  • You Are The Salt Of The Earth Series

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on May 23, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,543 views

    Jesus calls us to be the salt - the preservative - of the earth. He warns us against losing our sense of mission. Or, considering the Greek, perhaps he is warning us against being pushed off course. But either way, his message is: stick with it.

    Today, after a bit of a break, we’re returning to Jesus’ longest recorded sermon, the Sermon on the Mount. Can you remember how Jesus starts his sermon? What was his first WORD? Jesus’ first word is ‘blessed’. ‘Blessed’ means happy or fortunate. Jesus wants us to be blessed. He is going to ...read more

     | 2,394 views

    We look at the 5 reasons we should overlook insults: To aid the new nature, to seek Truth, because we consider its source, because we only seek God's approval, and to show our revilers God's grace.

    THE GRACE OF OVERLOOKING AN INSULT INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Stories from Alaska 1. What do you call an emotionally unstable animal who lives in Alaska and vacations in antarctica? A BIPOLAR BEAR 2.

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 18, 2021
     | 3,825 views

    The Bible says we're SUPPOSED to judge and that we're NOT supposed to judge. The key to the mystery has to do with people versus actions. We also have the responsibility to carry God's mail to the untaught.

    “DON’T JUDGE?” Mt. 7:1 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Missing the Target is the Goal 1. Patrick McSherry told about how his Navy Dad always bragged about the gunners on his ship.

  • While God May Be Found (July 17, 2022)

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Jul 15, 2022
     | 2,363 views

    Who would argue against the understanding that we live in a day when many take God for granted? One thing that eighth chapter of Amos makes clear is that moving away from God invites destruction. The opening image of ripe fruit cuts to the chase as a metaphor for God’s judgement.

    WHILE GOD MAY BE FOUND Texts: Isaiah 55:6, Amos 8:1- 2, 8:11- 12 Isaiah 55:6 Seek the Lord while He may be found; call upon Hime while He is near Amo 8:1 This is what the Lord GOD showed me: behold, a basket of summer fruit. 2 And he said, “Amos, what do you see?” And I said, “A basket of ...read more
