    Paul was converted by Jesus, but he needed Ananias too

    Sometimes a Minister can be too busy - with Church Buildings to care for, and money to raise to run and repair them - with meetings to attend, and an area to minister to, he can be too busy. Too busy for his family, too busy for his Congregation, too busy for God. I say this with feeling, for ...read more

    As the first Christian church described in Acts 2:42-47 was may our churches be.

    If there is one thing of which we have a great number in Tulsa it is churches.

We played two years of college basketball together, and we missed him when he graduated. He was a scrappy and smart player who simply gave his best in the ...read more

    This sermon discusses the 3 methods of communication God has and still uses to communicate with his people.

    The key to any successful relationship is communication. This is true in the case of a marriage, a parent-child, brother-sister, or any other type of relationship. It is also very true of our relationship with God. We need to ensure that our lines of communication are open when it comes to our ...read more

    Jesus teaches us to be good spiritual conversationalists.

    I don’t know if any of you here have noticed, but I’m a talker. I enjoy sitting down and having conversations with people. Now a good conversationalist (not saying that I am) is able to maintain a balance between talking and listening. It’s a two way street. The life of a Christian is one big ...read more

    A sermon for the 2003 World Day of Prayer. The reason the Holy Spirit doesn’t seem to be moving on us at the moment may be that he has to renew us before he can fill us.

    ****Introduction**** It is appropriate that the theme for this year’s World Day of Prayer is, in fact, a prayer. It is a prayer that the Church has been praying since Jesus went home to Heaven. It is a prayer that God has been pleased to answer since that first Pentecost. However, it is a prayer ...read more

    Strength, Wisdom, Strategy, Endurance, Focus, Courage, Toughness... These sound like the description of someone on the television show “Survivor.” But actually they pretty well describe a man we read about in the New Testament. Peter. God worked in Peter’s life in powerful ways. The great news is ...read more
