Coming To Grips Series

Contributed by Christopher Lanham on Feb 11, 2012

I want to tell you a story this morning – a funny, yet strangely disturbing story. The setting was a small group retreat with a bunch of teenage boys – I was one of the leaders. We’d had a really good weekend; sharing our faith stories, digging into the Scriptures, spending time ...read more

Let's Make Some Noise Series

Contributed by Curry Pikkaart on Sep 15, 2010

America has been blessed because of her roots, but those roots are being destroyed.

“The Charge of the Light Brigade: Let’s Make Some Noise!” Is. 62:1-7; Ezek 33:1-20 As I begin today I want to be perfectly clear. America is not God’s chosen nation. There is only one of those and it is Israel. But America has been richly blessed because of her ...read more

Learning From God's Providence

Contributed by Charles Scott on Jun 22, 2017

Jesus learned obedience by the things He suffered. Similarly, St. Paul learned from the Christ that he had persecuted, the things he would suffer as He followed the Christ. Living the Christ life, we will see how suffering aids in redemption.

Trinity 2 2017 Learning from God’s Providence The Collect O LORD, who never failest to help and govern those whom thou dost bring up in thy stedfast fear and love; Keep us, we beseech thee, under the protection of thy good providence, and make us to have a perpetual fear and love of thy holy ...read more

For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated.

A Mountain Out Of A Molehill Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 28, 2021

When we look at the life of Jesus we discover He was a Master at making mountains out of molehills. He was always finding the sublime in that which was simple. He used the insignificant over and over for the basis of inspiration.

Basil Matthews tells of being in a little Arabian village and seeing a tall Arab boy playing a flute in the dusty streets. He was surprised and asked the boy if he could examine the instrument.

A New Song Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 5, 2021

God is infinite, and therefore, only infinite creativity is worthy of Him, and adequate to glorify His name. It is also essential to keep joy alive in the worshipper. Variety is the spice of life, and a new song is like a tonic that lifts and enables us to feel afresh the love that is always there.

It is easy for us to do what the psalmist urges us to do, "Sing to the Lord a new song." The number of new songs to sing today is enormous. Back in 1891 Dr. Julian in his famous Dictionary of Hymnology examined four hundred thousand hymns, and he did not cover them all. There are, ...read more

Talking Trees

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 5, 2021

There are over 500 reference to trees, and they play a major role in God's revelation. The text we are looking at in Judges 9 is not the most important, but it is the most conspicuous.

One of the questions most often debated among amateur philosophers is whether or not a tree falling in the woods makes any noise is no one is around to hear it? From a biblical perspective there is never a time when the trees are not being heard, for if we take seriously the Lordship of Christ ...read more

The Eagle Life Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 9, 2021

All who trust in Jesus Christ as Savior have a great adventure in flight in the future. God expects us to be preparing now for this adventure in the heights by living an exalted life, or, as our text suggests, and eagle like life.

Flight is not only for the birds, it is for the believers as well. Pilots and astronauts do not have exclusive rights on soaring into the heavens. The Negro Spiritual says, I got wings, you got wings, All O God's children got wings. When I get up to heab'n I'm going to put on my ...read more
