    based on 3 ratings
     | 79 views

    We are created in God’s image, marred by sin, yet through Christ we are renewed to reflect His likeness, dignity, and purpose.

    Friend, before we begin, let me speak a word over your heart: you are seen by God, shaped by God, stamped with the likeness of God. The One who paints sunsets with colors that refuse to quit also formed you with care that refuses to fail. Have you ever stood before a mirror and wondered, Who am I, ...read more

    God sees our weariness, meets us in our weakness, and renews our strength as we trust and wait on Him, never forgotten or alone.

    Friend, if you’ve ever stared at the ceiling at 2 a.m. and whispered, “Lord, did You see that? Do You know how tired I am?”—you are in good company today. If your heart feels heavy, your hands feel weak, and your hope feels thin, you are exactly where Isaiah 40 meets you. This passage is a warm ...read more

    The sermon urges us to surrender judgment, embrace mercy, and let God transform our critical spirit into kindness and grace toward others.

    Some of us carried a quiet critic into church today. He rode in the car with us, sat beside us during worship, and has opinions about everything from traffic to the tempo of the first song. He’s subtle—civil even—but he speaks in sighs, shrugs, and silent scores. We know his voice: the whisper that ...read more

     | 28 views

    The sermon calls us to abandon empty rituals and idols, turning instead to wholehearted worship of the living God who alone gives true life and meaning.

    Welcome, friend. Pull up a chair in your heart for a few quiet minutes. Imagine the sound of pages turning, the scent of a well-worn Bible, the gentle hush that settles when God’s people lean in to listen. Some weeks feel hurried, don’t they? Calendars packed, habits humming, and before we know it, ...read more

     | 36 views

    This sermon urges believers to move beyond empty words to genuine, costly obedience, allowing God to rekindle authentic faith and wholehearted devotion in their lives.

    Welcome, dear friends. I’m so glad you’re here. Some of us walked in this morning with hearts blazing hot; others with barely a flicker. If faith were a fireplace, some of us are warming our hands, and others are cupping the last little coal, begging it to glow again. Life can be like that. A long ...read more

    There were among the Gentiles wise philosophers who considered the Gospel foolishness; and although the apostle, with tongue in cheek, had called the Gospel ministry the foolishness of preaching, and the foolishness of God, and even though he had . . .

    During his life, John wrote the Gospel of John and the first, second, and third books of John and the book of Revelation. Near the end of his life, it is said that he constantly repeated the phrase, "Little children, love one another!"

    QUESTION: What is the history of John, the disciple of Jesus? ANSWER: To learn the history of John, the disciple of Jesus, we begin with his life before he met Jesus. John, his brother James, Peter, and Andrew were all partners in the fishing business before becoming disciples of Jesus. John was ...read more

    Jesus died for our sins and His death and resurrection have set us free.

    "...For The Sins Of The World!" 1 John 2:1-2 The passion of every follower of Jesus should be to absolutely turn away from every act, thought, and attitude that grieves the heart of Almighty God as if they were a den of poisonous snakes ready to strike at any moment.

    based on 56 ratings
     | 28,866 views

    When we walk alongside those who are weary or wiped out, we’re acting like Jesus did. If we truly care for others, we’ll care enough to confront sin and carry burdens.

    Carry Each Other’s Burdens I’ve not watched a lot of the American Idol TV show, but I’ve seen enough to know that Simon Cowell, one of the talent judges, enjoys tearing down the talentless. Here are some of his cutting comments: “If you lived 2,000 years ago and sang like that, they would have ...read more

     | 22,098 views

    The gospel has a powerful impact on those who are receptive. Believers are to joyfully share their faith with others – before it’s too late.

    Marks of a Healthy Church After the sermon last week, someone came up to me and asked me a question: “If First Thessalonians is one of the shortest and easiest books to understand, why are you taking 14 weeks to preach through it?” I told him that he should be glad I’m not preaching through the ...read more

    A Model Worth Following Series

    based on 7 ratings
     | 9,395 views

    Paul and his team authentically modeled the message, focusing on the praise of God, not men. We must do the same and be as gentle as a mother and as firm as a father with those we are hoping to influence.

    Contributed by David Dykes on Apr 4, 2003
    based on 254 ratings
     | 112,505 views

    This in-depth view of Prodigal Son parable focuses on the elder son and the bitterness and resentment he displayed upon his brother’s return and how we sometimes have the same inflated sense of goodness and faulty understanding of our Father’s grace.

    The Parable of the Pouting Son Luke 15:25-32 by David O. Dykes INTRODUCTION Over the last three weeks we have been looking at what has been called the Parable of the Prodigal Son. In this masterpiece, Jesus communicates several lessons. I believe the main point of this story is to show us what ...read more

    The Supreme Question Of Life Series

    Contributed by Brian Bill on Apr 15, 2003
    based on 405 ratings
     | 116,847 views

    Many scholars believe this passage was based on a hymn that was sung by the early church. We all need to answer the question: Is Christ prominent in my life, or is He preeminent? He doesn’t just want a place in our lives, He demands first place.

    The Supreme Question of Life In Thursday’s Washington Post, an article appeared about a new church in the state of Maryland. I won’t reveal the name of the denomination that is behind this endeavor because I don’t want to publicly criticize it from the pulpit. You can look it up when this sermon ...read more

    There is a great difference between light and darkness, not just in the physical world, but also in the spiritual world. This sermon describes what living in the world of spiritual darkness is like and helps the hearers find out why Christians - - who are

    Introduction Brian Warner once said: “Initially I was drawn into the darker side of life. But it’s really just human nature. I started to learn that everything that’s considered a sin is what makes you a human being. All the seven deadly sins are man’s true nature—to be greedy, to be hateful, to ...read more
