    Enemies Pt. 2 –Intelligence Training Text Backdrop for Series: Remember the backdrop I set up last week. There is a time for peace, but there is also a time for war.

    Love For A Lifetime

    Defining love has become difficult in our society. True love must originate with God and reflect through our lives.

    Love For a Lifetime 1 John 2:3-6 Love is a word that has become obscure and ambiguous in our day. It is often talked about but seldom is it clearly defined. Love is what some have called a “weasel-word.” Love may mean anything, or nothing. It has lost its moorings and stands for ...read more

    How To Be Invisible Series

     | 3,697 views

    There is a way to do wonderful things for God and fade into the background. Our human nature wants to get the credit and be the focus. Our godly nature tells us otherwise. Learn how to be an active part of God’s plan by disappearing.

    Where have we been so far? Chapter 5: rely and focus on the Lord, not on ourselves. Make, keep, and fix broken relationships as God fixed the broken relationship with us. Now in Chapter 6 we move to being an active part in focusing others on God—the source of life. What’s the use of having ...read more

    The last of three parables in Matthew following Jesus’ teaching on end times. Perhaps what is most important is to realize that what we don’t do could be more important than what we do as followers of Jesus.

    The Parables of Jesus Goats and Sheep Matthew 25:31-46 September 13, 2009 This week we are going to look at the last parable of three that deals with the end times or judgment when Jesus comes again. The first two are the parables of the ten virgins and the talents. This week is the parable of the ...read more

    Are You Getting God's Best?

    Life change starts with the renewing of our mind. We need to (1) watch what we feed our mind, and (2) not quench the Spirit (1 Thess 5:19) when He prompts, reminds and guides us with the Word of God.

    Last week, we talked about surrendering to God because we believe that God has our best in mind. • When we honestly confess our willingness to submit to Him as Lord, He steps in and guides us in ways we do not expect and we will experience His greatest blessings. • We believe it ...read more

    The Most Important Job In The World

    Contributed by James Snyder on Jan 28, 2013
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,443 views

    The most important job anybody could ever have is raising a family. We have a divine trust in this area and will be held accountable to God for our success or failure.

    Introduction: Some jobs are more important than other jobs. I think the importance of a certain job has to do with who is asking you to do it. In Genesis 24, Abraham, well advanced in years, is giving to his servant the most important job that servant could ever do. Abraham’s son, Isaac was ...read more

    Three groups can help us understand our resistance to trusting in the Resurrection of Jesus.

    I read a story of a man who was on his way to the airport to catch a plane. He came to an intersection where his wife had told him he needed to turn left to get to the airport. It was a narrow little road and he was on a board road that also would let I see some of nature’s beauty. He decided ...read more

    “Boy Falls Asleep During Church And Dies” Do you know how long I’ve wanted to preach on this text about Eutychus? With an opening like that you’re expecting this sermon to be about the dangers of sleeping during church, aren’t you? Of course you could counter that the ...read more

     | 11,647 views

    In the Gospel of John, we are invited to “come and see” what Jesus is like. John reveals Jesus to us through His seven “I am” claims, seven miracles, and seven sermons.

    COME AND SEE #1: JESUS IS… THE WORD JOKE: A hunter walking through the jungle found a huge dead elephant with a pigmy standing beside it. Amazed, he asked: "Did you kill that?" The pigmy said, "Yes." The hunter asked, "How could a little guy like you kill a huge beast like that?" "I killed ...read more

    The fullest expression and revelation of God's glory come in the form of an infant child, the Son of God born in a humble stall.

    We’ve been talking about the glory of God, and we were studying the glory of God primarily through the Exodus stories where the descriptions of God’s glory were these awe-inspiring displays of power, of majesty, the pillar of fire, God on the mountain with Moses, God seated on the ...read more

    Talk 7 in a series of 8. This talk owes a great deal to Bill Hybels book Becoming a Contagious Christian. Don’t try to be anyone else, just be youself. Find out how God wants YOU to share Jesus with others.

    [Note to the Reader: This sermon owes a great deal to the excellent book by Bill Hybels and Mark Mittelberg entitled Becoming a Contagious Christian] St. Paul writes, ‘There are different gifts, but the same spirit’ (1 Cor. 12:4); and later in his letter to the Corinthians he writes these things: ...read more

    The Beattitudes - Introduction September 28, 2008 Matthew 5:1-12 I would like to do an informal survey. I have one very simple question . . . Who would like to be blessed by God today?
