    Those Feet Jesus Washed

    Contributed by Bradley Berglund on Apr 6, 2013
     | 6,641 views

    In spite of knowing what these disciples would do within hours, Jesus washed their feet and commanded them to follow His example: no excuse is acceptable.

    This story is significant because of its timing – Jesus was preparing for Calvary * Hours before His betrayal – * He was leaving those whom He loved dearly * Critical messages – often last minute orders WHAT IS FOOT WASHING? A Cultural Necessity: * Necessary because of the foot ...read more

    Bathsheba is probably one of the least likely people you ever thought of as a good example for mothers, but it is time you heard the rest of her story.

    Bathsheba, a Mother to Model This Mother’s Day I have chosen someone very different to speak on. In fact, in my research I have not found anyone who has ever chosen to use Bathsheba as an example for Mother’s Day, for some reason we are able to grant David forgiveness and restoration, but ...read more

    The Storms Of Life Series

     | 21,840 views

    As Paul goes through the storm in Acts 27 he is an example of who to go through the storm properly and how to be a blessing to others during the storm.

    Illustration: Test pilots have a litmus test for evaluating problems. When something goes wrong, they ask, "Is this thing still flying?" If the answer is yes, then there’s no immediate danger, no need to overreact. When Apollo 12 took off, the spacecraft was hit by lightning. The entire ...read more

    When Jesus washed his disciple's feet he performed an act of the utmost humility. In doing so he set an example for us to follow.

    AIM HIGH BY BENDING LOW John 13:1-17 INTRODUCTION: John of all the gospels has the longest account of the Last Supper. We owe him for many of the details of what went on in that upper room. First of which is what we’ll be looking at today as we see a great act of humility performed by our ...read more

    Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God. Saint Francis was a man of God and a man of peace. His life is a wonderful example for us all.

    “Lord, use me as an instrument of your peace; Where there is hatred, let me sow your love; Where there is injury pardon; Where there is doubt keep strong my faith; When in my life I face despair O Lord, my faith but comes from hope, in sadness there is joy found in You” This beautiful ...read more

     | 54,754 views

    Eliezer was a good and faithful steward for his master, Abraham. We need to follow his example in being good stewards of the manifold grace of God.

    Not many people know Eliezer of Damascus. He is not one of the most prominent of Bible characters. However, this man played a major role in the life of Abraham. In Genesis 15:2, Eliezer is identified as the steward of Abraham. A steward is a person that is responsible for managing the property ...read more

    Samuel was a "father figure" to Israel and many of the traits he exhibited here in chapter 12 give us examples of what good fathers do.

    ILLUS: One father had a three-year-old daughter who was having trouble sleeping through the night. She’d often wake up several times in the night because she was afraid. Each time as he re-tucked her into bed, he would remind her that Jesus was with her and he would keep her safe. Several ...read more

    Elijah is an amazing example of what happens when believers pray with authority, when they come to God and ask him to do something that glorifies him.

    Have you ever been in a spiritual battle where you thought that you were on the losing side? Well, you’re not alone. The Bible is full of stories of God’s people and their struggle with spiritual battles. Often they thought that God had abandoned them, when in reality he was always with ...read more

    We seem to be living in a world full of Icantitus. Everywhere we look we see people that are so caught up in this disease of Icantitus that it’s just pitiful. You know what I’m talking about. I can’t because I don’t have enough money, I can’t because I’ve just ...read more
