    In this powerful word, Danielle Parker reveals how God uses the unexpected, the hidden, and the overlooked to shift history. If you’ve ever felt out of place, it’s because you were born to disrupt, not to conform. You are Heaven’s surprise move—and when God plays you, everything changes.

    I Am Glad to Be a Wild Card By Danielle Parker INTRODUCTION: The Ones Who Don’t Fit Let’s be honest—many of us have spent years asking the wrong questions. Questions like: “Why am I so different?” “Why does my story seem so off-course compared to others?” “Why am I always the one people ...read more

    based on 26 ratings
     | 5,448 views

    Trials and troubles affect us all. Sometimes however, we don’t understand why God permits difficulty in the lives of His children. Using rock tumbling as a backdrop, this message seeks to illustrate God’s purpose in problems.

    TUMBLING STONES and TRANSFORMING SAINTS Have you ever noticed the difference between rocks found in a protected cove by the ocean and those found lying on the shore, unprotected from the violence of crashing waves?

    based on 19 ratings
     | 6,461 views

    The answer to life’s meaning is not within us; it can be found only in a relationship with God. This sermon parallels & compliments Rick Warren’s "Purpose Driven Life" (ch.1-7) but is not a rehash. It takes the theme and looks at it from a different an

  • Our Loving God Series

    Contributed by Brian Bill on May 13, 2003
    based on 219 ratings
     | 60,434 views

    I purposely decided to preach on the topic of God’s love at the end of this series because love is an essential attribute of God, the capstone of His personality. Having said that, I feel overwhelmed and challenged by the task of trying to put into words

    Our Loving God I know I got a lot of mileage last week out of turning 40 but I thought I’d begin this morning with a story about what happened when a young couple invited their aging pastor over for Sunday dinner. While the parents were in the kitchen preparing the meal, the minister asked their ...read more

  • Where Is The God Of Justice?

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 25, 2010
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,762 views

    For Martin Luther King Day 1988: It is irresponsible to continue to whine about God's absence in the face of injustice. He is refining His church to address justice, and will bless us when we give ourselves without reserve to His purposes.

    Some twenty-four centuries ago, when the prophet Malachi's ears were assaulted by an impertinent question, he heard it as a confession of irresponsibility. When the men and women of Judah shouted at this prophet, who had accused them of wearying God, who had charged that their blabbering talk was ...read more

    God sees and values our hearts over outward appearances, choosing and loving the overlooked and ordinary to accomplish extraordinary purposes through His grace.

    Maybe you walked in today carrying the sting of being overlooked.

Our God loves to surprise us. He ...read more

    I am no different from anybody else here. And the proof of that is that there are times I feel like looking at people and saying the same seven words you do. They are, "Sometimes I wonder if you really care." Now obviously there are times I feel like saying that more than others and there are some ...read more
