     | 6,229 views

    Our Lord has emotions. We see it both in the Old Testament and the New Testament. When He entered into Jerusalem on a donkey to the shouts of "Hosanna" why did He weep. Does He weep or rejoice over us?

    Lent 2019 – Our Weeping Savior (Palm Sunday) Please stand as we read our newest memory Scripture together … 2 Timothy 4:3-4 “The time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what ...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

    Counting The Cost Of A King Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Sep 24, 2022

     | 2,781 views

    Israel demanded a king and rejected God as their king. God made a new covenant with King David. In David’s offspring a king would rule forever. Israel rejected God but they did not thwart his sovereign purposes for man. In Jesus Christ both the Sinai covenant and David’s covenant are fulfilled.

    It is tragic when we give something more priority than we give God. Sporting events can develop character and teach young people positive lessons but if that sport ever came between that person and God, it is wrong. Even humanitarian projects which are serving human need in a ministry, if they ...read more

    Give Us A King

    This passage shares the account of a church that is looking at what the church down the road is doing. The pastor (Samuel) tries to lead this church (Israel) according to God’s will, but the congregation won’t heed his counsel.

    As we look at this chapter of 1 Samuel today, there unfolds a scene that can be applied to discussing the goal of churches today. What is the vision of some churches? Do churches think in a Christ-centered manner, or do they think in a worldly manner? What I mean is this: Are churches today ...read more

    We learned them as children, but did we learn from them? There is truth wrapped up in these tales!

    I. Introduction These are the stories we learned as children and perhaps now you are in turn telling the same tales to your children or grandchildren. These stories were told by our teachers or at our bedtime to help us drift off to sleep. These tales taught us morals. However, unknown to many of ...read more

    Sermon – The Cost Of Having Your Way - Do You Really Want A King?

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Feb 4, 2025
     | 596 views

    But they wanted a king “the same as all the other nations” (1 Samuel 8:5). So they rejected their true King, the God of heaven and earth. God granted their request and gave them over to their desires, but not without a warning.

    Sermon – Do You Really Want A King? Scripture Lesson - 1Samuel 8:1-21 “As Samuel grew old, he appointed his sons to be judges over Israel. Joel and Abijah, his oldest sons, held court in Beersheba. But they were not like their father, for they were greedy for money. They accepted bribes and ...read more

    No form of government can make up for the peoples’ failure to obey and honor God.

    It’s amazing which lessons we learn from our parents and which ones we don’t, isn’t it? Considering that I quit making my bed every day the minute I moved out, my mother would be amazed to realize how many lessons I do remember. One of my favorites is from a time when I think I was about 7 years ...read more

    Samuel tuned in to God at age 12! When everyone else tuned Him out because in those days everyone was doing was right in their own eyes!

    Never seen before in 2024! We have learned in the last few weeks that we could say never heard before in 2024 – which is about hearing the voice of God in a day when few hear it or even listen to it! Our time is no different than in Samuels young years and in his later years. Thesis: Samuel ...read more
