    Friendship

    based on 44 ratings
     | 15,356 views

    It has been said that if you have one true friend in your life you are lucky. This morning the Lord is going to teach us about FRIENDSHIP and HOW WE CAN HAVE SOME TRUE FRIENDS!

    Everybody needs true friendship. There is a real hunger for it. The problem is finding the time to create real friends. It takes time and effort to make friends. Many of us settle for the imitation friends we have on the TV. ILL>>>I remember my dad used to talk to “Hunter” when that was a ...read more

    Making Room

    This is the second in an Advent Series. This message deals with those who neglected to notice Mary & Joseph in the inn. Thoughts for the direction of this sermon were greatly influenced by a John MacArthur message "The People Who Missed Christmas".

    Making Room…Luke 2:1-7 Intro: (Read Text) He gets a pretty bum rap for someone we actually don’t even know exists. The Bible doesn’t mention him (or if he existed). Tradition talks a great deal about the fellow – but it’s still all tradition and folk-lore to be historically honest: that “poor ...read more

    All Y'all's Christian Church

    Contributed by Kory Wilcoxson on Feb 19, 2005
    based on 9 ratings
     | 3,475 views

    We are called by God to be in community with each other. We are each a spiritual stone used by God to build the church. There’s no such thing as an individual Christian.

    Imagine a world where coming to church meant risking your life, a world where professing belief in Christ was the same as signing your own death sentence. Although that might be hard for us to comprehend, it is that world that our scripture invites us into this morning. 1 Peter was a letter ...read more

    There is a big difference between taking a Sabbath and being lazy. Lazyness separates us from our own potential, from the love of others, and from the grace of God.

    Are You a Lazybones? Proverbs 6:6-11 February 20, 2005 Twenty three years ago, I was one of seventeen men and women who stood before the Annual Conference and was ordained into the United Methodist ministry.

    There are times in each of our lives when it seems God has all but forgotten us. The story of Moses in the bulrushes is a reminder that God does not forget us, but continues to work for us in ways we may not always imagine.

    A GREAT STORY OF THE OLD TESTAMENT: THE LOVE THAT KEEPS (Moses in the Bulrushes) EXODUS 2:1-10 A mother was putting her little four-year-old daughter to bed for the night. The child was afraid of the dark, and the mother, on this particular occasion, with her husband away, was fearful also. When ...read more

     | 6,323 views

    Part IV of the Four-Part Vision: We look at how God led his people and how He used leaders to lift up a vision among his people. We examine the important questions: Who should lead? and What is important for leaders?

    Text: Jesus called them together. He said, “You know about the rulers of the nations. They hold power over their people. Their high officials order them around. Don’t be like that.

    HOW'S YOUR HEARING? MATTHEW 13:1-9 INTRODUCTION Some know firsthand what it is to have a hearing problem. Those who have one are often required to have a hearing aid. Others choose not to. Losing our hearing or even a part of it is a very serious and aggravating thing. Some have what is termed ...read more
