    If morning devotions were important to Jesus and David, they should also be important to us, if not more vital to our spiritual sustenance.

    Do You Give God the First Fruits of Your Day (Mark 1:35-37) Introduction: The shortening of private devotions starves the soul. William Wilberforce, Christian statesman of Great Britain in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, once said, “I must secure more time for private devotions.” Following ...read more

    Jesus blessed the people, a radical movement of sustaining faith that permitted the hope of the people to live in the spirit of Christ to forgive man's sins.

    Hosanna! Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Sep 12, 2013
     | 6,700 views

    To the Jews, Hosanna meant "Help - Save us!" But it morphed in its meaning in a way that gives us all hope. This psalm is jammed full of Messianic references and hope for the future king of the world: Jesus.

    In this psalm we see the victory brought about by the Lord for a king of Israel. It is full of Messianic references. As such I think we can also safely look at it in terms of the victory God won for us over sin through His Son Jesus. Let’s begin, though, in Mark 11, which we normally study ...read more

     | 18,286 views

    Christians like Eagles are special built by God to soar the heights of glory.

    Quotes: “There is an eagle in me that wants to soar, and there is a hippopotamus in me that wants to wallow in the mud” - Carl Sandburg “If we never had the courage to take a leap of faith, we'd be cheating God out of a chance to mount us up with wings like eagles and watch us ...read more

    Entering The Race Pt.1

    Contributed by Howard Strickland on Sep 4, 2011

     | 3,793 views

    Paul uses the analogy of a runner to describe the Christians spiritual growth. No living-breathing believer has reached their goal of Christlikeness, but like the runner in a race, you must continue to pursue it. To pursue means to begin to dream, to p

    James and John thought they were pulling a fast one. But their values were updside down.

    Passage: Matthew 20:20-28 Intro: The great thing about studying a book all the way thru is that you begin to identify recurring themes. 1. and the Bible is a book where repetition means emphasis, because it is essentially a Hebrew book. 2. ever since the Beatitudes way back in chapter 5, and ...read more

    Fishers Of Men Series

     | 7,590 views

    If we do not allow anything to get in the way of following Jesus Christ, we will be “fishers of men” as well, leading them to be saved from their sins!

    A couple of questions to start out with: Who was the first person that Jesus called to be one of the 12 Disciples? Open your Bibles briefly to John 1:37….. Now, what was the big Lake or Sea near Nazareth where Jesus grew up? Of the original 12, how many were fishermen? = at least 7 (John ...read more

    I am ready to live for Jesus like I should. What should that look like in my life? How do I know if I am doing what I should be doing?

    Am I Living for Jesus? Hebrews 10:19-22 Introduction A couple weeks ago on Sunday night, we found out that Jesus did some pretty incredible things for us, when I preached from verses 11-18.

    No One Likes A Bullying God Series

    Contributed by Troy Luttrell on Mar 21, 2014
     | 5,702 views

    This sermon addresses the question that if God is a God of love and mercy, why does the Bible seem to suggest that God is more like a bully that He is friend.

    Background: • Last week we talked about whether it is possible for God to change His mind. And we learned that God’s heart is set to move to one of two positions depending on man’s reaction….judgment for wickedness; mercy and forgiveness for ...read more

    Go The First Ten Feet

    Contributed by Thomas Clawser on Apr 8, 2017
     | 4,718 views

    Self-denial is to be lifted with Jesus—and the first ten feet of his ascent is on the Cross. You cannot reach for Jesus without letting go of the things you’re holding onto. Make it your passion to go the first ten feet with Jesus.

    "When I am lifted-up," Jesus said, "I will draw all people to myself." And just in case you are tempted to interpret this up-lifted status to mean something glitzy, John sticks in a little commentary in verse 33 to make clear that the "lifting up" Jesus had in mind was the cross. Ultimately Jesus ...read more
