I want you to cross reference my sermons with God’s Word. Double-check to see if I have support for what I am teaching. If I was a doctor and told you that a lump on your back was not cancerous and you shouldn’t worry about it, but I see that you are doubtful about my prognosis, I would encourage

A few weeks ago I was working with Bridge town ministries and we were washing homeless people’s feet underneath the Burn Side Bridge. I know that Christ desires to touch and hold and love all those people. When I see those homeless people I am scared and I feel awkward and uncomfortable thinking

When I was in the army they had what many of you may have heard night vision goggles in the police department they used them to.
These interesting binoculars enabled the soldier to see even in the event there was no light and the area was dark.
Impossible no it was very possible for this

In my work, I have been involved in a Community Garden Project. I am not a gardener. I do not have the patience to wait and see the plants growing. My technical expertise is limited to “green side up” Yet some of the volunteers I was working with will never see the results of their work. I was

When I was flying back from the Middle East, the aircraft flew high over the Egyptian desert where there was nothing but yellow sand and then there came into view the River Nile. On either bank of the river there were broad bands of green vegetation. The river brought life. There was moisture

I heard about an expert in diamonds who happened to be seated on an airplane beside a woman with a huge diamond on her finger. Finally, the man introduced himself and said, "I couldn’t help but notice your beautiful diamond. I am an expert in precious stones. Please tell me about that stone." She

A dear lady in the church I serve shared with me a poem she cut out of a magazine over 60 years ago. It has the spirit of what Dr. Graham’s mother felt about being a mother:
A Mother’s Prayer
Sing me no eulogy of praise,
Give me no hallowed stool;
Just let me be my children’s friend,

Suppose I were to stand before you today and hold up this object (in this case, a piece of chewing gum) and tell you that it is a piece of gum.
-How would you know that what I am saying is true? You could assume that I am telling the truth because you know that I am generally truthful.
-You

I read a parable or story many years ago. The first weather storm hit the area suddenly and the temperature dropped fast.
A POISONOUS SNAKE was dying by the side of the road. A young teenage boy stopped and looked at the snake. The poisonous snake had a LURE to this young man. He picked up a stick

I read the story this week, of a woman who was shamed and brought closer to God by someone the world would over look.
“We were the only family with children in the restaurant. I sat Erik in a high chair and noticed everyone was quietly eating and talking. Suddenly, Erik squealed with glee and

I remember seeing some shorts to a movie once where a millionaire agrees to pay a couple a million dollars if the wife will sleep with him for one night. What would you do? The answer to that question tests your character. Impatience is often willing to sleep with the enemy to achieve it's

I will close with a record of something God did 130 years go in New York City. It illustrates how God has started every harvest time in history, through the concerted prayer of his people. Toward the middle of the last century the glow of earlier religious awakenings had faded. America was

One day as I waited outside of Nigerian medical clinic for a blood test I sat next to a little boy named Ben. It was obvious he had never been in a medical clinic before and he was deathly afraid of what the doctors would do to him. When the man with a white coat called his named, Ben turned to me

I came across a finding while doing a bit of research about the universe. Scientists have theories that currently offer three possible shapes to the universe. The universe is defined in this case as “everything that exists.” The possible shapes are 1) a sphere 2) a flat “plane” 3) a saddle shape. I

Several years ago, Gladys and I went on a mission trip to Colorado. We drove from Marks, Mississippi, across the continental divide, to the plains of Colorado. We have many memories of that trip. We took a lot of pictures. And you know, I am convinced, since Gladys was pregnant and since we
