    The First commandment calls us to trust in God, not in ourselves

    Message Matthew 19:16-22 Avoiding Spiritual Arrogance (Put up the picture of a set of scales) This is how many people believe God should work. It is all about the balance.

    Jesus continues the teaching of the Third Commandment by demonstrating that God's name and integrity is to be upheld, and we are to take the issue of swearing and blasphemy seriously by controlling our language.

    Lessons In The Temptation Of Christ

    Contributed by Christopher Beard on Mar 4, 2014
    based on 1 rating
     | 10,138 views

    A study of the temptation of Jesus Christ, and lessons in perseverance that we can apply in our daily Christian walks.

    I’ll admit it. I was this close to titling this article “The Temptation of Jesus, and Why We’re All Wussies”. Luckily, cordiality and meekness won out, and so we have been left with the current title of this piece. Still, the main point stands. In comparison to Christ, we ...read more

    The Watergate Revival Series

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Oct 7, 2014
    based on 3 ratings
     | 11,302 views

    There is an unspoken desire in the body of Christ today to understand what revival is all about even though we may have never experienced it corporately. Israel was in a similar state in the 500's BC. In fact they did not have access to the Word of God ..

    Opening illustration: What would you hear if you could listen to the sounds at your neighbor’s house on Sunday morning? Would it be the sound of boats being prepared for a day of fishing at the lake? Would it be the sound of golf clubs being thrown into the trunk of the car in anticipation of ...read more

    One Thing

     | 9,277 views

    It’s interesting to try to narrow things down to one. When you do that you are identifying the most significant thing. We see this principle applied in scripture. Let’s look at some of these incidents and see what we can learn from them.

    ONE THING If you could have only one thing in the world what would it be? If you could only go one place where would you go? What about if there was only one thing standing in the way of you accomplishing something. It’s interesting to try to narrow things down to one. When you do that you ...read more

     | 9,427 views

    A sermon about being what Jesus calls us to be.

    "Salt and Light" Matthew 5:13-16 I often don't feel like "salt" and "light." I can be pretty self-centered. I often say things I shouldn't say and do things I shouldn't do. I'm not always nice. And I would imagine that Jesus' first disciples probably felt pretty much the same ...read more
