     | 20,628 views

    Jesus didn’t come to save you from your circumstances. He came to save you from your sins. Even though the people were looking for a Lion King to come save them from the Romans, Jesus came as a Lamb to the slaughter so he could really save them.

    A Palm Sunday Hosanna Matthew 21:1-11 As they approached Jerusalem and came to Bethphage on the Mount of Olives, Jesus sent two disciples, 2 saying to them, "Go to the village ahead of you, and at once you will find a donkey tied there, with her colt by her. Untie them and bring them to me. 3 If ...read more

    Job's three friends spoke to him throughout the book of Job. Much of what they said was wrong and hurtful. However, their initial reaction was one that we all should pay attention to.

    Introduction The story of Job is one that has been talked about through the ages. This one man, lost so much, in such a short period of time, and still found a way to move on with his life. But, he didn’t do it alone. When we talk about the book of Job, we normally talk about his ...read more

    Annual Theme sermon for 1989. Some of us have entered the fold by the back doors, for all the wrong reasons. We need to get that right, and then obey the Lord's invitation to bring others to the only door to the only fold.

It was an insistent loud knocking, but at first we couldn't find out where it was coming from. Our secretary went down the hallway to the door on the alley, but it ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,146 views

    For Reformation Sunday, October 1987: Job in the Old Testament and Luther in the Reformation Era were chronically unhappy people, but used that as a form of spiritual energy to drive them toward creative achievement and an honest personal faith.

    It looks as though some people are just born to be unhappy. There are some people who are going to approach nearly everything with a complaint or a gripe, who are going to make a personal issue out of everything. Nothing is quite good enough, nothing quite satisfies. There are folks whose ...read more

     | 10,417 views

    So often in the Church we pretend that everything is perfect, but truth is, it isn’t. The book of James offers insight into how to cure this ailment.

    Stained-Glass Masquerade (James 5:13-16) Intro: Do you ever walk in to a church service and begin to question the validity of the perfection that’s displayed? Do you ever look around at the people and ask “Is there anyone in here who fails?” or “Has anyone fallen down in their walk with God ...read more

    An article in a recent USA Today reported that in an online survey of 1000 adults, “three-quarters of Americans believe the country was better off in the ‘80s than now.” What is noteworthy about the poll is that some who answered in the affirmative weren’t even alive during the 1980s. Isn’t that ...read more
