    Do Not Lose Heart

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on May 28, 2009
    based on 24 ratings
     | 15,253 views

    We do not lose heart because (1) we are inwardly being renewed, even though physically wasting away. (2) we have an eternal glory that far outweighs our momentary troubles, and (3) we can fix our eyes on what we cannot see - the eternal destiny God has p

    We like to buy things that can last for a long time. • When buy plastic cups because they are unbreakable. We buy Energizer batteries because they last longer. We buy shoes that are long-lasting. • How we wish life is just like that – that we will be able to stay physically strong and healthy ...read more

    God sees our lives with His unlimited perspective. We are so valuable and loved by our Father.

    Today for our message, we are going to play a short game called, “What is it?” The drawing that is being passed out to you is a view of a part of an item here within our Sanctuary. This past week I came in here and spent many, many hours perfecting my drawing for you. I know what you are thinking, ...read more

    Super Cool Or Super Real?

    Are you real? That might seem like an obvious question but consider the lengths you go to in order to present yourself as "all together" to your friends and brothers and sisters. Being impressive by appearance can actually impede both your growth in the L

    We talk a lot about natural human behavior and how that often runs counter to the real life given to us in Jesus Christ. Today I want to talk about your image. In our natural state we try really hard to present a good image to the world. We try to clean up, dress well, and act civilly. Beyond that, ...read more

    What separates mediocre performance from championship performance? Where do we get our endurance? The secret is in the Power Source!!!

    Senior Moments

    You'd be surprised at how many people God greatly used in their latter years. This message looks at several who had God-filled senior moments!

    SENIOR MOMENTS! 2 Corinthians 4:15-18 (KJV) "For all things are for your sakes, that the abundant grace might through the thanksgiving of many redound to the glory of God. For which cause we faint not; but though our outward man perish, yet the inward man is renewed day by day. For our light ...read more

    An Eternal Weight Of Glory Series

     | 7,912 views

    We should be grateful for God’s earthly, physical blessings and protection, but we should be even more grateful for the eternal blessings he gives us.

    An Eternal Weight of Glory (2 Corinthians 4:7-18 with Psalm 116) My view is that 2 Corinthians 4:7-18 is based on Psalm 116 (the 2 Cor. passage is a midrash). See if you agree. The “starting text,” Psalm 116:3-19 3 The snares of death encompassed me; the pangs of Sheol laid hold ...read more

    Cheap Sunglasses

    Wouldn't it be great to see things through the eyes of Jesus? Perhaps if we accept the Cheap Songlasses that come with Grace, we could see others differently.

    CHEAP SUNGLASSES (ALL my sermons use illustration found on www.sermoncentral.com and all scripture in NIV unless otherwise noted) This morning the puppets performed a song by Brandon Heath called “Give Me Your Eyes” to have the eyes of Jesus. “Give me your eyes for just one ...read more

    The Internal Power To Face External Pressures

    We cannot change what's going on around us most of the time, but we can change internally for the better so that we are better equipped to deal with external pressures.

    The gospel message is hidden from those who are spiritually blind.

    Text: “But if our gospel be hid, it is hid to them that are lost: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them” (2 Corinthians 4:3-4).

    Earthen Vessel, Feet Of Clay

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 29, 2009
    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,646 views

    Ordination of Troy L. Dixon, Nov. 1989: We pursue the trappings of religion instead of what is truly value. As a common clay vessel, be wary of power games, know that your foundation can crumble, focus on the treasure of the Gospel.

    Somehow in men’s minds the paraphernalia of religion get to be more important than the faith itself. It is one of the enduring problems of religious life, how it is that we get far more caught up and invested in the trappings of religion than in the faith itself. In your average church, you ...read more

    This sermon offers resources for coping with discouragement and help in overcoming despair.

    Have you ever seen someone lose heart? Maybe today you are struggling with issues and are on the verge of losing heart. Maybe you have already lost heart.

    This sermon offers resources for coping with discouragement and help in overcoming despair.

    Last week we began a series entitled “Do Not Lose Heart.” We established the point that many people lose heart as they travel the path of life. I mentioned Jim Ryun, who was a long distance runner. At one point in his life he lost heart with running and walked off of the track. He quit. He was ...read more

    In addition to the physical realm that we see, there exists an invisible spirit realm that the Bible refers to as the Heavenlies. This invisible realm is inhabited by angels and demons, and affects our world every day.
