    Jacob had his Jabbok, Abraham had his Mt. Moriah, Paul had his Damascus road and Peter had his encounter with Jesus on the Sea of Galilee's shores. That's where Peter began a new life living solely for Christ.

  • The Rightness Of Divine Self-Promotion Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Nov 1, 2021
     | 3,779 views

    While it is wrong and inappropriate for us to make it all about us and to devote our lives to self-promotion, it is altogether right and good to make it all about God and for God to be engaged in divine self-promotion.

    A. One day a little boy was overheard talking to himself as he strutted on to the baseball diamond wearing his baseball cap and toting a ball and bat, “I’m the greatest hitter in the world,” he announced. 1. Then, he tossed the ball into the air, swung at it, and missed. 2. “Strike One!” he ...read more

  • The Night Of Self-Imposed Misery

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Oct 4, 2023
     | 947 views

    One of the first stories we learn as children is the story of Jonah and the Big Fish. But the story about Jonah that we remember is seldom the whole story.

    JONAH’S NIGHT OF SELF-IMPOSED MISERY But the Lord said, “You have been concerned about this plant, though you did not tend it or make it grow. It sprang up overnight and died overnight. And should I not have concern for the great city of Nineveh, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty ...read more

  • 3 Putting On The New Self Series

    Contributed by Stephen Aram on Oct 25, 2019
     | 4,714 views

    All our lives people tell us who we are, whether out loud by their words, or silently by the way they treat us. A distorted self image leads to a distorted life. Jesus says we are children of God. Put that image on every morning as you start your day.

    Every morning we face the world with this momentous decision. “What am I going to wear today?” If you are doing something important in your job you might put on your very best, just that combination that says I am confident, but not too pushy. Something creative, but not weird. Something ...read more

  • Be Wise About Self-Control Series

    Contributed by David Owens on May 13, 2024
     | 1,430 views

    Proverbs has a lot to say about self-control as it relates to a number of things. But one of the most important areas we need to learn to exercise control is in the area of anger. Anger will destroy us without proper self-control.

    A. I was recently reminded about an old story about Billy Martin and Mickey Mantle that I think is a good launching point for today’s sermon. 1. The story goes like this: One day Mickey Mantle took his friend and teammate, Billy Martin, with him to hunt on another friend’s ranch. 2. When they ...read more

  • How To Keep Your Vision Alive

    Contributed by Benjamin Suulola on Mar 13, 2023
     | 3,568 views

    It takes a God-like vision to make positive difference, bring transformation and to impact our generation for the Lord. But having a God-given vision is not important as being able to keep the vision alive.

    Vision is simply the ability to see what God is doing and the role apportioned to you in bringing it to reality. Your God-given vision is one of the most important reasons for your living. When there is no vision of God to be accomplished with one's life, the purpose of living becomes ...read more

  • Ignorant By Choice Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jul 25, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,863 views

    Ignorant Christians do not generally have an intellectual problem, they have a spiritual problem. Let’s evaluate ourselves in light of three questions suggested by the text of Hosea.

    Ignorant By Choice (from selected verses in Hosea 4-5) 1. What a great two weeks we had in Camp! It is worth all the effort we put into it. 2. But while our kids were enjoying camp, over in Norway, 92 youth we gunned down at a Labor Party youth camp. What a horrid crime. 3. This week, gay couples ...read more

  • No Fear Series

    Contributed by Paul Wallace on Oct 28, 2008
     | 9,562 views

    Where there is no fear of Lord, there is no restraint from doing evil.

    NO FEAR (of God) Genesis 20:11 “No fear”. It’s on clothing, it’s in commercials. But having no fear is stupid. Little children with no fear of heights can get hurt badly. Having no fear of boiling water on a stove leads to burns. Having no fear of getting hurt leads to reckless driving. It may ...read more

    Has this ever happened to you? You find a bowl full of delicious looking cherries sitting on the table. They’re clearly meant for eating so you grab a couple.

  • The Essence Of Your Strength ~ Self Control Series

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Nov 19, 2008
    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,302 views

    I guess of all the nine fruits of the Spirit, “self-control” is the one with which we might feel the greatest sense of unease. Self-control is allowing God to be in control of your will and heart and seeking the Spirit to enable us. Then we will know what

    Opening illustration: Some years ago the press had reported that the president of a Midwestern theological seminary was fired after the Board of Directors determined that his temper had imperiled his leadership.
