Have you ever watched a cat hunt? I saw a neighborhood cat creep up on a rabbit. When the cat was about 20’ away, the rabbit saw the cat. They both froze not moving a muscle. The rabbit’s heart was probably beating 200mph waiting to see if this thing was a threat. They actually sat there for a good

Have you ever been told something so thrilling that you could not be quiet? There had to be a party going on in heaven!
Angels by their nature worship, serve, and represent God. Now the promise of the ages to all mankind had come.

I have a water filter attached to my kitchen sink at home. The water normally smells bad, tastes bad, because it has stuff in it. When the water comes into the filter, the filter holds on to all the bad stuff. It doesn’t allow the bad stuff to go on through.

What words would you have had for Adam and Eve after they were evicted from the Garden? Perhaps you might have said something like this: “It was a paradise, Adam and Eve! What more could you ask for? There were all kinds of fruit trees in the Garden and you were free to eat of every fruit

Have you ever been in a parade? It’s a fun thing to do. When I was a boy scout I was in several parades. Today I want to talk about one of the most famous parades in history - Jesus’ triumphal entry into Jerusalem.

I have always loved talking about faith. Faith is not just the substance of things hoped for or the evidence of things unseen or the means through which believers obtain good report. Indeed, faith is much more than that. Faith is the basis; the foundation of our christianity. It is the vehicle

I have served under pastors with whom I had a wonderful relationship and I have also served where there was stress in the relationship.
I have listened to men hack, and I have listened to them in a monotonous whisper.
