    Free To Fail

    Contributed by Scott Jensen on Jun 10, 2019

    Sharing and 'doing' love is something that we can do in response to the love that Jesus has already shared with us. However, when we love, we may also fail.

    - Opening Remarks and Introduction Last week we started a new series called “Love Does” based on a book of that same title by the author Bob Goff. As the name suggests, our sermons for the next few weeks are going to talk a lot about love. Not just the emotion of love, but what we do when we ...read more

    The Danger Of "mega-Dittos"

    In this discourse, I've reworked several sermons from other preachers with a slightly different emphasis based upon the Contemporary English Version's translation of Matthew 16:23, namely, "You're in the way because you think like everybody else..."

    (If you have found this sermon useful, please visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info) Comparing a variety of Biblical versions can be very helpful, and given the fact that the original New Testament texts were written in an old form of Greek, drawing out the ...read more

    "Los ladrones habrán decidido, ‘Vamos a dejar la cruz y llevarnos a Jesús”. No sabemos por que sólo se lo llevaron a El….Si uno quiere a Jesús, uno debe llevarse la cruz también.”

Tres semanas más tarde, la iglesia fue robada por segunda vez. Pero esta vez, los ladrones escaparon con algo ...read more

    Part 1: Preparing For The Fight Series

     | 5,544 views

    I was raised NOT to fight. My Father told me since I was knee-high that fighting was wrong and that I would get a “whoopin’” if he ever found out that I had been fighting.

    The first fight I ever had was unofficial if you will and it was between a local farm-boy and myself. I was defeated, although it took awhile, and I ended up with two black eyes and some swelling to my jaw. I never asked for the fight but it happened and I was ill-prepared to defend ...read more

    "Bear The Cross Of Self Denial"

    Contributed by Gerald Roberts on Aug 31, 2017
     | 9,598 views

    The sermon is based on the idea of dying by denying self and considering the needs of others in order to be a true disciple of Jesus.

    “Bear the Cross by Self Denial” Matthew 16:21-28 • It was bad enough for the disciples to hear that Jesus would suffer, be rejected, and die on a cross. Now Jesus told them that they must do the same thing. The cross was an instrument of death it had no other purpose • “Cross bearing does ...read more

    Are Extreme Christians Really Extreme?

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Oct 18, 2017
     | 5,234 views

    In the Church of The Nazarene there is a wing of missions called Extreme Nazarenes and we are thankful for their service in the Kingdom of God, but, are they really Extreme or just what Jesus calls us all to be?

    Please open your Bibles to Matthew 16:21-28 which we will read in a few minutes. This past Thursday we were privileged to have missionaries from Extreme Nazarenes with us for what we anticipated being our faith promise service. As it turned out it was a time of them explaining to us how the ...read more

    Look, you need to know this man died. He was tortured and executed. It was awful.

    In the book, How to Disappear, there are true stories of people who faked their own deaths to collect on life insurance policies, or simply to start over. To catch them, specialists are hired. The book says many get caught by doing things like visiting their mother. Or, they chose a new name that ...read more

    This message is about what a spiritual attack looks like and what can be done about it.

    Do you remember the record where Peter rebukes Jesus for telling the disciples He was going to die in Jerusalem? Of course you do. Turn with me to Matthew 16. (21) From that time forth began Jesus to shew unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the ...read more
