    We often hear about patience, but we will never understand it until we look at God’s patience toward us.

    1. Introduction a. I was doing my quiet time on Monday morning when I ran across a passage that leapt off the page. It so stirred my spirit, that I felt that the Lord wanted me to preach a sermon series on the subject that the passage spoke about. i. As I researched the subject…the subject of ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 9,095 views

    We presume upon God’s patience and tolerance, but do not understand those characteristics of His love. They are central to knowing Him.

    Opening Joke: Did you hear about the teacher who was helping one of her kindergarten students put his boots on? He asked for help and she could see why. With her pulling and him pushing, the boots still didn’t want to go on. When the second boot was finally on, she had worked up a sweat. She ...read more

    WE AS CHRISTIANS MUST UNDERSTAND THAT WE ARE NOT ONLY CALLED TO CHRISTIANITY BUT TO CONTEND FOR IT AS WELL. WE MUST NEVER BE SILENT BUT SURE AND WILLING.

    Gaining a clear focus on life by understanding who God created us to be so we can develop a burning passion for God.

    I was reading in Psalms/praying about this morning. Psa 43:3 O send out Your light and Your truth, let them lead me; Let them bring me to Your holy hill And to Your dwelling places. NASU As I was reading I turned this verse into a prayer. Bible- must become more than information- Factbook. ...read more

    A look at the foundational importance of understanding the Genesis account of Creation as reliable - illustrated from Jesus’ Words in Matthew 7:15-29.

    I’ve titled my sermon this morning, “Foundations”. The reason for this is that God has impressed on my heart the deep-seated need for this generation of Americans to understand a key difference in how we look at things, how we approach our daily lives and the decisions we make. The foundation ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,831 views

    This is a message focusing on the lordship of Christ. The emphasis was on helping our people understand the invitation to live and participate in the kingdom, or reign, of God today.

    Jesus is Lord Luke 17:20-36 “And milk.” Every morning for the first six years of my education, those two words signaled the end of the day’s announcements and the impending opportunity for each student in the school to rise for the “Pledge of Allegiance.” Every day was the same.

    Abraham knew the character of God so well that he trusted His Promises even when he could not understand them

    Gen 15:1-13 I have always liked the story of Abraham – a heathen whose father was a craftsman of idols in Ur of the Chaldees - and who responded to the call of God in his life And the story in Gen 15 is particularly striking for me – because Gen 15:2 was my baptism verse “I am your ...read more

    based on 10 ratings
     | 5,924 views

    The cross is the centerpiece of history. We should be able to understand and articulate the implications of what happened on Golgotha Hill 2000 years ago.

    TEXT: 1 CORINTHIANS 1:18 TITLE: “THE MEANING OF THE CROSS” OPEN: A. A university student was seen wearing a T-shirt with a large “K” printed on it. Someone asked him what the “K” stood for and he replied, “Confused.” The person who asked ...read more

    Looking at the "O" characteristics of God (omnipresence, omnipotence, omniscience) we can understand the command of God: Ye MUST be born again.

    March 26, 2006 Fourth Sunday in the Season of Lent And just as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so must the Son of Man be lifted up, that whoever believes in him may have eternal life. “For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may ...read more

     | 4,787 views

    We need to understand we are influencing people about God and we need to have a heart like Joshua towards God.

    Until Wednesday afternoon this past week, I really had no idea what God wanted us to focus on this morning, which is pretty rare. It doesn’t take but a few minutes around me to realize that normally I am planned and organized way in advance. When I gave out the Youth Ministry calendars in ...read more

     | 49,587 views

    If Christmas never happened we would never fully understand God and his love for us. Evangelistic message for Christmas Eve.

    I’m guessing most of you have seen the classic Christmas movie, It’s a Wonderful Life with Jimmy Stewart. In the movie, Stewart plays George Bailey who has inherited the Bailey Building and Loan, and survives Black Tuesday in October 1929. Later his absentminded uncle misplaces $8000 and George ...read more

    From understanding gained from the Middle East, we see even more amazingly the measure and wonder of God’s grace

    Dr Bailey lived and worked for more than two decades among isolated peasant communities in the Middle East. He stayed in villages which until 10 or 20 years ago had never seen a motor vehicle; where time and tradition have stood still for centuries, even millennia. As he learned of their ...read more

    Gaining an understanding of the personality, priorities and power of Jesus Christ from his encounter with a Samaritan Woman (as indicated in the Gospel of John).

    Jesus – Face to Face Jesus Talks With a Samaritan Woman People who care about and who are able to make others feel important stand out, because they are a rare commodity.

     | 5,034 views

    Unless we as God’s people have a clear understanding of where we are headed, the probability of a successful journey is severely limited.

    The True Mark of Leadership KJV Prov 29:18 Where there is no vision, the people perish. Although the NKJV is somewhat different, the impact is equally as powerful. Prov 29:18 Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; We have elected pastors with no vision therefore the people ...read more
