    Contributed by Chris Appleby on May 12, 2012
     | 5,224 views

    As the Revelation opens John sees a vision of Jesus standing among the churches of Asia and the vision is of one who shows the glory of God shining from his face

    Today we begin a series on the book of Revelation. You may be aware that this is not an easy book to follow so let me give you a short introduction. The first thing to understand is that this is not a work of history, though it is firmly rooted in the history of the Church since Jesus Christ. ...read more

  • The Eternal Gospel Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on May 13, 2012
     | 4,507 views

    The eternal gospel is more about God than it is about us. And it isn't good news for everyone.

    What is the gospel? Is it really good news, or is it something more? The answer to that question is important because if we get it wrong it’ll affect two things: the message we give people who don’t yet know Jesus, and more importantly whether we think it matters whether they hear about ...read more

    Everyone needs a place to belong. A place that fits us like an old pair of jeans. A place that's as comfortable as our favorite recliner. This sermon explores the benefits of belonging to a church family. Expository and alliterated.

    A PLACE TO BELONG Scott Bayles, pastor Church in the Park, Modesto: 8/26/2012 Good morning again and welcome to Church in the Park. Whether you’ve been attending church your whole life or you’re just sort of testing the waters right now, I want you to know we’re glad you’re ...read more

    To be an effective Church we must be pliable clay in God's hand.

    "God's Work of Art" Jeremiah 18:1-11 I have entitled this sermon, "God's Work of Art," but I am unsure as to whether this is an appropriate title or not. Let's see where we go from here, and perhaps you can let me know if I gave this sermon a proper name. Nowadays, pottery-making is an art ...read more

  • Our Sinful, Human Nature

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 6, 2015
     | 5,523 views

    If we love God, we will truly love the things we ought to love and we'll find some other way of expressing our appreciation for the material things we have.

    The passage from Hosea 11:1-10 is a story of God mourning over his people. He loved Israel like a parent loves a child, but Israel spurned him. Even though he was rejected, God still loved Israel and could not renounce his chosen people. It is a metaphor for what Jesus did. Jesus was rejected by ...read more

     | 7,518 views

    We are all broken sinners, and Jesus loves us anyway.

    "Living Water" John 4:4-42 When I was entering the 6th grade my family moved to an entirely different part of the country and I, of course, entered an entirely different school. It was a horrifying experience. It was humiliating. It was dehumanizing. Why do I say that? Because, on the ...read more

    You Are What You Drink Thirst is one of the most intense of all feelings that a person can have, and with good reason.

    God has spoken.

    And God Said Genesis 1:1-2:2 God had spoken. The one who speaks expects to be heard. And God was heard. Speaking is the first active verb of the universe. The only verb that existed before creation was the “is-ness” of God. There can be no speech without a speaker. Speaking is how God ...read more

    John 4:5-42 "Creatures of the Light" Last week we talked about how the Gospel of John uses the metaphors of darkness and light over and over again in deeply symbolic ways.

    Our heart speaks of the seat of our mind, will and emotions. The Bible says the Heart needs guarding. This sermon looks at the issue of the why we need to guard our hearts.

    GUARDING THE HEART Introduction “Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life” (Proverbs 4:23, NIV). Scripture clearly teaches us that the real issues of life are spiritual and are really matters of the heart, the inner man. Maybe it’s for this reason the word “heart” is ...read more

    God never called any to be a lone ranger Christian. We are called to come together as living stones to build up the New Temple of God, to be His dwelling place.

    I brought this brick with me this morning. Now there is really nothing special about this brick all by itself. It’s not much to look at. But if we take a whole bunch of these bricks and put them together, the results are much more impressive. These bricks do not build a building all by themselves. ...read more
