    How Could God Love Someone Like Me?

    Contributed by John Lowe on Nov 4, 2013
     | 6,706 views

    It was a scandal. Jesus was hanging out with some folk who were not well-respected. In fact, they were religious and social outcasts – and Jesus is not only eating with them, He is enjoying their company.

    9 September 2005 How Could God Love Someone Like Me? Matthew 9:9-13 Introduction As we get started this morning, I want to begin with a question. If Jesus were walking among us today, would He eat at Lauren’s sports bar, “Goony Birds?” If you’re thinking that ...read more

    The Hidden Work That Brings God’s Power

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 18, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,059 views

    This encounter makes no sense (why would Matthew just get up and follow this man) unless you know the behind-the-scenes encounters that happened prior. This message unpacks the need for that hidden work in our lives to see God moves powerfully.

    WHY DOES MATTHEW FOLLOW A STRANGER? The public commitment was preceded by behind-the-scenes work. - Matthew 9:9. - Matthew 4:18-22; John 1:35-42. - Matthew doesn't follow a stranger. He had a previous relationship with Jesus. This public moment was preceded by behind-the-scenes things. - The ...read more

    Why Did The "Sinners" Love Hanging Out With Jesus?

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 30, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,870 views

    It's a fact worth pondering: the tax collectors and sinners LIKED being with Jesus. That's not usually how the lost feel around us. What did Jesus have that we don't?

    AN IMPORTANT FACT: The tax collectors and “sinners” liked hanging out with Jesus. - Matthew 9:10. - It’s easy to rush past verse 10 and get to the rest of this story, but it’s worth settling for a moment here and thinking about its implications. The tax collectors and ...read more

    Continuing in a series about the purposes of our church. This is about outreach.

    Matthew 9:9-13 – The Reach Today I want to tell you a story. It’s a good story, too. It has conflict and underhanded dealings. It has redemption and the promise of a bright future ahead. Plus, it’s true. Today’s story comes to you from Matthew 9:9-13. The same story is also ...read more

    To Fast Or Feast Series

    Contributed by Ron Tuit on Jul 3, 2013
     | 6,909 views

    Jesus uses three contemporary examples to answer the question, "Why don't your disciples fast?"; In doing so, He explains the exclusiveness of the Kingdom of God.

    “Fast or Feast” Matthew 9:14-17 (Mark 2:18-22, Luke 5:33-39) To eat or not to eat; that is the question that is asked of Jesus. Matthew 9:14: “Then John's disciples came and asked him, "How is it that we and the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?" The question ...read more

    Spiritual Climate Change

    Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Jul 22, 2013
    based on 8 ratings
     | 26,136 views

    There are two main climates I want to preach on today, the first an atmosphere in our church that is conducive for a move of the Spirit of God, and the second is an atmosphere in our church and our personal lives that is attractive to the lost.

    Spiritual Climate Change The basic premise of global warming is that certain things done over an extended period of time will heat up the earth. Our message today is about improving the spiritual climate in our lives. There are things that we can do that effect our spiritual climate personally, in ...read more

    When Jesus walked oln the earth, even though His glory was hidden, He was still an amazing light. And light can hurt.

    Passage: Matthew 9:9-13 Intro: Light is an amazing phenomenon. 1. it can be at one time painful, illuminating, helpful, and revealing of things we would rather stayed hidden. 2. if you walk into a dark room and turn on the lights, some inhabitants will scurry away and others will welcome the ...read more

    The Wineskin Of Your Mind

    Contributed by John Perry on Apr 17, 2010

     | 11,607 views

    When Jesus spoke the parable about old wine in a new wineskin he was speaking about more than an old religious system in His time. More importantly He's got something to say about wineskins today!

    Bunbury Sun am 18/04/10 “The wineskin of your mind” Intro: The remarkable truth of the Word of God is that nothing in the Bible is meaningless. Everything ahs value / speaks to our lives / ministers / convicts / directs / encourages & inspires. As a loving father God is looking to ...read more

    Putting new cloth unto old garments is not wise.

    While Christ the Holy Ghost is with us, we are not supposed to be mourning. The Holy Ghost is with us and comforts us. If you are mourning about your situation, you don’t have perfect peace but you’re zapping the life of Christ out of yourself. To have perfect peace is evidence that the ...read more
