Sermons on Toy Boat:

Strong And Weak Christians Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 3, 2021

A Christian must be one who is concerned, not just about the truth in a conflict, but about the person he disagrees with, for if he is right about the truth but wrong in his attitude toward his opponent, he is still missing the boat and is out of God's will.

A man wondering in the woods was caught in a bad storm. It was very dark, and the only light he had was from the flashes of lightening which were followed by deafening thunder. He fell to his knees and prayed, "Lord, if it will be all right with you, please give me more light and ...read more

Asking The Right Questions Series

Contributed by David Smith on Aug 7, 2009

When the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they got into these boats and went to Capernaum to look for Jesus. When they had found him on the other side of the sea, they asked him, "Rabbi, when did you get here?" Jesus replied t

A wise person once told me that what you see in life depends on what you are looking at, and that what you hear depends on who you listen to, just as the answers you get depend largely on the questions you ask.

Contributed by Rolando, Jr Pama on Sep 23, 2023

But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.” “Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.” “Come,” he said. Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus.

When You Find Yourself In A Storm

Contributed by Michael Duduit on Mar 3, 2008

Using What You Have SermonCentral

Contributed by SermonCentral on Sep 9, 2023

God can use whatever we offer Him, no matter how insignificant it may seem. In Luke 5:1-11, Jesus uses Peter's old fishing boat and broken net, demonstrating that what matters is not the quality of what we offer, but the willingness to make it available to Him.

God has a ministry for every one of His children, not just the Pastor. Every Christian has a ministry, including you! While not everyone will be a great soul-winner, we all have a part in leading others to Christ. We are all links in the chain, though not all are the last link. Some may have the ...read more

The Wrap And The Woof

Contributed by Samuel Fulkerson on Apr 14, 2013

I have heard it said: “living for God easy is hard; living for God hard is easy.” It is the difference between getting in the boat and setting down and standing on the edge and trying not to fall out. The latter isn’t a question of ‘if’ you fall out, it

A Voice From The Beach

Contributed by Martin Ellgar on Dec 29, 2014

A perspective on John 21: 1-14. Like the disciples in the boat who listened to the voice of a ‘stranger’ from the beach, somehow you too will know at the right time where to ‘cast the net.’ At that time, you too will say with joy, “It is the Lord.”

John 21: 1-14 A Voice From The Beach The Gospel according to John closes with one more miracle given by Jesus. Although it is the final miracle recorded in the Gospel, it is the first of his resurrected life. It happened this way: Some of the disciples of Jesus were sitting about on the shore by ...read more

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Dec 7, 2023

Satan’s wicked schemes – what are they? On this occasion we consider the satanic reaping of children’s impressionable minds; the increase in the occult in various forms; and the murder of the unborn in abortion. We ought to know Satan’s schemes because 2Corinthians 2:11 says we do know them.
