    Is It Worth It To Disciple Everybody?

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jun 18, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,582 views

    The death and resurrection of Christ give Him the authority to command us to disciple beyond superficiality, to reach even the marginal, and to have a global scope to our mission.

    Somebody out there has a plan for your life. Somebody has a plan for the world you live in. Time and again I see evidence that there are those who believe that with enough planning, enough energy, and enough work, they will get you into their orbit. They have a plan for your life and for your ...read more

    The Power Of Pentecost- Abundance Is Here

    Contributed by Howard Strickland on Jan 21, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,651 views

    Jesus intended for His disciples to be comforted, and to become confident at the same time. Pentecost is actually God’s kingdom moving in, and taking control.

    The Power of Pentecost- Abundance is Here Text: Acts 2:1-4 Amplified Bible AND WHEN the day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all assembled together in one place, 2When suddenly there came a sound from heaven like the rushing of a violent tempest blast, and it filled the whole house in ...read more

    What Is Church?

    Contributed by Greg Nance on May 3, 2011
     | 6,346 views

    This may be one of the most misunderstood concepts in the Christian faith. A look into the word of God in Matthew brings to light the amazing calling that Jesus intends for us.

    What is Church? Listen to Matthew 16:13-28. Pay attention to how Jesus describes "Church," his path, and our relationship with Him. Matthew 16:18 gives us the first mention of the English word “church” in the New Testament. In all of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John this word “church” only occurs ...read more

    Third in a series on the reliability of the Bible, this messages deals with the debate about Bible translations. If the words of Scripture mattered to Jesus, they should matter to us.

    Only God Can Forgive Sins Series

    Contributed by Vic Folkert on Apr 2, 2007
    based on 5 ratings
     | 5,211 views

    Is forgiveness of sins the greatest need of a paralyzed man? Yes! It’s our greatest need too, and the greatest need of others we know. Since only God can forgive sins against him, Jesus claimed the authority of God.

    ONLY GOD CAN FORGIVE SINS—Mark 1:1-12 ***It was a Sunday morning, and light was just beginning to dawn. I got up and went to the bathroom, and promptly fainted. When I came around, I panicked, because I felt a tingling in my arm, a marker for a stroke. My wife called 911, and after a couple of ...read more

    Who Is This Jesus?

    Contributed by Terry Barnhill on Feb 3, 2009
     | 3,975 views

    To this day people still have difficulty defining who God is, and if Jesus was God incarnate, then who is Jesus?

    Patrick Morley wrote, “The turning point in our lives is when we stop seeking the God we want and start seeking the God who is.” (quote from SermonCentral.com) In the person of Jesus Christ, God came to earth to live among us in the person of His only begotten Son. Yet, even to this day people ...read more

    The Name We Claim Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,657 views

    Early believers were able to face opposition and tribulation because they focused upon their identity, following Jesus. What is our identity?

    Sometimes, we get suckered in by the idea that identity and relationship are not important. We buy into Shakespeare’s rhetorical question and answer from Act II, Scene II of Romeo and Juliet: What is in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. We ...read more

     | 6,349 views

    This event in the life of the early church gives us guidance in how to pray with power.

    As I’ve probably shared with you once before, I was tremendously challenged by a conversational exchange in a short-lived situation comedy. It was a comedy where the late Danny Thomas played a doctor. There was a scene in “The Practice” where a nurse overhears Thomas’ character praying. When she ...read more

    Legends are based on what people want to believe. The power and ministry of the church in the authority of Jesus is the real thing.

    Health Care Plan James 5:14-15 8-09-09 Intro I want to address a subject that seems to be on a lot of people’s minds these days—health care.
