    The story of the Good Samaritan confronts us with several implications for living a life of faith.

    Stories Jesus Told: When Good is Bad—The Story of the Good Samaritan Luke 10:25-37 Jesus was such a captive communicator because he told stories, and people then, just like us now, loved stories. Jesus told stories to make a point in a more compelling way than simply stating the point. And ...read more

    This is a sermon for all of you out there looking for your place in the ministry. Continue to be hungry and eat your fill as you take in this prophetic word.

    #7 -- Joy Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 19,381 views

    Having joy is not dependent on circumstances but comes from God, is Jesus-specific, and something that we are called to practice.

    Introduction: A Joyless World As we continue listening to these songs for the road, we come to a song of joy. To begin I want to read a couple of quotes about joy. C.S. Lewis once said this: “We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition, when infinite joy is offered ...read more

    #12 -- Humility Series

    Contributed by Derek Melanson on Nov 17, 2006
    based on 5 ratings
     | 10,680 views

    Jesus teaches us three things about humility: it starts at the bottom, it grows out of gratitude, and it is an act of faith.

    “Oh, it’s hard to be humble . . .!” Have you ever heard that little tune, “Oh, it’s hard to be humble, when you’re prefect in every way?” It’s a little tune I remember from growing up. And I read a couple of stories this week that sort of illustrate this song very well. The first was about Henry ...read more

It’s the only ...read more

     | 10,196 views

    Storms! We just do not know what to do with them. For some the presences of storms are indicators that something must have went wrong. How are we to look at storms – are they from the devil, or the cause and effect of disobedience? Or maybe there is a thi

    "We're #1!"

    Contributed by Tony Searles on Nov 24, 2006
    based on 3 ratings
     | 4,505 views

    The message explores the idea of being the best and the greatest. However, in the Kingdom of God, that is defined in ways that this world cannot understand. In fact, that should not even be our goal...serving Christ with our all is the priority.

    Stand & Read - Luke 22:24-30 “And there arose also a dispute among them as to which one of them was regarded to be greatest. [25] And He said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who have authority over them are called ’Benefactors.’ [26] "But not so with you, but let ...read more
