     | 809 views

    A deep relationship with God is the essence of the Christian walk. It is the foundation for experiencing His presence, knowing His will, and living a life that pleases Him. However, cultivating such a relationship requires intentionality and dedication.

    Mordecai Is Honored Series

     | 7,235 views

    God holds absolute control over the lives of men. He is sovereign in every aspect of our lives. His divine plans will always be carried out according to His sovereign will.

    Mordecai is Honored Esther 6:10-14 I think you will agree that the sixth chapter of Esther is a very exciting text. In fact, the twists and turns within this biblical account would make a best-selling novel or movie script. However, they are not fiction; this is an actual account of the lives of ...read more

    What Time Is It For You?

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Aug 19, 2002
    based on 25 ratings
     | 6,170 views

    Esther is a great study in God’s hand to save his people. He uses events of history and people he choses to fulfill his will. What’s his plan for you?

    The canonization of Esther in the Holy Scriptures has been a hotly debated topic for centuries. While Esther tells of a historic event in the life of God‘s people, it never once mentions God’s name. For all practical purposes Esther is in the Bible to explain the origin of the Jewish celebration ...read more

    Life In The Needle's Eye

    Contributed by James May on Nov 2, 2003
    based on 24 ratings
     | 7,307 views

    If we are to have eternal life we must learn that we are going to live in "eye of the needle", constantly allowing Jesus to cleanse us and remove the burdens, while surrendering completely to his will.

    LIFE IN THE NEEDLE’S EYE Luke 18:18-30, "And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I do to inherit eternal life? And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good, save one, that is, God. Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not kill, Do ...read more

    Last in a series on encouraging the local church to remember Christ’s call to spread the gospel. This sermon asks what a church looks like that is willing to be Christ’s beacon in our dark world.

    MARKS OF A CONTAGIOUS CHURCH There is a story told about a hunter walking through the African jungle who found a huge dead elephant with pygmy standing beside it.

    Jesus tells Nicodemus that he must be willing to be changed into the person God would have him be. And I believe what Jesus said to Nicodemus applies to families and churches as well as to individuals.

    Being Born From Above – John 3: 1 - 17 Intro: 3 men died and were standing at the pearly gates. “What have you done to deserve heaven?” asked Peter. The 1st man, a police officer, said, “I enforced the law and fought crime.” Peter said, “OK, go on in.” The 2nd was a wealthy man who said, “I ...read more

    Pride by far is one of the most deadly sins. Pride acts as the gateway to just about every other sin, and Pride acts as a barrier between you and God, and your will and God’s will.

    There were these 2 ducks and a frog that lived together in a pond on a farm. They were the best of friends. You could sit there and watch them all day as they would play together in that pond. However they began to have a drought like we have had and the pond was drying up and they knew that ...read more

    Most people are willing to change, not because they see the light, but because they feel the heat. Angels have been a part of God’s plan of bringing men to repentance, let’s see how!

    Introduction As Angels work and operate in the lives of believers, we easily discover how they are involved in the lives of unbelievers.

    1 Timothy has some strange stuff for our 21st-century ears. It says, women “will be saved through childbearing--if they continue in faith, love, and holiness, with self-control.”

    Intro Today’s Epistle reading has some strange stuff for our 21st-century ears. It says, “Let a woman learn quietly with all submissiveness. I do not allow a woman to teach or to exercise authority over a man; rather, she is to remain quiet…. She will be saved through childbearing--if they ...read more

    We are to Give Worship to God because 1) Our Souls have been given to God and 2) Our bodies, 3) Our minds, and 4) Our wills should be given as well.

    As 2009 approaches its final weeks we see the wrap of not only a year but of the first decade of the Millennium. The greed of the 80’s resulted in caution being thrown to the wind in the 90’s resulting in the bottom falling out of the last ten years (the 00’s?). When people en mass strove to ...read more

    Seeing, hearing, and knowing God’s will is quite different from doing what God wants. For doing what God wants will often cost us something that we might not be willing to pay.

    John 6: 35, 41 – 51 / Obtuse Intro: A conscientious wife tried hard to please her critical husband, but failed regularly. Jack was especially disagreeable at breakfast. If Jill prepared scrambled eggs, he wanted poached; if she poached eggs, he wanted scrambled. One morning Jill poached one ...read more
