Sermons on Pastor Kids:

Your Resources Are Insufficient. That's What God Intends.

Contributed by Alan Perkins on Feb 20, 2022

It was never God's intention that our resources should be sufficient. He wants to show us what he can do with the little we have.

As we consider the world that we live in today; as we watch the news on television, as we read the paper, or more likely, read the news online; as we look around us, and consider everything that is happening in our nation and in the world, it’s easy to become discouraged and disillusioned. ...read more

30) "Beware And Avoid False Gospel’s” Series

Contributed by Brandon Max on Feb 27, 2022

Many Religions today fail to understand the significance and importance of the true Gospel of Jesus Christ. This has given rise to "False Gospels" which the Apostle Paul gives us stern warning to avoid.

Any Day Now Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Mar 6, 2022

Both Peter and Paul raise the same question: what should we be doing when … not ‘if’ but ‘when’ … the Lord appears? How do you want Him to find you? Vigilant? Full of hope and expectation? Prepared? Ready to greet Him? Or scoffing? Asleep?

[Hold up cell phone.] Yep … we talked a little bit about this handy device last week. More accurately, we talked about one of the apps … the GPS. But there is another little handy app that I use all the time to help me plan my day … The Weather Channel’s Ten Day Weather app which, as the name ...read more

Breaking Point: Faith That Saves Vs. Faith That Doesn't Series

Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 10, 2021

At the height of popularity, Jesus makes hard statements that thin the crowds. He says many of his disciples didn't really believe. And they fell away. What's the difference between the faith that saves and the kind of faith that doesn't? This story reveals that truth.

I’m sure that there are many of us here who have known or encountered people who were strong Christians from everything we could tell, but who have, for one reason or another, fallen away from the faith. They no longer claim to believe, they do not practice what Christ taught, they no longer ...read more

The Meaning Of Meaninglessness

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 12, 2021

The Bible rejects the idea that all is meaningful. It stresses the reality of the meaningless, for the more we know of this reality, the more we will strive to avoid it and stay on the road of meaningfulness.

Pastor W. Robert McClelland had to endure the painful experience of hearing his grown son curse God and cry out in angry rebellion at Him. His son had worked hard for congressman Jerry Litton in his senatorial campaign. When the polls closed that Tuesday night and Litton come through with an ...read more

Everything At The Right Time

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 12, 2021

"There is a time to plant." This varies a great deal depending on where you are in the world, and what it is you are planting, but everything has an ideal time, and success depends on being wise enough to discover that time.

Arthur Gordon tells this true story of one of the leaders in a Christian school. He came from a very poor background, and was rather homely, yet he was married to one of the most beautiful and popular girls in Boston. He was asked how he managed to get her to say yes to him. He explained ...read more

The Now Life

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021

The Lord's Prayer in chapter 6 is a now prayer. Give us this day our daily bread. All of its petitions are for now. Hallowed be your name-now. Thy kingdom come now. Thy will be done on earth-now.

Marguerite Higgins, Pulitzer Prize winner for international reporting, stood by a marine during the Korean War. It was 42 below zero, and the soldier was weary and covered with frozen mud. She asked him, " If I were God and could grant you anything you wished, what would you most like?" ...read more

The Lure And Cure Of Lust

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 13, 2021

It is no wonder the Pharisees wanted Him out of the picture. He just made the majority of the human race murderers by making anger equivalent to murder, and now He makes the majority adulterers by making lust equivalent to adultery.

Show me the man who has never looked at a woman with lust, and I'll show you a man with a white cane who was blind from birth. None but a blind man could get through life and not be captivated by God's crowning work of creation-woman. Anyone with an ounce of artistic appreciation knows ...read more

Jesus Had A Sense Of Humor Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 16, 2021

The heavenly Father of Jesus has a great sense of humor and a spirit of joy, and Jesus is the express image of the Father and so we can assume that Jesus had the same joy and gladness of His Father.

A funny thing happened to Jesus on the way to heaven. He met people, and as we all know, people are funny. Jesus was a real person as well, and he had a great sense of humor. I am so sure of this that I wrote a poem about it. Jesus had a sense of humor, Of this truth there is no doubt. It is ...read more

I Met Him And He Gave Me A New Heart Series

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Apr 11, 2021

Saul’s conversion into Paul is an example of the fact that no one is too far from God or too far beyond God’s reach or God’s power to save, to transform a person, and give them a new heart … a heart for Him alone.

Today, doctors can literally give you a new heart … well, new to you at least. It once belonged to someone else. Someday medical science may be able to give us a mechanical heart … but I truly believe that only God can give you a change of heart. When I say that, I’m not talking about this ...read more

Living In The Vine

Contributed by Austin W. Duncan on Jun 14, 2022

Jesus is the Vine, we are the branches. The Father the Gardener, the vinedresser. Everything God does is to enhance our abiding and fruitfulness. With each trimming, we become more like Christ, for God’s glory and for the blessing of others. For the blessing of the world around us.

Christ often used illustrations for us when explaining spiritual truths. “If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink.” “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." Today, in John 15:1-11 we’re looking at the grapevine as ...read more

Lying Series

Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Jun 24, 2022

This sermon is about the trait of "Honesty." The primary focus is how unlike the world, Christians should see themselves as not living in this world, but living in a kingdom reality that is characterized by honesty, rather than dishonesty.

I would like to start off with a few questions that require an honest answer. The first question is how many of you have told a lie in the last five years? I am not talking about the white lies when your wife asks you if her jeans make her butt look big. I am talking about honest to goodness ...read more

Training Vs Trying Series

Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Jun 28, 2022

This sermon focuses on the importance of training to be like Christ rather than simply trying to be a Christ, and what it looks like in practical terms.

Good morning. We are continuing to look at this theme of discipleship. Discipleship at Bellevue Christian Church has been defined as ordinary people learning to live everyday life like Jesus. We decided that there are three ways that we become a disciple at Bellevue Christian Church. We gather, ...read more
