  • Now That's Living!

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 17, 2001
    based on 51 ratings
     | 5,181 views

    Funeral service for Margaret Waddy, retired social worker and community ministry volunteer who, in dementia, became concerned about the depletion of her finances.

    I don’t know anybody who has all they really want. Not really. Not everything. Oh, some of you will piously pretend to be satisfied, but, in my experience, all of us fantasize about having more. Occasionally I watch “Who Wants To Be a Millionaire?” and I will shout answers at a deaf TV screen, ...read more

    You may be going through a winter but SPRING IS ON THE WAY!

    PRESSING ON DESPITE THE CIRCUMSTANCES INTRODUCTION: During the week Elaine and I attended a Pastors Prayer meeting As each one was sharing their needs we would be in prayer for those needs When it came to our fellowship Elaine and I were sharing how many in the fellowship had been under attack ...read more

     | 4,684 views

    how to discover God’s way of peace for your life

    HOW CAN I FIND THE PEACE OF GOD? Scriptural References: Php 4:6-7, Ps 100:3-5, Php 4:8, Jn 14:26-28 There is a peace that passes or goes beyond the normal range of our understanding. There was peace in the garden of Eden - but it was lost. That peace was won back in a battle that appeared to ...read more

  • The Purpose Of Temptation

    Contributed by Chris Smith on Jul 21, 2001
    based on 239 ratings
     | 14,440 views

    Our immediate reaction to a heartache, or a successful achievement that took years to overcome, must be one of getting ready for the next hurdle. If you don’t have any hurdles to jump in your life – if there aren’t any goals set for you right now – if yo

    The Purpose of Temptation Chris Smith Matthew 4:1-2 Oscar Wilde once said that he could resist everything except temptation. An old cartoon had the two characters looking at each other with a caption below them saying, “How come opportunity knocks only once, but temptation beats the door down ...read more

  • Presenting Our Mouths: Swallowing, Spitting, Speaking Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 23, 2001
    based on 58 ratings
     | 12,504 views

    In order to be effective witnesses, we must first be knowledgeable -- swallowing God’s word; must then be cleansed spiritually -- spitting out whatever is no longer appropriate; and then speak with confidence and passion. Mini-messages with props.

    Our mouths get us into trouble. One of you said that to me the other day. You had opened your mouth to voice an opinion about something that should be done in the community where you live, and before you knew it, you were chairing the committee to get it done. Nobody had even noticed you were in ...read more

  • Immediately Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 5, 2001
    based on 39 ratings
     | 7,655 views

    This was done as a dramatic monologue, as if I were Mark; and costumed according to Mark 14:51-52! It makes use of one of Mark’s favorite words, "immediately", and argues that Jesus expects immediate response to His call.

    What’s happening? What’s going on here? I came as quickly as I could. If you linger, you will miss Him. He waits for no one. He acts immediately. He is the most urgent person I’ve ever known. He just does not wait for anything. He acts immediately. So, again, what’s happening here? What ...read more

  • It Wasn't The Pacific Ocean Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 12, 2001
    based on 40 ratings
     | 5,060 views

    Jesus’ handling of and interpretation of His witness at the seashore is a parable of our witness in shaky, stormy circumstances.

    A few weeks ago I caught the TV show, “America’s Funniest Videos.” You may know that on that show there are clips of poignant scenes from the human drama, as captured by someone’s home video camera. This particular clip caught my attention. A father was trying to show his small son how to fish, ...read more

  • Lasting Love

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 13, 2001
    based on 26 ratings
     | 5,771 views

    Funeral sermon for Mrs. Lola Black, who died suddenly only five months after her husband’s death.

    In March, when we gathered in this place to say farewell to a creative, innovative man, we did not dream that five months later we would gather again to bid adieu to his cherished helpmate. Charlie and Lola are together again, in death as in life; and it’s almost beyond belief. It just does not ...read more

  • Pain Ignores The Appointment Book Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 20, 2001
    based on 41 ratings
     | 5,688 views

    Many of us dislike dealing with unplanned events, but those who need us need us now. So either we paralyze or we panic, unless we learn to work together inside God’s grace and unless we discern that He is giving us time in which to grow our faith.

    I have the utmost admiration for anybody who can live amid constant crises. I cannot do that very well. If you are the kind of person who can keep your sanity when there are ten unplanned things happening around you, I salute you. How do you do it? That’s not me. That’s not my skill. I like ...read more

  • When Thou Hast Done, Thou Hast Not Done Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 25, 2001
    based on 22 ratings
     | 6,027 views

    Sermon prepared for observance of my fifteenth anniversary as pastor; confession that, like Joseph of Arimathea, I have waited too long to be bold and then have done my work all to alone; but that the basis for pastor and people is the grace of the Cross

    If I know anything at all about life, I know that all of us want significance. We want to know that our lives have had meaning. We want to know, after we have invested a few years, that we have counted for something. We want significance. Years ago, I heard a lecture by Victor Frankl. Some of ...read more

  • Put Your Pencils Down

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Sep 1, 2001
    based on 44 ratings
     | 7,677 views

    A Labor Day and Communion message, dealing with the sources of satisfaction in work. Designed for audience participation.

    Labor Day, and school is starting again. I wonder, do they still do the same things as when I was in school? Do they still have the same rituals? Maybe not. Things do change. Dodgeball, for example. Now that was THE game in my day. You had the right to throw the ball as hard as you could and ...read more

  • Thy Kingdom Come: Still Blind And Mute Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Sep 10, 2001
    based on 37 ratings
     | 7,963 views

    Praying for the Kingdom to come is an awesome responsibility, for some of us remain blind and mute despite Jesus’ healing, criticizing those who are different and causing divisions.

    Our backyard is heavily populated. It is home to birds and bugs, to snails and occasional snakes, and most of all, our backyard is populated with moles. The turf is home to those burrowing creatures, moles. I have the twisted ankle to prove it, thanks to sinking in one of the burrows. Our ...read more

  • Brought Down

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Dec 3, 2001
    based on 34 ratings
     | 2,698 views

    A brief message intended to serve as a transition from a choral concert of Advent music, featuring our children and youth choirs, to the Communion table.

    “He has brought down the powerful from their thrones, and lifted up the lowly.” Children bring things down. All sorts of things. Around our place we are learning that a ten-month-old can move very quickly and has a vice-like grasp. Things will come down if they are not moved beyond reach. But ...read more

  • The Prophet Jonah

    Contributed by Ken Smith on Dec 19, 2001
    based on 56 ratings
     | 9,641 views

    During the reign of Jeroboam II God sent Jonah to Nineveh to call its people to repent of their sins; Nineveh surprisingly repented but Jonah was unexcited about God’s grace.

    Jonah was a prophet sent by God to proclaim a message in a foreign land of Assyria, unlike other prophets who voiced their message to their home lands of Israel and Judah. Assyria was a constant threat to the people of Israel. To the Israelites, Nineveh was a byword for evil. Famous for their ...read more

  • In Terror, Peace

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Dec 23, 2001
    based on 74 ratings
     | 8,715 views

    Our times of terror are like those into which Jesus was born. Then and now we try to carve out peace with government, wealth, ingenuity. But Jesus is the source of peace because His life was given to service, His dependence on things was nil, and He ope

    And on earth, peace. What an ancient longing! What a long-standing frustration! On earth, peace. I don’t know what language angels sing in, and I suppose the shepherds would have known only Aramaic, but we have grown accustomed to choirs singing the angelic words in Latin: “Gloria in excelsis ...read more
