    The Triumphal Entry

    Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,521 views

    I'd like to look back at Psalm 103 because I believe that here we'll find six things for which we are to praise the Lord...six things that the disciples could relate to...things that I believe are what prompted the spontaneous praises that echoed through

    THE TRIUMPHAL ENTRY LUKE 19:28 40 I grew up in Northern Cambria. It was known for having some pretty good football teams. But there was one particularly memorable game against our arch rivals Cambria Heights that was very non typical. In the closing minutes of action the score is 31 0 and there ...read more

    Home Sweet Home

     | 8,398 views

    This morning I want to look at the story of a young man who discovered the truth of the familiar quote, "There's no place like home." It's the familiar story of the prodigal son...but maybe from a different angle than you've heard it before.

    HOME SWEET HOME LUKE 15:11 24 There is an old song that is still popular that says, "There's no place like home for the holidays..." With Thanksgiving and Christmas just around the corner our thoughts often turn toward home. For me, there are so many great memories of the times my family had ...read more

    Direction And Decision

    Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,932 views

    John had been able to deal with the question of direction...the one that asked "What shall we do?" But beyond that is an more basic question that asks, "To whom shall we go?"

    DIRECTION AND DECISION LUKE 3:1 18 There is a story about a man named Fred who inherited $10 million... but the will said he must accept it either in Chile or Brazil. He chose Brazil. Sadly, it turned out that in Chile he would have received his inheritance in land on which uranium, gold and ...read more

    The Responsibility Of Leadership

    Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 9,536 views

    Every Christian has certain responsibilities, and to live the Christian life we have to fall under the leadership of Christ because He is the head of our church...and we are all subject to him whether we're leaders or members of the church, or just occasi

    THE RESPONSIBILITY OF LEADERSHIP As we talk of leadership and the responsibilities that go with it, I don't want to just limit this message to a certain group of people. Because the qualifications that I'm going to be talking about today, even though they were leadership qualities or conditions ...read more

    What Is Freedom?

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,295 views

    Jesus said that we can be set free from sin...given the power to overcome our weaknesses through Christ. And some day, in God's plan and by His grace, we'll be given an eternal victory over sin in heaven. And that's Freedom! Anything else is a poor i

    Healing Old Wounds

    Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010
    based on 3 ratings
     | 9,517 views

    Someone once said that "Time heals all wounds." If I were to look back at all the physical battle scars I've managed to get over the years, and how they've become little more than memories, I might be inclined to think that statement is true.

    HEALING OLD WOUNDS JOHN 5:1 9 One of the things our children did quite frequently when they were younger was come running to Laura or I saying Boo Boo...wanting us to kiss it and make it better. Most of the time it is so minor that he often forgets exactly where the boo boo is by the time he gets ...read more

    When The Well Runs Dry

    based on 14 ratings
     | 15,888 views

    When the well runs dry and living becomes difficult...we need to grow silent so that we can hear God speak to us to give us the answers...to give us direction...to show us the way.

    WHEN THE WELL RUNS DRY JOHN 4:10 In the book A View From the Zoo, Gary Richmond tells about the birth of a giraffe: The first thing top emerge are the baby giraffe's front hooves and head. A few minutes later the little newborn is hurled forth, falls ten feet, and lands on it's back. Within ...read more

    Loose Lips Sink Ships

    Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,279 views

    The secret to victory...any victory, is closeness with Jesus...knowing Him...drawing near to His presence will reveal what is in our hearts. The reason many Christians continue to gossip and slander is because they never really have been close to Christ.

    LOOSE LIPS SINK SHIPS JAMES 3:1 12 Last week I spoke to you about the thoughts that come into our minds and how we can hatch snake eggs and weave spider webs if we don't begin to learn to think Scripturally. We have to be very careful about our thought life. I also printed Philippians 4:8 on the ...read more

    Jabbok A Place Of Total Surrender

    Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010
    based on 17 ratings
     | 25,692 views

    There is a great spiritual lesson in this because God wants us to seek our safety in complete surrender to His power and love. It is when we reach one hand to Him, while we keep holding on to the things of the world with the other, that we are in danger.

    JABBOK A PLACE OF TOTAL SURRENDER GENESIS 32:22 30 Last night I was sitting on my porch, on my new porch swing, and I was watching several birds sitting on the wire that carries the electrical power to my house. They were perched there without a care in the world. But I knew that if I would ...read more

    Hatching Snake Eggs

    Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,353 views

    This morning I want to look at v. 5 especially, and the idea of hatching snake eggs and spinning spider webs. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that in the world today there is a serious breakdown of holiness even among God's people.

    HATCHING SNAKE EGGS ISAIAH 59:1 8 Living in the country has so many advantages that I had forgotten about. The scenery, the freshness of the air, the crickets playing their music in the night. And there is also the opportunity for seeing some of God's most beautiful creatures... (do the snake) ...read more

    Ingredients Of A Healthy Church-Part 2

    Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010
     | 2,197 views

    We need to be a church that accepts one another...even if we don't always agree on each and every little thing. That takes work...and forgiveness...and a desire to put God's will above our own. Today I want to continue on with the next ingredient, and for

    INGREDIENTS OF A HEALTHY CHURCH-PART 2 1 CORINTHIANS 12:7 Last week I began to look at the ingredients of a healthy church... and I began with the unity that must take place if we are to ever experience the move of God that is promised in these last days.

    Knowledge Of God

    Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010
    based on 9 ratings
     | 25,151 views

    There is no more important question in all of life than that very question...Do you know God. It is the secret of true success...the source of wisdom beyond our understanding...the strength to endure in hard times.

    KNOWLEDGE OF GOD HOSEA 4:1 6 I want to begin this morning by asking you life's ultimate question. Be as honest as you can be with yourself...Do you know God? Notice that I didn't ask, "Do you believe that He exists...or do you believe in Him... I didn't ask if you are trying to live a good moral ...read more

    "Gutsy Love"

    Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,270 views

    The message this morning is simple yet quite profound. Some of you may be guilty of spiritual adultery. You've made a covenant with God, a promise to love Him and serve Him...but you've broken that...you no longer have the desire to remain true to Him.

    "GUTSY LOVE" HOSEA 1:1 11 The main concern of the prophets was to communicate to Israel what it meant to be Israel...or to put it in a better way...they were concerned with the nature and mission of the church. Israel had vowed to give herself to God and the way they would stay true to Him was ...read more

    A Holy Calling

    Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 6,280 views

    It is only as we recognize our place within the body of Christ and come to the realization that we do each have a specific, important ministry...it is only then that we will find the joy and fulfillment that comes from serving the living Christ.

    A HOLY CALLING READ 2 Timothy 1:1 12 ...Romans 8:28 A man once visited Tiffany's jewelry store in New York City He was shown a magnificent diamond with its gleaming yellow light, and then he was then shown many other beautiful gems.

    Is Love Ever Really Enough?

    Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010
     | 6,043 views

    I want to address the common, almost universal belief that says, "As long as you genuinely love each other, everything will always work out."

    IS LOVE EVER REALLY ENOUGH? GENESIS 24:62 66 Even the most devoted couple will experience a stormy bout once in a while. A grandmother, celebrating her golden wedding anniversary, once told the secret of her long and happy marriage. "On my wedding day, I decided to make a list of ten of my ...read more
