    What really matters in life.

    I have done 3 funerals in the last month. I’m getting tired of doing them, so all of you knock it off. I don’t want to do any more funerals for a while. Two of the funerals I did I didn’t know the people personally, so their families had to give me something to talk about at the funeral. It is a ...read more

    Looking At The Plans Series

    Contributed by Stewart Holloway on Nov 14, 2006

     | 6,667 views

    However, in order for God to be free to work, you need to be dreaming the right dream. You need to be envisioning the right plan. Not just any plan will do for God. You need a divine plan to build your home. That plan is God’s written word.

    I love to look at building plans – especially of houses and churches. Whether it’s a floor plan or a full blueprint, I love it. My love for plans began when I was in fifth or sixth grade and my parents were planning to build their house. Mom and dad involved me in the plan selection process, and ...read more

    Most people believe joy comes from the things they own. In reality, things can steal our joy quickly. Paul understood how things could steal our joy, that is why he gave us two admonitions to keep us from the snare of materialism. Each of these admonitio

    Our culture is trapped in a disease for the desire of things, and we are not sure what to do about it. Consider the following facts… Gambling 60 % of adult Americans gambled in the last 12 months 20 years ago, two states had legalized gambling, while 48 states outlawed gambling – today 48 states ...read more

    This sermon suggests that we follow the example of several biblical characters and concludes by giving us some New years Resolutions to consider.

    Introduction: I have never really been any good at keeping New Year’s Resolutions, so consequently I haven’t made very many over the years. The only one I’ve managed to keep once or twice is to read the Bible through in a year. If you’ve never done that, I would encourage you to give it a try ...read more

    Breathing New Life Into The Church

    There are churches (and individual Christians) who look at the trouble and hardships their dealing with and feel that God has forsaken them. They feel like their spiritual life is being sapped right out of them, and are on the brink of giving up.

    BREATHING NEW LIFE IN THE CHURCH A. How is your WALK with Christ? 1. I think most Christians will answer that question with, "It’s good." COMMENT: Deep down, however, something is MISSING. You can’t quite put your finger on it, but the JOY you once had in Christ is DIMINISHING. ...read more

    Paul compares what the Jews and Gentiles sought to what he gave them - Christ crucified. This shows us what is really important in our message and our methods of reaching out.

    March 19, 2006 1 Corinthians 1:22-25 Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks look for wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.

    In this sermon we notice that John gives his readers both assurance and a warning.

    Introduction: A. One day a group of 1st graders took a tour of a hospital. 1. The person who had guided them on the tour then opened it up for questions. 2.

    Introduction: This past Spring, our church was involved in a spiritual campaign called 40 Days of Purpose.

Rather ...read more
