July 29, 2007--Blessed are the poor in spirit, part 2

This sermon addresses two issues related to being poor in spirit--
#1. The difficulty of overcoming pride in our personal lives &
#2. Corporate/Congregational pride.

The Scripture reading is from Revelation 3:14-22, the letter to the church in Laodicea, a church that had settled for being lukewarm, middle-of-the-road, comme ci-comme ca, etc. Members of the church did not realize that they had pushed Jesus out...he is now standing outside knocking on the door, seeking a more intimate relationship with them.

July 22, 2007--BLESSED ARE THE POOR IN SPIRIT

Today we begin a new sermon series on BEING THE BLESSED...based on the Beatitudes of Jesus from Matthew 5:3-12.

This sermon focuses on what it means to be POOR IN SPIRIT, using the story Jesus told of the two men who went to pray one day from Luke 18:9-14 as a reference.

July 15, 2007--DOUBLE JEOPARDY, Part 2

In this sermon we look at a second factor that can keep us from experiencing the DOUBLE DOUBLE blessing that is available to us, namely, THE SNARE OF SIMPLICITY. Taking a clue from Jesus' words to Martha in Luke 10:38-42, the preacher plays Elisha and suggests a simple "solution" as well to all Naamans who seek healing.
