    People often wonder “why didn’t God help me?” “why didn’t God answer me?” ”Where was God when I needed him?” Often the answer to these questions is that we allowed ourselves to become distracted.

    Stepping out in Faith can be pretty scary. There is so much apparent uncertainty, and often a lack of ability to see where our foot will land. Peter took some amazing steps of faith that led him to be able to walk on water! What are the things we can l

    Peter Fails, But Grace Avails.

    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

    Story Of Faith

    Contributed by Joe Mack Cherry on Aug 20, 2015
     | 6,065 views

    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

     | 15,313 views

    What do I learn from the storms of life? Everyone has storms. What does Jesus do for us in the storm? He prays for us, comes to us, and ministers to us.

    FINDING GOD IN THE STORM Intro: What a great day to be on a lake! Wouldn’t that be nice? There’s a story in the Bible about some men who were out on the lake. But while they were out there a storm came up, and Jesus came to them. I read an amazing story that I want to pass on to you. I ...read more

    Take A Leap Of Faith And Get Out Of The Boat

     | 12,738 views

    When we feel the storms of life, we need to remember this story of Peter stepping out of the boat and walking toward Jesus, and the leap of faith he took. If he could do it, so can we.

    Three local ministers decided to go fishing one day. They got into a boat, went a short distance out on the lake, and started fishing. After a few hours, one minister ran out of bait. Since they were close to the shore, he stepped over the side of the boat and walked across the water to the bait ...read more

    God not only provides abundantly for God's people, God also takes our small gifts and makes them adequate to the task.

    Matthew 14:13-33 “Abundance” INTRODUCTION Jesus feeding the five thousand and Jesus walking on water are probably two of the best known miracle stories. I remember being taught them in the early years of my Sunday school career. The morals of these stories are still the same that ...read more

    Don't Stay In The Boat

     | 14,519 views

    It has been said that "you will never walk on water if you do not get out of the boat." And yet, too often we fail to think about the next step. This sermon is meant to encourage those afraid to step out in faith as well as those who are sinking!

    Many centuries ago, a man named Peter stood on the edge of a boat in the Sea of Galilee. Like all people who find themselves on an edge - whether physical or metaphorical - a decision had to be made. Peter’s choice was to either to step out onto the water or remain in the boat. Not an easy ...read more

    While Jesus was praying on the mountain, the disciples were in a boat trying to cross the sea. Jesus approaches the boat walking on water. They thought it was a ghost and it frightened them until Jesus spoke up.

    Ninth Sunday after Pentecost Our Gospel reading this morning talks about the apostles’ struggle with fear as a raging storm tosses their boat like a cork on the churning sea. Now fear could be a good thing or it can be a bad thing. It can cripple us or it can be a lifesaver. Someone once ...read more
