    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 6, 2011
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,068 views

    Christians have a long-standing tradition of being confused about church leadership and the identity of the Christian lay person. The Corinthian church experienced this problem even in the middle of the first century! Who are we?

    [Note: this sermon was so long -- or my preaching of it -- that I was only to cover my first point in 1/2 hour] Paul on the Defense: 2 Corinthians Intro (2 Corinthians 1:1-2, textual) 1. Paul plants the church in Corinth (about 51 A.D.) 2. Paul writes I Corinthians (about 54 A.D.) 3. Timothy and ...read more

    Call To A Collapsing Country Text: Jer.8: 1-12 Intro: The nation of Israel had enjoyed God’s blessings in an unprecedented way. God had personally chosen them to be His people from among all the peoples of the earth. According to the Scriptures, this was not due to any special attractiveness ...read more

  • In Search Of The North Pole

    Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Feb 13, 2015
    based on 65 ratings
     | 20,102 views

    In the Book "Winnie the Pooh and the North Pole"; Christopher Robin has organized a band of animals on a journey to the North Pole. It seems to me, that this expedition to the North Pole is symbolic of our culture's quest for the spiritual.

    For those not familiar with an Anglican Service, there are four Scriptures readings before the Message. Today's assigned Lessons are: 2 Kings 2:1-12 Psalm 50:1-6 ; 2 Corinthians 4:3-6 ; and Mark 9:2-9 .; Children's stories .... Can often bring insight... to greater Spiritual Truths.

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Jul 27, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,323 views

    Though the Lord shall judge the nation that practice wickedness, how shall we who follow Christ respond to the evil embraced and promoted within our culture?

    When the child of God sins, that child knows that God does not ignore that sin. Because He loves us, the LORD disciplines His people, and His discipline will not be pleasant. God’s discipline was never intended to be pleasant. Divine discipline is intended to impose … well, discipline! Indeed, ...read more

  • The Church Is One Foundation And Jesus Christ Her Lord.

    Contributed by James Linders on Jun 3, 2015
     | 3,170 views

    The church of God is a unified body and has a primary objective. The body of Christ (Church) can NOT be subjected to man-made traditions and denominations, and MUST be led by the spirit of God. Man is ONLY an overseer and NOT the head of the church.

    Acts 2:42 “They devoted themselves to the apostles' teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.” BEFORE Jesus departed from His disciples, to return to His heavenly kingdom, He gave them a FINAL instruction:"Go and make disciples of ALL the nations, ...read more

  • Hypocrisy Series

     | 3,775 views

    If Christians really love Jesus, why is there so much hurt in the church? Jesus confronted the hypocrisy of religious people and desires that his disciples walk in love.

    INTRODUCTION • In our new series, Hot Topics, we will dig into six tough topics that people inside and outside the church often think about (even if we don't ask about them out loud!): • If Christians love Jesus, why is there so much hypocrisy in the church? • How can we trust the Bible? ...read more

  • The Inherited Church Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Nov 16, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,742 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

     | 5,003 views

    Will you be ashamed when God tests your knowledge of the Word, both the written and living?

    Many bible colleges have found that many kids coming from Christian homes and even in Christian schools from K-4 to 12 lack some basic Bible knowledge and interpretation skills. Many people leave solid churches and end up in extremely Liberal churches and even cults. One study found that cults ...read more

  • Invitation To A Table For Two In The Wilderness

    Contributed by Ian Johnson on Feb 19, 2013
     | 5,252 views

    The call to come inward to the table is often ignored because many don’t see the value of such fellowship; their aim is to be doing where as the aim of the table for two is simply “Being” in His presence.

    The Christian faith is about relationship it’s not about religion or outward displays of Church life that are just mere forms of religious expression. Jesus spoke very firmly to the religious of the day, who felt they were doing the right thing in preserving religious tradition but ignoring ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 9,874 views

    1. Where are you drawing your strength from? 2. Are you relying on tradition, law, race, rank, religion, or sincerity? 3. Do you expect recognition when helping out someone in need?

    The Source of Our Strength- Philippians 3:1-11 Introduction: We all fall into the trap of comparing ourselves with others around us.

  • The Martyr’s Cry Series

    Contributed by Dan Cormie on Aug 22, 2010
     | 5,661 views

    Anything old is seen as negative, traditions that once served as a backbone of stability are discarded as hindrances, leadership positions are going to innovators and rebels and the voice of time tested truth is exchanged for the noise of cultural demand.

    Dakota Community Church Church History Sunday - 1 August 22, 2010 The Martyrs Cry Introduction Today we will start the first of a series of messages that will be spaced out, Lord willing, over the next few years approximately once every three to four months.
