God And Hurting Persons

Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 21, 2009

God has always expressed care for those who hurt; it’s nothing new. But Jesus extended that care to those not like His listeners, and His church is intended to reach the marginal.

This week, while the rest of you were surfing the Internet reading Ken Starr’s report, I was reading my favorite form of literature. I was reading "church bulletin bloopers." Church bulletin bloopers are those funny little errors that creep into church bulletins, maybe because the typist didn’t ...read more

The Discipline Of Prayer Series

Contributed by David Scudder on May 30, 2009

Since prayer is really just talking to God, then why is it so hard? Some of us have no problem spending a lot of time talking to other people? So why does it take so much effort to talk to God?

Purpose: To show that a false commitment to Christ will cause a lack of desire to pray. Aim: I want the listener to be sure that he is totally committed to Christ. INTRODUCTION: For many years medical science thought that ulcers were caused by stress and spicy foods. But, in 1979 two Australian ...read more

Psalm 2 Series

Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Feb 25, 2020

The first two psalms are often considered to be designed as a pair serving as an introduction to the 150-psalm collection. The first psalm describes the difference between the blessed man and the evil man, and Psalm 2 is about triumph over the forces that oppose the faith.

For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more

Jesus Feeds The Five Thousand Series

Contributed by Freddy Fritz on Apr 12, 2014

The miracle of Jesus feeding the five thousand in Luke 9:10-17 will teach us that all we really need is Jesus.

Scripture There are only two miracles that are recorded in all four of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.

Jesus' healing of a man on the Sabbath teaches us several truths about Jesus.

Scripture During the last few months of Jesus’ life, opposition to him grew. Herod wanted to kill Jesus (Luke 13:13), and the scribes and Pharisees were “lying in wait for him, to catch him in something he might say” (Luke 11:54) or do. In their desire to get rid of Jesus, the ...read more

Touched By His Power Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jul 15, 2018

When Jesus healed people "power went out from Him". This isn't the only time "Power" is spoken about as "coming out" from Jesus when He performed His miracles. What does that mean and what can it mean to us?

This Church Is Going To The Dogs

This sermon teaches that all are loved by God and therefore the Church should reach out to everyone.

The Church is Going to the Dogs (Mark 7:24-37) Jesus left that place and went to the vicinity of Tyre. He entered a house and did not want anyone to know it; yet he could not keep his presence secret. 25 In fact, as soon as she heard about him, a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an ...read more

Managing A Ministry Series

Contributed by D Marion Clark on Oct 25, 2012

Jesus' ministry, though popular, was mostly misunderstood. Indeed, he was popular with the crowd precisely because he was misunderstood.

Introduction Mark takes a break from confrontation stories between Jesus and his critics to give us an overview of Jesus’ ministry. It can be easy to lose sight of what actually is going on around Jesus. Mark reminds us that Jesus has become a superstar, and with that he has inherited the ...read more
