    We must be willing to joyfully give our all to the Lord.

    Jesus asks an awful lot of His followers. He asked His disciples to give up their businesses and their homes to follow Him around the countryside for three years.

    based on 74 ratings
     | 4,085 views

    I have often been asked by christians "why if the Bible doesn’t mention smoking, how can it be wrong" I believe this message answers those questions.

    What’s Wrong With A Christian Who Smokes? Text (1Cor. 3:16-17) (A) Would Jesus Smoke? Honestly can you imagine Jesus inhaling a cigarette? Can you picture the Lord blowing smoke in your face? NO! Jesus is our example of what a Christian should be. (ILL) My great-grandmother used to say, "If God ...read more

    based on 51 ratings
     | 10,939 views

    In order to understand the crucified life, we must: 1. Understand who God is. 2. Understand who we are. 3. Decide whose life we are going to live.

    There is a wonderful story of St. Francis of Assisi and one of his student monks. “One day Saint Francis and Brother Leo were walking down the road. Noticing that Leo was depressed, Francis turned and asked: ‘Leo, do you know what it means to be pure of heart?’ ‘Of course. It means to have no ...read more

    based on 38 ratings
     | 6,003 views

    I think it’s safe to say that the majority of us want to become everything God wants us to be, the problem is that we fall short of God’s perfect plan for our lives. Too often we take matters into our own hands and mess up God’s plan for us. We end up set

    Every sailor knows that you can’t ride out a storm with an overburdened ship. You’ll take on excess water and sink. The same goes for us, when we carry useless burdens around and a storm comes up – we’ll be in danger of sinking.

    Many of you came in here today carrying a burden, a load of care. The good news is that you can lighten your load, you can even get rid of your load altogether. Relax, you’re in the Lord’s house now, and I’ve got a feel’en everything’s gonna be alright! Amen! Our sermon comes from the Book of ...read more

    based on 30 ratings
     | 4,524 views

    When it comes to dying to ourselves: 1. Jesus is our example. 2. Willfulness is our problem. 3. Crucifixion is the answer.

    In Luke 20:17-18 Jesus tells one of his most mysterious parables. He begins by quoting Psalm 118:22: “The stone the builders rejected has become the capstone.” And then he says, “Everyone who falls on that stone will be broken to pieces, but he on whom it falls will be crushed.” What a strange ...read more

    based on 104 ratings
     | 34,471 views

    Jesus didn’t ask everyone he met to follow him. He asked the original twelve disciples–and He invited the Rich Young Ruler to follow him. The young man refused. Like many people, he was fooling himself about what it takes to have eternal life.

    Can You Pass a Camel Through the Eye of a Needle? Luke 18:18-30 By Dr. David O. Dykes INTRODUCTION During this Christmas season, there are plenty of Scrooges out there.

    The Lord loves His people so much that He can’t keep Himself from thinking about us. We are always on His mind.

    By: Donna J. Kazenske Psalm 40:5 – Many, O Lord my God, are Your wonderful works which You have done; and Your thoughts toward us cannot be recounted to You in order; if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered.

     | 13,628 views

    The child of God must recognize that in the midst of so many standards of living, there is only one that is right.

    2 Timothy 3:16-17 What’s Your Standard? Introduction If you know the pledge to the Bible, say it with me. “I pledge allegiance to the Bible, God’s holy word, I will make it a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my paths.

    Forsaking All To Follow One

     | 5,896 views

    What does it mean to forsake all? What does it mean to follow Him? What keeps us today from doing what the disciples did?

    In the preceding verses we see the miracle of fish. It wasn’t really a miracle at all. To Jesus it was the norm. He created the water for the fish, He created the fish for man, and He taught man how to catch the fish. He was just doing it at a more rapid pace. Just like when He quieted the ...read more

    Every one must go his own way God calls for him.

    This is a story format message which doesn’t make its point until the very end.

    About once every two or three years I get sick. It happened to me Sunday afternoon while I was delivering our son Kirk back to UC San Diego. Coughing, wheezing, runny nose, the whole shebang.
