  • The World Turned Upside Down Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 5, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,895 views

    An adaptation of the Seder service: Jesus turns upside down all our common values: sorrow for slavery becomes sorrow for sin; common issues become community; and wandering becomes salvation, all through the Cross.

    When great crowds gather in city streets, it is either for a celebration or for a revolution. Throngs do not come together without a purpose; they come together either to celebrate a great occasion or to agitate for what they want. They come to see evidence of a world turned upside down. In ...read more

  • Having Is Losing

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 6, 2009

    In times of financial stress, God knows the pressures on us. Our problem is that we want both material and spiritual security at the same time. The answer is faithfulness to the core values of ministry and witness.

    A little snatch of dialogue from a television show caught my attention. Could it be true, or was it just so much pretentious hype? Could it be right, or was it just another exercise in excuse-making? The character who spoke, I noticed, was dressed tres chic and lived in a lavish house with a ...read more

  • Have You Only One Blessing?

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 7, 2009

    Our families are dysfunctional because we are not creative and do not consult the Lord in prayer. Isaac is weak, late, and materialistic. Rebekah is manipulative and anxious. God the Father of Jesus shows us how to love and give to our chidren.

    We are bombarded daily with the phrase "family values." It has become the buzzword of the current political campaign. And as candidates parade their wives and children and grandchildren across the platform; as presidential hopefuls debate about which of them is the more family-oriented; as ...read more

  • Heads Or Tails

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 8, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,369 views

    The old argument between Paul and James, faith or works, is really two sides of the same coin. Both are needed for a church’s life to be whole. Preached on a Sunday when members were asked to sign up for various ministries.

    The funny thing about arguments is that two people can use all the same information and can come out on exactly the opposite ends of the argument. Two different people, just because they are different personalities, can read the same data, hear all the same pros and cons, examine all the same ...read more

  • The Heart Is Forgiving

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 9, 2009
    based on 5 ratings
     | 3,741 views

    Pulpit drama monologue as if the preacher were Simon, into whose house Jesus came, and where the jar of ointment was given. An emphasis on feeling, on forgiveness,and on generosity.

    Frankly, I like things cool, calm, and collected. This business of lavish public display has always bothered me. It’s just bad taste, that’s what it is, when people feel they have to hang all over each other in public. Great day, what you do see down at the market sometimes, young people so ...read more

    The Last Seven Words of Jesus First Saying: "Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing."
 Prayer was been a part of Jesus’ life. There was an ebb and flow in Jesus’ life where he would go into the world and then retreat for time with God. Most of his prayers were for ...read more

  • Resurrection: Power For A Life A Significance

    But then the power of the resurrection touched them. And the disciples went from a lack of trust to becoming trusting of God for all things. They went from trying to save their life to giving it away. They went from having little faith to believing all th

    It had started so benignly and yet it was the watershed event of their lives. When they woke up that day, it was like any other….but that would soon change. They were going about their every day activities. Some were fishing, some were repairing their nets, and one was sitting at his desk ...read more

  • To Us He Turned Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 9, 2009
     | 4,428 views

    Maundy Thursday message, designed to be interwoven with verses of "When I Survey ..." and with the elements of Communion. Jesus turns to us to interpret the power of wounded healing.

    TO US HE TURNED: REVELATION “Then turning to the disciples, Jesus said to them privately, ‘Blessed are the eyes that see what you see!’” This is a private moment. To the disciples He turned and spoke privately. There are some things not meant for the public arena, some things intended only for ...read more

  • A Painful Visit

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 10, 2009
     | 5,091 views

    For Martin Luther King Sunday. Misunderstanding comes about because we do not hear one another, we do not have the context to understand, or someone deliberately creates distance. Racial understanding needs to take all this into account.

    Misunderstanding is an inevitable part of life. Just because we are human, just because we have limitations and are imperfect, we are going to misunderstand one another. And the sooner we accept that as a part of life and learn to deal with it, the better off we’ll be. There are several reasons ...read more

    Paul had been in revival for 6 days. · This was the 7th and they broke the bread and Paul started preaching. · After preaching all day it was now midnight and the lamps were burning and Paul was just getting warmed up.

    Acts 20: (New International Version) 7On the first day of the week we came together to break bread.
