    Follow Christ, Our Firm Foundation PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 126 views

    True faith is shown by obeying Jesus’ words, building our lives on His foundation so we stand firm through life’s storms.

    Friends, some of us walked in today with a smile on our face and a storm in our chest. The winds may not be rattling your windows, but they might be rattling your peace. A report you didn’t expect. A bill you can’t pay. A relationship you’re not sure will hold. Have you ever felt the floorboards of ...read more

    Jesus seeks out the overlooked, calls us by name, and transforms our lives when we respond with open hearts, repentance, and welcome.

    If you listen closely to this old story, you may hear your name woven between the branches of a Jericho tree. Have you ever felt small in a crowd? Not in inches, but in influence? Have you ever felt unseen in a swirl of noise, pushed to the back while questions press to the front? Then you’ll feel ...read more

    Jesus seeks us where we are, calls us by name, and transforms our lives with grace that leads to joyful repentance and welcome.

    I wonder how many of us walked in today feeling small. Small under the weight of worries, small beside someone else’s success, small in the shadow of our own failures. We learn early how to tuck ourselves away—behind busyness, behind bravado, behind careful smiles. We wear “I’m fine” like it’s ...read more

    The sermon encourages believers to shine Christ’s light through everyday acts of love and faith, trusting God to use their ordinary lives for His glory.

    Friends, have you noticed how even the faintest glow can calm a room? A nightlight in a child’s hallway, a candle on a windowsill during a storm, a porch lamp that says, “You’re welcome here.” Light doesn’t shout. It simply shines. It takes up residence in dark places and changes what we can see ...read more

    This sermon is about going the distance in loving God with all of our hearts, soul, strength and minds and loving our neighbors as we love ourselves, until the last day.

    LIVING RIGHT TILL THE LAST DAY Text: Romans 13:8-14 There is no such thing as people who made their success all by themselves.

    Christmas Eve service, 2003. Herod wanted to be in control and lost the opportunity to know Jesus personally. Do we want to be in control so much that we can’t submit to Christ?

    Herod didn’t know who he was. The King of Judea, the Great Herod, had no clue as to who this little baby boy was. Herod thought this baby was a threat. Matthew’s Gospel says that when Herod heard about the Baby Jesus from the Wise Men, he was greatly distressed. Greatly distressed? That is ...read more

    As the power of God draws the heaven and the earth farther and farther apart, our main focus will be the love of Jesus to keep us closer together.

    Read Luke 13:1-5 Because of his love, the love of Jesus; he will forgive us of anything, for the reason that love is just what God says it is. God is Love. And we should focus only on his love, since this reveals who God is. He will forgive us of anything, but speaking a word against the spirit of ...read more

    We have been taught that posture is important for physical health and for social acceptance. However our posture spiritually determines our position and either secures or puts our promise at risk.

    The Posture of Sin I can still hear the various voices in my head that would constantly deal with the issue of posture in my life. I can hear the "Sit up straight" from my mom.
