    based on 55 ratings
     | 111,376 views

    Samuel was a "father figure" to Israel and many of the traits he exhibited here in chapter 12 give us examples of what good fathers do.

    ILLUS: One father had a three-year-old daughter who was having trouble sleeping through the night. She’d often wake up several times in the night because she was afraid. Each time as he re-tucked her into bed, he would remind her that Jesus was with her and he would keep her safe. Several ...read more

    This is about Jesus conversation with Nicodemus.

    It is perhaps the best known verse of the Bible. Almost anyone can quote it, at least in paraphrase. It is the verse that every child learns in Sunday school and VBS. I remember making a little wall plaque in Bible school with the verse on it. I remember that 15 to 20 years ago, you would see ...read more

  • Take This Cup From Me - Mark 14:32-36 Series

    Contributed by Darrell Ferguson on May 12, 2024
     | 1,180 views

    One preacher said, “Prayer is not about getting God to do what you want. It’s about getting you to do what God wants.” But if that’s the case, why make requests? What is the real purpose of prayer?

    Introduction: Unanswered Prayer Does prayer work? We all know the right answer: “Yes, of course it works. Prayer changes things!” But what about when you pray and nothing happens? Let me ask you this: Did Jesus’ prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane work? To answer the question of whether prayer ...read more

  • Attaining True Human Dignity Series

     | 1,572 views

    During this Christmas season, it makes sense that we should follow Mary’s prophetic declaration, “all generations will call me blessed”, by praying her prayer, the Magnificat, and asking God to give us the same spirit of obedience she had.

    December 22 The Magnificat Today's vesper antiphon speaks to Jesus as the "King of all the nations, the only joy of every human heart." One of the now "traditional" movies lots of people see each Christmas is one set in the middle of the last century. It's called ...read more

     | 8,810 views

    When it comes time to telling others about Jesus, we need to refrain from sharing our thoughts, our views and our religion. We just need to tell them to "Come and See"

    Come and See John 1:44-46 How many of you like first hand experiences? You have to check things out for yourself… Others can tell you about it but you want to see it yourself. What about when you experience something exciting: You want to tell others about it. Movies – “Have you seen ...read more
