    The Surrendered Life

    Contributed by Jimmy Giffin on May 4, 2004
    based on 97 ratings
     | 20,660 views

    The Surrendered Life is what God requires. Anything else falls short. If we expect victory we must surrender.

    THE SURRENDERED LIFE Text: Galatians 2 : 20 The word surrender conjures up many pictures. We think of Japan’s surrender at the end of WW II. Maybe we picture the celebrations in Times Square. To some it may be the image of Saddam Hussein and his spider-hole. And to others just a simple wrestling ...read more

    This is a short sermon preached after our Kids Pageant asking the question: which part would you play in the pageant?

    (This was a short message preached at the end of our children’s Christmas pageant.) For many people Christmas isn’t here until they’ve seen the Kid’s Christmas Pageant. There’s something about the innocence of Children that makes the story come alive and we saw that this morning. I that what ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,354 views

    A fairly short sermon asking the congregation to pray for parents, to praise God for Jesus, to be open to prophesy, to be regular in prayer and to be patient.

    Luke 2: 22 to 40 This is such a lovely all-age event in the life of Jesus. We’ve got a baby (Jesus 2:21), parents (Mary and Joseph 2:22), a man of faith (Simeon 2:25), and a very prayerful and faithful widow (Anna 2:36). The whole event is a reminder to us that children are a gift from God. I was ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,326 views

    A short talk encouraging people to listen to Jesus - to ditch our daydreaming, to deal with any disinterest, and to discontinue any disobedience.

    I remember it well. It was a maths lesson. I’d been chatting to my friends on either side of me, and I’d also had a good hard stare out of the classroom window. I wasn’t being badly disruptive but with hindsight I was certainly flitting between daydreaming, disinterest and ...read more

    Precious In The Sight Of God

    Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Mar 9, 2009
    based on 21 ratings
     | 15,202 views

    A short lesson on the importance of a Christian woman to have the imperishable quality of a gentle and quiet spirit, which is precious in the sight of God.

    Today, I want us to consider something “precious in the sight of God.” God created the Universe. All things belong to Him. He sees all things before Him. Interesting to me is that as God sees all things, the Bible reveals that there is something that is “precious in the sight of God.” The meaning ...read more

    This is a short devotional about spending time with the Lord. Jesus was a GUEST WHO NEEDED INVITING, but He is A GUEST WORTH INVITING.
