    After the feeding of the five thousand, Jesus told his disciples to pick up the fragments and place them into a basket. Why? Three thoughts: To remind them of their miracle, their mission, and of their Manna from Heaven.

    Title: “A Basket Case” After the feeding of the five thousand, Jesus told his disciples to pick up the fragments and place them into a basket. Why?

    There’s an old saying, "To lead people walk, behind them." To lead others to Glory, that’s another story. Let’s examine the road that leads to Heaven together!

    Introduction Most of those my age called him "Little Joe" I can remember sitting on the floor on Sunday nights, 8:00 PM and watching him with anticipation ride up on his painted pony with his Dad (Ben) and two older brothers "Hoss and Adam."

    Many thanks to my dear friend Jim Miller who is in heaven now for this outline. The reasons why God allowed Job to suffer as he did and the same reasons apply for us today

    JOB 1:6-12 "WHY DID GOD LET JOB SUFFER?" A) The very name of Job means persecuted! * Oldest book in the Bible, written by Moses. * The days of Job were probably about the time of Abraham! * Job was a very wealthy man! * Numerous children and abundant livestock were symbols of wealth in that ...read more

     | 6,612 views

    Remembering Christmas: It was the long walk of Jesus from heaven to earth that gave us the greatest gift of all. Unwrap the Babe in the manger and discover how great God’s gift really is.

    There are many ways to look at Christmas, depending on who you are and where you are: 1. For the retail merchant, it looks like up to one-third of his annual income. 2. For the atheist and agnostic, it’s a time for parties—revelry--fun and games and the escape from the drudgery of life’s ...read more

    Luke 12:13-21 “Care and Feeding of the Money Tree” INTRODUCTION Video presentation: “Contentment—Deep Thoughts by a Shallow Christian” We laugh at the absurdity of the shallow Christian’s remarks, yet, how often our lives mirror his thoughts. We often ...read more

    The Cost Of Discipleship Series

    Contributed by Hugh W. Davidson on Apr 11, 2009
    based on 7 ratings
     | 16,595 views

    Christianity isn’t a place where people can laze around until the day they die and then slink into heaven. We’re either serious now or we aren’t serious at all.

    The cost of discipleship Luke 14:25-35 God was talking with Adam and He said, “You really need a helper, don’t you?” And Adam answered, “Yeah, I really do.” So God said, “What if I make a woman? She’ll be perfect for you. She’ll be beautiful. She’ll rub your back ...read more

    It is the worldly who are poor, and it is believers who are rich. Our treasure is in heaven, and we should set our minds “on the things above, not on the things that are on earth” (Colossians 3:2)

    Keys to Happiness 01/04/09 PM Reading: Psalms 37:1-11 Text: Hebrews 13:5-6 I was flipping channels the other night and I happened upon one of the many cable news outlets which was conducting an interview of someone who had suffered some amount of financial loss in one of the recently publicized ...read more

     | 3,631 views

    Why do we bring up the bread and wine from the back of church at the offertory? What is heaven like? Does God prefer a big splash and fanfare or big results done quietly?

    If you are picking up an Agatha Christie and you are impatient you’ll turn to the last page of the novel to find the answer. But of course first of all you have to know the question, which in an Agatha Christie book is “Who was the murderer”.By the end of this morning sermons I ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,586 views

    What will life be like in heaven? We'll have bodies that are physical, permanent, recognizable, and spiritual. We will have relationships so vital with Christ and each other that marriage will no longer be needed.

    Luke 20:27-38 Relationships in the Hereafter Sometimes we are forced to say good-bye to those we love. And in those most trying of times, we hold onto the biblical idea of a great reunion of all believers in a place called heaven. But in today’s scripture Jesus tells us there won’t be marriage as ...read more

    “And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast saying ‘God be merciful to me a sinner’” Luke 18:13.

    Introduction: Our theme for today’s sermon is “God is merciful”. Mercy is at the heart of the Christian faith and God is not just merciful, He is rich in mercy.
