  • Real Change

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,522 views

    Relationship with Jesus leads to real change, as it did for Zacchaeus (Luke 19:1-10)

    There are a lot of places the preacher can go with this text, and I suspect many of the hearers and readers will have been exposed to most of them. One of the traditional, and absolutely valid and true, expositions includes Jesus’ choice to minister to those who were outsiders. Tax ...read more

  • Our Baptismal Mission: Goodness, Beauty, Truth

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 7, 2010
     | 2,707 views

    If we are to minister to a world in need, we must give it what Jesus gave: goodness, beauty and truth

    The Baptism of the Lord January 10 2010 The first thing we should do today is correct a Hollywood-produced misconception about John’s baptism. Many of us grew up watching one or the other movie in which Jesus was baptized, or a large group of Protestant Christians were baptized in a river, ...read more

    God goes to the City that makes Him cry because of you and I.

    “This City Makes God Cry” Luke 19:41 We come today in our Lenten Journey to the point where Jesus is about to enter Jerusalem triumphantly. His ministry and life has been prophecy fulfilled.

  • The Two Meanings Of "End"

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Nov 3, 2013
     | 2,239 views

    There are two meanings to "end," and as we reach the conclusion of a liturgical year, we must plan for both.

    One of the legends circulating that purports to prove the superiority of the new liturgical calendar and new lectionary is that in the Extraordinary Form, we hear Scripture readings that really belong to the beginning of the year, not the end. Let’s be honest. We aren’t talking about ...read more

  • The Trouble With Truth

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Aug 11, 2015
    based on 2 ratings
     | 9,064 views

    Today Jews are looking to the time when God will be worshiped by Israel once again and Jerusalem will be the center of that worship. But just as in the days of Amos a false religion will replace the true worship. Saints that time is fast approaching

    Message: Today we look at a farmer who stands on the Word of God and who takes on a King who has replaced the word of God with a lie. It is really a David and Goliath kind of story but this farmer never throws a stone he just uses God’s word to cut this king down to size. This farmer goes to ...read more

  • Let’s Not Miss The Harvest! (Part 2) Series

    Contributed by Dan Proctor on Aug 22, 2016
     | 7,143 views

    Jesus was too concerned about the souls of people to get distracted with minor, unimportant matters. If we aren’t focused on Christ, we can become self-absorbed and inwardly focused like the Pharisees, and we’ll miss the harvest.

    Let’s Not Miss The Harvest! Matthew 9 – Part 2 Introduction: 1. Did you know that religious people can be very mean and cold-hearted? People who are religious, but aren’t truly walking with God can be some of the nastiest people you’ve ever met. 2. In Jesus’ day, ...read more

  • Good Things Happen On The Sabbath

    Contributed by Mari Larson on Jun 3, 2018
     | 3,124 views

    While we can agree with Jesus that "the sabbath is made for humankind and not humankind for the sabbath," we are wrong to disregard it.

    In 1986, the good people of Bismarck, North Dakota, thought it was time to overturn or at least soften the blue laws which closed businesses on Sundays. Amid great controversy, Dayton’s Department Store, Target, and many stores and restaurants were to open at noon. Dayton’s and Target were both ...read more

  • A Contrast In Heart Attitudes Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jun 25, 2018
     | 4,535 views

    Dealing with people means adjusting to a variety of responses. Some are just nasty, bitter, agitators; others more open-minded/gracious. Some are open to the Gospel, others become adversaries, while others do not embrace the Gospel but are not hostile.

    A Contrast in Heart Attitudes (Acts 17:1-15) 1. “On a highway in Indiana, about 20 cars were trailing behind a slow driver in the passing lane who wouldn’t change lanes. When Indiana State Trooper Sgt. Stephen Wheeles noticed the line of traffic, he decided to do something about it. “Wheeles, … in ...read more

    Why talk about recovery? Well, The 12 steps are based on biblical principles and were written at a time when the AA group was associated with teachings of a now defunct Christian organization called the Oxford Group.

    Why the Twelve Steps and the Bible?? It makes sense because 1) 12 steps are based on biblical principles and were written at a time when the AA group was associated with teachings of a now defunct Christian organization called the Oxford Group. This group was founded by Sam Shoemaker at the ...read more

    Fourth Sunday of Advent 2018 Rejoice The geo-political situation was grim. The population was divided.

    Idolatry, injustice and covenant unfaithfulness are the signs that we are no longer walking with God

    So maybe you’ve heard it said, ‘read your bible’ so you tried and failed. Our hope as leaders is that all of us will pick up God’s word and come to understand the true nature of God. After all, the bible is God’s Word curated over centuries detailing His nature, His will, the meaning of life and ...read more
