    Plugging The Leak In Your Joy Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Feb 20, 2006

    Billy Sunday observed "If there’s no joy in your religion, you’ve got a leak in your faith." In a world that is often discouraging and frustrating, how can a Christian keep the Joy of the Lord as their strength?

    OPEN: In 1937 architect Frank Lloyd Wright built a house for industrialist Hibbard Johnson. One rainy evening Johnson was entertaining distinguished guests for dinner when the roof began to leak. The water seeped through directly above Johnson himself, dripping steadily onto his bald head. ...read more

    Beginning of sermon series on Jesus our King. Looks at 2 instances in Jesus’ life when His being King mattered - His feeding the 5000 and His coronation on Palm Sunday - and how that matters to us.

    John 6:15;12:13 – An Audience with the King In March 2003, a coalition of forces from the US and Britain took possession of Baghdad and put Saddam Hussein out of business. Granted, Iraq is still in hard shape, but that doesn’t minimize what Saddam Hussein was: an absolute ruler, a tyrant, a ...read more

    All to often Christian’s find themselves living in part time for God Sunday morning only. When we come into a relationship with Christ, we are called to live a life for God everyday and all the time.

    9 to 5 Christianity 2 Timothy 2:1-7 Intro: One day a little boy anxiously waited for his father to come home from work. He had seen a bright shiny toy train in the toy store window and just had to have it. He asks his father, if he could do something in order to get this train. His father ...read more

    Prayer And The Chronically Unhappy

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 21, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,144 views

    For Reformation Sunday, October 1987: Job in the Old Testament and Luther in the Reformation Era were chronically unhappy people, but used that as a form of spiritual energy to drive them toward creative achievement and an honest personal faith.

    It looks as though some people are just born to be unhappy. There are some people who are going to approach nearly everything with a complaint or a gripe, who are going to make a personal issue out of everything. Nothing is quite good enough, nothing quite satisfies. There are folks whose ...read more

    Jesus Was Baptized Too

    On this “Baptism of Jesus” Sunday we might very well ask what John asked. Why did Jesus need to be baptized? Like John it is also good for us to see our need for baptism by Jesus.

    John the Baptist. That name brings powerful images to mind. Camel’s hair clothes held together with a leather belt. Grasshoppers dipped in wild honey for a sweet and crunchy meal. Saying the morally right thing at the socially wrong time. John was the one who called the people who came to hear ...read more

    Most of us are familiar with the Lord’s Prayer, and some of us have attended churches where it was recited every Sunday. I grew up saying this prayer so much that it just became rote for me and like Jeff in the drama I never thought God would really answer it. I was even instructed to repeat this ...read more

    Upward And Outward

     | 6,047 views

    The Eighteenth Sunday after Pentecost, Year C; The people of the world live lives that are DOWNWARD and INWARD. As God’s people, redeemed by Jesus’ blood and righteousness, we can live our lives UPWARD and OUTWARD.

    Imagine a ship at sea. The clouds are dark, the wind is strong, and the waves are rough. Is the ship in danger? It all depends on direction—which way it is headed. If it is going toward the harbor, it’s safe. If it is pointed toward the rocks, it’s in trouble! Life is like that. Two identical ...read more

    Redemption Rejected Series

     | 5,792 views

    This message was preached on Palm Sunday. Many people will shout "Hosanna" on one day and the next will cry out "Crucify Him." The reason why many stop following Jesus often not a matter of disbelief but outright rejection.

    Today is Palm Sunday, so called because when Jesus had His triumphal entry into Jerusalem, the people were exuberant and waved palm branches and placed them in the road where the Jesus, riding a donkey, walked into Jerusalem. It is interesting to note that palm branches, in that day was ...read more

    There's nothing quite like the anticipation of an upcoming college football season - unless of course it's the anticipation you feel as you prepare for worship each Sunday! Oh - it's not quite same. Why not?

    “Soul Talk: What Good Is Worship” Ps. 63 There’s just nothing quite like it. Soon college football fans everywhere will be filled with excitement. The college teams will begin practice, which will prompt prognosticators to start their analysis and empower fans to dream that this ...read more

    For Easter Sunday on Matthew 28 (Adapted from Bob Russell at: http://bobrussellsermons.org/sermon-mp3s/by-series/the-passover-plot/the-responsibility-of-the-resurrection)

    HoHum: A Sunday School teacher had just finished telling her third graders about how Jesus was crucified and placed in a tomb with a great stone sealing the opening.

    Mary's Side Of The Story

    I wonder, how does Mary’s story speak to you this Advent season? In a few weeks from now, Christmas Sunday would seem rather odd if we did not hear from Mary.

    This is not an original sermon, points borrowed from Advent 3/C, December 17, 2006 Lynne M. Dolan (I believe the message was entitled “Nothing Impossible with God”). I have restructured the message, however; want to ensure I give proper credit. TITLE: MARY’S SIDE OF THE STORY SCRIPTURE: ...read more

    Sermon for Super Bowl Sunday. Baptism and Communion are two things Christ meant to unite us. When people are able to look beyond their differences and come together to celebrate these holy sacraments then it is the greatest "Touchdown" in history.

    Making a Touchdown “I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another so that there may be no divisions among you and that you may be perfectly united in mind and thought. 11 My brothers, some from Chloe's household have ...read more

    Mostly a marriage sermon on the 5 phases of forgiveness and reconciliation (Material adapted from Dr. Paul Coleman's book, The Forgiving Marriage) This was preached over 2 Sunday's so it has two HoHum's and WBTU's.

    HoHum: Gerald Lebowitz tells this story- On the way home one night, I spotted some fresh cut roses outside a florist’s shop. After selecting a dozen and entering the shop, I was greeted by a young saleswoman. “Are these for your wife, sir? she asked. “Yes,” I said. ...read more
