    40 Days of Purpose Week 2 – Worship Rom 12:1-2 We were told last week that we were created to be loved by God and to be in relationship with him. The topic slated for this week is “worship”. We’re created to worship God. That’s our purpose. But what does that mean? I have a sermon ...read more

    Doubting Thomas (Judas Thomas) and dealing with doubt

    A defendant was on trial for murder in Oklahoma. There was strong evidence indicating guilt, but there was no corpse.

     | 11,895 views

    How do you know if you are inching away from a relationship with God? The story of the Prodigal Son features two sons - this is the one who don’t often hear about. Yet he usually bears the closest resemblance to those in the church.

    The Prodigal Who Stayed Home Luke 15:1, 2, and 25-32 "Tax collectors and other notorious sinners often came to listen to Jesus teach. This made the Pharisees and teachers of religious law complain that he was associating with such despicable people - even eating with them!" These two verses from ...read more

    In this sermon I address the idea of complaining and groaning in a decaying world. How do we approach and deal with pain?

    July 14, 2005 Romans 8:18-25 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us. The creation waits in eager expectation for the sons of God to be revealed. For the creation was subjected to frustration, not by its own choice, but by ...read more

    If abortion has been common throughout human history, why would Christians continue to oppose it? The case for Life.

    SE102404 STOP THE WORLD 4. Abortion As we’ve seen today, Abortion is not new. It may be one of the hottest political topics in this nation for the last 30 years, but it’s not new.

    A New Kind Of Righteousness Series

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jan 30, 2005
    based on 39 ratings
     | 7,094 views

    Jesus’ new kind of righteousness is based on: 1. Internals rather than externals. 2. Transformation rather than avoiding transgressions. 3. A relationship rather than rules.

    Perhaps you have seen it. It is a bumper sticker which displays the slogan: “Christians Aren’t Perfect, Just Forgiven.” It is a catchy phrase, the only problem is that it misrepresents the Christian life. Is that all we are, “just forgiven”? Is there no more to it than that? Do we, in the ...read more
