  • What Do We Need?

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Feb 7, 2005
    based on 34 ratings
     | 4,788 views

    This is on the Transfiguration.

    What are our greatest needs? Food? Clothing? Shelter? Those things certainly are important, but is there a greater need? Set the stage: in Matthew 16, Peter confesses Jesus as the Christ. Jesus then went on to tell his disciples that he would soon be rejected and put to death. Jesus then ...read more

  • Worry Warts

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Jan 31, 2005
    based on 14 ratings
     | 2,984 views

    This is about worry.

    What do you worry about? The future? Money? School? Work? What you’re going to eat or wear? Sometimes we get caught in a spiral of worry. Worry has a way of compounding itself. Read Matthew 6:25-34. Worry can rob us of joy in life. When we worry about tomorrow or yesterday, we compound ...read more

  • Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Jan 24, 2005
    based on 21 ratings
     | 2,165 views

    This is about where to save our treasure.

    Regis is famous for asking, “Who wants to be a millionaire?” The better question is “Who doesn’t want to be a millionaire?” Perhaps the only ones are the billionaires. We all think about it. Many preachers talk about a prosperity gospel. “Follow God and get rich” is their mantra. Usually it ...read more

  • Where Does Pride Get You

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Jan 14, 2005
    based on 15 ratings
     | 2,342 views

    This is about the dangers of spiritual pride.

    There was a man who received a medal for his unusual humility. It was taken away when he wore everywhere. Read Matthew 6:16-18. The words “pride” and “proud” occur over 80 times in the Bible. Proverbs 16:18 says, “Pride goes before destruction, and a haughty spirit before a fall.” In the ...read more

  • Who Can I Hate?

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Jan 7, 2005
    based on 19 ratings
     | 2,187 views

    This is about loving our enemies.

    Read Matthew 5:43-48. This is yet another hard saying of the Sermon on the Mount. This goes beyond the revenge we looked at last week. Jesus said that we shouldn’t seek revenge. Okay, fine. I’d love to take revenge, but I won’t. Now he says that I have to love them. Isn’t it enough that I ...read more

  • How To Fight Back

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Jan 4, 2005
    based on 18 ratings
     | 4,357 views

    This is about revenge.

    The Sermon on the Mount contains many tough sayings. He said that adultery was more than just an act; it was a thought. He said that someone who was angry was also a murderer. Isaiah talked about a world turned upside down. Now Jesus is doing just that. Read Matthew 5:38-42. This is a hard ...read more

  • Is God With Us?

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Jan 1, 2005
    based on 29 ratings
     | 6,623 views

    This is a Christmas sermon.

    What is Christmas all about? In the classic Charlie Brown Christmas special, C. Brown cries out, “Will someone tell me what Christmas is all about?” Christmas is commercial. Read Isaiah 7:10-16. This passage tells what Christmas is really about: “God with us,” that is what Immanuel means. 1. ...read more

  • True Christmas Joy

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Dec 13, 2004
    based on 31 ratings
     | 7,387 views

    This is an Advent sermon.

    Joy is a big word this time of year. In the song “How Great Our Joy,” we sing “Joy, joy, joy! Joy, joy, joy!” seemingly over and over. We have “Joy to the World,” “Joyful, Joyful, We Adore You,” “Good Christian Men, Rejoice.” We talk of spreading “Christmas joy.” Where does Christmas joy come ...read more

  • A World Turned On Its Head

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Dec 6, 2004
    based on 21 ratings
     | 3,654 views

    This is an Advent sermon.

    Read Isaiah 11:1-10. Jesus turned the world upside down, or more appropriately, right side up. People never really understood Jesus. Paul said, “For those who live in Jerusalem…did not recognize him” (Acts 13:27). Everyone expected a military-political leader. Jesus closest disciples didn’t ...read more

  • Jesus Brings Peace

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Nov 29, 2004
    based on 41 ratings
     | 14,209 views

    This is an Advent sermon.

    Advent is a time of preparation, not just for Christmas, but for the coming of Jesus. The celebration of Advent is more than a memory of Jesus’ birth. It is also a realization that he is coming again. There will be a Second Advent. Are you ready for Christmas? Are you ready for Jesus’ coming ...read more

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Nov 22, 2004
    based on 31 ratings
     | 5,511 views

    This is a Thanksgiving sermon.

    Sometimes Thanksgiving seems a bit perfunctory. Turkey, sweet potatoes, stuffing, cranberries, mashed potatoes, pumpkin pie and the like set on the table. Christmas is coming: trees, gifts, travel and cards. Thanksgiving often becomes a stop over on the way from Halloween and Christmas. Read ...read more

    This is for the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church.

    [[A word about this sermon. This was a message for the International Day of Prayer for the Persecuted Church. This sermon was preached in four movements, or parts. We gathered.

  • Our Mission Series

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Nov 5, 2004
    based on 25 ratings
     | 2,850 views

    This series is based on A. M. Hills book "Holiness in the Book of Romans."

    This is, in essence, Paul’s mission statement. Mission statements are wildly popular today. A. The Spirit PROMISED Joel, “And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh” (2:28). Isaiah 44:3 “For I will pour water on the thirsty land, and streams on the dry ...read more

    based on 40 ratings
     | 13,200 views

    This series is based on A. M. Hills book "Holiness in the Book of Romans."

    Everything we have looked at over the last several weeks has led us to this point. Paul has been in realm of theory and theology. Now he gets practical. What does all this mean in everyday life? Read Romans 12:1-2. In v. 1 we have the word “therefore.” When you see that word you have to ask, ...read more

  • Death Or Glory Series

    Contributed by Wesley Bishop on Oct 25, 2004
    based on 30 ratings
     | 2,812 views

    This series is based on A. M. Hills book "Holiness in the Book of Romans."

    Choices are all around us. Some choices force us to decide between two different things. Some don’t. Ice cream machines have allowed those of us who like chocolate and vanilla to get both in the form of “swirl” ice cream. Other decisions aren’t like that. They require an either-or decision. ...read more
