    1- We’re on a team, so be a team player. 2- We have a coach, so listen to him. 3- We may get hurt, so what? Play anyway.

ILL.- A little boy was overheard talking to himself as he strutted through the backyard, wearing his baseball cap and toting a ball and bat: "I’m the greatest ...read more

    Help Wanted - Man Of God

    Contributed by Ralf Bergmann on Sep 14, 2004
    based on 28 ratings
     | 6,995 views

    Today, we have the threat of cross-contamination between the ways of God and the ways of the world, just as it was threatening the church where Timothy was Paul’s chosen leader.

    Sermon Title: Help Wanted – Man of God Text: 1 Timothy 3 Date: August 24, 2003 Context of Scripture: It only stands to reason that since we dealt with the issue of women in the ministry last times we looked at Paul’s letter to Pastor Timothy, we should look at what is required of the men.

    based on 33 ratings
     | 6,326 views

    Suffering is a common human experience. But it doesn’t have to stop us ministering for God. In fact God can use our experience of suffering to help others by the way we offer them the support that we have received from God.

    This week I’ve been listening to a series of lectures on depression by Arch Hart, who’s Professor of Psychology at Fuller Seminary in the US. One of the interesting things he said was a piece of advice he gives to ministers. He says never take your day off on a Monday if you can possibly help it. ...read more

    Sermon 1 of 4 in a series on Jonah and God

    Introduction: 1. I will admit that I’ve been looking forward to preaching this series of messages from the book of Jonah since I first came up with the idea in my sermon thinking last year. 2. Jonah is one of those books in the Bible that never fails to fascinate people. Perhaps it’s the idea of a ...read more

    Do All Religions Lead To Salvation?

    Contributed by Basil Banyasz on Sep 25, 2004
    based on 27 ratings
     | 4,208 views

    This sermon tells that Christ is the way, the truth and the life and that only Christians who accept and believe accordingly will have salvation available to them.

    Do all religions lead to salvation? Jesus, Himself, said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through Me.” [John 14:6] In my Study Bible, there is a footnote that says: The way, the truth, and the life is a Person, our Lord Jesus Christ: He is so because ...read more

    based on 55 ratings
     | 7,764 views

    We have taken our cues about how to have fun from the wrong places. When Jesus parties, he includes rather than excludes the misfits; he goes not to participate nor to criticize, but to listen and redeem; and when you party with Jesus, you have joy and z

    Suppose you gave a party and Jesus showed up! What would that do to your party? He wasn’t on the invitation list, He didn’t RSVP, but here He comes, making a beeline straight at you, with arms outstretched in greeting, and about twelve of his best buds looking eagerly at the buffet table. ...read more

     | 2,313 views

    Fellowship with God is a matter of letting that which comes from him, rather than the world system, define how we live.

    - - - - - - - Unless otherwise indicated all scripture is quoted from the New Living Translation of the Bible. - - - - - - - Several people have commented about the fact that they are finding the book of 1st John to be extremely timely and thought-provoking.

    Certain concerns we should have during the Christmas season in 2002.

    INTRO.- Jesus said, “Don’t worry about your life.” BUT WE DO. We do worry about lots of things. Or as some people might say, “I’m not worried about certain things, but I am concerned.” Worry or concern. Whatever word you choose, the thought is the same. We are worried about many things in ...read more
