    If It's Possible, It's Not God's Work

    Contributed by James Snyder on Jan 21, 2013
     | 3,321 views

    God's work is always outside the realm of human possibility.

    It is absolutely impossible to become a Christian. Down through the years many have tried and have failed most miserably. The problem is people are taught that they can become a Christian anytime they want to. This gives people room to put it off to a “more convenient season.” Most ...read more

    Fulfilling God’s Purpose

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Feb 28, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,156 views

    To accomplish God’s good purpose, we are to respect all people, love other believers, fear God, and honor those who rule over us - even when something doesn’t seem good to us. These kinds of actions may fan a spark of belief in those who observe our respo

    Opening illustration: Sometimes when I want to start a fire, the wind puts it out. But when I try to keep a fire burning, wind keeps it going. So, in the first situation, I label wind “bad” because it thwarts my plans; in the other, I label it “good” because it helps me ...read more

    What does the perfect church look like?

    New Life Church Colossians 3:12-17 If you and I were building the perfect church what would it look like? Would it carry the name Baptist or would that even matter?

    Freedom For The Captives Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 23, 2015
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,660 views

    Paul's whole plea to Philemon is to act the way the loving Father acted: to welcome home the beloved son; to restore him to fellowship with the family. There will be, and have been, occasions when we'll be called to respond to wrongdoers the same way.

    There's something quite different about reading this letter compared with all Paul's other letters. In all the others, even those addressed to individuals, the focus is on the Church where they're ministering. But here there's a much more personal feel to the correspondence. You can feel the warmth ...read more

    Who Gets Your Blessing? Series

    Contributed by Brandon Vernoy on Aug 13, 2016
     | 7,656 views

    We do not obtain the blessings of God because we deserve them. We obtain them because He loves us and it brings Him glory.

    Who Gets Your Blessing? One of the most dramatically unqualified biblical heroes I can think of is Jacob. He was a liar, a con, a trickster, a fraud. He spent much of his life haunted by bad decisions and exiled to the chaos of self-inflicted consequences. And yet God called him, chose him, and ...read more

    The Worse Homecoming Ever

    Contributed by Larry Turner on Oct 24, 2016
    based on 3 ratings
     | 12,569 views

    A church in decline. A pastor discouraged. A congregation wanting to party as if all were well. Not exactly a great recipe for me to get a sermon. But the Lord spoke to me and took some weight off my shoulders in this sermon.

    Welcome to our 2nd Annual Homecoming Dinner. This is actually my sixth October as pastor and the church itself has existed for 14 years. The reason it is the second homecoming dinner is because we decided to start having one last year. This year 30 past and present members were invited. Eleven ...read more

    When The Law Was Being Quoting At Jesus, How Did This A Type Of Bullying?

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Nov 29, 2016
     | 4,431 views

    Keeping tradition is a good thing, but not always. Some use it to put others down, or raise themselves up, either way it is bullying. How do we handle this? How did Jesus handle this?

    Walk In The Spirit

    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,080 views

    Living by the dictates of the flesh are only going to get us to death row. If and when our lives are dictated by Christ, it becomes evident to all that we are walking in the Spirit. Are you?

    Opening Illustration: A radical change is expected and required when a person comes to faith in Jesus Christ. When no change becomes apparent, we begin to wonder if there has been a genuine conversion or if the one who was truly saved understands God’s Word concerning sanctification and ...read more
