    This is a Sermon that was used to recognize upcoming Graduates but applies to all on how to live a sucsessful life.

    Take it Easy 2 Timothy 3:10-16 Many, many, years ago, I can remember my own graduation. I walked down that aisle and was handed a piece of paper, or a diploma as some call it, and as I was walking back to my seat, I was thinking, “Finally, now I can take it easy!” No more school; no more homework; ...read more

    Jesus is the "star" of Scripture and he is to be the star of our life. Is it he we are following or a star of our own making?

    “What’s in the stars for you?” Perhaps you remember seeing this huge front-page horoscope in the Edmonton Journal a few days ago. It may seem laughable to us that anyone would live his or her life by the “dictates of the stars” but the fact that the newspaper paid for the information and then gave ...read more

    ASH WEDNESDAY MESSAGE: We resist the "allness" of sin. David shows us that we must acknowledge it as our own, and that it has to do with our relationship to God, not just breaking rules. We have an even greater resource for our broken hearts than he had

    His words were uttered in a commanding tone. It was clear that he was displeased. And to his displeasure he added a twist, as he said to his young son, “I said shovel all the snow off all the walks. What part of ‘all’ do you not understand?” And if, as a twelve-year-old who had soon grown tired ...read more

     | 87,430 views

    The effect of our words can lead to a good outcome or to a disasterous one. We can learn to overcome negativity and change our self talk so that we receive a fruitful harvest.

    The Power of Words “Death and life are in the power of the tongue and they that love it shall eat the fruit thereof.” Proverbs 18:21 INTRODUCTION: "Sticks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me.” How many agree with that statement? How many disagree? How ...read more

    The Archeology Of Christmas Series

    Contributed by Dave Kinney on Dec 6, 2008
    based on 15 ratings
     | 7,403 views

    Archeology cannot form faith, but it can inform faith. Archeology brings forth the tangible remnants of history so that faith can have a reasonable context in which to develop.

    No doubt that Christmas has some incredible claims contained within the narratives found in the Bible! Claims that could make the skeptic or searcher scratch their head wondering is this an episode of the “Twilight Zone”? Maybe you have felt this way at times and maybe you still have some major ...read more

    Television show where three people would come out and try to convince the celebrity panel who the real person was. At the end they would say, “Would the real so and so stand up.” What did Jesus claim about himself? Who did Jesus say that he was? Over the season of Lent (with the exception of ...read more

    How To Find Satisfaction: Romans 12:1-8

    Contributed by James Lee on Dec 3, 2013
     | 5,365 views

    Adapted from a sermon by Brian Atwood. Even with their limitations, Rhinos live a pretty satisfied life. We don’t have to know the future. Who cares that we can see only thirty feet ahead? Whatever’s at thirty-one feet needs to care that we’re coming.

    Have you ever thought about rhinos and their limitations. You see, rhinos can run thirty miles an hour, which is pretty fast when you consider how much weight they’re pulling. They’re actually faster than squirrels, which can run up to twenty-six miles an hour. And even then ...read more

    When Jesus says, “You are the salt of the earth” He is speaking of our conduct and character while yet living in this sin-cursed world. He is saying we are different or we ought to be different and live different than the rest of the world.

    “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.” (NIV.) Introduction Salt is a very precious commodity, especially during ancient times. It was so ...read more

    Our unquenchable desires for meaning and more declare that we are made for meaning and more, namely God, and therefore we will only find meaning and more (satisfaction) in Him alone.

    Introduction Blaise Pascal- 17th Century French/Christian Philosopher (Disinherited Prince Syndrome): Someone who had it all, then lost it all, then spends rest of life trying to recover what he knows down deep he once possessed (Meaning and More). “If I find in myself a desire which no ...read more
