    We all know the story of Abraham and Isaac, how God told him to the mountain and sacrifice his son.

    First of a series based on the Johannine letters: our response to overwhelming need is first of all a discovery of who we are; then a commitment to maximum effort; and finally a discovery of where our passion lies. This will energize us.

    I invite you today on an imaginary trip. Let’s walk through just one day in a needy world. Just imagine a few hours in a world that asks us for more than we can possibly give: You are awakened early by the phone’s insistent ringing; you hear the voice of a member of your family.

    So how do we rightly relate to one another in our small groups? I have found there is no reason to "reinvent the wheel" in responding to this question. Dietrich Bonhoeffer, in his classic work, Life Together, explains 7 ways to serve your small group.

    Last week, I used an illustration to show that Jesus should be the center of our small group meetings. He is the real leader of the small group. He is alive. He comes to us in the person of the Holy Spirit. And he is Lord. But lying underneath this goal of our gathering is the reality that we ...read more

    Origianlly used for a morning worship service, most recently used at a funeral for a 23yr old lady who died of cancer...easily adaptable for any regualr service or funeral service.

    What comes to your mind when I say "NEW"? What do you think of? I believe I would have to say that I think of Christmas. At Christmas, we get those "new" things. You may have thought of a new car or new house…maybe a new suit of clothes or a new baby even. But when you really stop to think ...read more

    I was asked to share my feelings about suicide by the husband, who had been hurt many years earlier by some inappropriate comments by a pastor upon the suicide death of his friend.

    “My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth. And by this we know that we are of the truth, and shall assure our hearts before Him. For if our hearts condemns us, God is greater than our heart, and knows all things. Beloved, if our heart does not ...read more

    The other day I was playing with my sons. We were building a house out of blocks. Up and up the structure went until it would reach a certain point, and, then it toppled over. So we’d start over. Higher and higher the blocks would go until they fell over. This happened a couple of times and ...read more

    The key in becoming infectious in our faith is to make sure that we have set apart Christ as Lord in our lives. When we are striving to live under the control of Christ, people will notice and will then ask us to explain the reason for the hope that we h

    How To Be Ready Rev. Brian Bill 2/4/01 It’s fun to compare how life today is different from life 500 years ago.

    Faith for my deliverance is not faith in God. Faith means, whether I am visibly delivered or not, I will stick to my belief that God is love. There are some things only learned in a fiery furnace.

    Christ’s Positive Answer for Every Negative Problem (I John 3:18-20) "Let us love not merely in theory or in speech but in deed and in truth.
