    God uses our praying together to change the world.

    Scripture Introduction I often remind my family of a profound truth I have learned from living: you cannot make people do what you want. Even if it is in their best interest, even if they should do it, matters little. You cannot make people do what you want. You have tried. You have shown your ...read more

    The Body of Christ needs to go tell the world about God’s amazing love and mercy, the church must be active in fulfilling the Great Commission of Jesus. That means us at Christian Hills! We must tell others about our amazing Savior.

    Series: What is the Spirit Saying? Review: The expression, "what the Spirit says to the churches" occurs in each of the seven letters to the particular churches in the book of Revelation. In these letters, Christ reminds these churches that he sees what is going on in their churches. He highlights ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,751 views

    Apostle Paul encountered the Lord Jesus on the road to Damascus and he was changed forever. His life was to live for Christ and for the assignment which Christ had given him. For Paul said, For me to live is Christ, to die is gain.

    Good morning leaders and co-laborers in the Lord, do you remember what did Paul said to Jesus on the road to Damascus at the time of his conversion? The Call of Apostle Paul on the road to Damascus. Acts 9:6 “Lord, what do You want me to do?” From that time, the life of Paul was never the same ...read more

    This message is part of our Super Heroes Series. The sermon shows how the story of the Transformers is taken out of the Bible. Although Optimus Prime is a great leader, he is not on the same level as Jesus Christ.

    Super Heroes—Optimus Prime —God Calls You To Be A Transformer 7/16/2017 Isaiah 42:1-9 Ephesians 4:17-32 We are in our series Super Heroes. So far we have looked at a Superman and found his story in the story of Moses. We looked at Wonder Woman and found her story was in the ...read more

    Sermon based on Paul’s Conversion on the Road to Damascus and Simon Peter and the disciples at the Sea of Galillee Jesus’ 3rd appearance

    Lord, what do you want me to do? How often we have spoken these very words. How often I have prayed this prayer. Today we live in a world that seems to leave us so helpless in the midst of crisis. Whether it comes in the form of World events such as war and famine in Africa, to the tragedy on a ...read more

     | 18,265 views

    Each and every one of us have a purpose. God desires for each of us to know Him though His Son. But beyond salvation, He has a plan for each of us. Eventually, we must ask the question Saul of Tarsus asked: "Lord, what do You want ME to do?"

    Key Verse: 6a Introduction Q: “Lord, what do you want me to do?” What a question! What a novel idea! Asking the Creator what He desires of His creation. You might say that Saul was a “religious man.” Actually he was a very religious man! He knew how to pray. He had devoted himself to the ...read more

    Discover two gems helpful to balancing ministry and money in this short sermon aimed to help church leaders stay faithful not fearful.

    Pastoring in America means dealing with the dollar. It’s what we have to come to grips with in a culture where “church” has largely become a business. In fact, some shepherds tragically view Washingtons and Lincolns just as necessary, if not more, than the Holy Spirit, people, or the Bible. Which ...read more

    No one is beyond God's redemption, and like Saul, who became Paul, we are all called to respond to God's transformative power, hope, and command to action.

    Good morning, church! As we gather together today, we turn our focus towards the transformative power of the Gospel, the hope it brings, and the call to action it demands. We'll be hanging out in Acts 9:6, where Saul, a fierce persecutor of the early church, has a life-changing encounter with Jesus ...read more

    Christmas can be difficult and sometimes you just can’t wait until it is over. This sermon looks at the first Christmas through the eyes of Joseph and what it must have been like for him.

    Maybe you can relate to this. I got this story from a friend of mine, and it tells the story of how the tradition of putting the angel of top of the tree began. When four of Santa’s elves got sick, and the trainee elves did not produce the toys as fast as the regular ones, Santa was beginning ...read more
