    [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

    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

    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...

    Pressing On Series

    Contributed by Darryl Klassen on Jan 21, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,018 views

    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

    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

    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
