More Than a Bystander - Father's Day
Donald Cantrell
Matthew 27:32, Mark 15:21, Luke 23:26
Theme: ''We need more fathers like Simon of Cyrene''
Mat 27:32 KJV - And as they came out, they found a man of Cyrene, Simon by name: him they compelled to bear his cross.
Mar 15:21 KJV - And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross.
Luk 23:26 KJV - And as they led him away, they laid hold upon one Simon, a Cyrenian, coming out of the country, and on him they laid the cross, that he might bear [it] after Jesus.
I - The Setting of Simon
II - The Showcasing of Simon
III - The Selection of Simon
IV - The Shock of Simon
V - The Story of Simon
This sermon contains a fully alliterated outline, with sub-points.
