    based on 6 ratings
     | 5,038 views

    In our corrupt and chaotic world, we as Christians must be careful not to lose our proper perspective, both on our world, and ourselves. We must remember who and what we are.

    Acknowledging What We Are Text: I Cor.15: 9, 10 Intro: We live at a point in time that could be labeled as both exciting and exasperating. It is exciting because we are literally witnessing the coming together of events that point to the soon return of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is also ...read more

  • Why Geckos Go To Church Series

    based on 14 ratings
     | 18,440 views

    Little lizards crawl around church building in Asia and no one seems to mind because everyone knows that they are harmless and they catch bugs that are harmful. Not a bad work ethic.

    We are looking at the book of Proverbs. Like one who seizes a dog by the ears is a passer-by who meddles in a quarrel not his own. Remember last week we met two women who live in the pages of the book of Proverbs: Lady Wisdom and Madame Folly. The final question is: who are you going to ...read more

  • Why God Chooses Man?

    Contributed by Patrick Usifo on Sep 7, 2017
     | 9,250 views

    No man has the capacity to choose God. And none can explain why God makes choices in the first place. It follows that He must choose those that will show His praise and glory.

    Chosen of God Text: Ephesian 1:1-4 Who can explain Christianity? Any man that claims to have the answer is grossly mistaken. Christianity that can be explained is not real but lacking the substance of truth. Christianity has a depth and height that no man can fathom. Moreover, today’s sermon is ...read more

    based on 17 ratings
     | 16,955 views

    Why does God want us to contend for signs and wonders and healings and miracles in the church, and how do we see more of them in our lives?

    Contributed by George Rennau on Jul 1, 2005
    based on 10 ratings
     | 5,368 views

    Why are you a follower of JESUS? Is it because of His claims and promises. Is it because of His signs and wonders. Or is it because He is the only source to fill the need of your life.

    Title: Why People Follow Jesus Text: John 6:35, 47-54, 60-69 Introduction: 1. Some because they like what he said Luke 6:20-23 "Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.

  • Choices We Make

    based on 14 ratings
     | 19,535 views

    When we sort through the implications of our choices, be they major or minor, how does a relationship with Jesus Christ figure into the equation? There is perhaps no greater choice facing us each and every day of our life than this choice. If you decide n

Intentionally set in very small type, they actually discourage people from understanding them. Because of this, many ...read more

  • Why Paul Preached The Gospel

    Contributed by Keith Linkous on Jun 22, 2002
    based on 71 ratings
     | 5,220 views

    Paul said, "Woe is unto me if I preach not the Gospel." This not only speaks to ministers, but confronts the laity of their responsibility to share the good news.

    I want to spend a few minutes tonight looking at this verse, even dissecting it a little bit, to bring it into an applicable understanding for all of us. Because when we read words like “preach,” and we do not have a life calling to stand in a pulpit like myself, we can sometimes shrink back ...read more
