    From small beginnings, the World-Wide Church. The hidden workings of the Word in a life.

    THE MUSTARD SEED AND THE LEAVEN. Matthew 13:31-33. I. The Mustard Seed. This Sermon had its roots in a children’s address given long ago and far away. At that time I was interested (for all the best practical reasons) in gardening. I brought some seeds as a visual aid, and drew attention to ...read more

    Being Ready To Meet Jesus

     | 5,137 views

    In the Parable of the Sheep and the Goats we learn that since Jesus will return without warning to judge our service one is to live every moment considering the eternity God constantly and joyfully has placed within our hearts.

    Being Ready by Helping Others Matthew 25:31-46 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 To hear that we “will one day see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven” (26:64) provokes mixed emotions.

    Anger Management Or Anger Banishment? What Does Jesus Say? (Part 2)

    Contributed by Daniel Habben on Feb 23, 2014
     | 2,378 views

    This sermon focuses on how Jesus teaches how we are to banish anger also from the hearts of others.

    Last Sunday I told you about a seminar for children entitled: A Volcano In My Tummy. The program description reads in part: “This course will teach children…how to handle their anger using the anger rules; anger can then become a motivating force that will help them build healthy ...read more

    This message focuses on giving as outline by Jesus Himself. It was a part of a series I preached on the parables.

    “Making Sense Out of Dollars” Luke 16:1-15 Last week we began a new teaching series I have titled Tell me the Stories of Jesus. We are looking at some of the stories Jesus told through the use of parables. One of the ways we could describe a parable is that it is an earthly story with a heavenly ...read more

    If you want to know how to handle money, take your lead from this sleaze-bag criminal accountant in Luke 16, for he was smart enough to know the most valuable thing that you.

    One of the lads at Fight Club on Tuesday night approached me with a question: "You know that parable Jesus tells about the merchant who found the pearl of great price?”, he asked. “Yeah”, I said. “Well, I want to know who is the merchant in the story supposed to be?” This is not the standard sort ...read more

    Life is a trust from God. We are to be good stewards of God-given time and to manage time well by making wise choices. Time management can be learned.

    [I have taken the main points of this sermon from Rick Warren’s sermon on MANAGING YOUR TIME - Growing Through Goal Setting, Part 3, June 2-3, 2006, and added some of my personal thoughts.) NIV: Be very careful, then, how you live-not as unwise but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, ...read more

    The Battle Of Thermopylae And The Body Of Christ Today: The Parable Of The Wheat And The Weeds Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Aug 1, 2022
     | 1,531 views

    As the body of Christ today, sometimes we feel like the 300 at Thermopylae don’t we? It often seems like the darkness is closing in on all sides, particularly in the west. New forms of evil on every side seem to grow and spread like locusts

    “The east was on a collision course with the west in 480 BC. The world watched in awe as the largest army in history poured into Europe. Heading this colossal war machine was Xerxes, the king of Persia. His army numbered almost two million foot soldiers, eighty thousand horsemen, twenty thousand ...read more

    Laborers In The Vineyard

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Nov 18, 2014
     | 6,751 views

    The parable of the vineyard in Matthew 20 is almost mind boggling in scope and what can be extracted from it. In this sermon we are taking a look at the relationship between the owner and the workers and becoming an employee and the "doing".

    Now we need to remember that we can never take a scripture out of context. Just before this the Rich Young Ruler asks Jesus in Matthew 19:16b (NASB) “Teacher, what good thing shall I do that I may obtain eternal life?” “Do” This was an underlying foundation in the mind of ...read more

    Jesus has met each one of us at our point of need.

    We all know the story commonly called "The Good Samaritan." It does not take too much imagination to place ourselves in the role of any character in the story. We all can identify with the man in the story, for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. We all rejoice that the Savior met ...read more

    The Prodigal Son through the eyes of the father.

    Lose Something ? Luke 15:11-32 March 25, 2001 We’ve all experienced misplacing something at one time or another. How many of you have searched endless for your keys ? Keys seem to have a strange way of finding the most unsuspecting places to hide. I heard about a man who came out of a local ...read more

    In many ways, we have been the youngest son, the father and the eldest son as depicted in the parable of the Prodigal Son.

    Today, we celebrate the well-loved parabled called the Prodigal Son. I want us to think of it from perhaps a little different perspective. I want us to think about how each one of us, in many ways, has been the youngest son, the father, and the eldest son. Especially as we are in the season of ...read more

    What Do We Do With The Weeds?"

     | 10,475 views

    When the end comes, it will become clear who those people are whose faith is truly in Jesus, and it will become clear who those are who have been just playing a religious game.

    When I was a kid, weeding the garden was one of my least favorite activities. It was often hot out there and my back would hurt from bending over. Worst of all, I thought it was monotonous work, so often I did not pay real close attention to what I was doing. And, sure enough, I would sometimes ...read more

    what is the soil of your heart?

    I have this against you, Jesus said, you have left your first love. Last week we learned about the carnal Christian, the one who has gotten off track, but how can it happen. How does one fall out of love? How does one transfer their affections to another? Tonight lets look at the ...read more

    If you make an investment, would you not expect to make a greater return than what you put in? Why should God expect less from us?

    Turn tonight to Mark 4:20 (READ) And those are the ones whom seed was sown in the good soil; and they hear the word and accept it, and bear fruit, thirty, sixty and a hundred fold. If I were to give you each tonight $100, and I were then to tell you how you could turn that $100 into ...read more
