    Integrity And The Christian

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jul 14, 2002
    based on 74 ratings
     | 9,135 views

    Christians need integrity in these important areas: Money, Sex, Power.

    The news has been rife with stories of the lack of integrity in our culture. First it was the Enron scandal and the accounting firm of Arthur Anderson. Then it was WorldCom. Even Martha Stewart, the apron-clad icon of hominess, has been brought into disrepute through what appears to be ...read more

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Feb 8, 2001
    based on 79 ratings
     | 6,481 views

    We learn to be a disciple when we make a commitment to learn, to grow and to be in relationship.

    As we have thought together about what it means to be the church, we have considered what it means to worship, what it means to have a relationship with God, and what it means for us to be in relationship with each other. This morning we consider what it means to truly be a disciple of Christ. I ...read more

    Max Lucado writes: “For some, Jesus is a good luck charm. The ‘Rabbit’s Foot Redeemer.’ Pocket-sized. Handy. Easily packaged. Easily understood. Easily diagramed. You can put his picture on your wall or you can stick it in your wallet as insurance. You can frame him. Dangle him from your ...read more

    Is God Fair?

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Sep 10, 2006
    based on 24 ratings
     | 11,822 views

    To answer the question, we also have to ask: 1. Is God just? 2. Is God impartial? 3. Is God fair?

    Life is not fair. Most of us understand that. It was not fair that some children died at birth or had crippling diseases, and I have been allowed to live and enjoy good health. It was not fair that some were born with cerebral palsy and I was able to grasp difficult concepts and get passing ...read more

    Objections to "Ticket Theology": 1. It trivializes the Christian life. 2. It misses the point of the Christian life. 3. It reduces the Christian life to a formula.

    A man in Kiev, Ukraine wanted to be a modern day Daniel. He went to the zoo in Kiev earlier this month and lowered himself by a rope into a den of lions.

    based on 56 ratings
     | 37,260 views

    You need to move from: 1. Pragmatism to passion. 2. Being fractured to being focused. 3. Wandering to living life on purpose.

    Men are notorious for being distracted. Most of us could qualify for having ADD — Attention Deficit Disorder. In fact, I heard about a guy who was so distracted over one thing and another that he had to have his wife tell him almost everything. One day his wife came into the room and said, ...read more

    The beliefs we must commit ourselves to when facing suffering are: 1. God is good, even when life is bad. 2. God can redeem the evil that comes into our lives. 3. We must do the right thing, even when it does not seem to pay off.

    Those of you who have seen the classic movie Fiddler on the Roof remember the scene where Tevye, the main character, is walking on a dusty road, pulling both a milk cart and a lame horse. He says: “Ah, dear God, was that necessary? Did you have to make him lame just before the Sabbath? That ...read more

    1. The world belongs to God. 2. All we have belongs to God. 3. Our lives belong to God.

    It is said that Bishop Edwin Hughes once delivered a sermon on “God’s Ownership” of all that we have. In his congregation there was a very wealthy parishioner who took offense at his message.

    based on 83 ratings
     | 34,705 views

    1. Christmas informs the culture. 2. Christmas transforms the culture. 3. Christmas forms a new culture.

    Christmas is about God breaking through at surprising times, and showing up in unusual places in the world. You never know when, where, or how God is going to show up. The Bible is full of stories of how God broke into the world at the very time that people thought he was nowhere to be found. ...read more

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Apr 15, 2006
    based on 49 ratings
     | 19,665 views

    What if there is no resurrection? It means death has won and there is no life. It means darkness reigns and there is no hope. But Christ has been raised, therefore now we have God’s gift of life and hope.

    [I’ve taken some points in this sermon from Rodney Buchanan’s sermon ‘Jesus, the Living Savior’ at SermonCentral.] BUDDHA’S FINGERS In 1981 there was a devastating flood in central China. During the flood an ancient pagoda collapsed at Famen Temple. A few years later, archaeologists were ...read more

    The Homecoming

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Sep 1, 2002
    based on 109 ratings
     | 33,881 views

    It is interesting to try and identify with the three characters in the story: 1. The prodigal. 2. The older son. 3. The father.

    I realize that I have recently preached on this passage of scripture, but I feel compelled to speak on it again. The reason is that while on vacation I picked up Henri Nouwen’s excellent book entitled: The Return of the Prodigal Son: A Story of Homecoming. It is one of those books that pulls you ...read more

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Jun 4, 2001
    based on 104 ratings
     | 14,521 views

    Healing the relationships in our homes involves 1. Honest confession. 2. A willingness to stop the things that hurt the other person. 3. Opening our hearts to them once again and allowing them to come in.

    In the Scripture reading this morning, we find one of the most dysfunctional families in the Bible. The irony is that it is a family led by one of the most godly men in the Old Testament — King David. David is described as a man after God’s own heart (1 Samuel 13:14), and he was. But he was ...read more
