4451. The First Songs of Christmas

Luke 1:39-45, Luke 1:46-56

Sermon

Lori Wagner

... child. Child gives saucy retort and ignores parent. A few minutes later, parent offers child a trip to get his or her favorite ice cream! Now, we have a reaction to this story, don’t we? But you see, unfortunately, this is sometimes the way we view God’s gift of grace. We call God’s salvation gift, simply an “undeserved gift.” But that doesn’t quite cover it, does it? Because surely in scenario one above, the parent’s gift is clearly undeserved. But there’s something missing that makes us ...

4452. The Unclean Palate

Acts 10:1-8, Acts 10:9-23a, Acts 10:23b-48

Sermon

Lori Wagner

... with them, and realize, they are human just like we are. Father Gregory Boyle at Homeboy Industries in Los Angeles works with youth gang members to rehabilitate them and help them turn their lives around. Father Boyle often tells stories of the way people view these young men. Often, people will move to the other side of the street when passing them by. Sometimes, they’ll hold their children closer, or avert their eyes. And yet, he attests that these young men, who have become Christian and who have ...

4453. Now, It's Personal

Matthew 5:21-37

Sermon

Dean Feldmeyer

... about not breaking it. You spent all your time with your eyes glued to the law so you could dance on the very edge of it without falling off. But it’s not about the law. Step back away from the edge of the law. Look up; take a broader view and see the big picture and you’ll see very clearly that while it may have, at one time, been about the law, now, it’s personal. It’s about your relationships with your brothers and sisters. It’s about how we treat each other. About the same time I ...

4454. Would You Like to Live Forever?

John 10:1-21

Sermon

King Duncan

... ’s look at the tiny kingdom of Bhutan, which is located between Tibet and India. In 1972, Bhutan’s king created a Gross National Happiness Index because he believed the happiness of his people was vitally important to their well-being. But the people of Bhutan view the path to happiness a little differently than we do. One of the secrets to happiness according to their philosophy is to think about your own death five times a day. (4) That seems like a gloomy way to live to me, but different strokes for ...

4455. The Secret to Happiness

John 14:1-4, John 14:5-14

Sermon

King Duncan

... regard to what I wish to do; what I feel to be good is good, what I feel to be bad is bad.” (4) Is that the way to find happiness—depend entirely on my feelings? If it feels good, do it? Serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer agreed with this view. He based his sense of morality on his own feelings. During police interrogations after his arrest and confession, he commented, “If it all happens naturalistically, what’s the need for a God? Can’t I set my own rules? Who owns me? I own myself.” (5) So if we ...

4456. Daddy's Love

Matthew 10:1-42

Sermon

King Duncan

... by Anthony Perkins. According to an interview Leigh did with The New York Times before her death, she said the scene had a dramatic effect on her—in spite of the fact that, above all people, Janet Leigh knew it was “just a movie.” After viewing the famous shower scene, in which she was repeatedly stabbed, Leigh says she was seized with an overwhelming and lasting terror. “I stopped taking showers,” she said in the interview, “and even now I take only baths.” In fact, when the actress stayed in ...

4457. Rise Up

Ezekiel 37:1-14

Sermon

Lori Wagner

... again. Just as faith surged in the past after global changes and difficulties such as the industrial revolution, the revolutionary, civil, and world wars, the Spanish flu, and the great depression, we live in a time when faith is needed now more than ever. As we view the world from our television sets, as we oversee a global panorama of death and fear, as people rush the markets for toilet paper and food, as we remain locked inside of our doors for fear of an uncontrollable viral invader over which we have ...

4458. Dance of Love

John 14:5-14, John 14:1-4

Sermon

Lori Wagner

... waiting, hoping they would be alright, longing to see them, biding time until they would come home. When they did, it was cause for celebration. When they couldn’t, people had to mourn without closure, grieve and hold memorials often without a body to view or a hand to hold. Children sometimes only saw their fathers after they reached the age of 4 or 5. Families needed to adjust to new dynamics, and changes from distant to personal space. In early America, as European immigrants became the norm, people ...

4459. You're Watching What?

Matthew 11:1-19, Matthew 11:25-30

Sermon

King Duncan

... and stresses of the other. And so mother and daughter learn to respect and empathize with each other because they’ve walked in each other’s shoes. If Jesus were to live a day in your life, would he have the same priorities as you do? Would he view your circumstances as you do? Would he get stressed over the things that stress you out? Why not? Because Jesus looks beyond the circumstances of our lives to the greater story that a loving God is writing through us. I want to tell you about a woman named ...

4460. Priceless!

Matthew 13:44-46

Sermon

King Duncan

... tell you about someone who learned that the hard way. A fifty-year-old man named Michael was visiting the one‑hundred‑year‑old Victoria Falls Bridge linking Zimbabwe and Zambia. This bridge is nearly as long as a football field. It offers a spectacular view of a large chasm below. Unfortunately, a continuous spray from a massive waterfall makes the rocks and vegetation along the lip of that chasm as slippery as a slide at a water park, but far less tolerant of error. While taking pictures at the falls ...

4461. God’s HS Smart App is Always Watching

Genesis 1:1-2:3

Sermon

Lori Wagner

... to tolerate violence. God does ask us to manage God’s world and relationships wisely, to think before we act, to battle evil with good, to remember who we are, and who we want to be when we stand before that Heavenly Board of Directors, who viewed our worldly actions with that Holy Spirit app. In the first Spiderman movie, young Peter Parker is given sound advice by his Uncle, who tells him, “With great power comes great responsibility.” The more power we claim, the more we need to use it wisely, to ...

I've always felt that a person's intelligence is directly reflected by the number of conflicting points of view he can entertain simultaneously on the same topic.

Abigail Adams

At any given moment life is completely senseless. But viewed over a period, it seems to reveal itself as an organism existing in time, having a purpose, tending in a certain direction.

Aldous Huxley

Great is truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about truth. By simply not mentioning certain subjects... totalitarian propagandists have influenced opinion much more effectively than they could have by the most eloquent denunciations.

Aldous Huxley

The greatest triumphs of propaganda have been accomplished, not by doing something, but by refraining from doing. Great is truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about truth.

Aldous Huxley

The traveller's-eye view of men and women is not satisfying. A man might spend his life in trains and restaurants and know nothing of humanity at the end. To know, one must be an actor as well as a spectator.

Aldous Huxley

Appealing workplaces are to be avoided. One wants a room with no view, so imagination can meet memory in the dark.

Annie Dillard

The view of Jerusalem is the history of the world; it is more, it is the history of earth and of heaven.

Benjamin Disraeli

From the Taoist point of view, the natural result of this harmonious way of living is happiness.

Benjamin Hoff

A truer image of the world, I think, is obtained by picturing things as entering into the stream of time from an eternal world outside, than from a view which regards time as the devouring tyrant of all that is.

Bertrand Russell

Those who forget good and evil and seek only to know the facts are more likely to achieve good than those who view the world through the distorting medium of their own desires.

Bertrand Russell

My view of social media is that it is a set of tools, not a religion.

Bill Keller

When we wish to correct with advantage and to show another that he errs, we must notice from what side he views the matter, for on that side it is usually true, and admit that truth to him, but reveal to him the side on which it is false. He is satisfied with that, for he sees that he was not mistaken and that he only failed to see all sides.

Blaise Pascal

People with a sense of humor tend to be less egocentric and more realistic in their view of the world and more humble in moments of success and less defeated in times of travail.

Bob Newhart

A mistake made by many people with great convictions is that they will let nothing stand in the way of their views, not even kindness.
