  • Money And Giving

    Contributed by Greg Tabor on Feb 20, 2006
    based on 18 ratings
     | 5,593 views

    This sermon deals with Jesus’ call to us to store up treasures in heaven rather than merely stockpiling wealth for the here and now.

    Money and Giving 12/4/05 Pastor Greg Tabor Lighthouse Assembly of God Introduction There was a song years ago entitled ‘I Wanna Be Rich.’ It said ‘I want money, lots and lots of money.’ That song’s lyrics are just as true today. People want money and they want all the things that money can buy. ...read more

  • Testing Your Faith

    Contributed by Mark Opperman on May 6, 2015

    God wants me to live by faith. God builds my faith by testing it. How then, does God do this? I’d like to look at four ways God tests and builds our faith.

    Testing Your Faith The Bible says in Matthew 9:29 "According to your faith it will be done unto you." What are you expecting God to do in your life? This is the law that God has established. It’s called the Law of Expectation. The fact is, we tend to get what we expect out of life. We tend ...read more

  • Moses: From Contentment To Calling

    Contributed by Austin W. Duncan on Sep 26, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 242 views

    Self-help says “look within” for happiness; Scripture says contentment comes from being humbled by God and satisfied in Christ. In Moses we’ll see that contentment often precedes calling, stays active (not complacent), and resists complaining—because Christ is enough.

    Let me ask you a simple question, “Are you content?” I saw a self-help based article on the Internet that suggested contentment can be found by catching yourself thinking “life sucks,” and stopping such thinking. It continued that contentment is found by cultivating a thankfulness for “little ...read more

  • Going And Doing

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Jun 21, 2011
     | 3,662 views

    Many sermons are quickly forgotten! The way to remember a sermon is to go and put it into practice. Jesus asks his disciples to go, make, baptise and teach. We're called to do the same.

    I was looking at a website this morning called Kolij Misry (College Misery) which was discussing the so-called Last Lecture phenomenon. In other words, college lecturers were asking each other this question: If you had one last lecture, one last class to give, what would you spend your time on? ...read more

    One of the most common faults among those who claim to be Christians is that of having wrong priorities in this life. The truth is, we are amiss when it becomes our habit to put secondary things primary, and primary things secondary. It is hard to believ

    Intro: One of the most common faults among those who claim to be Christians is that of having wrong priorities in this life. The truth is, we are amiss when it becomes our habit to put secondary things primary, and primary things secondary. It is hard to believe and yet so true that we sin and do ...read more

  • Treasure In Heaven

    Contributed by Matthew Stoll on Dec 19, 2006
    based on 41 ratings
     | 14,223 views

    We need to place our treasure in heaven through giving to the poor and tithing to the church rather than fall into greed (excessive spending) and worry (excessive saving).

    [Clip from short film, Gone Nutty, from Ice Age. Scrat tries to store nuts for the Ice Age, and he stores one too many. 4:12] Jesus warned us about two dangers: greed (which includes materialism), and worry. Both of which lead to the same problem, storing up for ourselves treasure on earth, ...read more

  • Looking For God In All The Wrong Places

    Contributed by Gary Graff on Jul 18, 2015
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,590 views

    Like Jesus' followers of old, we sometimes fall in love with the gift and forget the giver.

    Remember that old country western song, “Looking for Love in All the Wrong Places”? The song was about a down and out cowboy, looking for love in bars and shallow relationships. “Looking for love in all the wrong places”. Today we have a text that might go by a similar ...read more

    Worship was the Wise Men’s greatest act

    What was the wise men’s greatest act? Was it their diligent study of the heavens, which resulted in the discovery of the Christmas Star? The Wise Men, also known as the Magi, were probably not kings, but a priestly band of scholars and stargazers. We don’t know what brilliant star these Magi saw. ...read more

    Introduction: This week is the first week that there are people selling sweet corn and candy corn at the intersection!

  • Who We Are In Christ As Church Member

    Contributed by Thomas Perdana on Aug 8, 2006
    based on 5 ratings
     | 2,864 views

    When we become a christian we have new identity in Christ, and our view toward each other in the church must reflect that fact.

    Here is the text from our Bible today: 15 And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again. 16 So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view. Though we once regarded Christ in this way, we do so no ...read more

    Three ways to develop a deeper commitment to God.

This commitment is essential if we hope to receive the crown of life (Revelation 2:10). 3. ...read more
