    Innocent Of The Blood Of All

    Contributed by Steve Shepherd on Jun 2, 2008
    based on 13 ratings
     | 4,159 views

    How can we Christians become innocent of the blood of all men? 1- By proclaiming the will of God 2- By warning people night and day

    INTRO.- Innocence. That sounds good, but are we innocent in any way, shape or form? I was once in life. You were too. ILL.- It’s like the story of the little boy peeking over the corner of his newborn baby brother’s crib, saying, "Quick! Tell me what God is like before you forget." We all ...read more

    Getting to know Jesus takes an investment of time.

    Time for an introduction John 1:35-39 It took me 7 years to complete my 2 year master’s degree program. Part of the delay was out of my control, part of it was not.

    Grumble Or Grow!

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 22, 2015
     | 14,306 views

    We don’t think God cares – if we mumble and grumble, but He does. We’re going to look at what grumbling is, why we shouldn’t grumble, and look at the alternatives to grumbling.

    GRUMBLE OR GROW! Exodus 16:1-8 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A lawyer, a doctor, and a preacher went deer hunting together when along came a big buck. The three of them all shot at the same time, and immediately the buck dropped to the ground. 2. They all rushed up to examine the deer, but couldn't ...read more

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on May 12, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 11,389 views

    You might have something in your hand which is insignificant to the world. Do you still want to hold on to it or let it become a blessing for others? How can you really impact with what is placed in your hand?

    Opening illustration: In the Wizard of Oz … as the narrative winds down, every step of the way down the yellow brick road, Dorothy grows larger and larger, while the seemingly powerful adults around her grow smaller and smaller.

    Roadwork Series

    Contributed by Tim Smith on May 28, 2015
     | 4,682 views

    When you think of it, roadwork is a pretty good analogy of the journey of faith. God accepts us where we are but wants us to become like his Son. For most of us, that means there’s serious roadwork to do.

    Road Work Mark 8:34-38 My wife and I used to live Uptown on Octavia Street between Constance and Laurel just two blocks from Tchoupitoulas. At that time, the Port of Orleans was redoing Tchoupitoulas. When the street was dug up, they found that many of the feeder drainage pipes from the ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,435 views

    To turn to anything other than Christ for salvation is spiritually fatal! Christ alone fulfilled everything the OT pointed to in type. In fact His 3 appearances are vital for us. Tomorrow as we delve into scripture, we will see what Christ's 3 appearances

    based on 4 ratings
     | 18,167 views

    We never really know how strong our relationship with God is until we face a severe trial. The darkest times -- our midnights --are the times when our faith is proven. Paul & Silas discovered God was enough at midnight.

    THEOLOGY AT MIDNIGHT Acts 16:22-32 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: IF ONLY 4 WEEKS TO LIVE 1. A Bible study group was discussing the possibility of sudden death. The Group Leader asked, "What would you do if you knew you only had 4 weeks of life remaining before your death, and your Judgment Day?" 2. ...read more

    When it comes to materialism, has any nation ever surpassed what we are seeing in the United States right now? We define our lives by how much stuff we have, social status by how much money we make, what we own and wear and where we live.
