    What Do We Do With The Weeds?"

    When the end comes, it will become clear who those people are whose faith is truly in Jesus, and it will become clear who those are who have been just playing a religious game.

    When I was a kid, weeding the garden was one of my least favorite activities. It was often hot out there and my back would hurt from bending over. Worst of all, I thought it was monotonous work, so often I did not pay real close attention to what I was doing. And, sure enough, I would sometimes ...read more

    This sermon gives five reasons why fellowship is important.

    Fellowship – It’s What We Do! The Importance of Fellowship Fellowship is the “glue” that keeps people connected to our church. According to the New Testament, fellowship is not optional for a Christian. It is mandatory! Jesus said: “I give you a new commandment: love one another. Just as I ...read more

    To show that we need to acknowledge our brokenness before and come to JESUS to be healed. Without the necessity of seeing our brokenness, we will not require healing.

    I. EXORDIUM: Are you injured? Yes. but GOD healed me. Isaiah 6:10 Isaiah 6:10 (Amplified Bible) Make the heart of this people fat; and make their ears heavy and shut their eyes, lest they see with their eyes and hear with their ears and understand with their hearts and turn again and be healed. ...read more

    God offers all people an extraordinary invitation to come to him....

    1. An extraordinary invitation (55:1-4) Last week I attended my first ever Chinese Wedding Banquet. Because I had never actually been to one before, I was told there would be quite a bit of food. So right from the start I had fairly high expectations. I’m quite a big fan of food as some of you ...read more

    A perspective on Mark 10: 35-45. But what are our reactions, our thoughts, and our feelings towards these two audacious characters James and John?

    Mark 10: 35-45 At The Right Hand Of God How should we think about James and John, the sons of Zebedee? How should we think about the day they went to Jesus and said to him: “Teacher, we want you to do for us whatever we ask of you.” And when Jesus answered, “What is it you want ...read more

    "Follow Him"

    Contributed by Ronnie Knight on Nov 10, 2006
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,382 views

    We have made discipleship into what we endeavor to become for Christ rather than what Christ endeavors to make us for Himself. This sermon should challenge each hearer to follow Jesus and let Him make them into what He wants them to be.

    We live in a world of the “self-made” and the “self-proclaimed”. We ring this mind set into our Christianity. We make discipleship into what we endeavor to become for Christ rather than what Christ endeavors to make us for Himself. In our efforts to believe, belong and become we spend for to much ...read more

    never take for granted the victory over sin that Christ has won for us. Never underestimate the devil. He’ll oppose us at every opportunity. Never give up in the fight against sin and evil. But always remember the power of God and the armour with which he

    Do you remember when we looked at Paul’s prayer in Eph 3 that I commented how difficult it is to achieve the sort of unity that God wants from his church. In fact I pointed out that that’s why Paul prays the way he does: because only by God’s power can this miracle come about. Paul knows that apart ...read more

    Do We Smell Like Sinners?

     | 5,908 views

    Do we spend all of our time inside the church walls, or do we spend so much time out in the community serving others that we start to smell less like sheep and a little more like sinners?

    Do We Smell Like Sinners? I titled the lesson “Do We Smell Like Sinners?” There’s a book titled “Do They Smell Like Sheep” which was written for church leadership and you can probably figure out the gist of the book from the title. But, I want to challenge each of us ...read more

    It is interesting to see what we once were and to compare it with what we are. Paul does that in Romans 6 as he says we once were slaves to sin, but now are slaves to righteousness.

    Flipping through old photo albums, or even Facebook photos, can be a very interesting thing. It is neat to see what you were compared to what you are now. It can be interesting to see how you used to look and dress compared to how you do currently. Sometimes it can make you say, “What was I ...read more
