    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 3, 2010
    based on 66 ratings
     | 18,556 views

    The Pharisees lived by a "patches" theology - if they could patch over the sin in their lives, the hole didn’t exist anymore. But Christians are not called to patch our old way of life. Do you know what we’re to do instead?

    OPEN: I’ve noticed over the years that kids love jokes that are plays on words. For example, when I was a kid (now I never did this myself, you understand), but I’ve known kids who would call a neighbor and ask: “Is your refrigerator running?” (pause). When the person on the other end of the line ...read more

    "Jesus Sinners Doth Receive"

    Jesus Calls a Sinner St. Matthew 9:9-13 St. Matthew had quite a reputation to live down! The ’publicans’, or ’tax collectors’, of the Roman Empire were so crooked that the animosity toward the IRS today is partly because of them.

    What "gods" was David witnessing to? And how can the decision he made influence our choices in how we witness for our Lord?

    OPEN: A Sunday School teacher once asked her students: “What do you think God looks like?” These were some of the answers: - He looks like Billy Graham. - He’s an old man because of all the years He’s been alive. - He looks like a human being with a heart, feet, eyes like ...read more

  • God And The Harlot Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Aug 22, 2021
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,121 views

    It's obvious God forgave Rahab her sin... but if He forgave her, how come the Bible repeatedly refers to her as "Rahab The Harlot"?

SCRIPTURE and PRAYER SERMON: Years ago, when Logansport was a major railroad hub, the trains would stop at what we now call “Little Turtle Waterway.” And if you’ve ever noticed, there’s still a depot down by the tracks.

     | 29,427 views

    Jesus wasn’t "attractive" enough to be elected president, let alone Savior. But why wasn’t Jesus desirable to the people of His day? What message did He preach that the masses reject Him?

    OPEN: How many of you have noticed that there’s a Presidential election coming up? (This met with a certain amount of laughter). Just a few weeks ago, the Republican Party - and then the Democratic Party - had their political conventions where they officially nominated their candidate. There was ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,833 views

    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Aug 24, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,949 views

    Numbers 12 provides a pattern which demonstrates the way dissension develops among God’s People and why. Two New Testament passages show the antidote.

    It was one of those nightmares I hope never to experience again. Our regular mid-week prayer service usually had somewhere between 6-10 people in attendance with a maximum of 4-5 cars parked alongside the church building to accommodate them. As I pulled up to the church on this particular night, I ...read more

    Easter is all about "accounting". When most people think about going to heaven, they count their good deeds... but God doesn't do it that way. How do we prepare ourselves for standing before the one to Whom we must give an accounting?

    OPEN: There’s been a story in the news recently about the US Dept. of Housing and Urban Development, otherwise known as HUD. Apparently HUD has had a problem balancing their books. It seems their books were off about (PAUSE) $516 BILLION dollars. Now that’s not an error of a few 100,000 dollars… or ...read more

     | 472 views

    The principle of “No one is good but God alone

    Jesus knew He was God and said so: He was accused of being God at his trial.

To illustrate: In the TV show, Undercover Boss, a ...read more

    It’s become fashionable for churches to "target" a specific audience in their messages and ministry. But is that really such a good idea? Is it possible that in targeting specific groups we might be undermining our real ministry?

Hannah, age 9 - "When your dad is mad and asks you, ’Do I look stupid?’ don’t answer." Taylia, age 11 - "When your mom is mad at your dad, don’t let her brush ...read more
