    How Wise People Build Wealth Series

    Contributed by Wayne Cordeiro on Nov 13, 2007
    based on 44 ratings
     | 26,537 views

    Wealth is not just the accumulation of money. That would be the wrong target. Wealth is not solely money. In fact, this is not a message of how to achieve your financial dreams. This is a message about how to live right.

    Raised Poor A lot of our perception about wealth and riches comes from the way we were raised. If you were raised in poor conditions, you have a very different view of wealth and what it means than someone who was affluent. Building wealth was always a mystery to me! I grew up in the poorer part ...read more

    The words of Psalm 97:10 call us to action - to love the Lord is to actively oppose evil in our lives and in the world.

    Missed It By That Much Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jul 20, 2008
    based on 66 ratings
     | 14,114 views

    One of Maxwell Smart’s common phrases was "I missed it by that much." That was funny on a sitcom, but in the real world - and in the spiritual world - that can be deadly.

    OPEN: Video of Maxwell Smart ending in “missed it by that much” Back in the 60’s the spies on TV and in the movies were heroes. Whether it was James Bond, Matt Helm, Napoleon Solo, or the cast from Mission Impossible - they were suave and resourceful, capable of escaping danger and death with ...read more

    Pain Turned Into Joy Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 12, 2009
    based on 12 ratings
     | 18,367 views

    It seems unreal that pain could be turned into joy. Yet pain is the very stuff of joy. It will come, not instantaneously, but completely. The risen Christ proves this, and can transform our disappointments, disillusionments, and shame into joy.

    “You will have pain, but y our pain will turn into joy.” That brings back memories of the doctor’s office and that giant needle moving ever closer. “This will hurt a little bit.” A little bit! When you are a year old, it hurts a lot, and there is no joy in it. No, I do not remember being one ...read more

    Everything Falls Apart Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021
     | 2,936 views

    The story of what happened in the Garden of Eden is important – powerfully important. And I want to make you aware at the outset, that this is not just the story of the wrongdoings of two people. No, it’s the story of how the first two people’s wrongdoing affects you and me.

    We’re doing a series on God’s Big Story where we are tracing the central storyline of the Bible. The Bible isn’t a mass of unconnected stories. Instead, it is one story. And that is exactly the aim of this series – to see the big picture of the Bible. I want you to see the Bible is a single story. ...read more

    Conquering Inner Struggles! Series

    based on 110 ratings
     | 9,179 views

    Why do we do the things we do? What causes us to do things we really don’t want to do? Why do I struggle with not doing the things I really want to do? Conscience is our moral awareness that judges an action either right or wrong. It’s our inborn sense of right and wrong.

    "I'd Rather Have Jesus"

     | 23,891 views

    Many people are searching for life. They are asking, "Why am I here?" "What is life all about?" The problem is they’re searching in the wrong places. Only Jesus has the answer.

    “I’d Rather Have Jesus” John 14:1-7 A couple weeks ago I was talking to a young father and mother with a four year old in their home. He designs computer chips and chip boards in his home as an independent contractor. In our discussion I made reference to the uniqueness of Jesus Christ and ...read more

    What Happens After True Repentance?

    Contributed by Bruce Willis on Jun 12, 2007
    based on 14 ratings
     | 10,749 views

    This sermon deals with one scenario of what goes wrong in a Believer’s life after being born again and suggests how to live the Christian life victoriously from an Exchanged-Life perspective.

    New Christians are exciting to be around. You can usually pick them out in a group. They’re the ones with the glow on their faces, ecstatic over the fact that God loves them and excited about what Jesus is doing in their lives. But somewhere down the road, the glow vanishes. What happens after ...read more

    Be Your Own Boss!

    Most Americans work and much of their life is controlled by someone else. There certainly is nothing wrong with that. This country could not operate unless people were willing to fill the jobs that are needed.

    Some jobs require a lot from folks who apply for them. It is essential to find qualified people to fill these jobs. Illus: A few months ago, there was an opening with the CIA for an assassin. Two men and a woman applied for this job. The day came for the final test to see which person would get ...read more

     | 7,854 views

    "Why does God allow bad things to happen to good people?" That is the question that many ask to prove that God either does not exist, or He doesn't care. It all comes down to what is and what is not God's will.

    GOD’S NOT DEAD: GOD’S WILL A. In the movie “God’s Not Dead”, the character Josh Wheaten, the Freshman defending his BELIEF in God in Professor Raddison’s philosophy class in, states “Evil is the atheists most potent weapon against ...read more

     | 140 views

    Grace shattered the world’s scorekeeping; salvation is not earned by balance but received by the cross that broke the scales.

    The Story: Earning Points with God A few years ago I was standing in line at the grocery store with one item—a loaf of bread. The lady in front of me had about 200. You know that line you always pick because it looks fast but somehow turns into a hostage situation? So I’m standing there while ...read more

    Shall Not The Judge Of All The Earth Do Right Series

    Paul went into this question and answer section to debunk the wrong thoughts of the Jews, affirming the value of the covenant, God's faithfulness to His promises, and His righteous judgment for all people.

    The truth of the Gospel is that all men have sinned and come under the wrath of God. • Everyone will be judged by the same measure, for God does not show favouritism (2:11). Both the Jews and the Greeks will be judged for their sin. • Paul took extra efforts to draw attention to the Jews because ...read more
