    I-Give Series

    based on 23 ratings
     | 25,180 views

    The early church sold their lands to help the poor and needy amongst them. Were they setting the pattern for a communist commune? Were they socialists? Or was there something more basic going on here?

    OPEN: The past two weeks we’ve been talking about iPods. Ever since Apple Computers began marketing these miniature music machines in 2001 they’ve been a popular item with both adults and kids alike. iPods have been marketed in various shapes and sizes and colors, and there are all kinds of ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,761 views

    We fall in love with Jesus because we are needy and He needs nothing. We have nothing and He is pure gift. So we sing praise to God.

    September 9, 2012 Verbum Domini Why do so many, hearing the Good News of Jesus Christ, hesitate to believe it? Why do we, baptized and confirmed in Christ, sometimes fail to trust in His Word? Why do I, despite my understanding of my weakness and my need, turn my back on His call? The failure ...read more

    Contributed by Donnie Martin on Jan 12, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,811 views

    Revival always begins with recognizing one’s neediness. Repentance of sin must then follow, along with resolute commitment to God and His righteousness. Such was the case during the reign of King Asa.

    Repentance That Resulted In Judah’s Revival Text: 2 Chron.15: 1, 2, 8-15 Intro: In the text under consideration today, we have the wonderful story of man named Asa, who was the king of Judah. Though Asa loved God, he found himself the leader of a nation that was spiritually perverse, and ...read more

     | 5,126 views

    Although Jesus needed some R and R by sailing away to a different location on the lake, He wound up ministering to the needy multitude, by puting others first and Himself last.

    MARK 6:30-34 WEARY WAYFARERS WELCOMED I. RESPECTFUL: Mark 6:30-32 A. Receiving. B. Remonstrated. C. Retreating? Mark 6:32 II. RABBLE: Mark 6:33 A. Recognized. B. Responded. C. ...read more

    A Changed Church Series

    Contributed by Allen James on Sep 5, 2010
     | 5,002 views

    Imagine the transformation in a community when the Church embraces Jesus' call toward giving to the needy out of the overflow of our hearts. Today's message explores Matthew 6:1-4.

    A Changed Church • Matthew 6:1, 2-4 OPENING ILLUSTRATION: Acts 4… In today’s world, charity is practiced on a wide scale and is thought often times to be the natural product of the intrinsic goodness of the human spirit… or in light of the New Age concept of Karma – ...read more

    The Parable Of The Lost Coin Series

    Contributed by Ricardo Rodriguez on Nov 1, 2012
     | 9,592 views

    This parable is a story that had a happy ending just like the parable of the lost sheep. Both illustrate the indescribable mercy of God for the lost. In this story, the needy soul is compared with a lost coin.

    Ice Breaker: Do you like stories with happy endings? Biblical Reading: Lucas 15:8-10 INTRODUCTION: This parable is a story that had a happy ending just like the parable of the lost sheep.

    Everyone’s not expected to fly overseas and devote their lives to the poor and needy. Everyone is expected, though, to do everything in their power to help those who are called to do that.

    Obadiah - Who is my Brother On Saint Patrick’s Day 2013, two people got in a fight in a Boston subway. After a heated argument, a woman gets up and starts brutally punching a man in the face. The other riders on the subway did nothing -- they just sat in their seats and watched. Many of them ...read more

    Contributed by D Marion Clark on Apr 26, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,387 views

    In light of God’s Word, we need to examine how well we are doing in the area not only of providing care for the needy, but of defending their cause and seeing that their voice is heard.

    Isaiah 1:21-26 Purging the Dross 7/9/00 D. Marion Clark Introduction What we come to the Bible for is content. We value the Bible for what it has to reveal to us from God. But then there are times when you just can help but admire the way it is written. Isaiah is the acclaimed writer among ...read more

    Christians Love God And Love Others Because They Love God.

    Contributed by Richard Schwedes on Nov 24, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,742 views

    This sermon explores that Jesus emphasises that living as Christians results in us loving God and loving others because we love God. And as we do we interact with Jesus because Jesus is with the needy.

    Today is Christ the King Sunday. The last Sunday of the church year. And as the last day of the church year, we are focussing on the last days, and our Gospel reading for the day from Matthew 25:31-46 highlights one of the ways how Jesus as King makes of a decision of who receives eternal life ...read more

    Motives For Giving Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 13, 2023
     | 3,721 views

    It is important for us not just to give to the Lord, but to give with the right motives. Jesus rebukes those who gave with the wrong motives, so we need to carefully consider our motives and how our motives align with God’s purposes and glorify God.

    What motivates people to give? You could read about results of research on this topic about what part of giving is motivated by self interest and what part is motivated by serving others. Our interest here is not the human psychology side of giving motivation, but the biblical motivation. What do ...read more

     | 4,128 views

    Do we understand our calling to be Christ to the needy & poor? Francis of Assisi & Mother Theresa are illustartions in this message that links the parable fo teh sheep & goats to the Easter Emmaus story.

    Luke 24:13-35 Matthew 25:31-46 Isaiah 53:1-3 This Emmaus scripture is a strange one isn’t it? Friends walking with not just a close friend but their leader; yet despite knowing him so well they fail to recognise Him. Yet it is not just a case of the risen Christ being so different to the Jesus ...read more

    Paul’s goal in visiting various churches: To encourage and strengthen the saints so that they may stay true to the Lord and be effective witness. And to finish taking up the collections for the needy believers in Jerusalem.

    Introduction Illustration: A Missionary in Africa was once asked if he really liked what he was doing. His response was shocking. "Do I like this work?" he said.

    based on 5 ratings
     | 15,370 views

    Jesus stressed the need to help the poor and needy. It's a powerful commandment, but there are those who would warp it to meet their own agendas (rather than God's). But how would they do that?

    OPEN: Chicago is just about to approve a new entitlement. They intend to give 1,000 unemployed families $500 per month with no strings attached (total of $6 million per year). The argument seems to be that automation is robbing people of jobs and so this is intended to put money in the pockets of ...read more

    Looking For The Escape Clause?...the Good Samaritan

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 12, 2022
     | 3,068 views

    The story of the Good Samaritan was Jesus' way of blasting our excuses for trying to get out of obeying God to demonstrate compassion for the needy. An escape clause is a device in a contract to elude responsibility!

    LOOKING FOR THE ESCAPE CLAUSE?...The Good Samaritan Luke 10:25-37 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: 3 LAWYER JOKES 1. JOKE 1: A lawyer died and went to Heaven. “There must be some mistake,” the lawyer argued. “I’m too young to die. I’m only 55.” “Fifty-five?” said Saint Peter. “No, according to our ...read more
