"sit Down! You’re Rocking The Boat!"

Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 26, 2022

The world tells us they don't want us "rocking the boat," but that's exactly what they need. The success of the Early Church was that they upset the natural order. Only if people are exposed to Jesus will they be saved. We must make that happen!

"SIT DOWN! YOU’RE ROCKING THE BOAT!" INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A young man went fishing with his father and a friend in an open boat. He didn’t have his sea-legs yet. He’d get up and try to walk. He had poor balance, so the boat would see-saw violently. (The boat didn’t have good ...read more

Open Your Mouth Wide And I Will Fill It.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 3, 2022

The finest of wheat, and honey out of the Rock.

OPEN YOUR MOUTH WIDE AND I WILL FILL IT. Psalm 81:1, Psalm 81:10-16. If we allow that the summons to praise (Psalm 81:1) is a call to celebrate the kingship of the LORD, it is because He, and He alone, is God (Psalm 81:9-10; cf. Deuteronomy 6:4-5).

Let Us Sing Unto The Lord.

This is serious worship, with its focus upon who the LORD is (the Rock), and who He is to us (the rock of our salvation).

LET US SING UNTO THE LORD. Psalm 95:1-7a. In days gone by not everybody who gathered in our churches could read, so it was useful to learn things by rote. So when the praise-leader sang “O Come let us sing unto the LORD” (Psalm 95:1), the congregation knew to join in the singing of Psalm 95. ...read more

Kodak, Cookies And Christ

Contributed by Eloy Gonzalez on Jan 17, 2004

Most our homes have a stash of pictures that catalog important events in the lives of our families. Some might have these pictures in photo albums or maybe they’re stashed in shoeboxes.
