    A parable is an earthly story with a Heavenly meaning.

    A. INTRODUCTION: LUKE 18:1-8 Jesus told the story of a persistent widow who continually asked an unjust judge for justice. He finally gave in because of her persistence. This is one of the few parables where Jesus gave its purpose before telling the story. “Me ought always to pray, and not to ...read more

    We are loved by God.

    Intro: 1. In the 1980s, people shelled out thousands of dollars to own a potbellied pig, an exotic house pet imported from Vietnam. Their breeders claimed these mini pigs were quite smart and would grow to only 40 pounds. Well, they were half right. The pigs were smart. But they had a ...read more

    A Dysfunctional Family Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021
     | 7,952 views

    The beautiful story of Joseph has attracted a lot of attention through the years. Andrew Lloyd Weber thought so highly of the story that he developed the story of Joseph into a Broadway musical, Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat.

    If you think you’re job is hard, think about this… Just like an NFL quarterback, NASA will schedule the launch of a rocket in an open window. A launch window is determined for each rocket and the window has several factors. Imagine the complications in attempting to place a land rover on the ...read more

    The Rich Man And Lazarus Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Mar 28, 2025
     | 928 views

    In today’s text we have a story about a wealthy man and an impoverished man whose stories intersect at the gate of the wealthy man. This is a haunting story and one that features people with opposite experiences in life and death.

    The Rich Man and Lazarus Luke 16:19-31 Introduction Luke’s gospel is known for having a lot to say about riches and poverty. We might assume that Jesus mostly talked to poor people, but we know he spoke to the Pharisees, many of whom would have been wealthy. (16:14) He also was known to hang ...read more

    O Little Town Of Bethlehem

    Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Dec 23, 2012
    based on 73 ratings
     | 55,134 views

    In forty brief words, Micah tells the story of a very special town. Though his words may be brief, they contain a wealth of spiritual truth. The Story Of Bethlehem is a special story that needs to be told and retold. Especially in these days.

    For those not familiar with an Anglican Service; there are four Scripture Readings before the Sermon. The Scripture Readings for this day were: Micah 5: 2-5; Psalm 80:1-7; Hebrews 10:5-10 and Luke 1:39-55. (This Message was reworked December 2015). In 1865, ...... shortly after the Civil war,.... ...read more

    A summary of our faith in God’s Word.

    Sermon for Matthew 13:1-23 July 13th 2008 “As for what was sown on good soil, this is the one who hears the word and understands it, who indeed bears fruit and yields, in one case a hundredfold.” Like I mentioned, this past week I had the privilege to serve as Camp Pastor at Lutheran Hills in ...read more

    Overview: Exodus 1

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Apr 8, 2009
    based on 14 ratings
     | 3,878 views

    This is a more in-depth study than the one we did in Genesis. It is only on chapter 1 of Exodus, and covers the period the Israelites were in captivity in Egypt.

    As the book of EXODUS begins, the Israelites are being held as slaves in Egypt. And when the time is ready for God to lead them out of Egypt, He calls a man named Moses to free them. EXODUS is a story of how God protected His people by breaking the chains to captivity they were held under. ...read more

    Thomas is given a sign, and responds in faith.

    John 20.19-31 Thomas (who was called the Twin), one of the twelve, was not with them when Jesus came. 25 So the other disciples told him, “We have seen the Lord.” But he said to them, “Unless I see the mark of the nails in his hands, and put my finger in the mark of the nails and my hand in his ...read more

    The Pain Of Betrayal

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Aug 13, 2017
    based on 4 ratings
     | 20,090 views

    The story of Joseph is a story of betrayal by those closest to you. But it is also a story of how God will see you through, no matter what you face, and how God can bring good out of the worst possible situation.

    Genesis 37:2-4, 12-28 The Pain of Betrayal Boy, does it hurt when someone betrays you! As the anonymous saying goes, “The saddest thing about betrayal is that it never comes from your enemies.” We went through a painful experience in one of my churches. A small group was full of people ...read more

    Sex And The City Of God

    Contributed by Rodney Buchanan on Feb 12, 2006
    based on 16 ratings
     | 2,793 views

    1. The Bible teaches us that sex is a gift of God. 2. The Bible teaches us that sex is sacred. 3. The Bible presents boundaries for the use of sex.

    With the advent of television’s Sex and the City, and a host of shows like it, it should be apparent that our nation is in a moral free fall. The whole idea of who we are and how we should live has become so distorted that it has corrupted our vision of what God created us to be. Rather than ...read more

    "anger (Part 1): Side Effects Of Anger And What The Bible Says About It" Series

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Oct 13, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,185 views

    Anger is a part of human emotions. Some anger is necessary for making things better, like what Jesus did. Anger becomes a problem when we have trouble controlling it, causing us to say or do things we regret.

    Opening: A young mother and her little boy were driving down the street. The little boy asked, "Mommy, why do the idiots only come out when Daddy drives?" Do you get what the boy meant? His father liked to call other drivers' idiot' when he drove, but his mother never said that. ...read more

    "The Eyes Have It!!!"

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on Apr 8, 2010
    based on 7 ratings
     | 6,312 views

    There’s a time, for all of us, I think when we believe…but we don’t have the foggiest idea what that means. That must be a little like what the first disciples of Jesus Christ felt.

    Luke 24:13-35 “The Eyes Have It!!!” By: Ken Sauer, Pastor of East Ridge United Methodist Church, Chattanooga, TN I remember a time, long ago and far away… …on a distant planet… …no… …that’s not right… I remember a time when I was asked by the associate pastor of my church to read the ...read more

    A sermon on the story of Elijah and the Prophets of Baal.

    READING: 1 Kings 18:17-40 (Text v39.)
