out of the boat and thinking he could walk on water.

    Everyone at one time or another has gone through some type of storm. Over the years I have found that no one is immune from the storms of life. Jesus said ye shall have tribulation.

     | 2,295 views

    Failure isn’t an event, it’s the reaction to an event

    Let’s start off with talking about the boat. What is the boat? Well, it’s safe, warm, somewhat dry, but most importantly it floats. The comfort that the boat brings is priceless in a storm. Secondly, the boat is where most of the passengers of this cruise had spent their whole life. ...read more

    based on 12 ratings
     | 3,895 views

    Taking a look at how we should respond to times of spiritual failure...a look at Peter.

    “How to Fail Successfully” Matthew 14:25-33 MT 14:25 During the fourth watch of the night Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. 26 When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. "It’s a ghost," they said, and cried out in fear. 27 But Jesus immediately said to them: ...read more

    "Stay With The Boat"

    Contributed by Bobby Touchton on May 10, 2004
    based on 38 ratings
     | 14,951 views

    Among the interpretation’s of Peter’s attempt to walk on water, one in particular is that he should have stayed with the boat, much like Christians should stay with other Christians and allow them to minister to one another.

    Submitted by Dr. Bobby J. Touchton Ashland, Kentucky “Immediately he made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds. And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up the mountain by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone, but ...read more

    Risk It

    Contributed by Bradford Robinson on Nov 8, 2005
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,099 views

    Life is not about playing it safe, nor is the Christian faith. Faith requires that we take risk, just like Peter took a risk stepping out of the boat.

    Many of you might remember the Lethal Weapons movies of a few years back. In these movies there was a good safe cop who did things conservatively, by the book, who wasn’t in to taking unnecessary risks. Then there was the character played by Mel Gibson who was always taking risks. He would jump ...read more

     | 3,936 views

    The disciples in this story were facing a Dilemma. It is easy to trust the Lord when we are sailing on the smooth sea of life and there are no clouds in view and the sun is shining and the birds are singing. But what about the storm?

    "ON THE HORNS OF A DILEMMA" Matt 14:22-33 Speaking of Horns - I like what I heard one preacher says, "A lot of preaching is Long Horn preaching". A couple of points with a lot of bull in between. I hope my message this morning will not fall into that category. We need to see the definition of ...read more

    God is good not only when life is pleasant, God is also good in life’s unpleasant circumstances

    GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME Matthew 14:22-32 God is good all the time, All the time God is good. We tend to say that and perhaps only believe it when life is going great.
