For Thine is the Kingdom and Power and the Glory Forever
“As you know, we dealt with each one of you like a father with his children, urging and encouraging you and pleading that you lead a life worthy of God, who calls you into his own kingdom and glory.” During the past five weeks we’ve been examining the Lord’s Prayer.…
Deliver Us From Evil
Last Sunday was an unusual day because I was here at BBC for almost twelve straight hours so I was really looking forward to a good night’s sleep. I didn’t get it. At 2:55 am I woke up because our smoke detectors went off. Jill and I quickly got up…
Forgive Us Our Sins
As I’ve been working on this series on The Lord’s Prayer one of the things I’ve found very interesting is how closely related the Lord’s Prayer is to the Ten Commandments. Have you ever thought about that? Throughout the Sermon on the Mount in Matthew chapters 5-7, Jesus keeps referring…
Give Us This Day Our Daily Bread
Mother’s Day brings a complicated mix of emotions: for some of us it is a day of joy, gratitude, and happiness; for others it is a day that brings pangs of pain, regret or grief. It is a day when we rejoice with those who rejoice and weep with those…

When Your World is Shaken
While it probably isn’t wise to build ones theology around bumper stickers, I saw two good ones in Orleans on Saturday. One said, “Write your sorrows in sand. Write your blessings in stone.” The other one said, “Jesus is coming, look busy.” I’m glad you’re here looking busy for Easter.…
Carrying the Cross
Today I’m going to tell you about someone who had one of the most incredible experiences any human being has ever had. Many of us would say that Jesus is one person we’d like to meet; how amazing would it be to be close to Jesus, to hear him speak,…
Grander Vision Living
Week Four of Walk Across the Room adapted from the sermon by Bill Hybels Three weeks ago, we asked the question, what if evangelism was as simple as a “walk across the room.” We were reminded the single greatest gift we can offer the people around us is an introduction…
The Power of Story
Week Three of Walk Across the Room adapted from the sermon by Bill Hybels. Good morning, as we begin week 3 of Walk Across the Room series, we are going to start out with a little word association. I will say a word or phrase, and then you say out…
Living in 3D
Week Two of Walk Across the Room adapted from the sermon by Bill Hybels. Today begins the 2nd week of our series called “Just Walk Across the Room.” In these four weeks we are discovering that reaching out to someone far from God is as simple as taking a walk…
