    A New Year: Will Anything Really Change? Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 3, 2004
    based on 35 ratings
     | 5,762 views

    Some fear change, and others think it never really happens. But either of those approaches writes off what God can do. Embrace change, know who you are, and there will be joy.

    Some of you look like you just woke up, so maybe I need to tell you that we have started another new year! We have crossed over into a new year. Maybe you marked it with prayer at the midnight hour, or a quick kiss with someone you love, or – well, we’ll not get into some of the less-than-Baptist ...read more

    based on 26 ratings
     | 6,607 views

    The world wants you to conform to its thinking and its ways but what is needed is a transformation achieved through the new birth experience. Once achieved, we are to strive to be conformed to the image of His Son.

    CONFORMATION AND TRANSFORMATION “And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” Romans 12:2 I. Worldly conformation…the “ easy and popular way” “Enter in at the narrow gate; ...read more

    The holy angles were proclaiming peace on Earth, we hear this and we often think of the Christmas song based on this Scripture. It is recorded in the Scriptures for more than just a song, God was speaking to us...

    God's Discipline Vs. Our Pain Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,483 views

    From a series of Wednesday night Bible Studies on Psalms 1-23. David thinks he has been disciplined enough, but we take the time to contrast parental discipline and godly discipline.

    Notes From Psalm 6 Verses 1-2 Discipline is unavoidable for the child of God. God’s discipline is a demonstration of divine love. See Hebrews 12: 4 - 11 Proverbs 13:24 The purpose of God’s discipline is not to crush us, but to create a right heart within us. What we think is God’s ...read more

    based on 65 ratings

    Some scholars have said that Hezekiah started out good and then went bad. I think that’s a short sighted description of a man who was not that much different than we are.

    OPEN: A man spoke of one of the most challenging courses he’d had at his college as being a business law class in which the professor gave difficult true/false tests.

     | 5,066 views

    Jesus calls Himself the light of the world. And I think we can simply study what effect physical light has on the areas that it touches and gain some spiritual lessons from that.

    If you remember, last Sunday morning I spoke to you about how God described Himself as the I AM and what all that means to us today. It’s good to know that God is, that He does not change, and that He can be everything we need Him to be. Well, tonight I want to begin a series that will span over ...read more

    To show that modern thinking distorts the biblical message and does Satan’s work for him. That Christ is Lord and our battle must be fought using the spiritual power that He gives us.

    Sermon: Deliverance! Lk 13:10 “Now He was teaching in one of the synagogues on the Sabbath. 13:11 And behold, there was a woman who had a spirit of infirmity eighteen years, and was bent over and could in no way raise herself up. 13:12 But when Jesus saw her, He called her to Him and said to ...read more
