    based on 11 ratings
     | 13,865 views

    A message that our spiritually dull generation does not want to hear. Sacrifice is one of the demands of Jesus Christ.

    The Greatest Challenge of the Cross Matthew 16:24-25 KJV Then said Jesus unto his disciples, If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me. [25] For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: and whosoever will lose his life for my sake shall find ...read more

    "First, I preached my church empty, and then preached it full again."

    David Foster Wallace said, "The truth will set you free. But not until it is finished with you,” in other words, the truth has to be assimilated in your conscience before it can set you free. Stanley Hauerwas, of Duke Divinity school, says, in effect, that, when we don’t let the truth ...read more

    " Must" For The Growing Church

    Contributed by Joel Santos on Sep 30, 2004
    based on 37 ratings
     | 5,640 views

    If we are to see our churches growing like the early church, we must be like the Jerusalem church. Certain characteristics should be present in our churches today before growth takes place.

    The whole process of growth is caused by God. A farmer plows his field, sows the seed and fertilizes and cultivates the plant--all the while knowing that, in the final analysis, he is utterly dependent on forces outside himself. He knows he cannot cause the seed to germinate nor can he produce the ...read more

    3rd in a seven part series on the incarnation from John 1.

    One of the things I love most about the gospel of John is that the weightiest of doctrines are delivered in the simplest of words. We’ve seen that already in the introduction of his gospel, but the four simple words that we’ll look at in detail this morning may very well be the four most ...read more

    Christ appoints whom He wills to preach the message of life, and He holds those whom He appoints in His hand.

    Jesus has not only washed us clean from our sins, he energizes us for continual service.
