So often we point to other people in the world and our fellow Christians and use them as a basis for our "holiness" or "spirituality." This lesson encourages us to take a hard look at ourselves and our relationship with God as well as our sin. Within the Church and within the community, we must be able to use introspection to evaluate our lives.  If this congregation can do anything for you, please contact us at www.normanchurch.com.

Does the past control you? Are you constantly haunted by the past and feel unable to move forward? The Bible has an answer for this relevant question.

When you hear the word Evangelist what comes to mind? Just who is an Evangelist and why is this question relevant today?

Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead. But Jesus in John 11:25-26 asked Martha a crucial question relating to His resurrection, "Do you Believe this? How would you answer that question? 

Many Jews during Jesus' day, initially looked forward to His rule and kingdom.

Then, as He was now drawing near the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had seen, saying:

“ ‘Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!’

Peace in heaven and glory in the highest!” (Luke 19:37-38)

Like the Jews, do you look forward to His return?

How should we value relationships? This sermon evaluates the perfect example of Jesus and how He valued relationships throughout His life on Earth. As Christians, our goal is to further the Gospel and bring people to Him. Building relationships is essential to this task. Through the scriptures, we are able to see how Jesus loved the people around Him and fostered those relationships to further the will of the Father.

So often do we find ourselves stuck in our lives. We might fall into contentment with how things are and forget to grow spiritually. We might decide to give up when pressed with sin, especially a sin we have been dealing with for a long time. This message looks at Philippians 3:12-14 and other passage of the New Testament to remind and encourage us to press on. To increase in love and wisdom and push past our pride or selfishness or weakness and rely on Jesus Christ as our comfort and motivation.

Small details left undone is a recipe for disaster. Do you take care of the small things of life?

How important is it to change your life and the way you think as a Christian? To conform to the life of Christ and no longer be like the world? What kind of difference will it make in all your relationships? What about your marriage? Or if you are not married?  These are things to think about because it is important to God. Do you need to move on and continue to change and grow?

Pray like this. In the second half of the Lord's Prayer we see where the Lord instructs us to petition our Father for daily bread, forgiveness, and concerning temptation. The Lord already knows our needs, but yet we still need to acknowledge and remember that all things come from Him. We also acknowledge our sin and dependence on him for all things in our life for He is in control of things that we cannot even imagine. Pray!
