    A church must seek change in order that it continue to be relevant John Stott promotes this while holding on the 4 essential marks

    ***NOTE*** I have to confess that at a late hour the night before preaching this sermon the ’goat’ ate my sermon and 11 months of sermons in a folder on my computer. I had to re-write it late that night. I was desperate so I used more of John Stott’s words than was in my original script. I am ...read more

    What does Christ’s resurrection mean to you personally? This is the real question. Every person must make Christ’s resurrection personal to his or her own heart.

    Because of the Resurrection Matthew 28 www.crbible.com/sermons Introduction: 1. The resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead is the bedrock upon which the Christian faith stands. 2. “If Christ be not risen,” Paul said in 1 Corinthians 15, “then is our preaching vain, and your ...read more

    The Need For Spiritual Change

    Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Nov 28, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 9,084 views

    When we listen to and obey our Lord Jesus we are received into a new spiritual family.

    THE NEED FOR SPIRITUAL CHANGE. Matthew 12:22-50. The spiritual blindness of the people opposed to Jesus is demonstrated in their reaction to His good works. Their refusal to hear His message is echoed in their speaking out against Him. A demon-possessed man, who was physically both blind and ...read more

    No Fear! Series

    Contributed by Lanny Smith on May 24, 2022
     | 1,572 views

    People are often motivated primarily by fear or greed. But love is the best motivator.

    What motivates you? Cynical approach used in sales: Fear and greed. If we believe that we’re completely on our own in the world, then these two impulses serve as effective motivators. As followers of Christ know that there is a more powerful motivator: Love. At the same time, we can lose sight of ...read more

    The Need Of The Church Series

    Contributed by Grant Adams on Feb 8, 2020
     | 4,072 views

    If you sat down and asked what does the church need today, what would be your answer? A lot of times we think of the material things, but God is more interested in the people that make up the church. What are the needs of the people? I hope to answer that question for us all.

    The 2nd and 3rd chapters of Revelation, tell us of real churches in real places. These churches also are representative of different ages of church history. The Laodicean church is a description of this church age. The church that is neither cold nor hot. A church that was rich and said it had need ...read more

    How would you answer if Jesus asked, “What would you like me to do for you?” In our text two different people are asked that question.

    WHAT DO I WANT JESUS TO DO FOR ME? Mark 10:32-52 Introduction How would you answer if Jesus asked, “What would you like me to do for you?” In our text two different people are asked that question.

    Free Lunch!

    Contributed by Val Black on Nov 25, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,401 views

    There are always claims of a "Free Lunch" but none of them prove to be true, with one exception. It's a real meal and it really is free.

    (This is a sermonette and/or illustration, that was taken from one of our Gospel tracts. It could be considered tongue-in-cheek. It simply explains the Marriage Supper of the Lamb and how to qualify to participate in it.) Someone once said there is no such thing as a “free lunch.” There are ...read more

    The Great Commission Convolution Of Same Sex Marriage

    Contributed by Dr. Craig Nelson on Feb 22, 2019
    based on 5 ratings
     | 3,773 views

    Does the Bible teach that the only way it can help all people face tomorrow in the power of God’s love is by becoming a diverse and inclusive congregation – multiracial, multigenerational and multicultural – offering a warm, non-threatening environment to all?

    The enemy has been very successful seducing churches to choose a different path to fulfill the Great Commission by becoming “Open and Affirming / Welcoming” rather than becoming places of supernatural transformation. Many churches see themselves as a place that, no matter where one is on their ...read more

    Paul speaks of his love to come, but must send Timothy instead.

    I THESSALONIANS CHAPTER 1 THE MODEL CHURCH I. INTRODUCTION It is obvious from the nature of the writing that the apostle Paul had very deep feelings for the individuals with whom he had shared the gospel.

    Why They Turned Down The Bread Of Life Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 15, 2020
     | 4,176 views

    This section is lengthy and confusing. There is a lot going on. This message unpacks it by focusing on five of the key reasons the crowd rejects Jesus here.

    - A couple things up front. - First, there is a lot in this passage, yet the passage needs to be taken together. A lot of ideas are brought out, but it’s all a cohesive whole. So we are going to cover a lot of ground this evening. - Second, there is so much in this passage that there are ...read more

    Called Out: The Role Of The Church

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 14, 2022
     | 2,039 views

    Jesus Christ is the Head of the Church, and no one else (Matthew 16:13-19). We have strayed from what the Scriptures teach about the church's purpose and responsibilities and instead allowed the world's opinions take precedence over what we are to be and do.

    When we hear the word "church", most of us think of a building or membership in a particular denomination with standards, beliefs, and guidelines for worship, order, the reading and use of Scripture, and sermons. The problem is that far too many people now view the church as a symbol ...read more
