What Would Jesus Say 2: THE DONALD (Trump)?
12/07/2015 Duración: 48minWhat Would Jesus Say to THE DONALD (Trump)? I’d think he’d say Donald I like your real talk. I mean who does not like real talk. Donald just say it like it is. I believe Jesus would say I like that. But then Jesus might tell Donald some money stories. Because Donald in hyped up on money. I love it when Forbes, or Business Week try to guess Donald’s net worth. They are always wrong because Donald is always worth more than you can guess. At this point Forbes says Donald in worth about 4.1 Billion that with a Capital B. but Donald says they are wrong because he worth is more like 9 billion. Forbes guessed that Donald’s brand is about 200 million but the DONALD say it about 3-Billion. Don cares about what you think about him and his money. Donald is to be congratulated he’s pulled himself and his empire out of bankruptcy at least three times. The real-estate market has waxed and wained but the DONALD is still standing. So what would Jesus say to Donald? I think we can find out as we look at what Jesus had to s

What Would Jesus Say To: Dylan Roof?
28/06/2015 Duración: 54minWe’ve heard all types of things these last few days. He’s been called MONSTER, RACIST, MURDERER, CRAZY, EVIL, SATAN INSPIRED, What would YOU say to DYLANN? One Heartfelt Christian Response When we encounter such senseless violence, we sometimes instinctively develop ‘animosity’ or ‘hatred’ towards the ‘Sinner’ rather than towards the ‘Sin’. However, it is important that we remember that although our offenses may not be as ‘Radical’ as Dylann’s — by definition, we are all offenders nonetheless because we all have fallen victim to Sin at some point in our lives (no matter the ‘flavor’) Yet after the news broke, hundreds of people immediately became Angry with the shooter and condemned not only his actions, but some even condemned the young man himself (which is what Christians are warned against) #1. DYLAN Hate in a LEARNED behavior, you can unlearn it #2. DYLAN Your sin has CONSEQUENCES #3. DYLAN your sin does not have to be FATAL or FINAL #4. DYLAN FORGIVENESS is yours IF you will receive IT

What Would Jesus Say To GRADS?
14/06/2015 Duración: 34minToday I want to ask the question what would Jesus Say to the Class of 2015. “Don't hoard treasure down here where it gets eaten by moths and corroded by rust or––worse! ––stolen by burglars. Stockpile treasure in heaven, where it's safe from moth and rust and burglars. It's obvious, isn't it? The place where your treasure is, is the place you will most want to be, and end up being. Matthew 6:19-21 (MSG)

31/05/2015 Duración: 40minWe’re talking about fame today. We’re talking about Kim Kardashian. Curvaceous Kim Kardashian, marketing guru Kim Kardashian. What would Jesus say to Kim Kardashian? What a great question. Known for her fashion, her family and most of all for ‘being famous,’ Kim Kardashian is one of today’s most sought after celebrities. She’s adored by millions of fans around the world, and is instantly recognized on camera and on the street. So what would Jesus say to this modern day cultural icon? What would Jesus say to Kim Kardashian? Well, what would he say to you? What would he say to you? #1. MAKE ME FAMOUS. You’ll never be known until you’ve made him well-known. Have you allowed him to come inside your heart of hearts? Have you given him the totality of who you are? #2. I VAULE YOUR VURNABILITY Have you gotten vulnerable before God? “You’re God. I’m not.” #3. YOUR PAST DOESN’T DETERMINE YOUR FUTURE. Even though your past is checkered, even though your reputation isn’t the best, make this day a game-changer, a piv

What Would Jesus Say To The Baltimore Crowd
23/05/2015 Duración: 55minToday I want to do something a little different as I ask the question what would Jesus say to the folks in Baltimore City. I know the riot/uprising/protest are in the past, the Baltimore Orioles are back at Camden Yards, and the burned out buildings are boarded up and the cars towed away. I purposely waited on this message because our live in the moment media, and our soundbite reality has trained us to pay attention to the most recent happening, tragedy, injustice etc. Despite the time that has passed since the Baltimore situation. I believe that Jesus would have some things to share with the Baltimore crowd. A good question that I would ask if I were sitting where you are is “James who are you referring to when you say the Baltimore crowd?” I’m glad you asked. Here they are: Protestors Police Provocateurs Politicians Pundits Peace Makers Peeps (People of God) I believe each of these groups pay a role in the Baltimore situation and I believe Jesus would have something to say to each of them. I want to

He’s known for his larger-than-life personality, recognized by folks all over the DMV and beyond. You may love him or hate him (well us Christians don’t hate people we hate things) and yet he unquestionably a business genius. He is also worth $1.7 billion.

PROVERBS: POST-IT-NOTES FROM GOD 4
25/01/2015 Duración: 44minKEY VERSES Lots of people flock around a generous person; everyone's a friend to the philanthropist.

PROVERBS: POST-IT-NOTES FROM GOD 3
18/01/2015 Duración: 49minThe truth is that for most of us, 2015 would be a great year if we could learn to handle our finances better. Regardless of how much money you earn, or what you bring in annually, figuring out what to do with your money is very important. I think it's not only important to you as a person, but I think it's also something that is important to God! The bible talks a lot about money. Jesus talked a lot about money... and its been said that preachers talk a lot about wanting your money! But if we are honest, the bible isn’t generally our primary source for deciding what to do with our money. In fact, we all have myths about money. MYTHS LIKE: If I had more money, I would be happier - or this is my money - or money can bring me security. These myths, if we are not careful, will ultimately override what God says about money. REAL TALK: if we let myths run our money then we will end up broke. Here’s the truth about debt - it traps and it binds you. The difference between someone who has debt and someone who own

PROVERBS: POST-IT-NOTES FROM GOD 2
11/01/2015 Duración: 44minIf anyone knows a thing or two about money, it’s Solomon. And apparently we need help in managing our money, sixty-four percent of all families argue over money (I’m surprised it’s not higher), and fifty-four percent of all divorces are over money. Let’s look at some of the principles God gives us for financial freedom from Proverbs. The world of the generous gets larger and larger; the world of the stingy gets smaller and smaller. The one who blesses others is abundantly blessed; those who help others are helped. Curses on those who drive a hard bargain! Blessings on all who play fair and square! The one who seeks good finds delight; the student of evil becomes evil. A life devoted to things is a dead life, a stump; a God–shaped life is a flourishing tree. Proverbs 11:24-11:28 (MSG)

PROVERBS: POST-IT-NOTES FROM GOD 1
04/01/2015 Duración: 59min10 New Year’s Resolutions from the Wisest Man Who Ever Lived. This is the 1st Sunday of the New Year. You know, when you think about it, all New Year’s Resolutions basically fall into 3 categories. They deal with: 1. Things to make us look better and live longer. 2. Things to make us have more. 3. Things that will help us to get along with everyone. I call them - Longevity, Prosperity and Peace. I have often said that we could find an answer in God’s word for any question or situation of life if we would just look. So what is there in God’s Word about New Year’s Resolutions? Well there not called New Year’s Resolutions but I don’t think you could do better. I’m reading from the book of Proverbs - Chapter 3. I’m titling this sermon 10 New Year’s Resolutions From The Wisest Man That Ever Lived.

Easter 2014
20/04/2014 Duración: 40minThe greatest symbol of new life is found in an empty tomb! That what the angel said to the tomb visitors that first Easter morning. Listen in on the conversation The angel spoke to the women: "There is nothing to fear here. I know you're looking for Jesus, the One they nailed to the cross. He is not here. He was raised, just as he said. Come and look at the place where he was placed. "Now, get on your way quickly and tell his disciples, 'He is risen from the dead.” Matthew 28:5-7 (MSG) Paul says that if we are in relationship with the God who raised Jesus from the dead we to will be raised to newness of life. It stands to reason, doesn't it, that if the alive–and–present God who raised Jesus from the dead moves into your life, he'll do the same thing in you that he did in Jesus, bringing you alive to himself? When God lives and breathes in you (and he does, as surely as he did in Jesus), you are delivered from that dead life. With his Spirit living in you, your body will be as alive as Christ’s.” Romans 8:

Red Letter Day: Father Forgive Them
13/04/2014 Duración: 40minWe are looking at the words of Jesus. In Luke 23:34, Jesus is actually saying the very first words as He hung on the cross. Now, Jesus had just been beaten. He had just been humiliated, spit on, he'd been punched in the face over and over, beaten with a rod. He was flogged 39 times with this evil whip thing, with bone and stones and stuff, where you would whip the person and flesh would come out. He was humiliated to a point where He was unrecognizable because of the bodily damage that was done to Him, not to mention the emotional damage of creation doing this travesty to the creator. Two others, both criminals, were taken along with him for execution. When they got to the place called Skull Hill, they crucified him, along with the criminals, one on his right, the other on his left. Luke 23:32-33 (MSG) He stands in the middle and He looks down on His accusers, and He looks down on those Roman soldiers that just humiliated Him and beat Him and were ruthless. He looks down on those scribes and Pharisees that

Red Letter Day: Why Have You Abandoned Me?
06/04/2014 Duración: 50minYou may ask, why did God abandon Jesus? My God, my God, Why have you forsaken me? The answer is found in Scripture, 2 Corinthians 5:21, The Bible says: God put the wrong on him (Jesus) who never did anything wrong, God put the wrong (sin) on (Jesus) why? so we could be put right with God. 2 Corinthians 5:21 (MSG) Why did God have to abandon Jesus? Because Jesus became sin. On the cross, He became a murderer and adulterer, he became lust and lying, God put on him our addictions to pornography , our cheating, and racism and hatred, and any other sin that's existed in this world; Jesus became sin and God had to look away because His eyes are too righteous to even look upon sin. He died for our sins, so that our sins can be forgiven. When everyone around the cross didn't understand, God put the wrong on him, who never did anything wrong, so we could be put right with God.

Leading at Home: "God's Requirements for His Families"
30/03/2014 Duración: 47minLeading at Home: "God's Requirements for His Families" Wives, submit yourselves to your own husbands as you do to the Lord. For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior. Now as the church submits to Christ, so also wives should submit to their husbands in everything. Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church— for we are members of his body. “For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.” This is a profound myst
