"Beating Around The Bush"

Contributed by David Henderson on Sep 30, 2013

We fast forward now and Moses enters on the scene again at the age of 40. He was perhaps one of the most unlikely candidates for leadership that we find in the OT.

“Beating Around the Bush” Exodus 3:1-14 I remember clearly a time in my life when I had gotten to a point where God was speaking to me about making some major changes in my life and ministry. God was about to do something new in my life and the details were not very clear for me. Can ...read more

Simply Irresistible Series

Contributed by Rob Jansons on Sep 14, 2010

Fourth sermon in the series on salvation, examining the "order of salvation" and how God's grace works behind the scenes in our lives during the process.

We are talking about our salvation. Spending time thinking about how God saves us. In once sense, it doesn’t really matter - we are saved! Thank God. Why analyze it? But on the other hand, it is helpful to our understanding of God and to our Christian life if we spend some time thinking ...read more

God Is Not Done With Israel Yet Series

Contributed by Jim Butcher on Mar 19, 2025

This passage gives us insights into one key scene where we find that God isn't done with Israel yet.

- It’s easy to read this passage vaguely. There are some nice phrases in there that you could use as pegs to hang a sermon on. One obvious one is the glory of God returning - it would be easy to write an inspiring sermon off that idea. - But there is another way to preach this passage and that is ...read more

The salvation that Jesus Christ has made possible for us came through conflict resolution.

What comes to mind when you hear the word "conflict?" Anger? Fear? Anxiety? A person’s name or face? A memory of a past event or a word spoken that you want to forget but can’t? Some of us fear conflict, like the grass in the African proverb, “when bull elephants fight, the grass always loses.” ...read more

Legal Counsel For Christians Series

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 4, 2023

Jesus provides counsel on domestic disputes, sex crimes, adultery and divorce; and He even says something that can be applied to swearing on the Bible in a court of law. Jesus, being part of the court of heaven, knows about legal matters!

I have entitled our message for this morning, “Legal Counsel for Christians.” You may not realize it, but the Bible is full of courtroom imagery. The most noteworthy example is the great white throne of judgement seen in the book of Revelation (20:11-15). Did you know that Jesus will be there ...read more
