This week we begin the first of three weeks in what is probably the best known sermon we have from Jesus. (Omar did the teaching.)
Matthew 05.mp3 (Omar Yamout)

Central Streaming: The Vine
Ezekiel prophesies against Jerusalem using the picture of charred and useless vine wood to illustrate the current state of the city. Jesus declares himself to be the true vine, telling us we need to abide in him.
The Skill of Facing Frustration
This little tidbit from struck me as amazingly, seriously and sort of humorously on target:
The weakness that many Christians encounter today is that of frustration. While the modern emphasis on efficiency has produced quick ways to do many things, there is no shortcut to effective evangelism. This may be the single biggest challenge that Western missionaries will face in the twenty-first century. They are not skilled at facing frustration, but if they are to be effective missionaries they will have to master that skill.

The Unpopular Doctrine of Hell: Part 5 of 5
Additional Information
This is the concluding post on this unpopular topic. While preparing for the seminar I read several older sermons on the topic of hell – all available online – just to see what they were like. There are links to these below, all of which are downloadable PDFs. Finally, the whole idea for the Saturday Seminar at Calvary Chapel Bible College Indianapolis (CCBCi) grew out of an assignment for a theolodgy class with Trinity Evangelical Divinity School (TEDS). That paper is also accessible below. Thanks for your interest!
