    Christmas Is For Purity Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 15, 2021
     | 1,922 views

    Purity is to be prized by categorically every one of God’s children. The last text I read puts it in stark terms: If you don’t prize purity, then you’re not a child of God.

    In a California neighborhood in 2009 one resident decorated his lawn with a depiction of Jesus shooting Santa Claus with a double-barrel shotgun. Fox News had reported that Jesus points the weapon at Santa’s dead body while Rudolph lays sprawled across the hood of a pick-up truck. The creator, Ron ...read more

    Disgusted Or Delighted? Series

    Contributed by David Dykes on Jan 28, 2018
     | 12,043 views

    A stark contrast between religious hypocrites and a faithful woman. The religious show-offs were mostly interested in what they could GET out of life. And the poor widow as interested in all she could GIVE.

    INTRODUCTION My younger brother, Dan, and I are a lot alike. He serves as a Minister of Education and Senior Adults at a church in Conway, Arkansas. One thing we have in common is that we both have a sense of humor leaning toward puns and groaners. You’ve endured plenty of my groaners through the ...read more

    Murder Mystery Series

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Nov 24, 2022
     | 1,040 views

    Anger is the impulse to strike out - either with words or with actions - at whatever threatens us, or threatens something we value. Anger is an impulse to destruction. Anger is in stark contrast to the commandment to love, which brings life.

    Have you ever caught yourself looking at your reflection in a shop window? I have to confess that I sometimes do. I'll wager there's not one person in this room who doesn't take at least one good look at him or herself in the mirror every day. Maybe you don't care much. But you ...read more

     | 4,689 views

    This world is constantly seeking and searching for PEACE, but the cold stark reality is that until they submit to REAL TRUTH, there cannot be any TRUE PEACE. Paul understood this and laid out a template for discovering and experiencing the TRUE PEACE God

    The Hidden World Of Service

    Contributed by Michael Trask on Sep 25, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,148 views

    The contrast couldn’t be more stark. Jesus describes his ultimate act of service while the disciples argue over which of them will be the greatest! This sermon stealthily plunges the listener into this contrast; then pulls them out on the right side.

    My dear friends in Christ, I want to tell you about something that I didn’t really begin to figure out until I was about 24. Many of you figured it out long before you reached that age; some of you have not figured it out yet. But when someone finally does learn it, and it begins to sink ...read more

    The Walk Of The Believer In Jesus (Part 1) Series

    Contributed by Dr. Bradford Reaves on May 20, 2022
     | 1,526 views

    There is a stark difference between the Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of this world. It can be difficult to understand the distinctions for someone new to the faith. We must remember that this world is not our home and the Kingdom of our Lord Jesus is substantially different from the world.

     | 3,509 views

    There was another unconventional birth 2000 years ago. In stark contrast to the intensely glittered and gold portrayal through which many of us look at Christmas today, Jesus ended up being born in a cave that served as a stable because there was no room

    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,568 views

    This rich man stands in stark contrast with the many whose lives were changed through their encounter with Jesus. From Andrew to Zacchaeus, men and women shared in the joy Jesus offered them through a renewed relationship with God. That joy is for those

    The Camel the eye and the faith to get through A Sermon for the 22nd Sunday of Pentecost Luke 18.18-30 This story of the joylessly religious rich man is a setting for the most memorable of images - that of the camel trying to get through the eye of a needle.

    One day, mankind will face the stark reality of eternity. Today, every man and woman is faced with the decision of a lifetime: choose life by the blood of Jesus Christ, or let the pride, the sin, and all the mistakes, which stand between us and God separ

     | 5,673 views

    For years following Jesus the disciples seemed to be in a cloud, but now they finally get it, but only when Jesus unlocks God's plan in their minds. Terrified, marveling, shocked, and in stark disbelief we too are like the disciples until God get ahold of

    36As they were talking about these things, Jesus himself stood among them, and said to them, "Peace to you!" 37But they were startled and frightened and thought they saw a spirit. 38And He said to them, "Why are you troubled, and why do doubts arise in your hearts? 39See My hands and My feet, that ...read more

    Collapse, Deception And Marching Orders

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,723 views

    In this passage Jesus shares with us some rather stark realities that mankind is at best Castle builders. That human saviors are only deceivers. That is the bad news. The GOOD NEWS is that God is King, Jesus is Savior and the Holy Spirit will lead us to everlasting salvation.
