One was pretty well known and respected across the ...read more

    This is about coming to faith and its greatest obstacle. Was going to pull the one I wrote 3 years ago, but apparently people like it. So, I will leave it. Think this one is better though.

    In Matthew 16, Jesus confers on Peter (and, later the other Apostles) authority to rule the Church, founded on the truth of Peter’s confession that Jesus is the Messiah.

    Matthew 16:13-20 800-Pound Gorilla? Or the First Pope? There’s a phrase that’s popular in modern discussions of any number of topics, and that phrase is this: “an 800 pound gorilla in the room.” An example would be this line which I plucked from a blog entry on the international economy as it ...read more

    Because that will effect the way you live the rest of your life

    Introduction This morning/evening I’d like to focus on one verse from our reading 16Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." I want to ask two questions: 1. What did Peter mean – and 2. What does this mean to us today. 1. What did Peter mean when he said “ You ...read more

    Deals with the Good News no matter the situation. A follow-up to a sermon dealing with homosexuality within the church.

    Last Sunday I violated one of the most cardinal rules in sermon presentation. They taught us in seminary to always end every sermon with Good News. Unfortunately, my subject last week left us with very little Good News to celebrate. But, after much consideration and after reading through the ...read more

    This sermon is an evangelistic message based on the founding of the church by Jesus Christ as He talked with His disciples at Caesarea Philippi.

    When you’re going to build a house or similar structure, the first thing you get in mind is some design. You get a picture in mind and eventually put it on paper called a blueprint. Then you begin with a firm foundation upon which to build. That’s exactly what God did when He created the world, ...read more
