    Politics, Civil War, And The Church

    Contributed by John Sears on Nov 13, 2016
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,829 views

    The world is reacting with anger, fear, or pride over the elections. That is not surprising. What is surprising is that the civil war has entered some churches. This is a topical message on how to deal with it.

    Introduction: The civil war is brewing. Did you see the young lady on the news? She was one of those marching in protest to the election results. And a reporter caught up to her to ask some questions. What she said was downright scary. She said that what we need is a revolution in order to ...read more

    Many believing spouses are “unequally yoked” and fear their kids will follow their lost spouse. Acts 16 describes a young man who grew up in an unequally yoked home, yet was of great value to the early church. A hopeful sermon for the unequally yoked.

    Hope for the Unequally Yoked Series: Acts Chuck Sligh October 2, 2016 BLURB: Many believing spouses “unequally yoked” to an unsaved spouse. They naturally fear their children will follow in the steps of the unbelieving partner. Yet in Acts 16, we read of a young man who grew up in an ...read more

     | 10,761 views

    We look at the reality of Hedges, the crucial need for intercessors, the five things that hindered Moses' intercession, and the five arguments he used to prevail with God.

    MOSES STANDING IN THE BREACH Exodus 32:7-14, 32. INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Bill’s girlfriend, Karen, got a job at a local hardware store. Karen told Bill, "The owners don't want us hanging out with our friends. If you stop by, tell them you're my brother." 2. On Bill’s first visit, he ...read more

    Pure Extravagant Love

    Contributed by Scott Spencer on Jun 23, 2014
     | 5,067 views

    The longer we know Him the more we love Him, and the more we want to love Him. Our love for Him becomes an extravagant love. There is nothing too great to do for Him; nothing too much to give.

    Pure Extravagant Love Mark 14:1-9 1. Now the Passover and Unleavened Bread were two days away; and the chief priests and the scribes were seeking how to seize Him by stealth and kill Him; 2. for they were saying, “Not during the festival, otherwise there might be a riot of the ...read more

     | 21,268 views

    Jesus came to earth with an assignment. He left us to complete that assignment.

    This week I want to go back to the prayer Jesus was praying on his last night with his disciples. As you may recall He said this prayer was not only for them but others who would believe in him due to their testimony. Jesus first prayed for himself and the begin praying for certain behaviors He ...read more

     | 10,209 views

    Noah or no one else had ever seen or heard of rain thus far, but Noah believed that it surely would because God said so, he was a witness to one and all as he preached and warned for 120 years, today we're preaching to the lost, but most don't heed it.

    Extravagant Love

    Contributed by Scott Spencer on Jul 9, 2014
     | 5,202 views

    When the unbelieving world looks at the Christian, they have a difficult time figuring us out. In terms of their own world view, the way we Christians live doesn't make a lot of sense.

    Trust Me

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Sep 8, 2015
     | 10,553 views

    Trust issues; many of us have them. Yet I think everyone trusts in something or someone. In God We Trust is written on our money yet ironically more americans trust in money than they do God. Let's see why trusting in God is the much wiser choice.

    TRUST ME In my last series, I focused on the places where Jesus said, “I tell you the truth”. But in order to accept what Jesus said we need to trust that he knows what the truth is. Jesus said to Pilate, “Everyone on the side of truth listens to me”, to where Pilate ...read more

    It can be hard to stay focused on our spiritual disciplines. When we have purpose behind what we are doing, it will help us to focus on what is important. (This was built on the Next Steps series available on Sermon Central for purchase)

     | 4,234 views

    SOME HAVE SAID PERCEPTION IS REALITY. PEOPLE HAD A PERCEPTION OF THE TYPE OF KING JESUS WAS TO BE, A PERCEPTION THAT WOULD HAVE TO CHANGE FROM WARRIOR KING TO SACRIFICIAL LAMB.

    THE REVEALING OF JESUS’ KINGSHIP ACTS 19:28-44 I WANT YOU TO PICTURE FOR A MOMENT, QUESN ELIZABETH AS SHE WAS PREPARING TO CELEBRATE THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF HER CORONATION.

    Biblical Evangelism Stresses The Urgency Of Repentance

    Contributed by Douglas Phillips on Sep 15, 2015
     | 4,914 views

    MOST CHANGES IN OUR WORLD HAVE COME AS A RESULT OF PEOPLE SEEKING AN EASY BELIEVING CHRISTIANITY THAT WILL NOT COST ANYTHING TO FOLLOW,. WE WANT TO BE BUDDY-BUDDY AND NOT STRESS THE NEED OF REPENTANCE.

    BIBLICAL EVANGELISM STRESSES THE URGENCY OF REPENTANCE ISAIAH 55:1-8 A REAL COMPLAINT ABOUT MODERN INVENTIONS, PARTICULARLY FROM THE LAST CENTURY, IS THAT PEOPLE ARE PLACING A GREATER DEPENDANCY ON THEM AND LESS ON THEIR OWN SKILLS.

     | 6,525 views

    We may not always realize it, or be ready to accept it...but when He tells us that He will do it... you better believe God always stands ready in every situation..to deliver us and to deliver his promises that he's made to us

    Ready..Set..."Rest" When were young were taught growing up..about competition and about striving and doing our best...

    The Least Of These Series

    Contributed by Sherm Nichols on Sep 21, 2015
     | 13,425 views

    Sermon series intro. Concept is borrowed from a series by Tim Cook, a fellow preacher. A study of "the least of these" and how the church can help them, accompanied by practical application for the whole church family to do together.

    Intro: I know I keep saying this, but did you notice that in the Scripture we had read today, there are 2 groups? 2 – those who go into eternal life, and those who go into eternal punishment. There’s no 3rd group. And the main difference between these groups is the way they treated ...read more

    4th in this series. Borrowed from a concept by Tim Cook, a fellow preacher. A study of Matthew 25, and how the Church can put it into practice.

    Intro: How did you decide what to put on this morning? I usually put on what my wife says I can wear. That’s why, if anyone ever says to me, “Oh, you look nice in that!” I can tell them, “My wife dresses me nice.” It’s true. If it matches, or anything close ...read more
