Hi and some questions

What an amazing site and my thanks to all who have worked so hard to not only compile the resources but to make it available, for free, to others!

Questions:

1. Do you prefer to read the sermons or to hear them?
2. Which sermons (speakers)have ministered the most to you?
3. When you research or seek further information/understanding do you find it easier to search by topic, scripture or by speaker?

I appreciate your answers.

Hi Maria and welcome to SI. Im Elias. This is a great blessing to the body of Christ. I have been greatly blessed. I hope you are too.

1. I prefer to listen though every now and then i read.
2. Times Square Church staff: David Wilkerson and Carter Conlon
3. Theres no search feature on here. it was taken down not too long ago. but i usually do google searches on the speaker and what the speaker thinks of an issue

blessings.

Thanks Elias and appreciate the update on the "no search feature". I have bookmarked SI and know I will find it an invaluable resource as well as bringing personal growth and insight.

Thanks Noah for your list of "favourites" and for answering the questions I had posted.

With appreciation.

1. Listening to sermons, I put them on my iPod.
2. See below
3. I don't search too often and if I do I use google to search this site. ( site:sermonindex name or topic )

About what I listen to you, to be honest, I’ve found it really depends on where I’m at in my journey about who I listen to and for how long. I’ve spent a few months to a couple of years listening to one person (i.e. Art Katz, or Zac Poonen, and Derek Prince).

Here are a few of my favorites; meaning I have listened to these over and over:

Lovers of Truth by Zac Poonen

God bless,

100fold thanks for the list of folks that have offered encouragement to you and for the welcome.

With appreciation.

Wow Lisa. Thank you for the links of some of your favourites. As a lot of the names on the site are unfamiliar this is helpful to know.

Blessings to you,

Maria

Welcome to SI! The site and people here have helped me mature and grow so much!

1. I prefer a bit of both if the preacher has a transcript of their sermon I like to have that up while the sermon itself is going.

2. Paris Reidhead and Zac Poonen. Paris Reidhead's Ten Shekels and a Shirt has played a huge roll in shaping my thoughts and intentions in Christianity. And Brother Zac Poonen is Pentecostal but incredibly humble and wise in his teachings, he always challenges me to be a better person in Christ's strength.

3. Generally by Topic is what I go with.

Thanks mguldner... I'm finding that I like the audio but, like you, I like to have a transcript at well. Appreciate your sharing some of the teachers who have challenged you in the faith. I will make may way through some of these names.

Blessings to you.

I have really appreciated the feedback (and the "welcomes"). I am mulling over the question, for myself and for anyone who read this post ~

What preaching/teaching has changed you the most?

Right now I am being challenged by the audio's of Michael Howard https://www.sermonindex.net/modules/mydownloads/viewcat.php?cid=1379

Well the Holy Spirit who convicts but i would say the most powerful message i have heard on here is "A call to Anguish" by David wilkerson.

Its a really intense message. Wilkerson is calling the church to share God's heart for a lost world. A must listen

Thanks Elias and how specially poignant now that he has passed away. I will bookmark this one to listen to for sure.

Maria

God be with you in Spirit and in Truth, my fellow Canuck.
To answer your questions:
1) That all depends on where I believe the Spirit of God is leading me, and wanting to inform me of - of way of rebuke, or to lift up my eyes to Him, etc
2)I love Gerhard du Toit, and Paris Reidhead's sermons... But I love others as well like Keith Daniel, BB Caldwell, Derek Milton, etc. Also, some of the "text sermons" from older men of God like AB Simpson, etc
3)Mostly all the time, I don't do a search... They just "come to me" by various means, but use discernment - Mostly where Christ is lifted up I go to, and stay away from idolizing doctrines, because Christ is the Doctrine of Truth. So, when we examine His Life and Spirit, we get our Doctrine from Him.

Thank you for your precious time. Shalom

Dear Yeshuasboy, I love how you express it depends on the Holy Spirit's leading. Thank you for the list of names and resources and the caution for discernment.

Blessings to you and yours.

Thanks Lisa for this great list AND the links. I really like Derek Prince and I've been hearing a lot about Zac Poonen.
Thank you for taking time to respond.

Blessings, Maria
