    Insults Or Joy? Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 11, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,836 views

    Annas and Caiphas exhibit the truth that if we do not know God, we do not know ourselves. That produces insecurity, which, in turn, yields destructive defensiveness.

    A riddle to begin with today. Can you answer this question? How do two porcupines hug one another? Very carefully! It’s one of those encounters in which, no matter how you approach it, somebody is likely to get hurt. And we all know some porcupines. Any one of us can be a porcupine on any ...read more

    This sermon is an exposition of the acronym F-I-R-S-T Essentials for a balanced church ministry. Forget ourselves and lend a helping hand for the benefit of others.

    Jesus was concerned about people. He was drawn to the crowds. But He did not see the crowds as a sea of faces. Rather, He saw each individual. He looked beyond the surface what other saw to see people for what the really were. He was touched by what He saw. He understood the depth of their needs ...read more

    Ministering Is Sharing Our Treasures

    Contributed by Mark Roper on Nov 26, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,627 views

    The whole idea of sharing our treasure seems to run counter to man’s nature, that is - to do our own thing, to think only of ourselves first.

    Ministering is Sharing our Treasures Psalm 126:6 A couple of years ago, Tim Forneris, a 22 year old groundskeeper gave Mark McGwire, a million dollar ball, saying "I think I have something that belongs to you." McGwire in turn gave it to the Hall of Fame to display beside Babe Ruth’s and Roger ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,347 views

    Let’s do more than just beat ourselves up about our tongue. Let’s examine the problem and find real solutions.

    Passage: James 3:1-12 Intro: It’s perhaps typical when preaching on this passage to hand out the whips, and encourage everyone to beat on themselves and each other! 1. we all have plenty of experience with the power of the tongue. 2. we have been wounded, and we have wounded others. 3. some of ...read more

    based on 6 ratings
     | 21,517 views

    In today’s sermon we will see that in a very real sense, Lent is about understanding the 51st Psalm of David and seeing ourselves in the place of the Psalmist.

    “Lent” Psalm 51 03/17/2008 By Dcn. Chris Nerreau ILLUSTRATION •(2 Sam. 11) Many of you are familiar with David’s escapades with a peasant girl named Bathsheba. In this particular story we see a King who abuses his power in such a way as to commit two heinous sins, namely rape and murder. ...read more

    The greatest sin that Christians face today and have been facing since the days of Moses, is Unbelief. We have limited ourselves to the power and grace of God.

    The Sin that Entangles Us So Easily Hebrews 12:1 Introduction Most of us have what we call “an entangling sin.” By an entangling sin we refer to some personal weakness or shortcoming. Usually we justify or explain our reason for tolerating this sin to the extent that our conscience does not ...read more

    The Banquet

    Contributed by Joe Tilton on Aug 28, 2013
     | 4,515 views

    Messiah uses a banquet to make serious point about how we should think of ourselves. Does self esteem have a place in a Christian's life?

    September 1, 2013 The Banquet A drunken man who smelled like beer, sat down on a subway seat next to a priest. The man’s tie was stained, his face was smeared with red lipstick, and a half-empty bottle of gin was sticking out of his torn coat pocket. He opened his newspaper and began to ...read more

     | 23,137 views

    What a terrible position to be in, when we find ourselves dangerously positioned higher than Christ. This is when Jesus challenges us to Come On Down.

    TITLE: COME ON DOWN SCRIPTURE: ST. LUKE 19:1-10 I am reminded of a game show that has been televised since 1956 entitled THE PRICE IS RIGHT.

     | 18,165 views

    Jacob found himself in a tough spot and alone when the Angel of the Lord came and wrestled with him. Are we willing to put ourselves in a position for an encounter with God?

    n Jacob was a man who had always done things his way and he was the kind of person who wanted to be in charge and know how things were going to play out. n How many times do we get in that same place with God? We know what we are used to and we know what we expect and don’t want to see that ...read more

     | 6,512 views

    Even though the rich blessings God intends for us may appear to be of no more value than a seed or a handful of yeast we should not deceive ourselves.

    Lectionary 17 A Matthew 13:31-33, 44-52 This morning we heard a number of “One – Line Parables” that Jesus used to describe the Kingdom of God to illustrate how God’s power and authority is visible and expressed in our world.
