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

    based on 91 ratings
     | 13,361 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

    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

    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.

    based on 27 ratings
     | 6,748 views

    This is a Palm Sunday message.

    Read Luke 19:28-40. The Palm Sunday passages often seem trite. Much like the Christmas story, or any other familiar Bible story, we can gloss right over the truth because we’ve read it a million times. Each year at Palm Sunday, we have the obligatory feel-good message about the palm branches, ...read more

    This is not the typical Easter sermon. It is specific to our church and where we are. It looks at some different implications of the events surrounding the resurrection.

Read Luke 24:1-12. Many of us have read or heard this passage a million times. We heard a number of sermons ...read more

    This is on the Letter to Smyrna.

    This is the only mention in the Bible about the Church of Smyrna. Smyrna was very close to Ephesus, which we looked at last week.

    What comes to mind when I say, “In the year 2001”? 2001 was a year that changed the way we look at security. The WTC attack rocked our world. It had been 60 years. OKC was domestic. WTC ’93 failed. We were hit at home. Life is not the same. Threat level codes. Air marshals. Dep. of ...read more
