  • Twenty-Sixth Sunday In Ordinary Time, Year B: "When In Doubt, Cut It Out.”

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Aug 15, 2024
     | 750 views

    It is not hyperbole to say that it is better to enter heaven maimed [one-armed, one-footed, and one-eyed] than to enter hell whole. That is literally true.

    “When Jesus exaggerated” is a book title, and there are countless articles on how Jesus uses exaggeration and hyperbole for effect, like we hear this Sunday; to literally cut off your hand or foot or gouge-out your eyes because then you won’t sin with them.1 However, “it is not hyperbole to say ...read more

    Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Nov 13, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,094 views

    Fish are not checking out the potential beauty of the bottom of the boat and deciding by this measure by whom they would prefer to be caught. They are drawn in by what is on the hook?

    Title: “Fish don’t look at the Bottom of the Boat.” Introduction: Jesus told his disciples that if they would follow him, than he would make of them “Fishers of Men.” In this text, Jesus is on a fishing expedition. You might find the title of this message a bit strange, so let me do my best to ...read more

    based on 24 ratings

    When we discuss time we usually think of hours and minutes, but there is another type of time that is measured by opportunities, that is the theme of this message.

Sometimes we make God’s Word to complex—we forget the simplicity of the Good News that Billy Graham has preached for all these years. But that ...read more

     | 7,231 views

    This sermon is about the place of fasting in the life of the Believer. Specifically, this is a challenge to use the month of February to fast from some measure of electronics.

  • Our Faith Potential

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Sep 2, 2025
     | 210 views

    Why does God need us to walk in ALL of the faith that He has deposited into us?

    So much of what we hear about faith today is designed to motivate us to pursue faith for ourselves and the things we desire. And because of a “me first” attitude, many in the Church are not walking in their faith potential. They don’t understand the purpose of faith and what they can do to help ...read more
