     | 10,773 views

    A Communion Meditation for the first Sunday in Lent. After Baptism, Jesus was compelled to deal with a wilderness situation. What is our wilderness? Jesus was helped by angels. Can we help others in their wilderness times?

    Background: I read about Boy Scouts preparing for a backpacking trip to a wilderness area—I think it was Alaska. The scout leader told them to pare down their packs as much as possible. Then he told them to open their sleeping bags, and lay everything out and remove any other extra items. ...read more

     | 5,494 views

    The title, “Dancing at the Door” is based on the premise that no matter what the door of the situation is I walk through, God is in control. Therefore, I can dance in worship to the Lord in complete confidence.

    In Sunday school we get the condensed version of the Ten Commandments but they can be read expansively, so that you are challenged to consider how the commandment may apply to all sorts of real life situations.

    The God Who Commands Exodus 20:1-17 October 5, 2014 Rev. David J. Clark The Israelites had been wandering in the desert for a long time. They were learning what it means to really trust God but that trust was hard learned. There was a definite pattern: at the first hint of adversity they turned ...read more

     | 8,874 views

    Jesus rode into Jerusalem on this day was unique. It was a divine sign of His triumph, in at least 3 ways: His triumph over self, His triumph over situation, and His triumph over Satan.

    Today marks the beginning of what we called the Passion Week, the week that Jesus was arrested, judged, tortured, and crucified and then rose from the dead. • It is the most significant week of the Christian calendar. • The Gospel writers - Matthew, Mark and Luke, devoted a full third of their ...read more

    This is an introductory sermon to a series on First Peter. In this sermon, we get reacquainted with the man who wrote it, the people to whom he sent it, and the particular situation that prompted him to write it.

    Introduction: A. Maybe you’ve heard the statement: “Where there’s life, there’s hope!” 1. Like most sayings, it has an element of truth, but no guarantee of certainty. 2. It is not the fact of life and determines hope, rather it is the faith of life that determines ...read more

    Lesson 12: Don't Panic Part 1 - Marriage & Divorce Series

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Dec 6, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,625 views

    There are many misunderstandings about Paul's words on marriage and divorce. Looking at them in the context of the situation they were written in, and context of our purpose as redeemed humans offers us some real wisdom.

    Beginning in chapter 7, Paul begins to address specific questions the Corinthians had sent him regarding marriage, eating meat sacrificed to idols, worship, the Lord's supper and the resurrection. First he addresses a question about marriage. If you look at the chapter as a whole the context might ...read more

    Jesus, who has power over life and death, has compassion on us, too, no matter what our situation in life. God has visited His people, and visits us still.

    A VISITATION BY GOD, AND THE COMPASSION OF JESUS. Luke 7:11-17. It is interesting to compare this incident with that in the immediately preceding passage. In Luke 7:1-10 a Roman centurion pleaded with Jesus on behalf of his bondman, who otherwise had no voice, and no rights. The centurion, ...read more

    The inclusion of Tamar in the genealogy of Jesus demonstrates that, even when we find ourselves in a sinful situation because of our desperation, God is still willing to include us into His family line.

     | 46,643 views

    I prepared this sermon for use in the case of a late term still birth. It can be modified slightly to fit any infant memorial service. These are difficult situations. Much prayer and compassion and humility are advised.

    Parker’s Memorial Message I wonder if perhaps… In fact, this thought has brought a great deal of comfort to me this week… I wonder if recently an angel in heaven opened the book of life and seeing Parker’s name printed within, said “This one is too beautiful to see ...read more
