Sermons About Christianity
A Ransom For Many
What is the meaning of the death of Jesus? Why did it happen? What does it mean for us today? The center of Christianity has always been the cross - remove the cross, and you don't have Christianity.

Church Membership 101
One of the interesting facts about the early days of Christianity is that every time a person became a Christian and had opportunity, they joined themselves with other believers. Today we call this step of faith Church Membership. While it is possible to be a Christian and not be a church member, it is not possible to be a good, growing, and Godly Christian and not be a member of the Bride of Christ.

Soul Prosperity
We need to live in God’s righteousness, peace and joy on the inside all the time, not just cry out to God for it when we are in a crisis. Our soul is prospering when we are walking in step with Holy Spirit.

The Olivet Discourse, Part 1 (Mark 13:1-23)
In this portion of the discourse on the Mount of Olives, Jesus prophetically describes to his disciples the destruction of the temple, and the events that will precede it. While these events are long past, there is clear application for us today. We must be on guard, not to be led astray by false teaching and not to fear persecution or the happenings in the world around us. Instead, we are to trust in God's sovereignty and grace, and live our lives by the power of the Holy Spirit.

On Entering the Kingdom of God (Mark 10:13-52)
Continuing our series in Mark, we see where we stand relative to the overall flow of the book. In this passage from Mark 10, we see stated and demonstrated four things that are required of us as Christians: the humility of a child; a practice of discipleship that is willing to relinquish our own rights and possessions for God's sake; a cherishing of service toward others that is willing to endure suffering and sacrifice; and a faith that approaches Christ in complete dependence and trust in him.

Real Life & Real Change in the Real World
What does Jesus mean here when he talks about fruit and fruitfulness in life? When the Bible talks about fruit it is talking about deep positive changes in your life. In some places it also suggests the idea of a deep and positive influence on others for Christ. The best way to see this is to look at another passage, Galatians 5:22-23, which says; But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. In the vine and the branches Jesus gives us an image to tell us how those kinds of changes can come about in our lives.
