Sermons on Sovereign Acts:

The Source Of My Hope

Contributed by Mike Hays on Sep 30, 2001

In confusing times of tragedy and loss like many Americans are facing at the present time, it is hard to make sense of it all. The Psalmist gives us encouragement to seek understanding and confidence in the "sanctuary" of God’s presence.

The Source of My Hope Psalm 73 I heard on the news this past week that one of the outcomes of what has happened since the September 11th attack on America has been a rush on bookstores around the country. The sale of Bibles is up and that is good news. Alongside of this good news is the report that ...read more

Christ Superior To The Angels Series

Contributed by Michael Goodfellow on Oct 7, 2006

A look at Hebrews use of Scripture to prove his difficulties, and our need to use the same source.

The title of today’s message is “Christ superior to the angels.” To us this may seem to be a very obvious statement. Of course, Christ is superior to the angels, because of what we believe about him, what we have been taught about him. But in the first century, to the community that the author of ...read more

Stained With Blood

Contributed by James Jack on Mar 18, 2006

An introduction to Isaiah, revealing the judgement and mercy of God.

In a lot of senses, the passage that we just heard read is a microcosm of the whole book of Isaiah.

Full, But Empty Series

Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Dec 14, 2006

This message is part of series from Isaiah paralleling ancient Israel and America. Israel was attempting to exault itself. It exposes the problem of human pride and self-sufficiency.

The Return Ticket Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Nov 19, 2006

The same strategies that fail outside of God’s timing can work wonderfully within God’s timing. The patterns we see before Moses left Egypt are repeated as Moses left Midian, but they now produce success because God’s time is right.

The Return Ticket (Exodus 4:18-31) 1. I do not like many movies, especially newer ones. Although Christian convictions would limit what and how much I watch, if I was lost I still would rarely watch movies. It is who I am. I am, for the most part, a movie dud. 2. I will watch Charlie Chan, or ...read more
