    The Poverty Of Self-Sufficiency Series

    Contributed by Brian Bill on Mar 24, 2004
    based on 39 ratings
     | 12,981 views

    As we look at the first Beatitude this morning, I wonder if those listening to Jesus wished they had a dictionary with them because it must have seemed like He was speaking a different language.

    The Poverty of Self-Sufficiency I’ve received some wonderful green and gold gifts recently. This Packer headband keeps my ears warm, and this cap announces my allegiance for all to see. This Packer Christmas stocking came filled with Snicker bars; and I even received some “Lambeau loafers” as ...read more

    I was struck with how “in control” Jesus was, even when events were transpiring around him and people were doing disturbing things to Him.

    Meek Does Not Mean Weak This past Tuesday Pastor Jeff and I had had the opportunity to view a screening of the film called, “The Passion of the Christ” with about 4,000 other pastors. We should have known we were in for an unforgettable experience when we saw boxes of Kleenex arrayed on tables ...read more

     | 20,392 views

    While we often question God’s love, we can rest assured that He has poured out His favor on His people.

    Experiencing God’s Love A man was having a hard time getting out of bed one Sunday morning. “Get up. It’s time to get ready for church!” He just grumbled and replied grumpily, “I don’t want to go to church today. Those people at church don’t like me. I don’t want to go.” She persisted, “You ...read more

     | 13,238 views

    In order to understand how to have a marriage that lasts, you must follow God’s instruction manual.

    How to Have a Marathon Marriage It’s interesting to find out what kids think about marriage. When asked how you decide who to marry, Kirsten, age 10 answered this way: “No person really decides before they grow up who they’re going to marry. God decides it all way before, and you get to find out ...read more

     | 126,043 views

    We need to come back to a biblical theology of fatherhood. God very clearly says that dads are to be difference-makers by leading and loving their wives and kids. Fellow fathers, it’s my prayer that through our study of God’s Word together that we might

    Fathers Who Lead Happy Father’s Day, dads!

    This morning, as we take a look at Psalm 145, we will see that worship is designed to radically impact our very lives.

    The Impact of Worship I’m thankful for the staff we have at PBC. Our church secretary, Barb, has really done a super job with our weekly bulletin, don’t you think? On the rare occasion that we have a typo, it’s usually my fault for not catching it when I proof it. Other churches are not as ...read more

    As we study the book of Nehemiah, we’re going to learn things that will help us personally, we’ll discover principles that will guide us as we move into a time of building here at PBC, and we’ll end up understanding a critical part of Old Testament histor

    Knowing How to Pray I checked my notes and realized that it’s been a year since I gave you a Bible quiz. Here’s a new test for you. I’ll give you a hint ­ all the questions have to do with the Old Testament. Who was the greatest comedian in the Bible? Samson. He brought the house down. Who ...read more

    This morning we’re going to learn about 4 vows, or promises, that the people of God made in Nehemiah 10.

    Making Investments That Last I heard about this man who bought a parrot. It was a beautiful parrot but he had a really bad mouth. He could swear for five minutes straight without repeating himself. The man was embarrassed because the bird was driving him crazy in front of people. He tried to ...read more

    Paul answers his critics by detailing his conversion and his faithfulness to God’s call upon His life.

    “I Want You To Know…” Galatians 1:11-24 Our society has perfected the art of destroying people’s character, questioning their intentions, and planting seeds of doubt in the minds of inquiring minds.

    based on 78 ratings
     | 28,489 views

    It’s easy to think that bad things happen because God is out to get us. That’s not true. The Bible establishes some reasons why things don’t turn out they way we’d like – personal sin, corporate sin, and evil influences. While we can’t insulate ourselv

    Jesus is still actively involved in lives today, even though He no longer graces the earth with His physical presence. Just as He was committed to help the weary and burdened when He walked among us, so too, He tells us to come, to take, to learn, and to

    Second Things Second

    Contributed by Russell Brownworth on Jul 14, 2003

     | 3,670 views

    Many people get the first thing first...accepting Christ. Many miss putting the second thing second, giving themselves to the local church.

    July 13, 2003 First they gave themselves to the Lord; and then by God’s will, they gave themselves to us as well. 2 Corinthians 8:5 (GN) On the day of dedication of "Solomon’s Temple," the king erected a brazen platform in the outer court.

    based on 28 ratings
     | 7,347 views

    A sermon that uses two childrens word pictures - pooh bear and Alice in Wonderland - to discus how Hebrews chapter 6 can point us towards maturity. This sermon is rather long and I only used a portion of it when preaching.

    Destination Maturity!!!!!!!!!! Here is Pooh Bear, coming downstairs now, bump, bump, bump, on the back of his head, behind Christopher Robin. It is, as far as he knows, the only way of coming downstairs, but sometimes he feels that there really is another way, if only he could stop bumping for a ...read more
