    A sermon to the church concerning seeking God's direction instead of our own.

    Chasing Donkeys I Samuel 9: 1-10 I want to go back just a little to give you some history leading up to this scripture setting. Most of us have studied at least a little about Israel’s humble beginnings, beginning with Abraham and going through to the circumstances of this scripture ...read more

    God is to be trusted to bless our nation, even when there are problems in the world.

    Scripture Introduction It might seem that nothing could be less relevant than a chapter from an ancient book, describing a transition in political power of a nation half the world away, which occurred over 3000 years ago! But the events of that day and time include: • Corrupt politicians taking ...read more

    Make Us A King To Judge Us

    Contributed by Jose R. Hernandez on Apr 9, 2011
     | 5,528 views

    There is a very popular saying that states, “those that ignore history are doomed to repeat it,” and this is the theme that we will explore today. Today we are going to learn a very valuable lesson from a terrible decision.

    As I have said on numerous occasions, no one is perfect. The truth is that all of us make mistakes, and are guilty of making decisions based on impulse. In other words, we allow ourselves to be led by our feelings, and the worst part is that we allow ourselves to be led by the things of this ...read more

    Praying In Frustration

     | 5,677 views

    Like Samuel, we are often frustrated in our intentions. But turning to prayer, as he did, will help us remove the blame from ourselves, will help us understand the motives of others, and will help us accept reality and move on toward something better.

    We are called to be different.

    Just Like Everyone Else I Samuel 8:1-22 In a way, we can’t blame Israel for wanting a king. They had gone through hundreds of years of anarchy.

    Peculiar People

    Contributed by Mike Bryant on Jun 8, 2021
     | 4,058 views

    Israel's desire for a king is used to illustrate the temptation we face to be more like the rest of the world. But even though the world's view of us often chafes, it is God's plan that we be conspicuously different.

    I) After Moses brought the nation of Israel out of Egypt, they did not have a king for many years. A) Unlike the nations around them, they were led by men and women, judges, who were direct intermediaries between God and man. B) Early on, the people tried to make one of those judges, Gideon, into ...read more
