    1980s PM Principles for the Family

    Sunday evening service at Indianapolis (IN) First Church of the Nazarene, likely in the early 1980s. Drawing from the book of Proverbs, this message has many illustrations from his own family, especially his father.

    8.23.1992 PM Holiness, Part 2 (Hebrews 12:18-29)

    Sunday evening service at Broken Arrow (OK) First Church of the Nazarene, August 23, 1992. This sermon opens with a confession of the Scripture reference error from the morning message (as noted in previous episode). Also to note, the volume of this episode is muffled at times. Rev. Stipp gives this an alternate title of "You Ain't Seen Nothin' Yet," drawing contrasts between Mt. Sinai and Mt. Zion, referencing both Hebrews 12:18-29 and Exodus 19:10-25. He highlights that we belong to Zion, the heavenly Kingdom which cannot be shaken, and we are God's ambassadors here. The closing begins at 24:33, leaving out the closing hymn ("There's a Great Day Coming") but including the closing thoughts and prayer.

    8.23.1992 Without Holiness... (Hebrews 12:14-19)

    Sunday morning service at Broken Arrow (OK) First Church of the Nazarene, August 23, 1992. This message focuses on the phrase "without holiness no one will see the Lord" from Hebrews 12:14. Rev. Stipp defines holiness, explains that it is meant for this life, and discusses how to live in peace and live in holiness, as this is God's will for his people. He ties this to God's grace, to 1 Thessalonians 4:3-8, and to the Beatitudes (the pure in heart will see God). He also explains the significance of what Esau missed in holiness when he sold his birthright, drawing the parallel to the church as the firstborn. Finally, he emphasizes that sanctification is more than a commitment on our part; it is the work of God within us to purify our hearts. The closing begins at 27:22 with the hymn "Whiter Than Snow" and the closing prayer at 32:21. One Scripture reference ("Jesus wept") is misquoted as Luke 2:52, but should have been John 11:35.

    8.9.1992 Suffering Affliction (Revelation 2:8-11)

    Sunday morning service at Broken Arrow (OK) First Church of the Nazarene, August 9, 1992. This message gives historical context to the church at Smyrna, addressed in the passage from Revelation, and making application to the Christian life today.

    11.11.1991 The Kingdom of Heaven (John 14)

    Sunday morning service at Broken Arrow (OK) First Church of the Nazarene, November 11, 1991. This message outlines three main usages of the word "heaven" in Scripture and what is meant by each one: God's realm here on earth, the sky, and God's dwelling place above. There are Scriptural examples of each and some acknowledgement of the confusion over them as well, eventually landing in John 14. The message concludes with a story about the Stipp family's foreign exchange student from Japan. The story is abruptly cut off and the message and is incomplete, but seemed 'complete enough' to publish.

    3.22.1992 PM God's message to the exiles

    Sunday evening service at Broken Arrow (OK) First Church of the Nazarene, March 22, 1992. This message outlines four things God said to the Israelites while they were in exile in Babylon, and which are echoed by Jesus, to us, in the New Testament: - I will be with you (v. 10) - I will redeem you (v. 11) - I will strengthen and protect you (v. 15) - I will guide your future (v. 25)

  7. Mar 17

    3.22.1992 Faithfulness (Exodus 34)

    Sunday morning service at Broken Arrow (OK) First Church of the Nazarene, March 22, 1992. This message draws from Exodus 34 to examine the faithfulness of God (His security and truth) and our faithfulness to Him. 30:51 begins the closing comments, challenge, and prayer

  8. 05/29/2023

    12.9.1990 Preparing the Way of the Lord (Isaiah 40:1-5)

    Sunday morning service at Broken Arrow (OK) First Church of the Nazarene, December 9, 1990. This message on the second Sunday of Advent paints a picture that the way to Bethlehem is through the message of John the Baptist: through repentance.
