Here, Jesus teaches us that God's people should be characterized by truth-telling at all times, even when it hurts. http://www.gracecentral.org/sermon/oaths http://dl.dropbox.com/u/189109/unposted%20grace%20central%20sermons/GCSA20100207.mp3 Sun, 07 Feb 2010 22:17:36 GMT Greg Blosser "You Have Heard It Said… But I Tell You…" sermon_on_the_mount,oaths,sweating,truth,lies,falsehood Tragedy happens. Those like the earthquake that struck the small, poor nation of Haiti in January 2010 may raise questions in our minds -- "Why do these things happen?"; "Is this God's judgment?"; "How can a good God allow this?" While explanations have been offered from all sides, we need to know how to think about and respond biblically to tragedy and suffering in our world. http://www.gracecentral.org/sermon/making-sense-of-tragedy http://www.gracecentral.org/mediafiles/making-sense-of-tragedy.mp3 Sun, 17 Jan 2010 19:54:49 GMT Greg Blosser Making Sense of Tragedy suffering,tragedy,death,disaster,haiti,earthquake 42:31 http://www.gracecentral.org/sermon/1-corinthians-14-9 http://dl.dropbox.com/u/189109/unposted%20grace%20central%20sermons/GCSA20091206.mp3 Sun, 06 Dec 2009 15:26:32 GMT Greg Blosser What Are You Waiting For? - Advent 2009 Advent is a season of anticipation -- a time of waiting. We reflect on the first coming of Christ, and we wait eagerly for his second coming to make all things right. On this first Sunday of Advent, we look at Hebrews chapter 9 and see that, though we wait for Christ, there are blessings from him that we no longer have to wait for. http://www.gracecentral.org/sermon/we-dont-have-to-wait http://www.gracecentral.org/mediafiles/we-dont-have-to-wait.mp3 Sun, 29 Nov 2009 00:33:01 GMT Greg Blosser What Are You Waiting For? - Advent 2009 judgment,advent,longing,anticipation,coming,forgiveness,cleansing,purity 43:36 http://www.gracecentral.org/sermon/you-are-the-light-of-the-world http://www.gracecentral.org/mediafiles/you-are-the-light-of-the-world.mp3 Sun, 22 Nov 2009 05:16:59 GMT Greg Blosser Salt and Light matthew,sermon_on_the_mount,light 36:17 http://www.gracecentral.org/sermon/you-are-the-salt-of-the-earth http://www.gracecentral.org/mediafiles/you-are-the-salt-of-the-earth.mp3 Sun, 15 Nov 2009 05:26:08 GMT Greg Blosser Salt and Light matthew,sermon_on_the_mount,salt,preservation 32:32 What did Jesus mean when he said "blessed are the meek"? Was he saying that the way to God's blessing is through weakness? Through allowing themselves to be treated as a doormat? By no means! Here we'll see that meekness is not weakness, and what it really means to be meek. http://www.gracecentral.org/sermon/what-the-meek-know http://www.gracecentral.org/mediafiles/what-the-meek-know.mp3 Sun, 27 Sep 2009 23:31:34 GMT Greg Blosser The Upside-Down Life: The Beatitudes sermon_on_the_mount,beatitudes,matthew,blessing,meek,meekness,vindication 44:49 In what's commonly called "The Beatitudes", Jesus taught his followers what it truly means to live a life that is "blessed" by God. Their ideas of "blessing" were turned upside-down by Christ's teaching, and so this series on the Beatitudes is titled "The Upside-Down Life". Jesus taught that those who mourn are "blessed". What did he mean when he said this? We'll see here that the heart that mourns is a heart that is compassionate for others, a heart that is contrite over its own sin, and a heart that will be comforted by Jesus. http://www.gracecentral.org/sermon/jesus-wants-to-break-your-heart http://www.gracecentral.org/mediafiles/jesus-wants-to-break-your-heart.mp3 Sun, 20 Sep 2009 02:05:27 GMT Greg Blosser The Upside-Down Life: The Beatitudes sermon_on_the_mount,beatitudes,mourning,matthew,blessing,compassion,contrition,repentance,comfort 46:11 In what's commonly called "The Beatitudes", Jesus taught his followers what it truly means to live a life that is "blessed" by God. Their ideas of "blessing" were turned upside-down by Christ's teaching, and so this new series on the Beatitudes is called "The Upside-Down Life". In this first sermon in the series, Greg Blosser expounds on what Jesus meant when he said "Blessed are the poor in spirit". Here we'll see that the life blessed by God is blessed with the Kingdom of God, the knowledge of God, and the grace of God. http://www.gracecentral.org/sermon/blessed-are-the-bankrupt http://www.gracecentral.org/mediafiles/blessed-are-the-bankrupt.mp3 Sun, 13 Sep 2009 02:00:34 GMT Greg Blosser The Upside-Down Life: The Beatitudes matthew,blessing,beatitudes,sermon_on_the_mount 45:22
