Sermons About Knowledge
Knowledge vs. Love
One of the blessings of a relationship with Jesus Christ is freedom. We’re free from striving to “be good” to earn God’s favor. We’re free from our pasts, our worries, and our old ways of thinking. Freedom is a wonderful gift. But the gift comes with a great responsibility. Discover how our freedom in Christ enables us to make choices that will have a significant impact on God’s Kingdom.

The Wisdom of God, the Foolishness of Men
Bruce Hoblit, Lay Speaker - 1 Corinthians 1:18-25 - That our faith would not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. He is omniscient; His understanding is infinite. He gives both wisdom and understanding.

What Is It That We teach Our Children
Do we raise our children the way God instructs us to do. Do we really set the right example for our children. Do the see us read the bible; Do we teach them from the bible or do we allow the ways of the world to interfere or worse; dominate.

Big Prayers for One Another
Paul's prayer for the Colossians is a beautiful example of the kind of 'big' prayer that we should be praying consistently for one another, a prayer we can only pray in Jesus' name.

An Overview of Ecclesiastes (Part 2) : The Inevitability of Death
On any given day, approximately 155,000 people worldwide die. This works out to about 56.5 million people every year. Some deaths are peaceful and others violent and tragic. Some die of disease, lack of necessities and others of old age; some die at the hands of another person, some by accident or of a natural disaster. Death is a hard thing. It brings much sorrow and pain to our lives and cuts so many lives short. It is the one thing all of us have in common.

The Path to Knowledge
Worldly wisdom is based on one of two types of information, religion and reason or some combination of the two. Godly knowledge can be informed by these two disciplines but Godly knolwedge comes only by means of surrender.

Wisdom In Shoe-Leather: Righteousness In Proverbs
Wisdom and Righteousness are not just high-sounding spiritual terms that we read about in the Bible. Wisdom and Righteousness are meant to be worked out in the practical, every day parts of our lives, especially as they pertain to how we see and relate to others.

Dear Church, Jesus Really Is Enough! - Colossians 1:9-14
Like so many of us today, the Christians in Colossae often wondered if Jesus -- if the Gospel they had come to believe in -- was really enough to meet their needs, not only for eternity, but for the here and now. This week, we look at verses 9 through 14 of Colossians 1 and see that Paul tells them (and us) that yes, Christ provides everything we need, and we can ask God with confidence for everything that he has already provided to us.

Am All Knowing
God is someone who always sees the path ahead of us. What would it mean to walk with a God like that? I can trust God with my future & exchange my O.K. plans for His best plans. I can also trust God with my present. This is tough for the Google-map culture we live in. We expect to know every step NOW. What would it mean to trust this all-knowing God with my past?

Our Purpose, Our Privilege, Our Passion, Pt 2 - Learning
Colossians 1:28-2:23 Knowing that God has historically chosen to lead and feed His people through His Word, it only makes sense that those who want to live in ever deepening relationship with Him will become dedicated, lifelong learners. Yet, learning that is not connected to, and motivated by, a desire for growing, authentic relationship with Jesus Christ will end up producing a proud dogmatism that both produces stubbornness in the soul and division in the church.

Spirituality and Wisdom
Paul challenges Corinthian Christ-followers to look around the church and observe that those most esteemed by the world are strangely absent in the church. By and large, the church is not composed of wise men, scholars, and debaters of the day. The church is not made up of the cultural elite. In I Cor 1:26-31, Paul urges them to look around the church to see who is present. The church is not made up of the upper crust of society but rather the rejected and despised of society. Of course there are exceptions, but the rule is clear. The world regards God’s wisdom as foolish because it is incapable of comprehending or accepting His truth. God’s wisdom is a mystery which outsiders cannot grasp, and no one would have known apart from divine revelation.
