Envy Is The Green Monster Series

Contributed by John Morris on Mar 5, 2008

Envy is an underhanded enemy that chaffs at many Christians and spoils our joy.

When the early church fathers developed this list of the seven deadly sins, they knew well what they were talking about. Today we look at the sin of envy. There are 2 reasons this is an important sermon for us. First, Envy is the sin no one talks about. We boast about other sins, but ...read more

Restore Me Series

Contributed by Curry Pikkaart on Oct 16, 2014

We all have bad days, even bad periods in our lives. We all get discouraged. That's why we can identify with David.

“Soul Talk: Restore Me” Ps. 30 You know it’s going to be a bad day when: you turn on the morning news and they’re displaying emergency routes out of the city - your boss tells you not to bother taking off your coat - your horn gets stuck following a group of hell’s ...read more

It Begins With Mourning

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jun 8, 2011

The first step in the turn towards God is to be troubled by "the way things are;" in effect, to mourn over sin.

How many of you watched the debut of the new reality show, Temptation Island, this week? I didn’t. It had somehow slipped under my radar screen, and I hadn’t even heard about it until Thursday morning at Bible study. For those of you fortunate enough not to have heard about it, ...read more

Our King's Glad Face Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 16, 2021

Palm Sunday is a day of great paradox, for it was a day of such contrasting emotions. Jesus was such a glad king; such a sad king, and such a mad king.

The final week of the life of Abraham Lincoln has an amazing parallel to that of the final week of Jesus. From Palm Sunday to Good Friday is only 5 days, yet in that 5 days we go from the scene of the triumphal entry of the King to the scene of the tragic exit of the King on the cross. Listen to ...read more

Only The Lamb Is Worthy

Contributed by Terry Hovey on Apr 29, 2025

A scroll sealed with seven seals is in the hand of the One on the throne, and no one is found worthy to open it or even look at it—until the Lion of the tribe of Judah appears. But when John looks, he sees not a lion but a Lamb that appears slain.

Only the Lamb is Worthy Revelation 5:1-10 I think that as we begin looking at our text today in Revelation 5:1-10, it would help us to understand something of the background that led up to this point in John's vision. John's Revelation of Jesus Christ begins with a powerful vision of the ...read more

Put Your Trust In A Good God

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Mar 15, 2005

Despite hardship and having to run for his life, David kept his faith in a good God and prayed for deliverance. His experience can be ours too, today.

For a believer, no ’dead end’ is really a dead end. It is so only from man’s point of view. If we believe in God, then we must believe that He can still make a way. Matt 19:26 - Jesus: "With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible." Isa 43:19 - See, I am doing a new thing! ...read more

Wrong Questions, Right Answer

Contributed by John Dickey on May 16, 2006

Jesus ends the whys and wherefores of our burdened hearts – not with explanations so much as with loving, perfect restoration – making all things right, maybe not here, but absolutely in heaven – a real place, a steadfast promise, a rock-solid guarantee f

Wandering through the phenomenal collection of art in the Louvre museum you can get an odd sense of awe and futility.

Bracing For The Bad Times

Contributed by Keith Linkous on Aug 30, 2001

How do we make it through difficulties? Not just troubles, but even tragedies? Jesus told us we would have trouble, but He also promised peace. This message discusses how that is possible.

(This message was preached during a recent week where our family experienced the death of a close friend, and the death of a family members’ baby.) Any time tragedies and turmoils come to us, such as we have experienced this week, it sends us searching for answers. We begin to think, to ...read more
