    Trade In "I've Arrived" For "Let's Grow!" Series

    Contributed by Darrell Stetler Ii on Feb 8, 2005
    based on 29 ratings
     | 5,846 views

    A lot of people plateau because they think once they become a Christian, that’s it -- they’ve arrived. If you want to make progress, trade in that attitude for one that says, "I’m going to grow!" *HANDOUT INCLUDED*

    Trade-offs for a happy 2005. Everything plateaus when until you’re willing to make the trade-off. <ILLUS> Mt. Climber up Mt. Everest – started out with cameras, tripods, exotic foods, etc. Discarded them one by one. He had to make the trade-off to keep on climbing upward. Trade in “I’ve ...read more

    There were all kinds of people at the Cross. What distinguished these groups of people? The condition of their souls, their spiritual heart attitudes. Around the Cross of Jesus, we can see people who demonstrated some contrasting heart conditions.

    People At The Cross (Matt. 27:36-44, Luke 23:39-43, John 19:25-27) 1. A father and daughter we walking through a spacious prairie. 2. In the distance, they could see fire all around them.

    Contributed by Gary Washburn on Jul 11, 2002
    based on 119 ratings
     | 7,207 views

    When an umpire makes a bad call our sense of fairness has been violated. Sometimes we scream at God, "bad call" or "not fair God!" This attitude reveals some ugly things about us.

    Bad calls from religious umpires Romans 2:1-4 Intro: Ever seen umpire make a bad call? Crowd boo’s and blood pressure and anger rises. Our sense of fairness has been violated and we are ready to fight when it comes to fairness. We hear of a serial killer getting caught, convicted, then life in ...read more

    We’re not exempt from affliction, but God is working behind the scenes to bring good out of trouble. He’s not holding back; He’s involved. This should give us a better attitude toward suffering.

    Sermon Series on Romans 8> Reasons to be ENCOURAGED Reason #7, God has a plan! Rom 8:28-30 We look at our lives and sometimes wonder what God’s higher purpose must be. Paul has already stated that it’s difficult enough knowing what to pray about (26-27); it’s even harder to fathom why life can ...read more

     | 6,318 views

    Too often people in the world perceive Christianity as an exclusivist religion whose people are intolerant bigots. In contrast many Americans want to appear to be inclusivists, pluralists and accepting of people. Actually, when we have the right attitude

    The Virtue Of Kindeness (6 Of 10) Series

    Contributed by Jeff Armbrester on Apr 1, 2003
    based on 61 ratings
     | 4,327 views

    Kindness is not an attitude or emotion. We do no think of people as being kind simply because they do not hurt anybody. We regard people as being kind if they go out of their way, with no public recognition, to perform deeds of kindness.

    The Virtue of Kindness Part 6 The Core Virtues of the Christian Life Galatians 5:22-23; Micah 6:8 Jeff Armbrester Mamie Adams always went to a branch post office in her town because the postal employees there were friendly.

    We struggle against sins (actions), sin (attitude), and evil (forces greater than ourselves). We must have Christ’s help to keep from falling. (Delivered by gradually stretching down the chancel steps).

    Walking looks like the simplest thing in the world, unless and until. Walking is something we do without even thinking about it, unless and until. Unless you are a toddler, just learning to use your legs; then walking becomes a matter of holding on to the coffee table for dear life, taking two ...read more

    based on 65 ratings
     | 48,282 views

    Though the people wanted the blessings of God, they were not interested in allowing God to change their heart, their attitude & their actions. They wanted their religion to gain them special favor with God so that they would win the dog eat dog struggle

    ISAIAH 58:3-12 TRUE FASTING Job 32:17-20 / Matthew 23:13-36 Going through the motions of religion, even those of sacrifice and fasting, does not move God.

    Proposition: When you are suffering, it is easier to agonize over the loss of God’s outward blessing and proper relationship to God Himself, than keep an upbeat attitude and keep from sinning in one’s inward spirit.

    Thanksgivng Message. If there is a prevailing sin among God’s people, it is the "attitude of ingratitude." Why do saints, redeemed by grace, indwelt by the Spirit, given eternal life and a home in Heaven ... why do we forget to be thankful?

    How do we relate to people who are outside our church group? It is easy to judge and keep away - but Jesus calls us to a different attitude. We are to be those who keep building relationships no matter what.

     | 55,449 views

    We are not just conquerors but more than conquerors through Christ, not just in some situations, but in all circumstances of life. The ground of this confidence is His great love for us. Therefore let us fight with an attitude of faith, and reliance.

    Believers in those times faced many trials and sufferings. They were persecuted and opposed, because of their faith in Jesus Christ. • We got to know it in history, as well as in the Scriptures. • Paul mentioned some of these difficulties in verse 35 - trouble or hardship or persecution or famine ...read more
