    Contributed by Bill Butsko on Apr 13, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,635 views

    Jesus identifies Himself using common ordinary everyday words.

    Text: Jesus asked his disciples, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?” (Matthew 16:13b). Jesus asked his disciples who other people thought he was. He was curious as to what kind of answer or answers he would receive. Then after he asked who other people thought he was Jesus became very ...read more

  • The Call To Discipleship

    Contributed by Vernon Price on Apr 11, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,977 views

    That is why the church of God must return to the preaching of the Cross. Yes, it offends. Yes, it alienates. Yes it is a stumbling block to many, and yes, it is sheer foolishness to others. But to those who believe, "It is the power of God unto salvation"

    The Call To Discipleship Imagine in your mind that you are a news reporter for station W-O-R-D in Jerusalem. You have been assigned the task of following some new religious fanatic who has appeared on the scene and seriously shaken the status quo. Not much of a Jew yourself, this whole scene ...read more

    Mayor Gerardo Balmori The Salvation Army Restoring the Lost Power to our Lives and Ministry The story of the lost axe head is illustrative of the impotent Christian’s life. 1.)

  • How To Find Your Place In The Body Of Christ Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Feb 13, 2011
    based on 5 ratings
     | 15,313 views

    Finding your place in the body of Christ is made difficult by the very nature of the spiritual gifts. People with upfront or flamboyant kinds of ministries can make the rest of us feel insignificant, like we are not contributing or maybe just aren't a par

    As humans we like two things: to impress and be impressive. That was one of the main problems the Corinthians faced in many areas including spiritual gifts. The more flamboyant the gift, the more impressive the show of the Spirit, the better. So in chapters 12 through 14 Paul corrects this ...read more

  • Getting Real With God Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 26, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,140 views

    We treat God as though He were not present. Jesus shows us how to get real with God by admitting His feelings, by telling what He wanted, and by enlisting His friends in prayer, however inadequate. Montgomery Hills Baptist Church

    We are not going to debate this morning whether there is or is not a God. That’s settled, I would think, in this room. The issue is not whether God is real, but whether we know how to get real with God. Let me play out a little scene with you. Picture a home in which there is a parent and a ...read more

  • Caring With A Difference

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Aug 30, 2007
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,460 views

    A Labor Day message on providing caring services, but not simply as self-fulfillment, but as a means to witness.

    The true test of whether what you are doing is real is not how you feel about it when you start. The true test is whether you can keep going and complete your task. Anybody can get excited about a new job. But not everybody can stay by the stuff and finish. Some people get bored, or ...read more

  • Breaking The Rules Series

    Contributed by Kevin Ruffcorn on Sep 3, 2007
    based on 16 ratings
     | 10,672 views

    Rules are made to be broken--that is if they stand in the way of ministering to the needs of those around us. Jesus broke the rules and set people free.

    Luke 13:10-17 “Breaking the Rules” INTRODUCTION The journey of life contains several themes; love/hate, struggle/victory, sorrow/joy. The Bible, which has been called, “The Book of Life,” contains many themes in it, also. One of the major themes throughout the Bible is that of bondage and ...read more

  • Routines - Customs - Practices

    Contributed by Bill Butsko on Sep 9, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,166 views

    This sermon illustrates some of the routines, customs, and practices of Jesus.

    Do you have a routine? What is your routine? Do you do the same things over and over the same way day after day? We are creatures of habit. If you were to take next week and record your actions and movements I believe you would find a repetitious pattern. We do many things out of habit. When ...read more

  • Transplanted Heart Series

    Contributed by Dale Pilgrim on Jan 14, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,711 views

    Being a servant is not only what we do for others but also what we allow others to do for us which otherwise we are embarrassed to receive.

    Among the extraordinary feats of history is the medical process of heart transplants. It is the actual procedure of removing a diseased heart from a patient and replacing it with the heart of a deceased donor. A surgeon would perform the transplant procedure on a patient who has a diseased heart, ...read more

  • Lost In Translation Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jan 27, 2008
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,096 views

    How well do you know Jesus, really? Jesus probes some Jews who say they believe but don’t. Jesus says the truth will set us free, but sometimes we are speaking a different language and so can’t understand what he is saying at first.

    How well do you know Jesus? Some of us grew up in church and think we know him. He’s the guy who walked on water and changed water into wine and started that Golden Rule thing. Others know Jesus as a good man who gave us a lot of good advice on how to live. To others Jesus is love guy-love your ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,741 views

    In this sermon you will consider the phrase, Jesus the Prince of Peace, taken from Isaiah 9:6.

    In beginning I would like to share the story behind one of our favorite Christmas hymns, “I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day.” At the time of it’s writing Henry Wadsworth Longfellow was happy in his life, enjoying a widening recognition, and elated over the election of Abraham Lincoln. He believed ...read more

  • More Than Robes And Ritual Series

    Contributed by Stuart Blount on Dec 28, 2007
     | 3,184 views

    As this letter paints a magnificent and majestic portrait of Jesus it highlights the immensity of how our lives are affected as a result of who Jesus is and what he has done for us. What better way to inspire those whose faith is flagging or whose hearts

    AIM: To elevate our perspective of JESUS so that any sense of flagging faith is renewed by a fresh understanding of the importance and significance of JESUS. Hebrews was written to Jewish Christians, probably 2nd generation, whose parents had embraced ‘Christ’ as Messiah and so these people had ...read more

     | 4,313 views

    A look at the scene at the well to help us have Jesus’ heart for the lost, understanding about God’s desire for worshippers, and insight concerning peoples’ reaction to the Gospel.

    Souvenir. It’s from French, for “memory.” It’s an object a traveler brings home for the memories associated with it. Something you keep to help you remember where you were. In my office, I found I have several: a rock that is a fossil from our place in Hillsboro; Mickey Mouse clock from ...read more
