    Joseph and Mary show us how we are to respond to God when He interrupts our plans.

    A Sunday School teacher once asked her class of children: “What is Christmas a time for?” Many of the kids gave the usual answers – Jesus’ birthday, a time of joy, presents…but one child responded with a unique and unusual answer, “Christmas is a time for ...read more

    Many people wonder what the big deal is about Jesus' resurrection since there have been other people who woke up from the dead. Jesus, however, is different from everyone else. He is the only one who rose and never did again. Halleluiah!

    So what Jesus resurrected? Has he been the only one who has ever been raised from death? Yes, to this question, there is no big deal because so many other people have been raised from death. Example before Jesus: • The widow of Zarephath’s son - 1 Kings 17:22 • The Shunamite’s son - 2 Kings ...read more

    A lesson to encourage total surrender to God

    OUR GREATEST TEMPTATION Luke 22:39-46 INTRODUCTION: A poor country preacher and his wife were having a terrible argument. Seems she had bought a very expensive dress and he was none to happy.

    So we see an extraordinary parallel. For Zacchaeus stands up and makes the pronoucement, (if you will permit a paraphrase) “I surrender all that I have to own you.” And Jesus, reply is similar, “I surrender all that I am to make you mine.”

    Introduction: What would you do if you knew you had less than two weeks to live? Less than two weeks to accomplish anything of significance in life? Less than two weeks to spend with loved ones? Less than two weeks? Today is Palm Sunday. A day when we normally remember the entry of the Lord ...read more

    Jesus calls every disciple to daily self-denial and Spirit-empowered cross-bearing that ends not in loss but in resurrection life.

    (Losing to Gain) Part 1 – The Comfortable Illusion It sounds so inviting: Life is a beach. The phrase promises calm tides, soft sand, a life where the hardest choice is whether to nap or swim. We crave that ease. Sometimes we even remake God in that image—faith as a sunny getaway where problems ...read more

    Preached Palm Sunday 2010. Many religious people of Jesus' day thought they were winning by killing Jesus. They, like many today inside and outside the church let their isn and pride stand in the way of a true relationship with Christ and lost the race. T

    Luke 19vv25-48 The Wrong Horse Two Kentucky farmers who owned racing stables had developed a keen rivalry. One spring, each of them entered a horse in a local steeplechase.

    What is it like to live the life of "In-Christ"?

    In the language of the New Testament our text is one long sentence, so I’m going to break it up as we go along. The phrase, "IN CHRIST" provokes questions. Why is "in Christ" so important that Paul uses it over 170 times in his epistles? What does it mean? Short answer: it means “to be saved, ...read more

    Do you carry a burden today? Is life an up hill struggle? Would you be willing to surrender your life as a sacrifice to please God?

    The Chosen Sacrifice Genesis 17:15-27 Hebrews 5:1 Last week I introduced you to the Patriarchs with Please Pass the Patriarchs. The sermon title was to reference the fact that the Patriarchs provide the spice to our collective religious history. We learned that God called Abram out of Ur or ...read more

    Last Hours Of Jesus' Life - Free From Passivity

    Contributed by Joanne Chan on May 18, 2018
     | 5,472 views

    In this sermon, we look at how the people mocked Jesus as he walked toward the hill of Golgotha, and contrast that with his encounter with Simon from Cyrene to see what it really means to carry the cross for Jesus.

    Central theme: Jesus denied himself and took the punishment for us with total dedication. We should take up the cross and follow Jesus, which means denying our old self (our comfort, your desires) and live for God because God is leading us to an even better place. Opening: Think of a place ...read more

    Matthew 17:20 He replied, "Because you have so little faith.

    Although we cannot offer a fool-proof plan that is guaranteed to work, we can look at some proverbs that will help us be more likely to be on the winning side of life’s biggest issues. But we must be willing to surrender our sacred cows.

    Giant Issues in Life (Proverbs 22:6, 15, 7,9) 1. Upon waking, a woman said to her husband, "I just dreamt that you gave me a necklace of pearls. What do you think it means?" The man smiled and kissed his wife. "You'll know tonight," he softly whispered. That evening, the man came home with a small ...read more

    The sermon challenges believers to reject hollow religiosity and instead pursue a Spirit-filled life marked by inward transformation, daily surrender, and the visible fruit of the Holy Spirit.

    Powerless Religion or Spirit-Filled Life 2 Timothy 3:1-5; Ephesians 5:15-18; Galatians 5:22-26 In an age when appearance often replaces authenticity, and spiritual reputation can mask spiritual emptiness, we must ask ourselves how does one identify the highly religious among us? Is it not often ...read more

    Too many times we give in & surrender when we ought to keep fighting only to find out as soon as we have given up that we surrendered when we didn't have to.
