    What Are We Going To Do

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Apr 23, 2015
     | 7,432 views

    We need to be more like the disciple Andrew, who, while he didn't write any of the books in the Bible, led people to Jesus - people like Simon Peter and the boy in the parable of the loaves and fish. Following Jesus is the source of our power to change.

    An honest man was being tailgated by a stressed-out woman on a busy boulevard. Suddenly, the traffic light turned yellow just in front of him. The man did the right thing stopping at the crosswalk even though he could have beaten the red light by accelerating through the intersection. The ...read more

    So, You Think You're Not A Pharisee?

    Contributed by Dan Funk on Aug 28, 2014
     | 5,121 views

    Christ directed the Parable of the Pharisee and the Publican Praying in the Temple to those who trusted in their own righteousness. We are more prone to trust in our own righteousness than we might think. This self-trust can keep us from being merciful.

    Over the years, we have all heard preachers address the parable of the Pharisee and the Publican praying in the Temple. “The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. I fast ...read more

     | 10,711 views

    Here God talks about: 1. Our placement in the Body of Christ (vs. 12-13). 2. Our profit to the Body of Christ (vs. 14-23). 3. Our purpose in the Body of Christ (vs. 15-26).

    The Greatness of God’s Body, the Church 1 Corinthians 12:12-27 Sermon by Rick Crandall Grayson Baptist Church - July 15, 2012 *How do you feel about your body? -Denn Guptill says: “Most of us would rather not think about our bodies, and if we do we probably don’t think very complementary things. ...read more

    Knowledge Of Ourselves.

    Contributed by Roy Fowler on Jan 31, 2015
     | 4,484 views

    Understanding yourself as you move to a more understanding of who God is. Freedom without love can cause weaker Christians to fall.

    To understand the Scripture we have to understand what was going on within it. In those days the pagan religions sacrificed to their gods similar to what the Jews did. After the religious ceremony was over they would sell the meat to local food establishments. They would then sell it to ...read more

     | 12,354 views

    After Jesus' High Priestly prayer, Jesus meets His Betrayer and His accusers in the Garden of Gethsemane and is arrested. There are similarities and contrasts in the Garden with an event in history concerning King David.

    “The Arrest of Jesus the Nazarene” John 18:1-12 We have examined John 13-17 recently which is considered to be Jesus’ “Farewell Discourse”, occurring on the night which Jesus was arrested. Today we study John 18:1-4 with the arrest of Jesus: “When Jesus had ...read more

     | 15,318 views

    I AM is a complete statement when made by God, but how about us? What do we add to that statement when describing ourselves? Is it accurate? Is it honest?

    Exodus 3:13-14 (Exodus 3:13-14 NASB) "13 Then Moses said to God, "Behold, I am going to the sons of Israel, and I will say to them, 'The God of your fathers has sent me to you.'

    Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Jun 11, 2014
     | 5,086 views

    Jesus confronted the Pharisee’s with straight talk to get them to change their ways. He wanted them to see the error in their thinking, behavior and change. He wanted them to see their legalistic – non grace attitude which was driving them away from Heaven and not toward Heaven.

    Video from sermon central: Shoes and Judging Theme: Let’s Talk Series 3: Straight Talk What is it? Straight talk from a redneck: 1. Darlin. You’re hotter than donut grease at a fat man convention. 2. Duct tape is like "The Force." It has a light side, a dark side, and it holds the ...read more

    Christians, we are living together as the body of Christ. This means: 1. We find our worth together (vs. 14-22) 2. We work together (vs. 23-25) 3. We are wounded together (vs. 26) 4. We win together (vs. 26-27)

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,071 views

    Restoration is a vital aspect of our Christian walk. Galatians 6:1 challenges us to approach others with love, humility, and gentleness. Restoration is not about judgment or superiority; it’s about reflecting God’s grace.

    Fifth Sunday Of Lent, Year B--I Tried But It Died: Grain Of Wheat

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Feb 15, 2024
     | 1,372 views

    A Christian is obliged to let go, to put himself into hands that are not his own of letting oneself go into the hands of God.

    Wheat is associated with being sewn in the ground, buried, geminating and then springing up for bread to feed multitudes. These are all symbols of Christ’s passion, death, resurrection, and communion with his Body, the Church with Jesus, saved in his Sacrifice at Calvary. The seed has to be buried ...read more

     | 620 views

    The Herods of the Bible provide us with powerful lessons on the dangers of pride, selfish ambition, and rejecting God’s will. Their lives serve as stark warnings about the cost of rebellion against God and the importance of humility, integrity, and obedience in leadership.

     | 802 views

    The disciples were whipsawed into reality, that Christ was risen from death.

    Easter Tuesday One of the realities of life is that our little minds are quite capable of self-delusion, and on a grand scale. Most of the time we fool ourselves into thinking we understand what is going on around us–way more than we actually do understand. We kid ourselves that we are in ...read more
