    Jesus is not only the incarnate God who was born in Bethlehem, he is also the God who will come again in power and glory. This truth gives our lives a new perspective and a new purpose.

    Luke 21:25-36 “Discover The Christ Who Will Come Again” INTRODUCTION Spending time with someone gives you the opportunity to discover things about them and get to know them better. This is true for our relationships with each other, and our relationship with God. Not that God needs to learn ...read more

    Courage does not always ROAR! Sometimes real courage finds a quiet place, and rest, and listens for the quiet voice at the ending of the day, and purpose within the heart, "I WILL TRY AGAIN TOMORROW!"

    HEAVY? LIFE SEEMS SO HEAVY? By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com Sometimes Christmas, sickness, and life can be SO HEAVY? WHAT CAN I DO? I.

    What Is Jesus To You? Series

    We all have expectations of who Jesus is and what He is about. Are yours correct? Jesus’ family, friends, and even His enemies had misconceptions about His real purpose.

    What is Jesus to you? It’s an honest question. A recent online poll found that 37% said Jesus may or may not have even existed and that there is no way to know for sure, 23% said that the gospels are a bunch of fictional tales, 16% say that he may have existed but so many myths have grown up around ...read more

    What Crime Did Jesus Commit? Series

    We see the context that sets up the reason Jesus was rejected by the Jews. He called for integrity, challenged their authority, claimed to be deity. We then move from the reasons to the purpose - our justification.

    Almost 2000 years ago, Jesus asked His followers a question: “Who do you say I am?” It’s still the fundamental question of life. And the answer creates controversy. It’s one reason why Mel Gibson’s film, The Passion of the Christ, is so controversial. This is a film that has had the audacity ...read more

    This sermon gives two reasons that Jesus’ birth is so important. I. It shows God’s LOVE for us. II. It shows God’s PURPOSE for us.

    Christ At Christmas - The Greatest Gift Of All Our text for today consists of one verse – it is found in John chapter one and verse fourteen. Please follow along with me as I read: “And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten ...read more

    Our character is not set by genetics or the failures or mistakes of the past. We have a CHOICE. We can CHANGE. We can become someone capable of containing God and accomplishing His purposes.

    2 Timothy 2:20 In a large house there are articles not only of gold and silver, but also of wood and clay; some are for noble purposes and some for ignoble. 21 If a man cleanses himself from the latter, he will be an instrument for noble purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do ...read more

    Joel - Rend Your Heart Series

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Mar 4, 2013
     | 11,053 views

    Realisation leads to Repentance, and that leads to Restoration. In realisation, we need fresh revelations of God. In repentance, we need to see the good purposes of God. In restoration, we seek to return to God.

    [Read Joel 2:11b-14] `Even now,` declares the LORD, `return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning.` 13Rend your heart and not your garments. Return to the LORD your God, for he is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love, and he relents from ...read more

    God’s will for us is to enter into His amazing plan and purpose to have great joy in His presence and in His grace. Now how we respond to this invitation, is very important!

    From the beginning, the family has played a critical role in the outworking of God's purposes on earth. As the fundamental building block of society, it was designed to provide the context for the nurture and training of each succeeding generation.

    The family was also designed to reflect and flesh out spiritual truth. Scripture uses the imagery of the family to speak of our relationship with God in Christ. As believers, we are adopted children in the household of God (Rom. 8:15-17). We are also heirs with Christ (Rom. 8:17; Eph. 1:11; 3:6). ...read more

    The purpose of this sermon is to motivate the hearers to “tell somebody” that there is a price tag to consider before committing oneself to following Jesus Christ. Because it could mean becoming a geographical nomad.

    U.S. Army Chaplain (MAJ) Ken Harris, Jr. West Fort Hood Chapel Second Sunday of June Killeen, TX 27 June 2010 Big Idea: For some believers to follow Jesus means more than just believing in Him. It also means becoming a geographical nomad. Scriptural References: EAI (Expository; ...read more
