    Contributed by Ray Scott on Oct 9, 2004
    based on 66 ratings
     | 23,395 views

    The Bible promises us that life will be tough. This message deals with Paul & Silas in prison, and how God brought them through ... just like He can bring you through.

    “There’s Victory In Jesus” Acts 16:25-34 INTRODUCTION: The last few weeks haven’t been easy for most of us … we have been through, and survived 2 hurricanes. For SOME of us, it has been even worse: • Billy Bass – Heart Cauterization. • John Ross – Back Surgery. • Michelle Smith – ...read more

  • Commitment Or Compromise?

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Nov 23, 2008
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,499 views

    Are we living Christian lives or just fooling ourselves? Is there a comfortable cross for us? Let’s consider the Lord’s own life and calling as we reflect on the prisoner Paul.

    Paul took prison ministry seriously. In fact, the last 8 chapters (21-28) of Acts record Paul’s imprisonment and mission work as a prisoner. While the messenger is a prisoner, the message continues to go forth and impact the world! This is another confirmation that the cause of Christ is of God ...read more

  • Third Sunday Of Advent, Year A: Gaudete Sunday--John The Baptist: Danger And Beauty Of The Barren Places

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Nov 2, 2022
     | 1,414 views

    It is just these types of lonely, painful moments that Jesus wants to redeem. John the Baptist got ministered to in prison by Jesus. He answered John’s question and complimented him to others.

    A bedraggled little man once walked the streets of an Italian town 100 years ago. Many of the townspeople saw his pallid face, often tearful, as he stumbled along the cobblestone streets and narrow alleys. One day a kind soul, witnessing the man’s misery, came up to him, hoping to lift his sad ...read more

  • The Fear Of The Lord Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Sep 12, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,272 views

    Fear doesn’t mean cowering in the corner like God is some North Vietnamese dictator and you are a prisoner of war. Fearing the Lord means taking God seriously and not casually.

    Too many people take God casually. Too few people take God seriously in our day. Too many people’s passion for Christ is like the helium balloons from my son’s graduation party. A few balloons had slipped up to the second floor of our home, some twenty feet up in the air. If you wonder how they ...read more

  • This Way Out

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Apr 28, 2023
     | 1,301 views

    We are imprisoned by sin in exactly the same way that we are imprisoned by gravity. We are prisoners of our own humanity, and it’s a life sentence with no time off for good behavior.

    When I was 12, I went on vacation with my family to a place called Iguazu Falls. Not many people in this country have ever heard of it. It’s only the second biggest waterfall in the world, after Niagara. It’s only the second highest waterfall in the world, after Victoria Falls. It’s at the top NE ...read more

  • I'm Possessed!

    Contributed by Ken Carlson on Oct 18, 2017
     | 10,199 views

    Big Idea: We are God's prized possession! This sermon brings into focus several aspects of our identity in Christ and what it means for believers to be God's prized possession, as the Apostle Peter lays out in his first epistle.

    INTRODUCTION Do you remember playing that “What do these things have in common?” game when you were younger? You’d have to look at a group of pictures or a list of words and determine what the common denominator was. For example, if I say: “Black, Brown, and Grizzly…What do these three have in ...read more

  • Within, Without Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Dec 11, 2008
     | 4,715 views

    Paul and John Mark, a study in maturing relationships. John Mark starts out young and conflicted; he is insecure around the powerful Paul; but Paul grows to accept him and think of him as useful.

    The Scripture texts I will be using today are scattered through several chapters in the Book of Acts, plus other locations in the New Testament. And so instead of simply reading passage after passage, let me put together a vignette, a character sketch, in order to make the life of John Mark ...read more

  • "If The Church Would Just Pray"

    Contributed by Bishop William Bryant Wilmore, Jr. on Aug 17, 2003
    based on 334 ratings
     | 87,883 views

    When Peter was in prison, awaiting what appeared to be a sure execution, the church prayed without ceasing for him and Peter was set free by an angel of the Lord. Powerful things happen the church prays.

    In the text, we find something taking place that seems to be missing in many churches today – that is church folk praying for church folk. In this particular case, a church member in trouble. The Apostle Peter is on death roll and all petitions to commute his sentence have been exhausted. ...read more

    Pentecost 6(C) - Believers are heirs according to God’s promise. We learn that God’s law makes sinners prisoners but it is our Lord that makes sinners his children.

    Contributed by Rev. M Edmunds on Jun 25, 2005
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,735 views

    I believe many today are experiencing the anxiety, the pain, and the excessive burden of a bad decision. You feel like your locked in an invisible prison…recriminating about the mistakes you made.

    Elder M. Edmunds Co-Pastor of United Ordained Church June 2002 My foundational scripture will come from verse eight, which says, “I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.” This is a companion of Psalm 51:8, which reads, “Then will I ...read more

    based on 399 ratings
     | 57,689 views

    The Gospel is a message of freedom... It is a message of good news for the poor; freedom for the prisoners; sight for the blind and of release for the oppressed. And it is a message that is still needed today...because far too many are still not free

    "When The Son Sets You Free" INTRODUCTION In the movie Brave Heart Mel Gibson plays the role of a man from Scotland whose name was Wallace. It was a great movie - very graphic in the battle scenes but it really gave you a feel of what battles were like back in those days. Wallace was ...read more
