    Every sailor knows that you can’t ride out a storm with an overburdened ship. You’ll take on excess water and sink. The same goes for us, when we carry useless burdens around and a storm comes up – we’ll be in danger of sinking.

    Many of you came in here today carrying a burden, a load of care. The good news is that you can lighten your load, you can even get rid of your load altogether. Relax, you’re in the Lord’s house now, and I’ve got a feel’en everything’s gonna be alright! Amen! Our sermon comes from the Book of ...read more

    Stretching you past your limits to cope, God can use a crisis to bring us close and draw a crowd along with us to him.

    Paul’s trip to Rome beginning in Acts 27 is the story of a stormy trip and shipwreck. Few things are as awesome to experience as a big storm. This past year, Florida saw four hurricanes plow through and wreak a path of destruction. We can begin to think we are large and in charge when God allows ...read more

    How a gentle breeze of temptation can suddenly turn into a storm

    Acts 27:10-15. We find Paul speaking to the men in charge and speaking a warning. You know I believe Paul was speaking by unction of the Spirit and not just his opinion, but we find that the Centurion rejected his advice. He didn’t listen to the preacher. He believed the master and the owner of ...read more

    Passage: Acts 27:1-44 Intro: When we are in the middle of trouble, it is hard to see the hand of God. 1. this is when we tend to say, “what is God doing? Where is He?” 2. a great sign of maturity in a believer is when we can experience trouble and continue to trust God. 3. as we have gone ...read more

    Hope In The Midst Of Hopelessness

    When hopelessness mounts and upsets feeble men, the presence of believers in their midst is not by chance, but God put them there for a purpose.

    Hopelessness assaults human mind in many surprising ways and anyone who is caught unaware by its intimidating presence, his heart will melt helplessly like a block of ice in the heat of the day. Panic, blunders and emotional breakdown are negative results of being captured by this nerve-racking ...read more

    How Paul Focused Not on What He Lacked But On What He Had in Christ (Acts 27:1-26) 1. Why do you suppose that many people become depressed, discouraged or frustrated by circumstances?

    God Works Through Life’s Storms

    Acts 27:1-25 The God of the Storm I have been waiting for Chapter 27. If the book of Acts was a movie, chapter 27 would be the climax. I don’t know about you, but My favorite part of any movie is when the hero comes in and saves the day. It makes me wish Acts had a soundtrack. We have certain ...read more
