    We are to accept one another in Christ

    I believe most of us are young enough to remember Karen Carpenter.

    LIFE IN THE SPIRIT Romans 8:1-4 My brothers and sisters, as long as many of us have been associated with the church, I’m inclined to believe that many of us know a lot about it. We know at the nine o’clock hour. There is Sunday School. At ten forty-five ...read more

    This message was developed after reading Steve Meeks book "Relational Christianity." Christianity is not informational it’s relational.

    A Needed Change John 8:32 * Tonight I have not come to “preach” but just to share my heart with you. Yes, I am the Senior Pastor. Yes, I am called that because I am so old.

    WE can put our focus in the wrong place and come out looking silly and being ineffective for our Lord.

    INTRODUCTION • SLIDE #1 • AS we continue looking at some of the things that can ensnare us as we strive to life for Jesus, we are going to look at a subject that can really creep into our lives over a long period of time. • I think this is one of the traps that can slowly take hold of us if we are ...read more

    Why does it seem that sometime we are just existing instead living for Jesus? That is our theme in this message.

    Introduction: I’d like to begin this morning by asking you a question. Are you living or existing? It seems that many times in our lives we are merely existing instead really living life for what its worth. We get up, go to work or school, or we begin our daily routine, whatever it may be and ...read more

     | 10,321 views

    Who’s on your prayer list? We spend more time praying for the saved who are sick than for the unsaved who are lost ... more time trying to keep the saints out of Heaven than the lost out of Hell.

    Praying for the Lost Matthew 9:35-38 Billy Graham once said that he estimated that only 5% of believers had ever shared the gospel message of salvation with someone else. Evidently, a young fellow named Jim did not want to be left out of that group. Having lived in Orlando, FL all of his life, ...read more

    We are to appreciate our special place in the Body of Christ.

    If you have a choice, which part of your body can you live without?

    Let’s paint a BROAD PICTURE of Generation Y. The fountain of all internet knowledge, WIKIPEDIA, says that Generation Y were born in the mid-1980s through to the early 1990s.

    As Christians, this may sound counter-productive to ministry! However, Paul lets us know that sometimes it is better to be seen than heard!

    INTRODUCTION Some time ago, I was presented with a challenge! A lady within my home congregation said something about a sermon she had never heard. She said that she had attended church since she was 6 and never, EVER heard a sermon on this scripture! Far be it from me to back down from a ...read more

    [Start the sermon after the presentation of the video, The Bible, from sermonspice.com]. What did you think of the video?
