    As bounty hunters look diligently for those who jump bail, so should Christians look diligently for the lost and for those who have went astray.

    Intro: Duane Chapman alias “DOG the Bounty Hunter” In Matthew chapter 18, Jesus is talking to the disciples here in reference to Vs. 1. Then He gives them and us a warning in vs. 6-9, as bounty hunters we need to hold fast to the truths found in these 5 verses. I. A Bounty Hunter must know who ...read more

    Expository sermon on Ephesians 1:3-14, illustrating and applying the spiritual blessings we have "in Christ" that make us contagious with the Good News.

    Remember when we were kids how our mom used to tell us that we could catch a cold if we went outside without our coats and hats and got too cold or especially if we got our heads wet? Truth is, germs, not cold weather, cause colds. The reason we catch more colds in the cold winter weather is ...read more

    Our decision to share our faith can be built on shifting sands, or solid rock.

    I’ve met folks who think that if Jesus walked among us today like he did back in Galilee, we’d be so much better off in our Christianity. How could we ignore him, they ask, if he was right here in front of us? Judging from the people who were right in front of him a couple thousand years ago, it ...read more

    Good News?

    John wants to know whether Jesus is the Messiah, because it doesn’t seem that the gospel he’s proclaiming is good news. But it is!

    I guess everyone has some idea what we mean when we talk about the gospel. But I wonder what your preferred translation of that word would be. Is Good News the correct translation do you think? Is the gospel necessarily good news? You may never have thought about that question, but if you do ...read more

    "Follow Him"

    Contributed by Ronnie Knight on Nov 10, 2006
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,526 views

    We have made discipleship into what we endeavor to become for Christ rather than what Christ endeavors to make us for Himself. This sermon should challenge each hearer to follow Jesus and let Him make them into what He wants them to be.

    We live in a world of the “self-made” and the “self-proclaimed”. We ring this mind set into our Christianity. We make discipleship into what we endeavor to become for Christ rather than what Christ endeavors to make us for Himself. In our efforts to believe, belong and become we spend for to much ...read more
