    Three Of The Oldest Church Traditions Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Nov 9, 2015
     | 5,994 views

    Because the disciples were very human, and because human nature hasn’t changed, they exemplified three established traditions that are every bit as common in the church today.

    Three of the Oldest Church Traditions (Mark 10:32-45) 1. We all live within the boundaries of routines and patterns; but they do not always hold true. 2. Two old friends bumped into one another on the street one day. One of them looked forlorn, almost on the verge of tears. His friend asked, "What ...read more

    Contributed by David Owens on May 31, 2021
     | 5,537 views

    In this introductory sermon for a series on the Book of James, we explore two questions: who is the author and who are the recipients. The sermon also drives home the point that we must be doers of the Word of God and not hearers only.

    Introduction: A. One day, a couple of weeks before Christmas in the mid1980s, I was driving on the back roads of Arkansas from El Dorado, Arkansas to Memphis, TN. 1. I was on my way to take my graduate class finals and I was running late. 2. I set the cruise control about 8 miles over the speed ...read more

    Contributed by Guy Glass on Aug 23, 2006
     | 6,548 views

    The gospel is not the gospel if the resurrection is removed. The resurrection of Christ is key to our continued existence as a church. Without the resurrection, just as the gospel ceases to be the gospel, so the church ceases to be the church.

    NEGATIVE AND POSITIVE CONSEQUENCES OF THE RESURRECTION 1 CORINTHIANS 15:12-28. INTRODUCTION: As you can see on the PowerPoint slide behind me, the gospel is not the gospel if the resurrection is removed. The resurrection of Christ is key to our continued existence as a church.

    Jesus’ leadership command to His disciples was not one of lording it over others in entitlement, but rather selflessly serving them in humility.

    Introductory sermon in a series on the Book of James.

    If there is one thing we learned in the last five weeks as we spent some time going back to the basics of our faith, it is that our faith in Jesus is not just about what happens to me some day when my life here on earth ends.
