    What Makes Jesus So Special?

    Contributed by Dan Erickson on Nov 21, 2000
    based on 75 ratings
     | 15,025 views

    Why Christmas is such an important celebration and why 2000 years after His birth, Jesus Christ is worthy of our trust, love, and devotion.

    In less than two weeks it will be Christmas and almost all of us will celebrate the birth of someone born 2000 years ago. Why? That is the question of the day. What makes Jesus Christ so special? Why isn't the birthday of Mohammed, Confucius, or Buddha the biggest holiday of the year? Why does our ...read more

    Laughing At God's Promises

    based on 60 ratings
     | 34,549 views

    Sometimes God’s promises are so amazing they are hard to beleive! Yet God does the amazing.

    In the movie “It Could Happen to You” which is said to be loosely based on a true story, Nicolas Cage plays a cop who stops in to a diner and doesn’t have enough money to give a tip to the waitress, so he makes an unbelievable promise. He says that he has a lottery ticket and if he wins, her tip ...read more

    Simon The Pharisee

    Contributed by Jelle Horjus on Nov 1, 2005
    based on 87 ratings
     | 35,476 views

    While reading this story we are all focused on what the woman does. It is Simon however on whom I would like to put the spotlight: the reality is that we are like the Pharisee, and not like the woman!

    Simon, the Self-righteous Pharisee - sermon on Luke 7: 36-50 - The sinful woman. That is the name the translators of our translation gave to this paragraph in Luke’s gospel. Another title would have been more appropriate however. Maybe something like ‘Simon, the proud Pharisee.’ For the deepest ...read more

    Whatever people may say about death, they know in their bones that death doesn’t end it all! But on Easter we celebrate the end of that fear! We celebrate an empty tomb!

    "Celebrating the Empty Tomb" Matthew 28:1-10 Easter Sunday 2005 Lord God, our Father, by the power that raised your Son Jesus from the dead, turn our lives around so that we might see and know Him as our Living Lord and Savior.

    Doubting Thomas (Judas Thomas) and dealing with doubt

    A defendant was on trial for murder in Oklahoma. There was strong evidence indicating guilt, but there was no corpse. In the defense’s closing statement the lawyer, knowing that his client would probably be convicted, resorted to a trick. "Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I have a surprise for you ...read more

    In this reworking of an important sermon from 2003, Dave points out six things that must happen in order for a person to live a life blessed by God.

    The Third Day He Rose Again From The Dead Series

    Contributed by Freddy Fritz on Aug 20, 2004
    based on 16 ratings
     | 14,882 views

    This sermon suggests seven consequences if the resurrection of the dead is false. But, because the resurrection of the dead is true, we have hope!

    Introduction As we continue our series in The Apostles’ Creed I would like to examine today what it means that Jesus rose from the dead on the third day. Please listen as I recite the Apostles’ Creed: I believe in God the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth. I believe in Jesus Christ, ...read more

    For Those In Quest Series

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Sep 19, 2004
    based on 54 ratings
     | 4,368 views

    The Bereans show us that a quest becomes noble when: 1. We receive the Good News with eagerness. 2. We examine the Scriptures to see if it is true. 3. We are transformed by the truth.

    My favorite part of Paul Harvey is the last segment of the newscast that he calls “For What It’s Worth.” One day he gave this interesting story: “Our For What It’s Worth Department hears from Hershey, Pennsylvania — where the woman in the Mercedes had been waiting patiently for a parking place to ...read more

    Confident Of His Coming

    Contributed by Harold Orndorff on May 25, 2004
    based on 44 ratings
     | 5,145 views

    Though people have and continue to doubt that Jesus will return, we can be confident of His coming because God has judged the world before, because God is not bound by time, and because Christ’s coming will not be preceded by definite signs.

    Confident of His Coming II Peter 3:1-13 Maranatha - - come quickly, Lord Jesus. Quickly, you say? What’s so quick about two thousand years? (The third millennium, by the way, started not so long ago!) Come where? Do what? Would you really want Jesus to come? Why can’t he just stay where He ...read more

    An Easter morning message concentrating on the empty tomb and what it means to Christians today.

    What makes a good sermon? It is one that will take you to the valley of sinful despair, and then transports you to the top of the hill in praise!
