    A New Name

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jan 5, 2003
    based on 214 ratings
     | 28,050 views

    As we think about the new year, we need to see that: 1. God is always doing a new thing. 2. Only God can bring about real change. 3. God’s new name for us means a new beginning.

    I love to read the comics, and one of my favorites used to be “Calvin and Hobbes.” Calvin and Hobbes are talking about the new year when Calvin says, “I’m getting disillusioned with these new years. They don’t seem very new at all Each new year is just like the old year Here another year has ...read more

    Sometimes God moves in our lives in such a way that it causes us pain, and our wounds are fresh and oozing. God is working a great work in our lives, even if we do not understand what is happening at the moment.

    When Pruning Season Comes John 15:1-10 In the early morning, just as the sun begins to brighten the sky, a man moves silently through a vineyard. He has work to do, and he does it with determination and precision. He pauses to sharpen a pruning knife, because he knows that he will be most ...read more

    Presenting Our Mouths: Swallowing, Spitting, Speaking Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 23, 2001
    based on 58 ratings
     | 12,726 views

    In order to be effective witnesses, we must first be knowledgeable -- swallowing God’s word; must then be cleansed spiritually -- spitting out whatever is no longer appropriate; and then speak with confidence and passion. Mini-messages with props.

    Our mouths get us into trouble. One of you said that to me the other day. You had opened your mouth to voice an opinion about something that should be done in the community where you live, and before you knew it, you were chairing the committee to get it done. Nobody had even noticed you were in ...read more

    Courage

     | 26,076 views

    Courage is critically important, because it is at the center of all the other Christian virtues. What convictions undergird and strengthen our courage?

    This morning, I’d like us to consider the topic of "courage". Not merely courage in a general sense, as an admirable character quality, or as a moral virtue that we should seek to cultivate. But specifically, as an aspect of Christian faith. I’d like for us to consider what part courage plays in ...read more

    Concentrates on the second beatitude with brief comment on teh first.

    Blessed are those who mourn. What are the beatitudes there for? What was Jesus doing when he gave these words to these people?
