How Great Is Our God

Contributed by Joe Rowland on Sep 15, 2008

How great is our God? How can this world we live in say there is no God? Go outside at night and look at the stars. Look at the moon, how did they get there? Some people believe in the “Big Bang” theory. I believe in the “Big God” theory.

How Great Is Our God Psalm 14: 1-7 1.The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. 2.The LORD looked down from heaven upon the children of men, to see if there were any that did understand, and seek God. 3.They ...read more

Concentrating On Christ

Contributed by Jerry Flury on Dec 10, 2002

Nothing should be more important in your life than to concentrate on Christ – Who He is and what your relationship to Him is. He is so important that He is the central theme of Scripture, the supreme message of the church, and the solitary song of the sou

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

"Oh How He Loves You And Me!”

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Sep 30, 2021

Today I am preaching from a song that many of us like to hear. There is one part of the lyric that I really like, it goes like this, “O HOW HE LOVES ME. OH HOW HE LOVE YOU!”

It is an awesome thought to think that the God of this vast universe loves us with a jealous love. Oh How He Loves us! Illus: Many of us can remember when we were in grammar school and we started loving the opposite sex for the first time. Before we men grew into that area of our life if the ...read more

Silas Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Dec 31, 2021

Not everyone liked what Paul and Silas were doing, so they imprisoned them. Despite all the intricate and demanding things they experienced, they never complained. On the contrary, songs of praise were heard from the darkest dungeon where they were being held.

Silas Paul settled in Antioch, where he continued to work with the people to live a happy life by the gospel. However, Paul felt that the Holy Spirit was working in the Church, so that it was time to go out and spread the gospel of Jesus. So he went out to be a missionary, and on one of his ...read more

Directions For Dealing With A Difficult Death

Contributed by Steven Dow on Mar 14, 2006

This message was for the funeral of a 28-year-old woman who died of a drug overdose. I only met the family the night before the funeral. It should be easy to personalize and would work well with any difficult death such as suicide, ect.
