I prefer to deliver lessons in series, encouraging attendance at each worship service to hear each lesson presented. If done well, this is an amazing tool to keep attendance figures high. I use numerous illustrations during my sermons and Power point presentations and find most enjoy the worship experience.  I hope your congregation can glean much through this attempt at providing truth in an informative, entertaining, yet above all, scriptural teaching experience.

Each one of the sermons below is also indexed in the alphabet listing according to subject matter.  If you are looking for a sermon on a particular subject, you can go to this index and find the subjects within each of these sermons listed alphabetically.  In many cases, these sermons will be listed under several categories as many sermons may deal with different subjects. Also, each subject may have numerous sermons with thoughts about your subject.  Some of those listed deal entirely with your subject, while others may have a section of the sermon dealing with your desired choice. Pick and choose, put several sermons together, or use the sermons just the way they are.  Either way, may God bless you in your efforts to win souls for him!

All sermon titles in blue letters are indexed and published on this site, ready for your use.   The sermons below are being added as I have time (I have all the sermons in outline form, but it takes a while to change each to HTML format and index each sermon as I put it on the web.  Please bear with me during this process!) Thank you for your patience

Come and Dine               This invitation by Jesus was to a group of disheartened and failing disciples!  Jesus, knowing their need for restoration and encouragement reaches out to them and invites them to "COME AND DINE,"

Come and Drink             Thirst is a powerful drive!  Physical thirst can not match however the powerful thirst of the soul! 

Come and Follow Me     These two passages will teach us that many people are not willing to follow Jesus when they really understand what the invitation really means.

Come and Inherit            The Bible teaches us that we are invited to enjoy a great inheritance in Christ, our future is bright and His invitation is clear, “Come … and inherit!” 

Come and Rest               How tired are you, and have you discovered God’s invitation to come and find real rest?  The invitation is a good one!

Don't be afraid...Remember God      What do you do when the voices of discouragement and fear  shout louder than the still small voice of faith?

Don't be afraid... to ask for God's help  Two people found help from God only when their fear of asking for help was replaced by faith!

Don't be afraid... to do the impossible    The only way to do the impossible and not be afraid is to have our focus on God and not on the storms.

Don't be afraid...to honor God               It is not the circumstances of our life that make or break us, it is how we respond to the circumstances in life that make or break us!

"Book of Revelation Series"

NOTE: I have placed a series of 7 messages under Message #2 "The Churches" which is a series of messages on each of the 7 Churches. While not included in this round of series on Revelation, it was its own series at a previous time, but thought it would be good to place it here for those who would like more information on the 7 Churches themselves. In the present series sermon #2 "The Churches" only briefly touches on each Church.

Holiday Sermons

(Although we do not view one day above another, many of our visitors we may have on this day have a different view.  Like Philip did with the Ethiopian Eunuch, if possible, use this to your advantage.  Begin where they are, and teach them about Christ.  If, on the other hand, you feel it may offend you or someone in your congregation to hear a sermon on one of these subjects, you will certainly be blessed by not using them.  Either way, God bless your work!)
