    What are the advantages of being faithfulness to God, the other, and the self?

    Reflection The readings of today (1 Kings 19:9a;11-16, Matthew 5:27-32), call each one of us to reflect on the topic: Faithfulness. Faithfulness to God, means living the Covenantal relationship with God, being in touch with Him all the time or being aware of His presence all the time, wherever ...read more

    What do we expect God to do in our lives in the coming year. What can we expect from the new year that God brings to us. The Life of Elijah shows that God works even through our discouragement.

    A medida que llega el año nuevo, Dios puede tener planes diferentes en mente para nuestras vidas que los que tenemos nosotros. Al mirar a Elijah, vemos cómo Dios nos usa incluso cuando estamos desanimados.

     | 5,103 views

    Self Pity is one of the most destructive and yet most prevalent emotions that people struggle with.

    Self Pity is one of the most destructive and yet most prevalent emotions that I encounter in life as a Pastor talking to people. In the bible Elijah had a bout of Self Pity and ultimately it was this that took him out of leadership 1 Kings 19:14-16 14 And he said, “I have been very zealous for ...read more

    This event in the life of the prophet Elijah will show us to both 'fall into' and 'climb out of' Depression,

    What Are You Doing Here? As the deer longs for streams of water so I long for you, O God. I thirst for God, the living God. When can I go and stand before him?

    We all have times in life when we have had a spiritual high. Invariably the high is followed by challenges that lead to frustration and frustration that leads to distraction. This distraction can lead us away from serving God in full strength. That is the definition of Post-Spiritual High Syndrome.

     | 9,095 views

    The message explores how Christians can avoid becoming casualties of divine service. There is a high cost demanded of those who will serve Christ, and we must not imagine that we will be spared paying that cost. However, in standing firm with Christ, we will stand victorious.

    “Ahab told Jezebel all that Elijah had done, and how he had killed all the prophets with the sword. Then Jezebel sent a messenger to Elijah, saying, ‘So may the gods do to me and more also, if I do not make your life as the life of one of them by this time tomorrow.’ Then he was afraid, and he ...read more

    How shall we respond when despondent or depressed? God may allow trials in order to drive us to Him. This study of Elijah's downfall seeks to encourage those who are depressed.

    “[Elijah] came to a cave and lodged in it. And behold, the word of the LORD came to him, and he said to him, ‘What are you doing here, Elijah?’ He said, ‘I have been very jealous for the LORD, the God of hosts.

    Last week we looked at Samson. Samson was physically strong but in some ways he was spiritually weak. We, too can be strong in some areas but weak in others. Today, we'll look at Elijah. He was bold and courageous...well, most of the time.

    JUST LIKE US (part four) Last week we looked at the example of Samson. When Samson was born he was given a special Nazirite vow. He couldn't drink alcohol or even grape juice. And he couldn't cut his hair. These conditions were to indicate that he would be noticeably set apart for a ...read more

    The pandemic seems to go on forever. Instead of getting better, Covid is getting worse. Many are becoming discouraged and depressed because of lockdowns and other guidelines that give us limited mobility.

    Note: I developed a simple set of homemade PowerPoint slides that I used in presenting this sermon. They're not fancy or professional quality, and for this sermon there were only as small number of slides (most of which are maps), but if you're interested in having the PowerPoint file I ...read more

    You're trying to make the right decisions and live out your Christian life, but the more you try, the more difficult life seems to get. Our Christians lives are not always so glorious. Why do we continue? Where do find the glory of a life committed to following Christ?

    Have you ever had one of those weeks where things seem to go wrong? You’re trying to do the right thing, make the right decisions, but it just doesn’t work out the way you thought it would. You set aside time for a family dinner, only to have it turn into sibling arguments, someone stomping away ...read more

    The Bible is full of heroes! They don't wear spandex or fly around in capes and cowls, but God empowered these heroes and heroines to accomplish some pretty amazing feats that can inspire us to become heroes of God ourselves. Our next hero is Elijah. (Alliterated Outline, PowerPoint Available)

    I hope that as I preach the Word it will fall on good soil today.
