    1. We want a god we can control. 2. We want a god we can understand. 3. We want a god who will not make demands.

    Bread & Expectations John 6:22-35 I was watching TV not long ago — just sitting back on the couch and relaxing. I had eaten a great dinner Sue had prepared. I probably ate too much. But as I was watching a television program, I saw a guy eating a sandwich, and suddenly I had an urge for a ...read more

    A look at the realities which Mary and Joseph had to face in living out God’s will.

    My son-in-law was looking for Advent candles in a Christian bookstore. They use the Advent candles for family worship during this season so their hearts will be tuned to the true spirit and meaning of Christmas. As he brought the package of candles to the counter he asked the sales clerk if they ...read more

    based on 44 ratings
     | 24,992 views

    1. This kind of King elicits fear in us. 2. This kind of King inspires hope in us. 3. This kind of King makes us heirs with him.

    Very often, at Christmas, we hear stories retold, like Mark Twain’s "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court", where King Arthur dresses in peasant’s garb and visits the subjects of his kingdom. The king lays aside his royal robes and privileges in order to identify with life outside the ...read more

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jan 28, 2007
    based on 65 ratings
     | 19,926 views

    True revival comes when there is: 1. A call to prayer. 2. A reemergence of God’s Word. 3. A sense of conviction and true repentance.

    Josiah: When Reform Is Not Enough 2 Chronicles 34:16-21 The story of Josiah, King of Judah, is one of the most unusual in the Old Testament in many ways.

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Feb 4, 2007
    based on 97 ratings
     | 79,444 views

    Why is it that makes it difficult to find our way back home? Because: 1. The rebellion of the human heart. 2. We don’t know the way. 3. We have to decide what is important.

    CNN’s website featured an article about Frank Warren, editor of the book The Secret Lives of Men and Women: A PostSecret Book.

    Barriers

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Apr 28, 2013
    based on 6 ratings
     | 33,519 views

    Instead of removing barriers to faith, Jesus erects them. Why?

    The story we have read together today is surprising in many ways. The way Jesus handles this situation is confusing, because some of the things Jesus are saying are upsetting his followers, and it seems that he does not make it easier, but harder for them. Our natural instinct is to take down ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 18,675 views

    A look at various approaches to making ethical decisions.

    When I taught an ethics course, as an adjunct, at Mount Vernon Nazarene University, I started the class by talking about the fact that moral decisions are at times exceedingly complex. Black and white categories do not work very well in the real stuff of life. To demonstrate this I used an ...read more

    I Believe In The Virgin Mary

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on May 13, 2012
    based on 11 ratings
     | 13,244 views

    What is the significance of the virgin birth.

    I believe in the Virgin Mary. That may sound like a strange sermon title for a Protestant, but actually it is quite important. It is important to believe that there was such a person in history, that she was the mother of Christ, and that she was a virgin at the time of his birth. In fact, this ...read more

    When God Gave A Party And Nobody Came

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Oct 24, 2011

     | 33,481 views

    An exegesis of the parable of the King who gave a wedding banquet for his son and people refused the invitation.

    The parable at which we are looking today comes after a series of confrontations Jesus has had with the Pharisees — the religious leaders of the day. They question whether he has the right to do the things he does and by what authority he speaks. They do not want to be a part of his ...read more
