    Resist The Devil Series

     | 13,016 views

    I see way too many Christians ineffective in their life because the devil has them tied up in knots. And in the Scriptures, God tells us as Christians what to do, but we are just not doing it. And I believe that it has to do with us not knowing how to resist the devil.

    Introduction I would like to begin today’s sermon by asking you a couple of questions? Here is the first question. If someone, in your life, that you trust tells you to do something, how likely are you to do what they tell you? I would say that if I trust them that I am likely to do what they say ...read more

    HoHum: It is rare to have a public figure come clean the way baseball great Pete Rose did after getting caught gambling on sports. He stood before a judge in 1990 and said, “Your honor, I’d like to say I’m very sorry, very shameful to be here today in front of you. I have no excuses, because it’s ...read more

    The one thing we can never do with Jesus is be bored by Him. We can reject Him, we can receive Him, we can love or hate him, but he can never be boring. We notice in Mark that people are often Astounded or Amazed by Jesus - and we should be as well.

    JESUS IS AMAZING: AN AMAZING TEACHER Text: Mark 1:21-45; Psalm 103:1-5 Introduction The one thing we can never do with Jesus is be bored by Him.

    You may be in a valley situation right now. It may seem as though everything is dead, everything is dislocated, messed up, dried up, washed out, and scattered but God is ready to breathe new life into your situation.

    Holy Armor

    Contributed by Mari Larson on Jul 27, 2015

    This sermon (preached the Sunday after the 2009 ELCA Churchwide Assembly) illustrates the Ephesians "Armor of God" imagery with the actions of the ELCA.

    We all have certain core traditions and beliefs that are important to us. They make us who we are, they define our own behaviours and the way we think other people should behave. That is what lies behind the Gospel passage from Mark that we heard a few minutes ago. As usual, the Pharisees and ...read more
