    Picture This! Weeds Series

    Contributed by John Braland on Apr 3, 2007
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,304 views

    Weeds come in all kinds of shapes and sizes. Some of them flower and look absolutely beautiful and others will poke you and make you bleed. Some weeds are hard to identify as tender shoots but as they age their identity will become clear. Jesus kne

    Last summer my daughters Katie and Sara asked if they could take our dogs Shadow and Reba for a walk. Now Shadow is a black lab and he needs to walk because he has a bit of a weight problem. Reba is 12 and is deaf but always willing to take a spin. I live on a gravel road that is surrounded by ...read more

    Contributed by David Scudder on Aug 20, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,184 views

    How can we spot a religious impostor? What does God think of shallow religion?

    Avoiding Imposters II Timothy 3:5-9 Purpose: To describe what false teachers look like. Aim: I want the listener to be alert to false teaching and turn away from it. INTRODUCTION: Sunflowers are fascinating. These large flowers actually follow the sun from sunrise to sunset. I remember seeing a ...read more

    The High Cost Of Discipleship Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Nov 25, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,135 views

    In this message we look at 5 snapshots/pictures of the church. These snapshots help the listener see the NT church as it is intended to be.

    “The High Cost of Discipleship” Luke 14:25-35 I think that one of the most deceptive things we see in our world today are ads that tell us one thing but when we look closer there is a lot they are not telling us. Ads for cars are notorious for this. You’ve seen them. They advertise a car at one ...read more

    Contributed by Derek Melanson on Nov 17, 2006
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,159 views

    As followers of Jesus, we should expect to face opposition, but we can trust that God has "cut the cords of the wicked."

    Introduction Pastor Eugene Peterson tells a story from his childhood—a story about having to deal with enemies. For him it came in the form a school bully who beat him up every day after school. It seemed no matter how young Eugene tried to avoid him—in the forms of alternate routes and ...read more

    Defend Discipleship Against Division Series

    Contributed by Luskey Green on Oct 1, 2006
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,841 views

    Defending discipleship against division caused by loyalty to a human persona creates an ongoing allegiance to our Master and Lord.

    Introduction Today, we tread troubled waters. We may ‘strain at the oars’ so to speak. Pride will be confronted today. It may even be a little painful. Believe me when I say to you, “This is necessary; to be the real deal, to be genuine and authentic, to become the group of disciples which is the ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,281 views

    The Jews were very troubled with grace, because they needed laws to follow; particularly as the message of the New Testament suggested that they were above the law. They were very confused just like many Christians today. So let us put Grace into context.

    Word Count: 2347 Ecclesiastics 15:15-20 1 Corinthians 3:1-9 Matthew 5:21-37 Psalm 119:1-8 Prayer: In the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit; let these words bring honour to you. Amen. Summary: The Jews were very troubled with grace, because they needed laws to follow; particularly as ...read more

     | 4,603 views

    The Gifts of God the Father at Christmas surely give us reason to wish others a "Merry Christmas".

    The Father’s Gifts at Christmas: The Visit Luke 1:67-75 When we receive “good news” we love to share it, especially when it comes to children and family. Because of Zacharias’ disbelief upon the news that his aged wife would have a child, Zacharias ability to speak was ...read more

    God's Fools

    based on 5 ratings
     | 13,088 views

    In Paul's letter to the Corinthian believers, he reminds them that the philosophy that they brought with them into the church was no longer the philosophy that they were to live by. There was wisdom in the cross.

    God’s Fools 1 Corinthians 1:18-25 (NLT) Intro: There is a story about a little girl who proudly wore a shiny cross on a chain around her neck. One day she was approached by a man who said to her, “Little girl, don’t you know that the cross Jesus died on wasn’t beautiful ...read more

    Doomsday Preppers

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,975 views

    This sermon reflects on what the John the Baptist says about Christ's coming and how we should prepare, and what Jesus says about when the end of the world will occur.

    Well, according to my count, we have about 12 days left until the world ends. Unless you’ve been living in a cave, you’ve probably heard all about the Mayan calendar and how some say it predicts the world will end on December 21, 2012. Apparently, a stone tablet discovered in the ...read more

     | 11,652 views

    How can we develop a passion for God?

    Passion For God Matt. 22:37 A lawyer once asked Jesus what was the greatest commandment. I believe that Jesus' answer probably shocked him. See, the Pharisees had over 300 commandments that they had made up. They had gotten so caught up in the law, in keeping the law that they had forgotten what ...read more

    Contributed by Douglas Phillips on Sep 14, 2015
     | 2,873 views

    This is a Bible Study on some of the different ways the Church can withdraw from a missional focus and develop into a closed group of believers.

    THE TEMPTATION TO ASCETICISM MATTHEW 17:1-9 LET’S BEGIN BY A DEFINITION OF WHAT ASCETICISM IS. NOUN 1. THE MANNER OF LIFE, PRACTICES, OR PRINCIPLES OF AN ASCETIC. 2. THE DOCTRINE THAT A PERSON CAN ATTAIN A HIGH SPIRITUAL AND MORAL STATE BY PRACTICING SELF-DENIAL, SELF-MORTIFICATION, AND ...read more

    "Turning Points"

    based on 4 ratings
     | 15,426 views

    God uses the shepherd’s staff here for a very simple reason. Moses was holding one in his hand. He says to Moses what’s that in your hand? What do you have that God can use?

    “Turning Points” Exodus 4:1-17 I will start with a question this morning…..why is that we think that when it comes to things that God wants us to do in the church for Him that we are suddenly full of excuses…excuses that would never work somewhere else. People quit ...read more

    Praying For Others Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Nov 13, 2011
    based on 55 ratings
     | 38,612 views

    Sometimes we wonder how to pray for missionaries and other leaders we have never met. Paul had never met the Colossians, but he faithfully prayed for them. His prayers teach us how to pray for others, whether we know them or not.

    COLOSSIANS 1: 9-12 PRAYING FOR OTHERS [Ezekiel 22:30] Every Christian can minister directly to the spiritual well-being of other believers without seeing or speaking to them. We can play a role in their spiritual growth, and even secure God's blessings for them. Intercessory pray accomplishes ...read more
