    Playing The Fool Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 1, 2001
    based on 48 ratings
     | 6,090 views

    Words do hurt when they come from our unresolved anger. That anger is about our own issues, it requires accountability when it hurts others, it separates us from God when it is deliberate. Reconciliation is a priority.

    Words have power. The things we say to one another have power. Kids may deal with smart-mouths in the schoolyard by chanting, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me.” But that’s rubbish! Don’t you believe it. Names do hurt. Words hurt. The things we say to each ...read more

    The Temptation To Misuse Sexuality Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Aug 20, 2001
    based on 52 ratings
     | 4,010 views

    There are a number of distortions about sexuality that affect how we behave. What does the Bible teach us about our sexuality.

    Last week we talked about the lure of money and we saw how money is such a great temptation for us because of the way the love of money is promoted by our culture. Well, if that’s the case, then perhaps even more so is the temptation to misuse our sexuality. Sex is power in today’s world. Sex is ...read more

    The Detriment Of A Grudge

    Contributed by Jeffery Richards on Aug 28, 2001
    based on 78 ratings
     | 6,232 views

    What did Jesus mean when He said if we call someone a fool we would be in danger of the judgment? This sermon explores that question and many others.

    The Detriment of a Grudge Matt 5:21-48 Man, what a passage. This is a series of "you have heard", "but I tell you" statements that strike at the heart of Christianity. Remember in the last few weeks we have talked about how that Jesus knew the need to teach that the inner condition of the Heart ...read more

    The Danger Of Anger Series

    based on 21 ratings
     | 6,292 views

    Danger in itself is not wrong. But there are temnptations we face to deal with our anger unhelpfully.

    I want to talk today about the danger of anger; or more accurately about the temptation to let our anger consume us. Now let’s face it, every one of us will experience anger from time to time, some more than others. Some of us are probably more prone to anger due to our emotional makeup, but all of ...read more

    The Silent Sin Series

    based on 61 ratings
     | 2,795 views

    This sin is something we just don’t talk about today. It is not one of the Baptist ’biggies’; it is hidden, private, and all the more dangerous.

    I. A Discipline that is Deceitful A. Pharisees Insisted on External Obedience 1. Pharisees had reduced commandment number seven down to the mere physical act of adultery 2.

    Does your heart burn in a good sense?

    Athletes while training speak of feeling the burn. Those of us who are not athletic and have had a past life of alcohol consumption might think of the warmth that spreads over your body after a shot of whiskey as feeling the burn or the sensation as it passes through your throat.

    GO FOR IT: THE MINISTRY OF RECONCILIATION! How shall we handle discord and opposition? Where do we bend? Where do we stand? Is the hill worth dying for?
