    Mourning The End Of Summer

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 26, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 10,879 views

    We find that we have dallied or been irresponsible, and the things we said we want to accomplish are impossible at this late date. But God is capable of redeeming even that element of irresponsibility if we renew our commitment to Him.

    Takoma Park Baptist Church, Washington, DC, August 28, 1988 Here we are at the end of summer, or nearly so. It's the end of August, which is at least psychologically the end of summer. It's the end of the summer feeling, for now it's back to reality, now it’s back to business and a ...read more

    Our task as a Church is to continue the work of John the Baptist, to proclaim the coming of the Messiah, the Christ, the one who’s brought salvation to all people and the gift of God’s Holy Spirit to renew us and transform us.

    It’s now just over 15 years since Mulder and Scully first appeared in the series ’The X-Files’, asking "Could there be something out there?" Mulder believed that the ’Truth is out there’ but Scully wasn’t quite sure. Of course, although the questions they were raising echoed those of lots of ...read more

    Prayers From The Deep - Part 2 Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 13, 2019
     | 6,409 views

    Like the prodigal son, Jonah came to himself in his moment of despair. He cried out unto the Lord, desiring renewed fellowship with Him. Seeking to flee the Lord's presence cannot delay the inevitable.

    Prayers from the Deep (Part 2) Jonah 1:17 – 2:10 In our last study we began the most familiar portion within the book of Jonah – his being swallowed by the great fish. Again, I want to emphasize the dominant theme conveyed throughout the book – the absolute sovereignty of God in all His dealings, ...read more

    The following sermon is going to review three witnesses of Christ’s resurrection and suggest that celebrating His lordship, removing all doubts, and a restoration and a renewed desire to serve Him are but just three wonderful ways to celebrate Easter!

    The Witnesses John 20:11-18, 24-29, 21:15-17 Online Sermon: http://www.mckeesfamily.com/?page_id=3567 There have been some amazing accomplishments over the course of human history.

    A message of hope in the times we live in. Faith can grow in our lives if we renew our walk by spending more time with the one who gave His Son's life for us.

    Let your love for others be like the pollen in the air. Good Morning Stand with me and lift your bible and repeat after me. This is my Bible. I am what it says I am. I can do what it says I can do. I am going to learn how to be what it says I can be. Today I will learn more of ...read more

    How long-dead sun-bleached bones revived, and become an exceeding great army.

    THE RESURRECTION OF THE DRY BONES. Ezekiel 37:1-14.

The LORD thereby challenges us within our seemingly impossible situation - whatever it may ...read more

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 10, 2020
     | 6,090 views

    Detours come during Development, Disasters, Accidents, Protocol, Apprehension (Sifting, Dragnet), etc. God rarely takes us to our destiny in straight lines - He normally has some development that requires detours. Abraham's detour was 25 years, Jacob's was about 20 years, etc. And yours?

    The Inherited Church Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 16, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,491 views

    To accomplish the task of evangelising our world, we must work as though our congregation was new. New churches have a vibrancy that can be lost as we grow older. In time, if we don't take care, we will have an "inherited church" rather than a vibrant, living congregation.

    “To the angel of the church in Sardis write: ‘The words of him who has the seven spirits of God and the seven stars. “‘I know your works. You have the reputation of being alive, but you are dead. Wake up, and strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have not found your works complete ...read more

    Roots Alive!

    Contributed by Kathy Findley on Oct 25, 2003
    based on 74 ratings
     | 17,990 views

    The premise of this sermon is that sometimes there is much more disappointment in our hearts than hope! Advent’s message through the Prophet Isaiah is that hope is hidden deep within us, safe and secure, and is ready to burst forth in renewed life.

    Advent II- Hope It was just this word of hope the people desperately needed to hear--the words that Isaiah wrote about the dry-looking stump with a green shoot growing out of it. The Israelites felt hopeless, in despair. The words Isaiah wrote told of that despairing and proclaimed that the ...read more

    All Christians can find renewed hope in times of disappointment by 1)keeping an eternal focus, 2)cast your anxiety upon the Lord, 3)be self-controlled and resist the devil, and 4)offer a sacrifice of praise.

    If there is anything I’ve learned in my years working as a pastor it is that things don’t always go the way we think they should go. I’ve been witness to more tragic stories than I wish – and the truth is, life is hard. God has chosen to use people just like us to be his ambassadors on this ...read more

    Although the foundation for revival is a renewed, passionate relationship with Jesus, it’s not good enough to just stop there. God wants us to share the Good News about His love with the lost and dying world around us!

    To restore a passion for the Christ, we need to remember the great privilege of being called to follow Jesus. This message is to help Christ followers renew a passion for Jesus by calling them back value God's favor over his blessings.

    When I come home from work and see my family for the first time during after a long day of work, my kids come running to give me a big hug and welcome me home. I love those times.
