    Was the cross and all of its barbarism necessary or was there another way? It calls us to decide whether Jesus wa Liar, Lunatic or Lord.

    Did Jesus Have To Die? (The offense of the cross) 1 Corinthians 1:18-25 Did Jesus have to suffer and die?" To say that it was necessary causes Christians no problem at all. In fact, the story of the cross, or forgiveness of sins, of paying our ransom, or the just dying for the unjust... THE ...read more

    Broken, Worn Out, Old Clay Pots

    I used this sermon as one of several in a series on Clay Pots (Earthen Vessels). This was the one I used on Father’s Day during that series.

    I recently came across a Chinese parable that eludes to our thoughts for today’s text. It’s a tale about a water-bearer and his two pots of clay. An elderly peasant had two large clay pots. One of the pots had a crack down its side to a point about half way. The other pot, perfect! Each had been ...read more

    When you look at major events many times you can see a time and place a difference was made. We look at different things people did in the word of God that made a difference.
