    A close look at how our mind can run away with us, but we need to adopt the mind of Christ.

    1. THE MIND….(SLIDE ILLUSTRATION) So much goes on in our mind. Day to day management. Breathe in breathe out. Left leg right leg when walking. We don’t even think about it – shake hands. I mean one of the lines my mom used to ask me and it sticks in my head: What the hell were you thinking. I ...read more

    God is just as concerned for Wall Street ... and the "Wall Street" of every community ... as He is for the street that runs in front of the church.

    Imagine a father offering these words of advice to his new college graduate, who is seeking a job: I want you to know it's a jungle out there. College has been a cake-walk. From now on, you'll be in the real world. The language is money. And it talks loudly. The goal is to get as much as ...read more

    Internet pornographers target web sites and addresses that appear to be Christian. The enemy knows that porno is a HIGHLY addictive force in his arsenal of evil tricks. I had a bad experience with pornography myself, I am not proud to admit it, but if it will help another man get free from it ...read more

    How often do we think we can run God's schedule better than He can?

    It’s All in the Timing John 7:1-9 Introduction Last week, we saw a decisive shift in the ministry of Jesus. Most of his “followers” had left Him because of the harshness of His message. They had wanted the free handouts, but were not interested in the scandalous yoke of ...read more

    Jesus is the good shepherd and the owner not the hired servant who runs when the wolf attacks. You are as Jesus is.

     | 2,121 views

    In zeal, many run off to find the will of God when it was right where they were when He called them.

    1 Cor 7:24 Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God. When people get saved they often want to make changes in their life that are not necessary or God's will. In context, new converts were considering changes like being circumcised or uncircumcised. They wanted ...read more

     | 1,155 views

    Be sure God has not called you to stay where you are before you run off to be used of Him.

    Is it not odd that people who believe in the omnipresence of God seek somewhere they feel closer to Him. He not the God of the oceans, the mountains or the fields. He is the God of the universe so wherever you are He is there. If you are not hearing from Him it is not a location problem. It is ...read more

    Jesus died for my sins and yours.

    Intro. Why a sermon like this? Various critics over the centuries have declared God is dead. They are wrong, but we must never forget, there was a day that Deity Died.

    Maybe our churches aren’t overflowing because Christians make servanthood look painful.

    When I See A Runner Smile Introduction: When I was a freshman in High School my dad really wanted me to be involved in a sport.

    Where do you need the spiritual grace of self-control? Seek the Lord for direction, and let Him mold you into a Disciple that is controlled at all times and in all circumstances by the Holy Spirit.

    “. . . the fruit of the spirit is . . . self-control. . .” (Gal. 5:22-23) Not too long ago I watched the movie “Castaway” with Tom Hanks. He was stranded on this island after a plane crash in the ocean. He had nothing to eat at first but coconuts. He had to master the ...read more
