    Jesus Walks On The Water Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Jun 24, 2023
     | 1,776 views

    What’s the deeper message here for us today? It’s the gospel hidden in plain sight. I’ve noticed in the events of Jesus ministry we find the gospel again and again hidden in symbolic images.

    Growing up in Wisconsin we would go “up north” twice a year at least, to a town called Minocqua. And we would spend hours boating, we would travel something they called up there the “chain of lakes.” We’d take my dads boat from lake Minocqua down through these thin passages, to lake Tomahawk, and ...read more

    Small In Stature, Not In Nature

    This message looks at the account of a very short man named Zacchaeus. Though he was small in stature, he was by no means small in nature, for he demonstrated a character that many of us need to have in our own lives.

    This morning we are going to look at the story of a very short man named Zacchaeus. Most of us have probably at least heard of Zacchaeus before because of a popular childhood song that we learned in church, either in Sunday school or Vacation Bible School. The lyrics of the song start something ...read more

    Four "small" things that kill the body of Christ.

    Finding Purpose In The Potters Hands Series

    Contributed by Rich Dunbar on Mar 21, 2005
    based on 25 ratings
     | 4,278 views

    This sermon utilizes five questions from a short video clip from sermonspice.com called "Potter’s Hand". The answers to those questions are found in the passage.

    Within the seemingly mundane conversation in this passage, I believe we can find the answers to some of life’s most profound questions. 1. Who am I? IF I am… A man made in the image of God – Gen 1:26 A sinner in which that image is flawed – Rom 3:23 THEN… I am not worthy of worship, only God is. ...read more

    Narnia: Aslan Changes Narnia; Jesus Changes Us!

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Oct 31, 2005
    based on 15 ratings
     | 2,670 views

    A short evangelistic sermon. For many people life is cold and dreary, ’always winter’. The good news is that just as Aslan changed Narnia, so Jesus will change you!

    A NOTE ABOUT THE CONTEXT: This was originally preached on 31 October 2005 at our ’Light Party’. We had bouncy castles, face painting, live worship on a stage, plus a short evangelistic preach followed by fireworks to finish. The event was/is designed to take young people away from ’trick or ...read more

    Apologist Or Advocate…christian Education

    Contributed by Ernest Corty on Aug 30, 2005
    based on 25 ratings
     | 9,540 views

    Establishing advocacy for Christian Education is not only needed in Post-Modern Christianity but required by the Word of God. To be an apologist for Christian Education falls short of God’s mandate.

    Apologist or Advocate…Christian Education Written by Ernest W. Corty Inspired by Dr. Alan Pure, President of “The Barnabas Group” We have a powerful story that we don’t tell today. The story could be rooted in the truth that our Christian Colleges and Seminaries offer courses in Systematic ...read more

     | 7,361 views

    A sermon calling the church to focus on building God’s kingdom rather than focus on our comfort. This was given after a short message from a Gideon speaker.

    Back in the first part of the last century, Cumberland College of Kentucky was playing football with a rival, and they were totally out of their league. They were losing miserably because the opposing team was bigger, stronger, and more intimidating than they were. One of their players fumbled ...read more

    Anything short of God’s allowance of time on this planet is not abundant living. She was only 32-years-old. How do we embrace losing her?

    Rest in Peace Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to honor the memory and to pay our final respects to the passing of a darling daughter, a stunning sister, and faithful friend. It is again in this our own lives where we are again reminded of the reality of living. That reality always ...read more

    A short sermon for a morning service on All Saints’ Day, encouraging people to know that Jesus shares in our grief, and promises life for all believers for all eternity!

    A Catholic priest was driving a devout but simple member of his congregation along a country road in Ireland one day when he accidentally ran over a hare. He stopped the car, and the two men got out and walked over to where the animal was lying. It wasn’t moving, and looked to be dead. But then the ...read more

     | 7,838 views

    A short talk given at a Maundy Thursday Communion Service, focusing on the ’Hillel Sandwich’ Jesus gave to the guest of honour at Passover - Judas Iscariot! Such love, shown by Jesus!

    Two weeks ago we had a visit here at Christ Church from 40 children who attend St. John’s School in Billericay, plus 3 of their teachers. We were walking – or should I say talking and eating – our way through the Passover meal and asking ourselves this question: “How and why would Jesus have ...read more

    This is a very short homily given at a residential care home for the elderly some of whom feel forgotten and many of whom are lonely. Jesus is good news for ALL people!

    [This is a very short homily given at a residential care home for the elderly, some of whom feel forgotten and many of whom are lonely.] Luke 2:8 to 20 (Luke 2:9) An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified.

    A short message for any time of the year (but would be useful as a new year message) that draws the attention of believers to their responsibility to demonstrate the message of Christ in their local church.

    Unity and Purpose. I feel drawn this morning to give a short message on Unity and Purpose in the Church of Jesus Christ. When thinking about this topic it prompted me to think about the word “Unity” and ask myself what it means. The dictionary defines unity as Concord; harmony; ...read more
