    based on 4 ratings

    How we use our time reveals the priority God has in our lives. We should be careful to always seek first the will of God.

    Don’t Be Foolish – Ephesians 5: 15 - 20 Intro: I’m not real fond of country music. Perhaps it’s because my dad and his brothers had a country band that practiced at our house --- The one thing I do like about country music are the titles for the songs.

    What Does It Mean To Be "In Christ"?

    Contributed by Bruce Willis on Dec 21, 2006
    based on 10 ratings
     | 3,969 views

    This sermon seeks to contrast the difference in the persons life who is "in Christ" as opposed to one who is "in Adam" from the perspective of The Exchanged Life.

    In those four verses what phrase is referred to three times? It’s the phrase “in Christ” or “in Him” meaning Christ. So my question and the subject of this sermon is: “What does it mean to be in Christ?” For a couple of weeks now, I’ve talked about what it means to be “in Adam.” In fact, 1 ...read more

    The Hope Of Revival

    Contributed by Bruce Willis on Jan 1, 2007
    based on 14 ratings
     | 6,052 views

    This sermon seeks to communicate the truth of how revival can become a reality for the person who realizes that hope rests inside of you through Christ.

    My question today is, “What is the hope of revival?” In all honesty the answer is, it’s a mystery. It’s a mystery in the biblical sense of that word. I believe the hope of revival is in the mystery that has now been made known verses 26-27, “the mystery that has been kept hidden for ages and ...read more

    2nd in the series "Love Notes: A Letter from John." About living a life of love and holiness and seeking forgiveness when you fail.

    President Calvin Coolidge went to church, and afterwards was asked by a friend what the minister spoke on. “He preached on sin.” The friend asked what the preacher had to say about sin, and was told, “He’s against it.”...

    Friendship With God

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Feb 6, 2006

     | 8,829 views

    Prayer is more than just asking God. It is communion between two friends. God seeks friendship with man, for He is an intensely personal God.

    The passage we’ve just read today is prayer – when a man meets God and talks to Him. It is, the Bible says, “as a man speaks with his friend” (v.11). We will not fully understand prayer if we think about it only as something to do with asking something from God. Prayer is not just about ...read more
