     | 4,008 views

    This is about John beating Peter in a footrace to the empty tomb, but Peter going in first. t’s about Peter’s courage, and how we need to live courageous lives, following God’s plans for us.

    John 20:1-9 – Fools Rush In Today, as we are continuing our series called He is Risen Indeed, where we have been studying Jesus’ resurrection and what it means to us, we turn our attention to the men of the story.

    How To Forgive

    Contributed by William Mouser on Sep 19, 2005
    based on 14 ratings
     | 3,981 views

    Peter’s question about how often to forgive allows Jesus to answer a different question: what is forgiveness.

    What is forgiveness? Matthew 18:21-35 As I’m sure most of you have noticed, in our worship here we recite the Lord’s prayer twice during our worship. In the history of Christian worship this is a fairly low number of times to use the Lord’s prayer. When Thomas Cranmer revised the Sarum Mass in ...read more

    PETER: WHO THEY BOTH ARE! MATTHEW 16.13-23 Recently I have been working through a journal workbook based on John Eldredge’s book Wild at Heart.

    This sermon is adapted from Andy Stanley's book Enemies of the Heart. Anger is a prison that can only be escaped by forgiveness.

    It Came From Within: Anger Introduction We have been talking about the enemies of the heart. Jesus said that it is from within the core of our being that all of life's issues flow, the good, the bad, and the ugly.

    800-Pound Gorilla? Or The First Pope?

    Contributed by William Mouser on Aug 23, 2005
    based on 7 ratings
     | 2,965 views

    In Matthew 16, Jesus confers on Peter (and, later the other Apostles) authority to rule the Church, founded on the truth of Peter’s confession that Jesus is the Messiah.

    Matthew 16:13-20 800-Pound Gorilla? Or the First Pope? There’s a phrase that’s popular in modern discussions of any number of topics, and that phrase is this: “an 800 pound gorilla in the room.” An example would be this line which I plucked from a blog entry on the international economy as it ...read more

    Unforgiveness Is The Cancer Of The Soul

    based on 3 ratings
     | 14,989 views

    Unforgiveness is the cancer of the soul. It’s a spiritual prison, enslaving the one who refuses to let go, to leave behind, to forgive.

    Intro Unforgiveness is the cancer of the soul. It’s a spiritual prison, enslaving the one who refuses to let go, to leave behind, to forgive. We in stubborn blindness don’t see the good God is doing when He teaches us to forgive. Instead, we see ourselves as losing out in some way, ...read more

    One of Terri’s all-time favorite movies is Aladdin. Now, I’m not talking about the live-action remake. If you’re going to watch Aladdin with her, it had better be the original Disney cartoon.

    What made Simon Peter, a man of failures, become Simon Peter, a man of fame?

    March 20, 1996 I. INTRODUCTION: His name is Simon Peter. We remember him as the disciple who tried to walk on water, but started sinking when the waves and wind blew his faith away.

    Things were different in the days of Peter. When Peter was around, everybody got healed.

    So far we have seen Saul’s encounter with Jesus on the road to Damascus. He was blinded for 3 days. God sent Ananias to heal Saul of his blindness. Saul was baptized, and was nourished with food and drink because he hadn’t eaten or drank anything during those three days. Saul ...read more

    This past Wednesday marked the beginning of the season of Lent. Many people give something up for Lent. I’m not always sure people understand why they do it.

    Peter’s words to slaves in the first century are relevant to our world in the twenty-first.

    I suspect that a number of you have heard the old story of the young man who was desperately seeking God’s guidance for some crucial issue in his life. For some reason he decided that the best way forward might be simply to allow his Bible to fall open randomly and then follow the wisdom of ...read more

     | 590 views

    Second Timothy was a letter written by the Apostle Paul, who finds himself a prisoner confined in a Roman prison awaiting certain execution. Here, we find the Apostle challenging one of his young converts (Timothy) not to be timid because God gives the spirit of power, love and of a sound mind.
