What if I were to tell you I’ve taped a $1 bill under a pew somewhere in here this morning? Some of you are already looking for it! I didn’t even tell you you could have it! I didn’t even say I really did it! Still, if there’s even a slight chance that I might have done that, some of you are

When an emergency medical technician arrives at the scene of an accident, he knows he may have only a few minutes to save a victim’s life. He will waste none of those minutes in combing the patient’s hair, brushing his clothes, or checking for marks of identification. He will move as swiftly as

a) Ever see the movie Clue? Albert Einstein and his colleagues pass off a local garage mechanic as some surprise genius, coaching him so that he can give lectures on physics to gatherings of scholars (it was all a match-making scheme to get him hooked up with Einstein’s niece). Of course, it was so

I remember in the Batman movie the Joker once said to Vickie Vail, "I may be smiling on the outside, but I am crying within." What about you today? Are you crying within? Are you in need of soul rest? Then why don’t you come to Jesus today? He will give you rest. He will give you internal peace. He

A Quaker farmer was having a hard time with his mule. No matter what he tried the mule would not get up. He told the mule I am a Quaker and you know I cannot hit you and I cannot curse you. However, I can sell you to my neighbor and he is not a Quaker and can beat the living daylights out of you.

During the war between the states, a northern pow escaped from his captors. For hours and days he wandered through the woods seeking the union lines and the safety of his companions. Finally, he approached a camp trying to figure out if it was friend or foe. Within minutes, he was surrounded by the

Ron Jon Surf Shop has a commercial they used to run all the time. You may remember the ad saying, “Ron Jon Surf Shop, not one of many, but one of a kind.” Christians understand that Jesus Christ is not one of many, to fit in somewhere between Buddha, Mohammed, and Confucius. He is not one of many

Our kids are wet cement!
When cement is still wet, it will take the form of the form into which it is poured. Once it dries and becomes hard, it can take a jack hammer to break it up and all you will have left is broken pieces. It will never be the same again!

TOO IMPORTANT FOR MINISTRY
Years ago the retired church janitor had passed away and the family had asked the Senior Pastor to do the funeral services. The Senior Pastor informed me that I was to do the funeral service and not he, because, (and I am not making this up) because, “as senior pastor,

KEEPING THE AQUARIUM
"With all our education, our fine buildings, our image of the church, we are doing less to win people to Christ than our unschooled forefathers did. We're no longer fishers of men, but keepers of the aquarium, and we spend most of our time swiping fish from each other's bowl."

The Truth is that God, who needs nothing, wants us. The Truth is that we–all of us–have discounted that divine presence and desire, perhaps thinking it’s too good to be true. And so, like Peter, the Rock, we turn to God when He invites us to act in goodness, truth and beauty. We listen to Him

The recent problems in our economy can be used as a wakeup call for us all. Maybe this current anxiety will turn many eyes toward God. The church is often at its best in tragedy and calamity. In 1867, many banks and factories were closing in America. Because of these problems, Jeremiah Lanphier
