Sermons on More Than Enough:

Lawnmowers Or Motorcycles?

Contributed by Bruce Ball on Jun 25, 2005

A sermon that shows the more risks one takes, the more one is fulfilled in life. And, the more risk a Christian takes for Christ, the more fulfillling His walk with the Lord will be.

The word “walk” in the Bible often symbolizes the way in which we live; the way we act; and the way we conduct ourselves. It often depicts life as a journey, and it shows that Christians are people who travel around to other places. To ‘walk by faith’ is actually to live in the ’confident ...read more

Developing A Personal Walk With God

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Oct 22, 2017

In Moses' frank conversation with God, we learn to pray for those who rebel against God, hunger for the presence of God, long for more of God, and shine with the light of God. As we seek after God, God will reveal more of himself to us.

Exodus 33:12-23 Developing a Personal Walk with God Today’s conversation between Moses and God is pretty gutsy. Moses seems very comfortable with God, even to challenge God: “You don’t go with us, we don’t go!” Moses is praying real prayers here, nothing held back. And what is even more amazing ...read more

When God Asks For Your Isaac Series

Contributed by Dr. Larry Petton on Jan 17, 2014

God asked Abraham to lay down his Isaac. His story is an incredible picture of the Cross and how God loved us enough to surrender His Son, Jesus, for our sin. Do we love Him enough to surrender our Isaac today?

It has been said that Christians are like tea bags……they always do best when they get in hot water. In Genesis chapter 22, we find Abraham in the hottest water of his life as God tries his faith. The Bible teaches three key truths about trials in the life of a believer: 1) Trials come to ...read more

God And Creation

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 7, 2021

Someone has said that Genesis 1:1 is read more than any verse in the Bible. This is especially true in January, since many begin the year with the determination to read the Bible through that year, but often that is as far as they get.

However, if they only read this one verse, it will tell them a great deal about the God of the Bible. This one scripture is considered to be the FOUNDATION which the Word of God is built upon. Since this is the case, is it any wonder that Genesis 1:1 is specifically targeted by those who try to ...read more
