Jesus, The One You Must Not Ignore

Contributed by Michael Karpf on Mar 23, 2008

Because God raised and exalted Jesus and gave Him the name above all names, we must all bow before Him and confess Him as our Lord.

I have introduced this phrase to some of my English classes this past week. I would like for us to say it. I’ll say “He is risen,” and you say “He is risen indeed.” Let’s try it. He is risen He is risen indeed. Because that is what we are celebrating today, Jesus is risen from the dead. I don’t ...read more

What To Put On! Series

Contributed by Dan Campbell on May 7, 2007

When a person believes and confesses Jesus as savior and Lord, they are born again, and a transformation takes place in their basic nature. The change is more radical that the change that takes place at death.

WHAT TO PUT ON! Ephesians 4:17-32 So I tell you this, and insist on it in the Lord, that you must no longer live as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their thinking. They are darkened in their understanding and separated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them due to ...read more

Contributed by Ed Wood on Jun 6, 2007

The early church wanted to share God’s love, spread the good news, and reach persons for Christ. It is the spirit needed by all of us who confess Christ as Lord.

The New Life Series

Contributed by Steven Simala Grant on Mar 19, 2013

The result of our confession of sin and God cleansing us from our sin is to proclaim his righteousness through teaching others and worshiping him through our brokenness.

The Psalm that we have been studying during this Lenten season has taken us deep into our hearts, confronted us with the reality of our sin, and given us incredibly beautiful words with which to pray for forgiveness and cleansing. Last week we concentrated on the verses where we pray, ...read more

Cleaning Services

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 18, 2023

We have been forgiven in Christ for the sins that we have committed and confessed. But the underlying condition out of which these sins arise - what’s to be done about that?

“Out, damned spot!” may be one of the most widely recognized lines Shakespeare ever wrote. I wonder why? In a more innocent age it might have been for the forbidden thrill of saying “damn.” But of course that doesn’t apply any more, does it. It’s one of the milder epithets available. If that’s the ...read more

The Call Of Jesus Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Jun 16, 2025

While Jesus announces for the first time to his disciples his call to the cross, He calls us to confess who he is and calls us to live a crucified life.

I would guess that we are probably similar in that we get so many unwanted calls each day. Somehow, I’ve been getting calls for some group who says they can get me on Social Security Disability. Other times I’ve been on the list for VA loans - except I’m not a veteran. I’ve received calls for ...read more

Time Heals All Wounds And Other Lies We Beleive About Conflict Series

Contributed by Paul Barreca on Sep 2, 2012

This sermon focuses on the broken relationship of Jacob and Esau. We will learn that broken relationships must be healed through confession and forgiveness in a way that honors both TRUTH in judgement and GRACE in forgiveness.

We’ve been told that Time heals all wounds. Our unwillingness to confront sin, or talk about broken relationships confirms that at least some of the time, we follow this advice. But as we know, time does not heal all wounds. Come with me to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher in Jerusalem. Roman ...read more
