    The Scrooge In All Of Us

    Contributed by Jeffery Russell on Dec 17, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,209 views

    I have adapted a recent J. John’s sermon, using Scripture to compare Herod and our own sinful tendencies with the Dickens’ character Ebenezer Scrooge.

    The Scrooge in All of Us Matthew 2:13-18 Christmas is one of those times that almost demands that we be creative with the familiar- the story of Bethlehem, and the baby Jesus in a manger. The angels we have heard on high. You might feel that you are familiar with the story that you ...read more

    Jesse is the envy of all the young men in his senior class; he is tall, handsome and naturally gets good grades. He lettered in three varsity sports and still seems to have time to be the president of his church youth group and help out at the local nursing home. He sings first tenor in the a ...read more

    This sermon reflects on God’s power to harden the hearts of the Israelites, and how God wants us to respond in light of such judgment.

    November 27, 2005 Isaiah 63:16-17 , 64:1-8 You, O LORD, are our Father, our Redeemer from of old is your name. Why, O LORD, do you make us wander from your ways and harden our hearts so we do not revere you? Return for the sake of your servants, the tribes that are your inheritance. 1 Oh, ...read more

    Our time is God’s not our own and we need to prioritize our time according to God’s priorities.

    Illustration: Imagine you were given $86,400 at the beginning of every day. You wake up in the morning and look in your checking account, and your balance reflects an increase of $86,400. There is only one catch, you have to use every single dollar that day, if you don’t spend it, you lose it. ...read more

    A Day Of Personal Testimony

    Contributed by Bruce Ball on Feb 12, 2007
    based on 28 ratings
     | 4,404 views

    A sermon about the need for more personal testimonies, and the need for more involvement on behalf of Christians, both in and out of church, to tell others. This precedes our STEP 3 class, which will help us to understand our Spiritual Gift(s).

    In JOHN 19:34 it tells us that, as Jesus hung on the cross, a guard pierced His side. In JOHN 19:35, it says that the one who loved him saw it personally and knows it is true. It says he testifies "SO THAT YOU ALSO MAY BELIEVE." Going over to ISAIAH 43:10, it tells us - ‘You are my witnesses, ...read more

    introductory sermon to a series on the life of Joseph. Most of the sermon content was inspired from Chuck Swindolls "Joseph" book.

    Jokingly they said; “I don’t get mad pastor, I just get even.” Sadly enough that little phrase that we used to laugh at has become more of a reality than we want to accept. How else can we explain so many lawsuits, road rage or the explosive reaction by those who feel they have been ...read more

    We are living in difficult times; we are living in prophetic times. All we have to do is examine the word of God and realize the signs are being given.

    The truth is that nowadays we can’t watch television or listen to the radio without hearing mention of distant wars and disasters. We are living in difficult times; we are living in prophetic times. All we have to do is examine the word of God and realize the signs are being given. As I said, we ...read more

    The Case For The Resurrection

    Contributed by Austin Mansfield on Jun 3, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 4,644 views

    The evidence for the resurrection is overwhelming. And it’s so important to our faith. If God the Father can’t raise his own sinless Son then he can’t raise us either. But the resurrection is true. And we can prove it beyond any doubt.

    SERMON: The Case for Resurrection (Psalm 19:14) May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable to you, Lord, my rock and my redeemer. Amen. In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Two school children were walking together, and one said to the ...read more

    The road ahead is about to get rocky, but, we have reason for hope.

    It’s hard to believe another year has come and gone. It’s 2009 and what makes this new year unique is there’s more reason for pessimism than optimism at what it will bring. Maybe you’ve heard some of the dire predictions about what the near future holds. A couple of weeks ago, economist and ...read more
