    According to Scripture the “ego control mechanism” is the Word of God – the Bible. Uncontrolled egos have a way of slipping out in our speech. This message looks at 3 “slips of the tongue” regarding our ego.

    WE ALL GOT ONE – IS YOURS TOO BIG? Romans 12:3 Romans 12:3 For by the grace given me I say to every one of you: Do not think of yourself more highly than you ought, but rather think of yourself with sober judgment, in accordance with the measure of faith God has given you.

    This sermon looks at four ways a church can know it’s moving in the right direction.

    A man stands before judge and jury, places one hand on the Bible and the other in the air, and makes a pledge. For the next few minutes, with God as his helper, he will “tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.” He is a witness, His job is not to expand upon nor dilute the ...read more

    What is the secret to real Christian living? Not how much you know; great leadership ability; personal charisma; or even a winning, positive attitude. The real key to Christian living is summed up in 2 words: FOLLOW ME.

    CASUAL FAITH OR COMMITTED FAITH? Mark 8:34, If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself & take up his cross & follow me. Intro: I saw a cartoon that showed a church building with a billboard in front that said: "The LITE CHURCH: 24% fewer commitments, home of the 71/2% tithe, 15 ...read more

    The Salvation Of The Soul

    I believe by and large Christians don’t have total understanding of what it means for our soul to prosper. Many people say the spirit and the soul are the same thing, however the Word of God differentiates them...

    -- American Standard 3 John 1:2 Beloved, I pray that in all things thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. -- Darby’s Bible 3 John 1:2 Beloved, I desire that in all things thou shouldest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospers.

    The Spirit Of The Disciplines I

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jan 27, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,005 views

    Conversion does not mean arrival. It signals the beginning of a journey of growth. We are to be like Christ, and this growth requires disciplines.

    [Most of the thoughts in this sermon come from Dallas Willard’s book The Spirit of the Disciplines.] Eph 4:12 “…to prepare God’s people for works of service, so that the body of Christ may be built up.” Matt 28:19-20 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name ...read more

    Church Growth

    This is a teaching about how to grow a church. It is not based purely on personal experience and not based on others’ successful stories but based on a friend’s personal experience in growing a church with biblical principles and causes it to be still gro

    Church Growth Church Growth is a very popular topic that even non-Christians heard of this term before. In the past, people looked to the west for examples of growing a church. Recently however, people shifted to the east as well for examples of church growth. In church growth, we should not copy ...read more

    What does it Take to Follow Christ?

    Many Christians are only “Christaholics” and not disciples at all. • Disciples are cross-bearers; they seek Christ. o Christaholics seek happiness. • Disciples dare to discipline themselves, and the demands they place on themselves leave them enjoying the happiness of their growth. o Christaholics ...read more

    Walking Headlong Into Trouble Series

    What do you do when you know trouble is coming? Do you run the other way as fast as you can? Paul didn’t and his example helps us when we face difficulty or when those close to us face trials.

    Did trouble take Paul by surprise? It shouldn’t have. Back in Acts 9, right at his conversion, Jesus made it clear to then Saul what his future would be like. He told Ananias, who was sent to pray for Saul, “Go, for he is a chosen instrument of mine to carry my name before the Gentiles and kings ...read more

    Pressing On Series

    This is a narrative style sermon intended to bring out the spirit of the passage and give drama and encouragement to listeners to keep "Pressing On" in their walk, or run, of faith.

    KEEP PRESSING ON My first love in preaching is to teach a verse by verse exegesis of the passage. Sometimes the passage is so familiar to the congregation that a different approach is needed to accentuate the truths. To make the passage real for people who are listening and wanting to engage it ...read more
