    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 4, 2009
     | 4,318 views

    The cross hits us like a two-by-four to get our attention and remind us of our sin, teach us how God suffers for that sin, and show us how far He will go to call us back to Himself.

    There is an old story -- so old, in fact, that I will not ask you to stop me if you’ve heard it before, because you have heard it before. But the story concerns a fellow riding on a cart, pulled by a stubborn old mule. It seems that this fellow liked to brag that he never had to whip the mule, he ...read more

    How often in trials and tribulations do we needlessly suffer because we are seeking the advice of others and cherishing sin in our hearts when we ought to get before the Great Physician Jesus, repent and experience His grace and mercy?

    Asaph was an anointed Levite worship leader who wrote 12 psalms and was appointed by David as a leader at the Temple. Yet this anointed man of God suffered a time of discouragement. But by remembering God's deeds and wonders he was restored to fresh power.

    FROM TIRED TO INSPIRED Ps. 77 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: NEW YEARS JOKES 1. A New Year's resolution is something that goes in one year and out the other. 2.

    Because God is our Banner, there should be 3 R's in our lives: 1. Resistance to the world in us, 2. God should be our Rallying Point, and 3. the Redeemer's Name -- Jesus Christ -- gives us authority over sickness & demons, it saves us & we gather in it.

    JEHOVAH-NISSI Isa. 59:19, Ex. 17:15 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A pastor had a little kitten stuck up in a tree.

    Lord Of The Storm

    Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Mar 21, 2021
     | 3,808 views

    As Lord of all creation, Jesus won’t let anything stop his plan to redeem sinners. So there is nothing more powerful than these words of comfort for his believers: “It is I.” His words overcome all our fears: “I am Jesus. Do not be afraid.”

    It is humbling to stand at the edge of the ocean. Looking out over the water, seeing the pounding surf and hearing the noise of the breakers, you realize your smallness. This is creation’s awe-inspiring power. And it’s not only impressive, it can also be dangerous. Sometimes the surfers have to ...read more

    Daniel 4: Overcoming Pride Series

    Contributed by Vic Folkert on Sep 3, 2020
     | 7,222 views

    Self-focused pride 1) causes anxiety, 2) leads to a fall, 3) can be redeemed through God-focused humility. We can humble ourselves by 1) recognizing God as sovereign, 2) crediting God for our abilities, and 3) directing our gifts to the good of others.

    PUTTING PRIDE IN ITS PLACE—Daniel 4 PRIDE. One of the “Seven Deadly Sins,” along with greed, wrath, envy, lust, gluttony, and sloth. But is it always bad? There is a kind of healthy pride, which values one’s abilities, celebrates achievement, and motivates positive behavior. Paul refers to ...read more

    As prolific as the church was in the days of Paul, it suffers today. Either people do not come, or people come for the wrong reasons. The church is abundantly immersed in paradoxes. Whether verbalized, or thought, the operative question of the day is, “

    Lord of hosts, who is wonderful in counsel and excellent in guidance. When we go through deep trials or great suffering, we need to be reminded that God is working purposefully, intelligently, and lovingly in our lives.

    Let the Spirit Guide You as He Directed Joseph(Genesis 37:5-37:38) Jesus said, "When He the Spirit of truth is come. He will guide you into all truth."

    How Great Is Your Love

    based on 19 ratings
     | 10,972 views

    Love is an uncommon force that copes with suffering. By enduring the pain, sorrow and anger we are exhibiting God’s unconditional love. People who are mature in love endure the pain of selfish, critical and immature scoffers.

    How Great is Your Love - I Cor. 13:4-7 Illustration: One evening while appearing on CNN’s Larry King Live, Jack Kemp, the honorable congressman from New York, made an insightful comment about the religious right when he said, “People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you ...read more

    Whatever is broken in your life, Jesus can fix it. When suffering or religious rules bend you out of shape, let Jesus get you bent on the joy of God’s kingdom.

    When You Get Bent Out of Shape Luke 13:10-21 by David O. Dykes INTRODUCTION I recently read a funny story that illustrates how most of us are never satisfied.

    Beyond The Fear Of Infection Series

    Contributed by Paul Kallan on Feb 15, 2003
    based on 24 ratings
     | 3,365 views

    The courage of solidarity leads us to stand above the fear of infection and touch the other in his suffering and to lift him out of exclusion, loss of relationship and death. Then we become witnesses to the power of God in the world.

    The gospel passage Mark 1.40-45 shows how God relates himself to the human infirmities of body and mind. The story shows the possibility of human suffering under physical and mental infirmities. The story brings us clarity through the two opposing behaviours. God tries to bring healing into such a ...read more

    Depictions of Christ suffering on the cross are common in Christian literature and iconography. Few though are the depictions of Jesus walking around exhausted, during his earthly ministry. Yet the tiredness of Jesus is seen commonly in the Gospels, and

    Our Gospel reading this morning is from Mark chapter 7, where we come across a Jesus who is tired - tired, I think, to the point of exhaustion. This is not the sort of depiction of Jesus that is given much attention by the church. I’ve never seen a stained-glass window with an image of Jesus ...read more
