    In the body of Christ, God does not show favoritism and He expects you to do welcome those who would be welcomed by Him. Every person does matter to God.

When the time came, he walked down the aisle and knelt at the altar. A rustle of shock ...read more

    (I went over to the thermostat on the wall that we have on stage) Over here on the wall we have a box. I look closely here and I see a number. It says “70”. What does that mean? That’s right – it means that that’s the temperature here on stage. Now is that ...read more

    40th in a series on Ephesians. We grieve the Holy Spirit when we harm the unity of the body of Christ.

    Last week after the message, someone came up to me and said, “Those were some really good jokes in your sermon today.” But when I asked them about the main idea of the message they couldn’t remember a thing. So this morning, you’re going to get just a plain old boring message without any jokes. I ...read more

    based on 20 ratings
     | 7,416 views

    Preached in a church of another denomination for Christian Unity Sunday and Martin Luther King Sunday: we tend to hide our own history and to conceal our witness. But God calls us into a wider ministry.

    I’m not sure how it is among Methodists, but we Baptist folks have a strange custom of hiding when we come to church. We hide. We try to get in and get out without being noticed. I don’t know whether Methodists are infected with this disease, but with Baptists it is an epidemic. We hide. ...read more

    We are to be Christ at work in the world today.

    In Acts 10:38, Peter described the life of Jesus by saying, “He went about doing good . . .” If one described the life of too many Christians today, however, he would have to say, “He simply went about!” This isn’t as it should be, for the Bible says we are sent into this world, even as Jesus had ...read more

    There is no organization more powerful than the Church—it is ordained in Christ and for His glory.

    Each week at the meeting of a local Rotary club, a different member gave a brief statement about his job.

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Feb 13, 2011
    based on 5 ratings
     | 15,297 views

    Finding your place in the body of Christ is made difficult by the very nature of the spiritual gifts. People with upfront or flamboyant kinds of ministries can make the rest of us feel insignificant, like we are not contributing or maybe just aren't a par

    As humans we like two things: to impress and be impressive. That was one of the main problems the Corinthians faced in many areas including spiritual gifts. The more flamboyant the gift, the more impressive the show of the Spirit, the better. So in chapters 12 through 14 Paul corrects this ...read more
