Plugging Into The Power Of God

Contributed by Charles Jones on Feb 24, 2018

We need to plug into the Power of Prayer, the Power of Passion and the Power of Proclamation. Doing that will allow us to shake our world for Jesus!

PLUGGING INTO THE POWER OF GOD Acts 4:31-33 As Peter and John passed through the Gate Beautiful on their way to the Temple, they saw a man who sat there daily to beg alms. Peter told the man, "Look on us." The beggar looked up, expecting to receive some coins. Peter said, ". . . Silver and gold ...read more

Fellowship: Not An Institution

Contributed by Dr. Madana Kumar, Phd on Feb 26, 2018

Our tendency to institutionalize everything has crept into the church as well. With this the idea of limited liability has also crept into the Church. But Jesus' message is not of limited liability.

We are meditating on the topic of Fellowship this month. All of you know that we are called the Bangalore Bible Fellowship. How many of us know what we stand for, what BBF stands for?

Lesson 2: Preach A Text Series

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Feb 27, 2018

The Bible is the most important basis of preaching. How do we preach a text of Holy Scripture?

Inside Out: Worry Series

Contributed by Lynn Malone on Jan 28, 2016

Fear is a healthy emotion. Fear can protect us…often from ourselves, but an unguarded fear only causes us anxiety, or worry. Worry is incredibly unhealthy. This message focuses on overcoming worry.

Fear is one of the characters personified in the mind of Riley Anderson in the film Inside Out. Fear is portrayed as a tall, lanky, lavender skinned character with a long nose and a penchant for wearing magenta bow ties and purple slacks. He is at one and the same time, fearful, nervous, timid, ...read more

Mission: Possible--The Call Series

Contributed by Lynn Malone on Feb 16, 2016

Christ called disciples to a mission in the world. The call is distinctive, costly and transforming. This sermon touches on who Christ calls, the cost involved and the priority of the mission.

We begin this message series and have made the focus of this Lenten season Mission: ...read more

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Feb 16, 2016

As disciples we are called to love one another, that is a command that is easier to say than actually do, for us to live in a way that the love of God is fully demonstrated requires real effort in our daily lives.

Disciples who Love Straight to the question: If you could only use one word to describe God what word would you choose? Would it be Almighty? Omnipotent? Creator? It’s Valentines Day and the word I am looking for is Love! The bible tells us simply and clearly that “God is ...read more
