The Passover Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Sep 1, 2005

The Passover is a wonderful picture of the plight of sinful man and the provision of a gracious God - a God who judges sin with death but gives grace through the blood of the Lamb of God.

Chapter 12 of Exodus is one of the most important chapters of this book, and perhaps one of the most important of the Old Testament. The reason is that it paints for us a picture of the human condition, and God’s plan to save mankind. The family of Jacob came to Egypt because of a famine - God ...read more

Lessons From the Life of Moses: There Are No Excuses with God Exodus 3:11- 4:17 “Excuses,” some wise sage once said, “are like armpits. Everyone has them and they usually all stink.” I was struck by a news article published by UPI that listed the most absurd excuses The Metropolitan ...read more

Rose Colored Glasses Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Sep 15, 2005

The blush of first love wears off quickly for the children of Israel as God brings them some small tests to see how much they will trust Him. How much do you trust God? We also see the keys to spiritual warfare demonstrated.

New love is always interesting. We used to have a saying "you’re looking through rose-colored glasses." It meant that no matter how the other person was in reality, they always looked "rosy" to you because you were in love. Having rose colored glasses is a danger sign for a relationship that needs ...read more

Who Do You Listen To? Series

Contributed by Tom Fuller on Sep 22, 2005

Who do you let speak into your life? Is it someone who sees what God has done and worships him or is it someone who is an enemy of God like Amalek? Also - the difference between approaching God at Mt Sinai and at Mt Zion.

There are some strong connections between chapter 17 and 18. They both tell us of encounters with non-Israelites. The Amalekites "greeted" Moses with warfare - and Moses had to respond by appointing men to a task (fight) while he administrated the battle and receiving help from his assistants. In ...read more

Leadership Trails Series

Contributed by Brent Baker on Oct 18, 2005

There are no leaders who haven’t experienced somekind of trail. This sermon shows us how Moses overcame those trials.

Just a few weeks ago we saw John Roberts sworn in as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court. We watched as he was grilled over and over about his stance on certain issues. And now sometime in the near future we will see Harriet Miers going through the same things. But I doubt if either one of them ...read more

Contributed by Melvin Shelton on May 27, 2005

Can I Be A Friend Of God?

The Lord spoke with Moses face to face, as a man speaks with his friend. Can I be a friend of God?Can we, each one of us, be friends of God?

Can I be a friend of God? Will God speak with me (Exodus 33:11) ‘face to face, as a man speaks with his friend’? Like Moses, can I be a friend of God? Can we, each one of us, be friends of God?

Listening To I Am Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 6, 2003

Listening to ourselves is also listening to God. If we listen in availability, God will respond in our own history. If we listen for responsibility, God will offer His presence.

There come those times in life when we do not trust what we have heard. Something is said, our ears pick it up, but we don’t quite trust it. We don’t know whether we really heard what we thought we heard. Or we don’t know whether to believe what we heard. Or maybe we don’t trust the speaker. Or, ...read more

Listening For Freedom Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 6, 2003

We fear freedom for reasons both internal and external -- "broken spirit and cruel slavery". Choose to be a liberator for someone else and you can break that slavery.

We are made to be free; in fact, we need freedom. Every person needs freedom. That’s obvious. That’s what God has made us for. The Scripture says, “For freedom Christ has set us free.” We say we want to be free. We want to be free. But therein lies a problem. The problem is that that’s not ...read more

Listening For Leadership Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 6, 2003

Our view of leadership is that it is aggressive, know-it-all. But in reality it is bearing witness to God’s power, not our own; and leaders are qualified to be leaders by what they do NOT know.

Do you know the story of the woman who liked to sit for an hour or so every evening at her front window? She would just sit, looking at the traffic racing by. After the children had been coached through their homework, after her husband had been reminded about the jobs on his "To do" list; after ...read more

Listening For Abuse Series

Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 6, 2003

Many of us are only a short step from the abuse of other races, of women, or of children. We must listen to our own hearts and must correct this by exposure to others and to the power of Christ.

I For the last several Sundays we’ve been doing an exercise in listening to ourselves. We’ve put ourselves into Moses’ life and we’ve listened to what we feel about ourselves. I hope it’s been productive. It certainly has spoken to me. I hope you’ve been able to listen to yourselves under the ...read more

I Am

Contributed by Eric Sellgren on Jan 13, 2001

The secret that lies behind God`s Name

"I AM"! What a strange name for a God! Surely there`s a better name for God than that. Look at the Who`s Who of the gods, Ashteroth, Baal, Chemosh, Dagon, those are names you can get your teeth into. But "I AM"? (Yahweh in the Hebrew). That comes pretty low in the pecking order - only Zeus comes ...read more
