    The believer's relationship to their local church depends upon whether they see their church service as the place where they arrive empty and expect to leave full, or arrive full and expect to leave empty.

    Empty Or Full? The Believer’s Relationship To Church by Dr. Andrew Corbett There are some places where it is good to turn up empty and leave full. If you’re a customer, this includes the supermarket, the gas station, or a restaurant. There are other places where it is good to turn up ...read more

    Fifth in this series. The Parable of the Ten Virgins shows that I cannot live on someone else's oil.

    I still remember my first date with Mary. I know that she was really impressed when I picked her up in my banana yellow Ford Pinto, especially since it was the middle of summer and that car had no air conditioning – unless you call rolling down both windows and driving as fast as that car ...read more

    Why did Hannah mourn her childlessness and what did God do for her that we can learn from?

    I ran across a list of different life experiences that can create stress, and amongst all these life experiences creating stress were these: Death of a spouse; Divorce; Being sentenced to Jail; Personal injury or illness; Being fired at work; Retirement; Pregnancy; and a change in financial ...read more

    Christians have been fighting the wrong battle with the wrong weapons and when they get a clue they do not empty their quiver

    This was written in 2017 and it would appear that I was correct. 2 Kings 13:14 Now Elisha was fallen sick of his sickness whereof he died. And Joash the king of Israel came down unto him, and wept over his face, and said, O my father, my father, the chariot of Israel, and the horsemen thereof. ...read more

    You are already hungry since I fed you yesterday. If I fed you every day you’d still be hungry because it is not your body that is hungry but your soul.

    What do you suppose the crowd was thinking, there on the Sea of Galilee, that spring afternoon? They had been following him, watching him heal sick people, hearing him teach, wondering and speculating. A few would drop out, having seen enough, but they’d quickly get replaced by others. Close-knit ...read more

    The story of Elisha and the widow with the pot of oil teaches us a lot about what Jesus did for us and what we are now called upon to do for the Kingdom of God. God wants to fill as many empty vessels as will come to him.

    Empty Vessels Sunday, October 30, 2022 – 10 am In the prophetic times which we live we see so much of the fulfillment of God’s Word all around us. The Spirit of God is moving in the earth to find as many empty vessels as He can that will be willing to be filled with the Oil of Gladness and will ...read more

    If we are all we have, we better hang onto it. But those who are full of God can’t wait to give it away.

    Show me the alley, show me the train, Show me the homeless man who sleeps out in the rain... And I’ll show you a young man with so many reasons why, There but for fortune go you or I, you or I. Show me the whiskey stains on the floor, Show me the drunkard as he stumbles out the door... And I’ll ...read more

    Humanity was created full, fractured by sin, yet through Christ the Living Water, God refills us to reflect His image again.

    Introduction – Just Add Water I bought a can of dehydrated water the other day. The label said, “Just add water.” I stared at it for a while and thought, Now there’s an honest product — empty but hopeful. A can of dehydrated water — an empty container promising to be full if you supply the one ...read more

    If a shut tomb could not hold Jesus in, a shut church cannot keep him out!

    Jesus Among Us John 20:19 - 31 Intro: If I had written the story of the resurrection of Jesus, I would have done it a little differently. When John returned from the empty tomb he would confront Peter and excitedly say, “Peter, I have some good news and I have some bad news!” Peter would have ...read more

    Reflecting on Mary Magdalene’s visit to the tomb, we see her sorrow turn to joy upon seeing the risen Christ.

    April 8, 2012 John 20:10-18 Then the disciples went back to their homes, but Mary stood outside the tomb crying. As she wept, she bent over to look into the tomb and saw two angels in white, seated where Jesus’ body had been, one at the head and the other at the foot. They asked her, “Woman, ...read more

    With every pound of the nail, the leprosy of our sins disappeared. With every drop of his blood our spirits became whiter and cleaner and brighter. When He walked away from the empty tomb we were spiritually new creations with hearts and souls as pure and clean as the day that we were born, amen?

    Hello … my name is Joram. I was born and raised in the sleepy little Samaritan town of Shiloh. Never heard of it? I’m not surprised. It’s about a 100 miles south of nowhere. The only people who know about Shiloh are the people like me who live there or the occasional stranger who is lost or ...read more

    The resurrection of Jesus Christ has the power to transform our lives in ways that are difficult to put into words. It's an experience that is better felt than explained. Just like the disciples who had to see the empty tomb for themselves, we too can experience the hope and transformation that comes from Jesus being alive.

    Hey guys, Happy Easter! Today we're talking about something epic, something that changed the world forever - the resurrection of Jesus Christ. It's like that moment when Michael Jordan made that insane shot in 1989, winning the game for the Chicago Bulls. It was a moment that defied gravity and ...read more

    This was a creative way we presented the Easter Story. We looked at the ways that Easter Jesus is better than Christmas Jesus and then decorated the auditorium half as Easter and half as Christmas. It worked very well.This post is Part Two of Top Ten Reasons.

    During Easter 2019, I preached a creative message on Good Friday and Easter Sunday looking at the The Top Ten Reasons why Easter Jesus is better than Christmas Jesus. Now I understand that Christmas and Easter Jesus are the same Jesus…but the point I am trying to make is that the world is more ...read more

    "He is not here; for He is risen, as He said." This statement confirms the fulfilment of Christ’s promise and the triumph of life over death. The resurrection was not just for Jesus—it was for all who believe in Him.

    Easter. Have no fear, "The Lost Tomb of Jesus" documentary reinforces the resurrection of Jesus. The resurrection of Jesus is real, factual, effective. (this is short and is a summary, not a full argument)

    Note: We had a full easter musical, so this is a short sumary on the topic. For full details, google the names mentioned. If you have taken a tour of the Holy Land one of the site you probably visited is the garden tomb of Jesus. Who has been there? It is pretty fantastic isn’t it? It really is ...read more
