    Crash And Burn

    Contributed by Pat Cook on Jun 28, 2003
    based on 15 ratings
     | 2,772 views

    I looked at the Feb 2003 S.S.Columbia disaster for 2 thoughts: 1) where do we go when hard times hit and 2) what happens when Christians wipe out and give up in their faith?

    Psalm 46:1-3 – Crash and Burn Yesterday was a sad day for the world. It was not a tragedy to the same scale as September 11, 2001. In fact, even normal plane crashes take more lives than the disaster yesterday. Yet there is something very sad of the explosion of the Space Shuttle Columbia ...read more

    How To Keep An Eternal Perspective Series

     | 14,698 views

    Wouldn’t it be wonderful to go through life day by day with an eternal perspective? Have you ever known that kind of person? Their car breaks down and somehow the service man comes to know Christ. Why? They live with an eternal perspective.

    Read: Philippians 1:18-26 Think of a modern example of a person who keeps an eternal perspective. The person who comes to my mind is Jim Elliott. He was famous for saying, he is no fool to give up what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.” This flows from the heart of a man who had an ...read more

    The Christmas touch is the touch of God that includes touches of many kinds that will help us, and other, experience God¡¦s touch on our lives.

    As I began to write this morning’s message, I became very much aware of the fact that for the first time since Vietnam, we are at war during the Christmas season. I don’t remember having this same kind of awareness as a child and young teenager during that time although as I look out this morning I ...read more

    The peace of Christ will extend to all nations through the gospel.

    These days, we’re told, "the rules have changed." Politicians and news reporters are constantly telling us that, in the light of recent events, life, as we know will be altered forever.

    How is it that the guards at the tomb had first hand experience of the power of the resurrection, and yet, they chose not to believe?

    I was amused by a cartoon of two Roman soldiers guarding Jesus’ tomb on the first Easter morning. Each is holding a mug of tea in his hand, and the sun is just rising above the horizon. One is encouraging the other. "Cheer up, it’s Sunday morning. As I see it, we have one more day of guarding the ...read more

    Weed-Free Gardening-Guaranteed!

    Every time we try to use worldy influence or power or scheming to get God’s work done we end up doing more damage to his kingdom than if we’d just let the weeds grow until harvest time.

    Most of you are way too familiar with the problem of weeds. Even those of you who live in Covenant Village where the weeds are generally taken care of by the grounds crew can remember when you were children and you had to pull the weeds in the garden. I must have spent every Saturday morning ...read more

    This sermon describes some of the advantages we receive because of Jesus’ work on the cross.

    INTRODUCTION A. Many Christians live in ignorance of what God has done for us. B. Many are not interested in doctrinal matters but in only what they get out of a church. C. I appeal again to George Barna’s research of 1996 and 1997. 1. Many professing Christians believe that people are inherently ...read more
