Hidden Gold

Contributed by Stephen Aram on Feb 19, 2022

This sermon follows a short skit describing the reality TV show, American Pickers. They scanned junk and found value in it. Jesus did the same when he found Matthew, the hated tax collector.

Jesus was a picker. He travelled the back roads of Israel looking for rusty gold. He saw amazing things buried in people's hearts. What most people saw as junk, he saw as disciples who could change the world. Each person had a history all his or her own. There was no such thing as a nobody ...read more

Changing Your Mind Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 27, 2021

Mark tells us that the very first message that Jesus preached was that the kingdom of God was near and, therefore, people are to repent and believe the good news. This was the same message that John the Baptist had been preaching.

A mother calling to her son shouted, "Johnny, tell your sister to get in the house out of the rain." "I can't mom," came the reply. "And just why can't you?" demanded his mother. "Because we are playing Noah's Ark mom, and she's one of the ...read more

Miracle Of The Method Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Dec 17, 2018

Baby Jesus in the manger looks so small. Yet this same moment is a miracle of salvation where absolute supremacy, authority, power, and the fullness of creation is embodied in this baby. We do not follow a small Jesus.

Two Masters Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Jul 31, 2022

No one can serve two masters, particularly those whose orders are directly contrary to one another: otherwise, if they were the same or both agreed, both might be served, but this is rarely the case and seldom done.

Sermon on the Mount - Matthew 6:24 (Two Masters) 24 "No one can serve two masters. Either you will hate the one and love the other, or you will be devoted to the one and despise the other.

The Overlooked Question Of Jesus

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Nov 4, 2022

Belief in God is fading from all parts of society. The idea of faith is all but ignored. Jesus told us it would be this way before He returns. Is your faith in the Lord in the same shape as the world?

" Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will He find faith on the earth?" (Luke 18:8, NASB). This question should be a clear signal for anyone with "eyes to see" that any idea of some last minute "national revival", which many well-meaning brethren would like ...read more
