    Bridge Builder: Lost People Matter To God

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 919 views

    This shepherd was able to rejoice with his friends and neighbors because his lost sheep was found. He was overjoyed with the rescue of this one, lost sheep.

    Opening illustration: Did you ever have a kid in your neighborhood that always hid so good nobody could find him? We did. After a while we would give up on him and go off, leaving him to rot wherever he was. Soon or later he would show up all-mad because we didn’t keep looking for him. And we would ...read more

    Jesus full of the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit leads him into the wilderness. God also leads us into wilderness experiences.

    “Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, left the Jordan and was led by the Spirit into the wilderness, where for forty days he was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and at the end of them he was hungry. The devil said to him, “If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become ...read more

    Our ministry of reconciliation and sharing our faith has barriers. Going to deal with the most common.

    Background to passage: after the idea of immense suffering in our lives, Paul talks about heaven. Please make sure you define heaven in biblical ways. Same with Jesus. Since he was talking about heaven, he noted that we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, therefore we persuade ...read more

    The Road To Hell... Where Does It Lead?

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 5, 2025
     | 327 views

    The title of my sermon is asking a question, the question is, the road to hell, where does it lead? This will not be a Joel Osteen sermon. I will show you from the Word of God the answer to that question, “the road to hell, where does it lead” in a few minutes.

    But I want to ask you another question, how did the Lord Jesus preach His sermons when He was here on earth? We do not have to do any surmising, to find the answer to that question, all we have to do is turn to the scriptures. How? It depended on who He was preaching too… (1)HE PREACHED SOFT ...read more

    A plea for expository preaching.

    Why I Prefer Expository Preaching To say that there is a great division in the church today over styles of preaching may be somewhat of an understatement. Among Fundamentalists, there is almost an all out war. The battle tends to lie mainly in the heat of the emotions rather than facts. ...read more

    There is only one way to the home everyone longs for, whether they know it or not

    I’m starting this sermon with a really old illustration because things have gotten so much worse that to introduce it with a contemporary example would take more than one sermon to adequately address it. So think yourself back a couple of decades, to 2002. That’s when football coach Ron Brown was ...read more

    Today we move to an unnamed mystery man. We established that the first verses in Matthew’s gospel are perhaps the most neglected in the New Testament; and this morning we’re going to look at one of the most widely known sections of Scripture.

    Three years ago I began a message with a Christmas Quiz. I recently came across some additional questions to test our knowledge of the Nativity. 1. Jesus was born in what town? a. Jerusalem b. Nazareth c. Bethlehem d. Milwaukee 2. Why didn’t Joseph and Mary stay at the inn? a. It was too ...read more

    Love is an expression, not a feeling. It involves personal sacrifice.

    I. Ideal Love a. There was a Dad who took his kids to do a little shopping. As they drove up, they spotted an eighteen-wheeler parked with a big sign on it that said, "Petting Zoo." The kids jumped up in a rush and asked, "Daddy, Daddy. Can we go? Please. Please. Can we go?" "Sure," He said ...read more

    The Great Commission is intriguing in what it says and what it doesn’t. Consider the mystery & the power of Christian baptism.

    OPENING: A drunk stumbled along a baptismal service on Sunday afternoon down by the river. He proceeded to walk down into the water and stood next to the Preacher. The minister turned and noticed the old drunk and said, "Mister, Are you ready to find Jesus?" The drunk looks back and says, "Yes, ...read more

    People had been waiting a long time for the Messiah to come. When he comes the voices that are heard are vital to understanding the event

    I think one of the things people these days find hard is having to wait. Delayed gratification is one of those things that have been forgotten in our age of fast food, instant communication and short attention spans. I see you can even buy an air conditioner now, that you can telephone on your way ...read more

    Jesus died for the church, wherein we find our greatest selves.

    Jesus and the Church For hours on a spring day, Jesus hung on the Roman cross, jeered at by those of his nation- the Jews- and Gentile Romans, alike. Those who had sought him during his ministry turned on him. He was abandoned by those too fearful to be identified with him. His closest friends ran ...read more

    Now the relevance of this passage of Scripture is this: THE LORD STILL REVEALS HIMSELF IN ROUGH TIMES. And certainly, the infant days of this Twenty-First Century are ROUGH TIMES!

    “And I turned to see the voice that spake with me. And being turned, I saw …” During the ruthless reign and rule of the Roman Emperor Domitian (the last year of his reign in the year A.D. 95) something momentous and marvelous happened: the Risen Christ pulled back the veil of mystery which ...read more
