    From Death To Life Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 28, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 13,004 views

    There's a repetitive theme in Scripture: heroes and heroines of the Bible seemingly all go through the process of being given a vision by God, followed by the death of that vision, and ultimately the rebirth of that vision. How did that pattern apply to Jesus and how does it apply to us?

    OPEN: (We showed the image of a fallen tree (https://imgur.com/iP32qff) I saw this picture on the internet about a month ago and it took me a while to realize what I was looking at. Obviously the tree has been uprooted and it’s lying on the ground with its dead limbs extending along the ground. But ...read more

     | 88 views

    The book of Ruth is a quiet story tucked into the Old Testament—a story without thunder, earthquakes, or kings. Yet in this small, domestic narrative we find one of the most powerful pictures of God’s grace and redemption.

    REDEEMING GRACE TEXT: Ruth 4:1-12 Introduction 1. "Certainly, we should be very active in seeking God, and Jesus himself called us to 'ask, seek, knock' in order to find him. Yet those who enter a relationship with God inevitably look back and recognize that God's grace had sought ...read more

    Sermon for Resurrection Sunday that explains why the resurrection is so important.

    The Reality of the Resurrection By Kenny McKinley Text: Multiple Scriptures (Read Matt. 28:5-6) Christianity stands or falls on the reality of the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

    It is not noted why Thomas was not there, but one thing we should note that his absence caused him to miss out on what Jesus was ready for them to do. In fact had you ever missed a service, and everyone that was there would tell about the good time they h

    Weeds In My Garden

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jul 8, 2003
    based on 44 ratings
     | 11,555 views

    The arrest of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane shows us what sin is like: it is ordinary, it is out of place, it is pervasive. Jesus is the master gardener who can eradicate our "weeds".

    No gardener wants weeds in his garden. But every gardener has them. Weeds are inevitable. Weeds cannot be avoided. So the question is, what will the gardener do to rid his garden of the weeds? I love to walk around other people’s gardens. In other people’s gardens I don’t feel guilty about ...read more

    Our salvation has been secured by Jesus rising from the dead, we receive salvation daily, and we will receive our full inheritance as the children of God in the fullness of time.

    We know the story well, but it is so good it must be told again! It seemed death had won. It seemed hope was gone. It seemed the dream had died. It seemed that evil had triumphed, and that perhaps Jesus was not who we believed Him to be. Maybe He wasn’t the Messiah. Maybe He ...read more

    The dark road to the Cross was full of rejection and pain, but and Jesus emerged on the other side of the cross into the brilliance of resurrection life! This road is also the pattern for every disciple.

    On Easter Morning, we put ourselves in a kind of spiritual “angel gear.” We turn off all our mechanistic doubts. We refuse to put the brakes on the faith. We cling to the steering wheel of Easter.
