  • Red Sticks - Blue Sticks

    Contributed by Eloy Gonzalez on Aug 7, 2009
    based on 9 ratings
     | 12,809 views

    Ordinary Proper 14 - St. Paul draws a contrast between the follower of God and the person who doesn’t know of his love in Christ. He encourages us to guard our identity in Christ by illustrating what life in Christ "looks like".

    Recently I was remembering the very first sermon that I preached. It was in the mid 70s at a Baptist Church. I was a young sailor recently married. My new bride had been raised in a Baptist church and I was a freshly catechized Lutheran. We tried the local Lutheran Church – but it was not an ...read more

    A challenge to live this life we’ve been given making the difference God put us here to make.

    I want to talk today about the reality of the world you are entering and your place in it. In perilous times, God always raises up men and women who will fight for what is right. During the infancy of our nation God established our Founding Fathers who crafted the most successful democracy in the ...read more

  • Simon (Or Is It Peter?)

    Contributed by Bramwell Hayes on May 11, 2009
     | 4,454 views

    The restoration of Peter, and what it means to follow Jesus.

    “Simon, son of John”. Simon? That was his old name. That was the name that he was given by his parents, the name that he had gone by right up until the Lord had changed his name to ‘Peter’ – the Rock. He had certainly not lived up to this new name. That night he had let him down very badly. That ...read more

  • The Colossal Image Series

    Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 22, 2021
     | 2,047 views

    In the dream of Nebuchadnezzar we see in the miraculous stone's demolishing of the colossal image the triumph of the kingdom of God over the kingdoms of men.

    If we say something is big we assume we have said something important. If the grand stand is packed with the biggest crowd ever, this is a big deal, even if the game was not worth seeing. The big blast is all the rage on the screen or on the stage. Everything has to be gigantic to get our ...read more

  • Unity Of The Church - Sermon For Proper 16 - Year A

    Contributed by Ian Bullock on Aug 19, 2020
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,132 views

    An challenging exploration of what it means to be the church here and now. This is a re-work of a much older sermon of mine, which feels as relevant now as it did years ago. The analogy was used from another source, although I cannot now remember where that source is.

    In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Amen. Throughout the Gospels we see Jesus involved in situations where a number of profound questions are asked. Questions such as Pilate asking what is truth, or what is power, and today our Gospel leaves us with another when he asks his ...read more

  • God Only Knows

     | 4,478 views

    A Rubik’s Cube puzzle has only 26 little cube parts but over 43 quintillion ways to arrange them with only one being right. Only God can takes the bits and pieces stored in our minds and make them come so they all work together for our good.

    WARNING.... We will look a a few New Testament passages from Peterson’s Message Bible. If you can sit tight through that then you will enjoy what I have to tell you. Around 700 BC the great prophet Isaiah spoke of a day when many people would compare their own pointless, confused lives with the ...read more

  • Saved For A Purpose

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Dec 10, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 12,910 views

    You don't have to be a theological scholar to figure out what God expects of those who follow Jesus. He made it really clear. Take care of those who are in need in Jesus Name because you love God and you love people.

    What followers of Jesus call the providence of God the world calls coincidence. I have so many stories about how God's providence showed up in our life just when we needed it to. I'm sure you have some, too. Kristi and I marvel at how God has provided for us in various ways through the years; an ...read more

  • Grace At Work 28 - Words Of Grace 2

    Contributed by Dan Cormie on Oct 20, 2013
     | 3,187 views

    Are christians supposed to create their preferred futures by speaking "faith filled words"? Is this how God created everything that exists? This one is about positive confessions, faith declarations and framing the future with our words.

    Dakota Community Church Ephesians 58, Grace at Work 28 October 20, 2013 Words of Grace 2 Ephesians 4:29 29 Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. We are given six behaviors we are ...read more

    Contributed by Harold Laubach Jr on Jan 21, 2016
    based on 2 ratings
     | 14,403 views

    Unity of Spirit is important. It is powerful enough to stop division, empower a church and hold believers on task. Taking our eyes off of Christ is a sure fire way to invite division, discord and eventually demise.

    Have you ever heard of the term ‘Divide et impera’ (Latin)? It turns out, you have, just in a different language. That Latin term, is translated into English and it says, ‘Divide and Conquer’. It is a military, economic and mathematical term. Its definition is ‘a ...read more

    A sermon about accepting God's Love.

    “The Invitation to Life” John 3:16-21 I want you to close your eyes for a moment. Clear your thoughts. Now, think about the person you love more than anyone else in the world. Is it a mother? A father? A grandparent? Is it a son, a daughter, a friend, a husband, a wife? What is it ...read more

  • The Week That Changed The World: The Day Jesus Saw The Downfall Of Apostate Religion Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jul 15, 2021
     | 2,000 views

    Jesus finished His final day of public ministry. He taught the crowds in the Temple, confronted difficult questions, and then left for good. The Temple and its religious system was corrupt, useless, and irredeemable, and would be judged by God.

    Mark 12:28-44 gives us details about the final day of Jesus' public ministry and HIs departure from the Temple. He will go to the Mount of Olives and present to His astonished disciples the reality of what is to come in the future, and it does not involve a new Israel free from Rome, nor the ...read more

  • Bid Him Come And Die Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 6, 2021
     | 1,922 views

    Following Jesus is an all or nothing proposal, and far too many so-called "believers" are riding the fence, playing a game, or trying to look devout when their character shows otherwise. Either follow and obey Him, or be honest in your unbelief and leave.

    In today's social set-up, especially here in America, the prevailing philosophy seems to be, "I want it, and I want it NOW!" Young people are crying out for this at a pace that is bordering on the ridiculous, petty, and unrealistic. I do not see even the slightest awareness in most ...read more
