    based on 5 ratings

    Though the trend towards "evangelistic atheism" in our culture is disturbing, followers of Christ should be concerned about the "practical atheism" that may be at work in our lives.

    Practical Atheism The Cosmic Authority Problem TCF Sermon Text July 15, 2007 Did you ever notice that children sometimes have misconceptions or misunderstandings, about the Bible, about church, and about God?

    The Greatest Challenge Of The Cross

     | 13,853 views

    A message that our spiritually dull generation does not want to hear. Sacrifice is one of the demands of Jesus Christ.

    The Greatest Challenge of the Cross Matthew 16:24-25 KJV Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. [25] For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find ...read more

    In this final sermon of 2006, the message is that Jesus can make all things new. As the old things pass away, Jesus replaces them with New things, if we will only give our hearts to Him.

    New Things By Pastor Jim May As we enter this New Year of 2007 I thought it would be good for us to think about having some new things. Don’t you just love being able to have something new? I love the fresh smell of a new car, before the aroma of French fries and hamburgers lost under the seat ...read more

    Are There Many Paths To God Or Is Jesus The Only Way? Series

    In this sermon we learn why is it not arrogant or narrow-minded to say that Jesus is the only way to God. I borrowed a lot from Lee Strobel's sermon on this subject.

    Introduction: A. The story is told of two rival rabbis who came face to face in a narrow alley way. 1. The alley was so narrow that it was impossible for the two to pass by each other. 2. The one rabbi, pulling himself up to his full height, said, “I never make way for arrogant, ...read more

    If you could see where God is taking you, you would understand the reason for the great warfare and adversity you are facing. You are pregnant with destiny and Satan knows it.

    Most of us are familiar with the facts of the crucifixion. We know that Jesus was hung on a cross and left to die and that after His death He was buried in a tomb. We can list the facts but the bigger question remains: When all is said and done, what d

    The devil would do his best to thwart the Church, but he is a defeated foe.

    1 Samuel 13:16-18 KJV And Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people that were present with them, abode in Gibeah of Benjamin: but the Philistines encamped in Michmash.

    In His boyhood, Jesus demonstrates how to develop a balanced life.

    We consider a fictional story about a mischievous boy who refuses to grow up as cute. [Show picture of Peter Pan]. But when the same thing occurs in real life, there is something wrong. And that seems to be happening more and more in today’s culture as illustrated by the opening words from a ...read more

    God Knows What He’s Doing

    Contributed by H.b. Charles Jr. on Jul 17, 2012
    based on 18 ratings
     | 66,305 views

    "God Knows What He’s Doing" is a sermon based on the doxology of Paul recorded in Romans 11:33-36. It declares that God is worthy to be praised, because God knows what he’s doing, even when we do not.

    GOD KNOWS WHAT HE’S DOING Romans 11:33-36 There is a pattern in the New Testament Epistles of Paul. He begins by explaining doctrine and then exhorts to duty. This pattern reminds us that doctrine and duty go together in the Christian life. Christianity is not religious activism disconnected ...read more
