    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Mar 16, 2004
    based on 15 ratings
     | 3,313 views

    This is full text, albeit short. This was part of a Good Friday service covering the sayings of Jesus on the cross.

    She was perched on the couch. “Catch me, daddy!” She leaped into my arms. Man, was I scared. My daughter demonstrated faith and trust in me as her dad. She just knew I would catch her. I wasn’t so sure. She has known from very early that I love her and that I have her best interest in mind. ...read more

    This is a sermon I used as a children’s pastor.

    Imagine with me. You are walking along a long dusty, hard road. It is hot and your feet hurt. Your mom and dad are beside you. You are going to church. Suddenly the start singing: Psalm 100 (NIV) Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth. Worship the LORD with gladness; Come before him with ...read more

    Church And Chocolate Chip Cookies

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Mar 16, 2004
    based on 91 ratings
     | 13,474 views

    This sermon started when I was in Preaching Class, and it evolved into this. I preached this sermon my first Sunday at my church.

    I’m a “dunker.” Not with a basketball, as I am only 5’9”, but rather with chocolate chip cookies. There is nothing quite like the chocolate chip cookie. They come in all shapes and sizes, but they are very similar in how they are made. There is the flour, sugar, butter, eggs, vanilla and, of ...read more

    based on 31 ratings
     | 8,440 views

    This is about choosing to follow God.

    We have so many CHOICES. Cereals, soaps, cars. The Model-T was offered only in black. Minor choices: socks, Coke or Pepsi, car color. Major choices: marriage, career, where to live. Give a brief history of exodus and conquest. Read Joshua 24:14-18. The people were faced with a ...read more

    based on 70 ratings
     | 12,783 views

    This sermon gives people a time for them to allow God to search their heart.

    The Lenten Season is one of preparation and self-examination. We have looked at “Facing Temptation,” “Where’s Your Citizenship?” “My Way or God’s Way,” and “Choose Your Side.” This psalm (139) is a deep, introspective work. If we take it seriously, it could change your life. If this is truly ...read more

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Sep 29, 2005
    based on 29 ratings
     | 16,455 views

    This is about being salt and light in our world.

    How would you change the world? How would you change your world, the one in which you live? Who is going to make the change? How are changes made in our world? Who makes changes? What is our role as a church in changing our world? Or, do we even have a role? Read Matthew 5:13-16. 1) Salt What ...read more

    Death Or Glory Series

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Oct 25, 2004
    based on 30 ratings
     | 3,401 views

    This series is based on A. M. Hills book "Holiness in the Book of Romans."

    Choices are all around us. Some choices force us to decide between two different things. Some don’t. Ice cream machines have allowed those of us who like chocolate and vanilla to get both in the form of “swirl” ice cream. Other decisions aren’t like that. They require an either-or decision. ...read more

    based on 40 ratings
     | 14,921 views

    This series is based on A. M. Hills book "Holiness in the Book of Romans."

    Everything we have looked at over the last several weeks has led us to this point. Paul has been in realm of theory and theology. Now he gets practical. What does all this mean in everyday life? Read Romans 12:1-2. In v. 1 we have the word “therefore.” When you see that word you have to ask, ...read more

    based on 25 ratings
     | 3,501 views

    This series is based on A. M. Hills book "Holiness in the Book of Romans."

    This is, in essence, Paul’s mission statement. Mission statements are wildly popular today. A. The Spirit PROMISED Joel, “And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh” (2:28). Isaiah 44:3 “For I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry ...read more

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Nov 22, 2004
    based on 31 ratings
     | 6,456 views

    This is a Thanksgiving sermon.

    Sometimes Thanksgiving seems a bit perfunctory. Turkey, sweet potatoes, stuffing, cranberries, mashed potatoes, pumpkin pie and the like set on the table. Christmas is coming: trees, gifts, travel and cards. Thanksgiving often becomes a stop over on the way from Halloween and Christmas. Read ...read more

     | 15,197 views

    This is an Advent sermon.

    Advent is a time of preparation, not just for Christmas, but for the coming of Jesus. The celebration of Advent is more than a memory of Jesus’ birth. It is also a realization that he is coming again. There will be a Second Advent. Are you ready for Christmas? Are you ready for Jesus’ coming ...read more

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Dec 6, 2004
    based on 21 ratings
     | 4,099 views

    This is an Advent sermon.

    Read Isaiah 11:1-10. Jesus turned the world upside down, or more appropriately, right side up. People never really understood Jesus. Paul said, “For those who live in Jerusalem…did not recognize him” (Acts 13:27). Everyone expected a military-political leader. Jesus closest disciples didn’t ...read more

    based on 31 ratings
     | 8,419 views

    This is an Advent sermon.

    Joy is a big word this time of year. In the song “How Great Our Joy,” we sing “Joy, joy, joy! Joy, joy, joy!” seemingly over and over. We have “Joy to the World,” “Joyful, Joyful, We Adore You,” “Good Christian Men, Rejoice.” We talk of spreading “Christmas joy.” Where does Christmas joy come ...read more
