    Amazing Jesus Series

    Contributed by Scott Bayles on Oct 15, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,627 views

    The scribes and the skeptics were amazed at his teaching. The hungry and hurting were amazed by his miracles. An adulterer and her accusers were amazed by his love. And two millennia later, Jesus is no less amazing. But what amazes Jesus?

    Amazing Jesus (2) Scott Bayles, pastor Blooming Grove Christian Church: 1/19/2014 The Bible tells us, “On the day when the Lord Jesus comes, all the people who have believed will be amazed at Jesus” (2 Thessalonians 1:10). Amazed at Jesus. Not amazed at angels or mansions or new ...read more

    Recycling Our Pain Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Jun 8, 2015
     | 4,821 views

    Listen. God never wastes a hurt. What good is a trial if something good doesn’t come from it? Let’s look at the first of two questions I want us to try to answer.

    “Recycling our Pain” Matthew 5:10 In my personal study of the gospels one of the things I have noticed is that some of the teachings of Jesus are just very difficult for us to follow. At times when we read them they don’t even make sense. For instance, Jesus said: • If ...read more

     | 5,795 views

    The name Jehovah-Rohi. The Lord is my Shepherd has brought comfort to the hurting. It has been used to sooth the troubled souls. The name The Lord is my Shepherd, Jehovah-Rohi goes beyond all others in tenderness and intimacy.

    The LORD is my shepherd, I lack nothing. (Psalm 23:1) There is such an interesting relationship between the sheep and the shepherd. So much is written about sheep and shepherds in commentary on Psalm 23. I called my brother because after his wife finished a rigorous veterinary school, she went ...read more

    Lessons From Jeremiah – Part 22 – It Is Tragic When A Nation Finally Reaps The Sin It Has Sown – Sin Has Consequences Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Jun 6, 2024
     | 780 views

    Numbed by the wickedness around, we can become ignorant of the hurting and suffering people in our world. Jerusalem was grossly corrupt and injustice thrived. The world must learn from this but it is not going so. Injustice and violence are everywhere. Wrath is coming.

    A rhyme from my childhood: “Sticks and stones my break my bones but words can never hurt me.” I wish that were true because so many today are living in a life of distress because of words.

     | 368 views

    Offence is one of Satan’s most dangerous and subtle traps. It can cripple a person spiritually, emotionally, and relationally. But God gives us the grace to overcome offence through the power of love, humility, and forgiveness.

Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Luke 17:1 Supporting Texts: Proverbs 18:19, Matthew 24:10, 2 Timothy 2:24–26, Hebrews 12:14–15, 2 Corinthians 2:10–11 INTRODUCTION: Jesus made it clear in Luke 17:1 that “it is impossible but that offences will come.” This truth ...read more

    The Face Of Fasting At A Holy Marriage Series

    Contributed by Paul Kallan on Mar 4, 2003
    based on 55 ratings
     | 3,847 views

    To fast means to integrate the gospel into human life. It is the unity of the two opposites between the difficulty to overcome the human tendency to evil and the joy of embracing the Word of God.

    Once there was a father with a son who was lazy. He tried to convince his son that he should join him in the work on his farm. The son was not convinced. The father was actually worried, how his son would earn his living after his death. Therefore, before his death, the father called his son and ...read more

     | 7,379 views

    This sermon gives "ultrasound" picture of the development of life-controlling sins and shows how God has given us all that we need to overcome them.

    The Gestation of Sin James 1:12-18 So, how far along are you? I know, that’s not really the kind of question you would expect to hear a pastor utter at the beginning of his sermon.

    God had provided us with an answer to every problem we face in this life. In this story of Elijah God gives us His remedy for overcoming depression.
