    Little Chunks Of Doubt

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Apr 17, 2022
     | 1,004 views

    Often what we perceive as doubt is not really that severe. We experience times in which faith in Christ seems overwhelmingly demanding.

    We may cluck our tongues and roll our eyes at Thomas in this snippet from John’s Gospel. “How can the unanimous testimony,” we wonder, “of those who saw Jesus that Easter evening still leave Thomas, absent without leave then, in doubt of the Resurrection?” At first glance he just looks irreparably ...read more

    "fear"

    Contributed by Ken Sauer on Apr 19, 2022
     | 3,457 views

    A sermon about overcoming fear through the Risen Christ.

    “Fear” John 20:19-31 Our Gospel Lesson this morning begins on the evening of Easter. The doors are shut; they are “locked for fear of the Jewish leaders.” And this is understandable. The disciples were, after-all, followers of this Man who the Jewish leaders hated—hated enough for them to ...read more

     | 4,856 views

    Life can knock the wind out of us. Jesus shows up in those closed in places where we hide to breathe fresh Spirit into us to empower us to go on living into the mission He has called us into.

    SERMON TITLE: A Breath of Fresh Air TEXT: John 20:19-29 (NRSV) I. INTRODUCTION: Have you ever got the wind knocked out of you? Maybe as a child, you fell on the playground, or you were somehow hit in the stomach and couldn’t breathe. It is terrifying in those moments when it seems like time stands ...read more

    I can’t see your brain; but, I do believe that every one of you has one. The good news is that Jesus IS here and you DO have a brain. The bad news is that you may not use that good news or your brain by loving one another as Jesus loves to reveal that love to the world.

    In Jesus Holy Name April 24, 2022 Text: John 20:19-31 Easter II “Resurrection Blessings” The Rev. Ray Pritchard in one of his sermons wrote this phrase: “Science bows before the empty tomb.” I like that phrase. The gospel accounts were written 2000 years ago. We live in a day of ...read more

    The resurrection peace of our lord Jesus Christ, who dies so that we may have everlasting life.

    SHALOM…PEACE How often has Jesus warned us of the hatred of the world as He experienced it , how He was persecuted so we shall be as well. His disciples feared for their lives after the crucifixion, locking themselves in the upper room, waiting… Are we as individuals and a church sitting behind ...read more

    Pentecost- Don’t Be "Holy Spirit Shy.”

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on May 11, 2022
     | 1,119 views

    The key is the realization that when the charis or gift of God is received, then the charismata should be in evidence.

    To confirm is related to the word “firm” as in to strengthen and reinforce. God confirms our faith so we can withstand a certain amount of force, to stand in opposition to the falsehoods and challenges manifested by the devil, and more positively, to witness to the Gospel. e.g. Owen Phelps said ...read more

    Then... Came Jesus

     | 3,039 views

    Notice, our Bible tells us in verse 19, that the disciples were “assembled” behind closed doors.

    Many folks believe it is possible the doors were locked since the reason they were shut up was because they feared for their lives. The Greek word used for “closed” here certainly indicates “secured” or “locked.” Since the Bible points out that they were behind closed doors at that particular ...read more

    The Faith Of Thomas

    Contributed by Byron Perrine on Jul 9, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,544 views

    Thomas should not be condemned or even criticized for his insistence upon empirical evidence. Thomas provides an exemplary modal from which we can learn more about the nature of convincing faith.

    (If you have found this sermon useful, please visit us at www.HeritageRestorationProject.org or www.ChristianWisdom.info.) When we think of the Apostle Thomas, we sometimes think of him in a somewhat negative light. The event involving Thomas in John 20:19-31 has given rise to the phrase, “Don’t be ...read more

    "Fat” Is Where It’s At

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Aug 19, 2019
     | 9,087 views

    We need to feast on the Word of God much more than we do.

    “Fat” is where it’s at! The state of Missouri is known as the “Show Me” state. The phrase, “Show Me,” was coined in 1899 by then Congressman Willard Duncan Vandiver while delivering a speech in Philadelphia. “I come from a state,” he said, “that raises corn and cotton, and cockleburs and ...read more
