    The Gift Is In The Box

    Contributed by Rodney V Johnson on Dec 25, 2018
     | 7,450 views

    This is my Christmas 2018 message. It's about having an intimate relationship with Jesus versus having a superficial relationship with Him.

    The Gift Is In The Box Scriptures: Prov. 20:11; John 3:16; 1 Cor. 13:11; Luke 7:36-50 In 2017 I did a series entitled “It’s Time to Grow Up.” In that series I shared with you the differences between a mature Christian and one that is not mature. One of the foundation Scriptures was found in ...read more

    This message unpacks some of the statements made about baptism and leads the believer, hopefully, to make a clear decision about their own theology of baptism. This message preceded a full immersion, believers' baptism.

    The Gift of Baptism Scripture: Acts 8:26-40 We’re going to consider several passages of scripture today, but this one is the key passage for what I think is the main consideration for today - at least it was for me this week. Today is Baptism Sunday. It’s a very special day in the ...read more

    The Apostle Peter learns that God plays no favorites, that everyone matters to God! The Easter message is good news, that all our sins can be forgiven, that we can have hope of a new tomorrow. (Can be modified for other than Easter.)

    Acts 10:34-43 The Greatest Gift When my wife and I started a family, we formed our own family traditions, including for Easter. When the kids awoke on Easter Sunday morning, each child would find a colorful basket just for him or her, a basket full of Easter candy, small toys, and that wonderful ...read more

    April 10, 2016 Morning Worship Text: 1 Corinthians 12:4-6, 31 Subject: the Holy Spirit Title: The Greater Gifts – Holy Spirit part 1 I picked up one of our pamphlets on the 16 fundamental doctrines just to read over it and refresh myself with it.

    Peter doesn't have any money to give to the beggar, but Peter does heal him and the man is able to walk.

    Acts 3:1-10 “The Good Gift” INTRODUCTION The writer of the Gospel of Mark understood that the life, death and resurrection of Jesus was, “The Beginning of the Good News of Jesus Christ the Son of God.” Jesus’ walk on earth was the first chapter. Following this ...read more

    Though more precious than gold, wisdom is not hidden like gold is. Wisdom is all around us and is easily accessible for all who seek it.

    Proverbs 8:1-11, 22-26 “The Gift of Wisdom” INTRODUCTION Normally we think that wisdom comes with age, but not always. Sometimes it comes from the mouths of children. · Patrick, age 10, said, “Never trust a dog to watch your food.” · Michael, 14, said, “When ...read more

    Gifts And Growth

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on May 21, 2023
     | 1,479 views

    In these verses we learn that our Lord Jesus Christ has given spiritual gifts to each believer. And that there is a purpose for the gifts. Too often many believers do not use the spiritual gifts that have been given to them. Surely our Lord does not want us to waste them.

    Alba 5-21-2023 GIFTS AND GROWTH Ephesians 4:7-16 Last Sunday was Mother's Day and my wife, Janine, was given several gifts. One of the gifts was a pre-paid card for a restaurant where we sometimes go. Guess what, we went there this past week and she intended to share, but when I paid, I ...read more

    Within one body, there are many individual members with specific and unique gifts. Our diversity does not create division or discord; in fact, it adds to the beauty and harmony of the whole. Such diversity within the body is within the Lord’s sovereign design for His church.

    The Gift of Grace Ephesians 4: 7-11 As we come to the text today, we must bear in mind the preceding verses. Paul has spoken at length regarding our unity in the Lord. We have been called to walk worthy of our calling, serving and loving one another, while endeavoring to keep the unity of the ...read more

    The Gifts Given

    The congregation may understand that each of them, by virtue of being a believer, have a spiritual gift given to them and that they are expected to use them in a humble fashion. 

    Introduction: This scripture implores the reader to consider the fact that any grace that they have been given has been given to them by God. It tells us not to think too highly of ourselves. If you have an obvious gift from the Lord, it's not because you're extra spiritual. As a matter of ...read more

    At Christmas, we celebrate Jesus's birthday. He gave US a great gift! What was it? And what gift would he like from us?

    This was the talk for our 2025 carol service. The children would stay in, and it needed to be a maximum of ten minutes. On a particular day every year, my family makes a big fuss of me. They blow up balloons. They get a cake and put some candles on it. They sing a song. They give me cards. They ...read more

    On the shortest day of the year, Jesus offers us the gift of Hope

    How often have you heard the phrase or description “It’s the most wonderful time of the year”? But what if it’s not? What if Christmas doesn’t bring alive warm happy memories for you?

    When Jesus prayed in the garden, he was praying for the Joy he had given at the first Christmas

    The words that were just read, came from the prayer of Jesus, in the garden just before he was betrayed by Judas and arrested by the temple guards.

    This was the conclusion of our series, and it was our Christmas Eve Service

    As she made her way along the road, she wondered about the sense of it all. Although she had agreed she still couldn’t understand why.
