    After taking most of Romans 2 to explain that there is no distinction between Jew and Gentile, Paul throws a curve in Romans 3:1. Turns out, there is an advantage to being a Jew after all.

    Good morning! Please open your Bibles to Romans 3. I appreciate Lauren reading the Scripture passage for us earlier. You guys should be proud of Lauren. This year she is taking leadership in the State of Alabama as one of the emerging leaders identified by the Alabama WMU, and this past weekend ...read more

    Many of us have watched movies of wild animals on television. I enjoy watching them until they become vicious and start attacking and devouring each other.

    I guess when they get like this, it reminds me of many church members that I know. There are many mean people in the world, and at times we find some of them within the church. That is, they are unkind and vicious in the way they treat others! Illus: They remind me of the story of President ...read more

    I read of this very foolish man named Mike the other day who live on a farm in a rural area with his pregnant wife.

    With no running water, no electricity, etc. one night, Mikes' wife begins to deliver a baby. The local doctor is there in attendance. Mike said, "What d'ya want me to do, Doctor?" "Hold the lantern, Mike. Here it comes!" The doctor delivers the child and holds it ...read more

    Serving the Lord is not all that complicated. Just serve Him faithfully and humbly. Every day, just humbly do what He asks you to do and leave the results up to Him.

    I’ve had some experience in signing contracts with various musicians over the years to do concerts in the church. Those contracts spell out the details of what each party expects, and they contain few, if any, surprises. That’s not the case with some of the big-name entertainers. For example, Van ...read more

    To change the world, go to the back of the line, imitate people like Paul, and get something done.

    Evan Almighty is the story of freshman congressman Evan Baxter, whose main campaign slogan was “change the world.” When he asks for God's help to achieve his goal, God responds in an unusual way—He commands Evan to build an ark in order to rescue a multitude of wild animals. As Evan ...read more

    Being Servants And Stewards Of God Series

    We can learn from the words of Paul to his accusers the perspectives we need to adopt in the face of opposition in ministry. Paul understands where his authority comes from, knows to whom he is accountable, and trusts in God's final appraisal of his works.

    1 Cor 4:1-5 Being Servants and Stewards of God We have covered the first 3 chapters of 1 Corinthians over the last 10 weeks. Today is our 11th Sunday on this book. • I believe by now we have an idea of the problems the church in Corinth is facing. • Surely this is not a happy thing for Paul, who ...read more

    Using Jeremiah's struggle "not to quit" during a period of frustration, persecution, and exhaustion, we can learn to stand firm in adversity and allow God to empower us to keep living out and proclaiming the Gospel.

    WHEN IT COMES TO OUR FAITH AND ESPECIALLY MINISTERING IN THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST, IT STILL CAN MAKE US CRINGE, IF NOT BRISTLE INSIDE, WHEN WE HEAR OTHERS DEMAND THAT WE BE MORE TOLERANT, SENSITIVE, PROGRESSIVE AND INCLUSIVE.

    Again we would like to turn our attention to those passages in the Bible that deal with our being stewards of the money God has blessed us with.

    I would like to remind you that stewardship is taught in both the OLD and the NEW TESTAMENTS. In Matthew 23, Jesus rebuked the scribes and Pharisees for what they were NOT DOING, while recognizing what THEY WERE DOING. He noted that they were careful to tithe of every plant that produced ...read more

    Today we want to look again at the scriptures to see what is required of us if we are to be good stewards.

    Our text says, “Moreover it is required in stewards, that a man be found faithful.” EVERYONE here today is a steward. That is, everyone here has been entrusted by God with certain things. We have... • Been entrusted with the gospel. • Been entrusted with talents. (Some more than others.) • Been ...read more

    In a previous message we looked at GOD’S PURPOSE IN THE BAD that comes our way. When the bad comes our way, we need to remember Romans 8:28. “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose
