    Contributed by Richard Futrell on Oct 7, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,395 views

    Jesus confronts every smug and complacent sinner. But Jesus is also speaking to us. For Jesus forces us to ask, “How are we treating God’s vineyard today?”

    Intro There was a beautiful vineyard, its vines bending, laden with the weight of rich, swollen grape clusters. For the owner had planted a good vineyard. He had chosen a vigorous, hardy stock of vine. He had well prepared the soil to guarantee a good harvest. Yes, the vineyard had rich, ...read more

    Why Pray?

     | 6,122 views

    Prayer is our primary means of seeing God work in others’ lives. Because it is our means of “plugging into” God’s power, it is our means of defeating Satan and his army that we are powerless to overcome by ourselves. Therefore, may God find us often befor

    Opening illustration: Three ministers were talking about prayer in general and the appropriate and effective positions for prayer. As they were talking, a telephone repairman was working on the phone system in the background. One minister shared that he felt the key was in the hands. He always ...read more

    "The Merry-Go-Round Of Time"

    Contributed by Paul Ray on Jul 22, 2013
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,836 views

    God's timing is sovereign, sufficient, seasonal, and surprising. God turns extreme calamity into extreme possibility in the pendulum swing from Good Friday to Easter morning. Change comes as an unfolding pattern rather than a mindless swing of events.

    January 20, 2013 “The Merry-Go-Round of Time” Ecclesiastes 3:1-14 Everything that happens in this world happens at the time God chooses. 2 He sets the time for birth and the time for death, the time for planting and the time for pulling up, 3 the time for killing and the time for ...read more

    Faith starts small and grows when we nurture our growth with God's unfailing Grace and Love

    From Small Beginnings… June 18, 2006 Mark 4:26-34 Sometimes things are not as they appear to be. This parable has long been used to describe the amount of faith one would need to be used by God. I want to submit to you today that this story is much more than that. Getting back to the first ...read more

    "This is a fresh approach to this remarkable encounter between a brother trying to get in a place where Jesus is telling him to quickly get away from!"

    In the Gospel of John, there is perhaps one of the most interesting miracles to have ever taken place in the holy writ. In chapter five of his Gospel is the main miracle of the man who had been sitting at the Pool of Bethesda for thirty-eight long years. Allow our creative imagination the ...read more

    We see a lot of movies about ghosts, afterlife, spirits, vampires, underworld creatures. People have a need to fantasize about what happens after we die. Let us see what the bible tells us.

    1 Corinthians 15:26 - The last enemy to be destroyed is death. Death is the last enemy for a number of reasons 1. It is the final thing we will all have to face when we get to the end of our lives 2. It's the last step of our journey on Earth 3. It's our graduation day for the Heavenly life 1. ...read more

     | 7,447 views

    It takes a change of heart as well as a change of mind that we might speak righteously. Yet the difficult task of refining our speaking process is worth the effort, for the righteous use valued words that bring blessings

    THE WORDS OF THE RIGHTEOUS VALUED WORDS PROVERBS 10: 31-32 Words spring from the heart and are then formed by the mind. If the heart is pure, righteous speech should flow out of it. If the heart is wicked it also flows from the mouth. Yet even if the heart is pure it is not a given that ...read more

    Ehud comes from the tribe of ‘Benjamin.’ He’s left handed Benjamin means, “Son of my right hand.” So God chooses “son of my right hand” who is left handed to bring deliverance!

    Dakota Community Church March 11, 2012 Judges – Week Three Ehud In the Book of Judges you will recall there is a repeated cycle throughout the entire book – a cycle of sin, bondage, repentance, and devotion, followed by sin and bondage again.

    Our temptations do not compromise our relationship with the Lord, but brings to the surface God's amazing grace for us in times of need.

    Luke 3:22; Luke 4:1; Luke 4:14 “I can resist anything but temptation,” so boasted Oscar Wilde, Irish dramatist, novelist & poet (1854 - 1900). The story of Oscar Wilde reveals the tragedy of this kind of attitude. Our whole life is bordered by temptations of one sort or another. ...read more

    God calls us to march on through hardships and discouragements.

    I believe the Bible is the most inspiring, encouraging book ever written! I also believe we often miss the fullness of inspiration God desires for us. We miss it partly because we live in a VIDEO world (we would rather watch something than read it). We miss it partly because we live in a very ...read more

    I don't like things that are stale. They taste sour, limp, bitter, etc. Many Christians are stale! They got the Spirit years ago, but none lately. God wants us to have a FRESH experience of the Spirit. He promises us FRESH OIL!

    ANOINTED WITH FRESH OIL Ps. 92:10 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: JUST TO BE SURE 1. Ever since Emma joined her church's choir, she'd been singing in her kitchen while preparing dinner.

    How do we experience real worship and what do we take away from the experience?

    One Sunday a woman came to the pastor and thanked him for the sermon he had preached. He said, "Don't thank me, thank God." She said, "Well, I thought of that, but it wasn't quite that good." Too often we approach the worship service with our eyes on the preacher, the worship leader, the choir, or ...read more
