  • How To Handle The Unexpected Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Dec 18, 2018
     | 9,691 views

    Mary serves as an example of how to handle life when life doesn't go as expected--a great example. We all experience this sort of thing, and we find out--life doens't go as expected all the time. How would God have us respond?

    The Divine Advent(ure) How to Handle the Unexpected Luke 1:26-56 Have you ever noticed how life never seems to going exactly, or sometimes, even close to your plans? One of my favorite quotes is this one, apparently from an unbeliever: “Life is what happens when you’re making other plans.” And ...read more

    A look at the Unexpected Journey that God sent David on.

    7 But the LORD said to Samuel, “Do not consider his appearance or his height, for I have rejected him. The LORD does not look at the things people look at.

  • God Uses The Unexpected

    Contributed by Boomer Phillips on Mar 6, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,569 views

    Many times those who are underestimated and considered failures go on to accomplish great things in society. The same principle is true in the kingdom. The Lord oftentimes uses people who are rejected to bring glory to His name.

    Once we are saved by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, and as we come to know the Lord by spending time with Him, we will reach a point in our life where our love will overflow in a desire for service. It’s at this place that many believers come to a screeching halt. They look at themselves ...read more

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Feb 15, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 17,209 views

    Hope in God, even when He is not doing anything. Trust in God, even when you do not understand His way. Worship God by holding on to what you know about Him.

    We hardly hear a sermon preached on Habakkuk, which has only 3 chapters, but we do have some popular verses from this book – • 2:4 “The righteous will live by his faith” (quoted a few times in NT), • 2:20 “The Lord is in His holy temple; let all the earth be ...read more

  • Gifts In Unexpected Boxes

    Contributed by Jack Russell on Feb 9, 2019
     | 2,375 views

    Forrest Gump's mother said: "life is like a box of chocolates. You never know what you're going to get." Sometimes you don't even get what the box says is in it.

    Great Gifts in Unexpected Boxes A Christmas Meditation I like to buy my wife extravagant gifts for Christmas…like socks. You might laugh, but I’m not talking just any socks. I’m talking heavy winter socks, thick socks. You know, the kind where a single sock can block a dryer vent. Besides ...read more

  • "Expect The Unexpected This Christmas”

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Jan 2, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,029 views

    As some of said, “If we expect to hear the Christmas gospel without the Advent call to repentance, we will find ourselves surprised by John and unprepared for Jesus.” So, we ask the Holy Spirit to open our hearts to the message and ministry of both John and Jesus.

    “It wasn’t what I expected.” Whether you are young or old, a man or woman, a girl or a boy, you have probably experienced something that caused you to have that reaction. Perhaps it was connected to some food that you tried. You were feeling a little adventurous and you ordered something at a ...read more

  • Gideon - An Unexpected Hero Series

    based on 191 ratings
     | 22,104 views

    Gideon wasn’t a natural hero, but God used him to save his people. God often uses ordinary people to do extraordinary things

    Gideon isn’t exactly your Hollywood image of a hero is he? In fact he’s the exact opposite. He’s much more the indecisive, timid type. He’s one of those people who want every i dotted and every t crossed before they make a decision and even then they won’t be able to make up their mind. You can see ...read more
