    Sometimes it is in the most peculiar places that God chooses to reveal His plan for our lives to us. It is through His calling that we find life in a dying world.

    How To Find Life in a Dying World (Part 1, The Call) Text: Exodus 3:1-10 We find life when… 1. God reveals Himself to us It often takes the most peculiar things for God to draw our attention away from the daily grind.

    We all know the woman caught in adultery, or someone like her. That’s fine, until we realise that we too stand in her place.

    Introduction [Start to read the story, stop after the scene is set and the woman has been brought before Jesus.] [I put a picture of a woman on the overhead projector, and I refer to it extensively throughout.] Let’s have a look at this woman [OHP]. What do we know about her? Very little! There ...read more

    Jabez prayed a model prayer that God would bless him, increase his territory, place his hand upon him and keep him from evil.

    “Now Jabez was more honorable than his brothers, and his mother called his name Jabez, saying, ‘Because I bore him in pain.’ And Jabez called on the God of Israel saying, ‘Oh, that You would bless me indeed, and enlarge my territory, that Your hand would be with me, and that You would keep ...read more

    based on 88 ratings
     | 7,673 views

    In this response to the prophetic call of Haggai 1:3-8, the church is called to leave places of comfort and risk loving those in the world who desperately need to be reached.

    The Birdfeeder (Haggai 1:3-8) Robert J. Tennant Greenbrier Baptist Church, October 15, 2000 There once was a man named Jeff. Did you catch that? I said, “There once was a man …”. What does it mean when someone says, “there once was a man”? It means I am telling, ah yes, a parable. This is a ...read more

    Giving God Your All

     | 21,247 views

    The meaning of life for some with a secular mentality are power, popularity and success. For those of faith, they find meaning in life when they place all that they are and have in the Savior’s hands.

    Mark 12:38-44 As he taught, Jesus said, "Watch out for the teachers of the law. They like to walk around in flowing robes and be greeted in the marketplaces, and have the most important seats in the synagogues and the places of honor at banquets. They devour widows’ houses and for a show make ...read more

    One of the things that traps us in our places of emotional and spiritual and relational lameness is that we get to a point where we cannot really imagine life differently.

    Intro: Last Sunday we began our look at the second section of the book of Acts. The first section, chapters 1-2, told the story of the ascension of Jesus and then the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, filling the believers with the power and indwelling presence of God, and now the next two ...read more

    Mass Destruction

    As a part of Gods judgment against a sinful world many natural disastors will take place that will cause much sorrow on earth. Gods intent is for repentence, but will man listen?

    The entire rest of the judgments on earth are contained underneath the seventh seal to the Lamb’s scroll. We are going to see seven trumpets blast, seven plagues, and seven bowls poured out - all under this one seal. After this, God’s judgment of the earth and its king will be complete - but there ...read more

    As Christians we are to be the temple of God - with the Holy Spirit residing in us. What do we place on our tables? Would Jesus be tempted to take out the whip?

    Cleaning Day John 2:12-22 Imagine if you will the most perfect church setting. Perhaps it is Christmas eve – and the sanctuary is decorated beautifully. Very warm and welcoming. This is a special time. Sure, you can come to church any Sunday, but this time is set aside for wondrous events and ...read more

    They were 24 hours that would forever change the world.

    Three Views Of Amazing Grace Series

    Contributed by Terry Rolen on Feb 15, 2007
    based on 34 ratings
     | 10,133 views

    In this sermon we will explore three ways "grace" is used in Romans 5. Grace as a place, grace asthe manner in which God reaches to us, and grace as salvation.

    Three Views of Amazing Grace Romans 5 Grace is a thoroughly biblical concept. More precisely it is thoroughly New Testament concept. And no author of the New Testament uses the word more often, more broadly than Paul. Grace is used just a handful of times in the gospels. But approximately 50 ...read more

    Teaching does not have to be in a formal setting; in fact, the best kind of learning takes place in every day life, when we simply speak spiritual truth.

    As we turn today to Titus 2, the focus, as John MacArthur states, “changes from the pastors to the people, from the elders to everybody, and from the leadership to the laity.” Specifically, Paul’s passion is for people to live out the transforming power of the gospel and not to look like the “same ...read more

    What Does It Mean To "Worship”

     | 3,554 views

    Our Worship of God is deeply rooted in our entire life. If He is first in our lives, everything else, including our corporate worship will fall in place.

    What Does It Mean to “Worship” Text: John 4:19-24 Vines Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words says, “The Worship of God is not clearly defined in the scriptures.” (Page 1247) In the Greek language there are five verbs and three nouns that are translated “Worship.” The first and ...read more

    Why Should Ibecome A Christian

    It would be a terrible thing to live a good life, be a good person and then end up in a terrible place for the rest of eternity. It is not God purpose that any person should be lost.

    Why should I become a Christian? Or, why should I remain a Christian? Rev. 3:21-22 I read an article this morning written by a preacher who really wanted people to become Christians. He came to this conclusion. There are three things that are hard to do. 1. Climb a fence leaning toward you. 2. ...read more
