     | 4,549 views

    For the Sunday after Christmas I asked this question..."what if no one told the story? What if we gave up? If those who came before us had given up we would not be where we are now.

    “What if we give Up? Luke 2:8-20 Most of us have seen this movie more times than we can count. George Bailey, played by Jimmy Stewart falls into some financial trouble and not knowing what to do, he suddenly wishes he had never been born. Clarence, his guardian angel decides to grant his ...read more

    "my Sheep Listen To My Voice."

    In John 10:27 Jesus said, "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them and they follow me." If we're his sheep, we'll be able to recognize when he's speaking to us. We will know him, listen to him and follow him. Let's look at this subject and see what we can learn.

    MY SHEEP LISTEN TO MY VOICE John 10:1-10 In March I did a sermon on Ps. 23 about the Lord being our Shepherd. I used some verses from John 10 where Jesus said that he is the good shepherd. In vs. 27 Jesus said, "My sheep listen to my voice; I know them and they follow me." If we are his ...read more

    Is the Lord your personal Shepherd?

    A. ABOUT RELATIONSHIP 1. Why can I say, “The Shepherd is mine?” a. Because He gave His life for me. “The good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep” (John 10:11). “I give unto them (the sheep) eternal life” (John 10:28). b. Because He called me. “He calleth his own sheep by name” (John 10:3). ...read more

     | 7,000 views

    The Gnostic gospels were never “lost.” But they have been thrown out many times. We throw garbage away because it’s worthless. Theologically, the Gnostic “Gospels” are every bit as worthless as anything else we throw out. So is "The Secret."

    Other Scriptural passages: Deuteronomy 30:9-14 Colossians 1:1-14 Luke 10:25-37 Psalm 25 or 25:3-9 In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.

    A look at the message the angels delivered to the shepherds, and how the shepherds responded.

    It was March 10, 1876, when years of experiments finally paid off. A message of six simple words changed the way we live. With the words "Watson, come here. I want you" Alexander Graham Bell sent the first complete sentence over the telephone and ushered in a whole new era. It was a message that ...read more

     | 9,858 views

    In a world where gates gives us a false sense of security, there is only one secure gate.

    We love gates. We boast about living in gated communities. We have gates leading into our fenced yards to keep in what’s ours and to keep what we don’t want in our area. We have locks to reinforce our security with our gates. We feel secure with our gates. But most of us have fences ...read more

    This message will answer the following questions: Who should be told about the birth of the Savior? What did the shepherds do after they left Joseph, Mary, and baby Jesus? What did Mary do? What other events might Mary have pondered in her heart?

    Who should be told about the birth of the Savior? (Luke 2:8-16) God chose to tell His good news to the lowly. He sent His angels with the message to shepherds, who were watching their sheep in the fields that night. An angel said, "A Savior, who is Christ the Lord, has been born today in ...read more

    There is a danger that we have become so familiar with the story of Jesus that we begin to think everyone is.

    What if no one told the Story? Luke 2:8-20 Surveys are done on just about every subject now. One was taken with church members asking then which character in the Christmas story they most identified with. Mary? Joseph? The shepherds? The wise men? Most people who answered the question said ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 2, 2022
     | 3,424 views

    Part 2 of "I am the Good Shepherd" looks at what the good shepherd does and then Jesus as the Good Shepherd. Then we examine Jesus as The Sacrificial Shepherd who gave His life to save the sheep. To close, Jesus is the Chief Shepherd.

    “I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD” – HE LAID DOWN HIS LIFE - John 10 – PART 2 The study of the great “I AMs” of John’s Gospel is so lovely as we look at the Person and Ministry of our Lord Jesus. In all His offices He is serving His Church and all the individuals in the Church. Those are termed sheep, and ...read more
