Honouring Our Parents

Contributed by Michael Stark on May 14, 2017

Christian children are instructed to honour their parents. This is one of the few direct commands to children in the congregation. I fear this command is neglected among the faithful today. The message is a study of what the Apostle wrote.

“Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. ‘Honour your father and mother’ (this is the first commandment with a promise), ‘that it may go well with you and that you may live long in the land.’” [1] The last days are described in frightful detail in Paul’s final letter to ...read more

Good & Best In The Kingdom Series

Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Aug 12, 2013

In Prioritizing the Word of God, we must be : 1) Devoted to the Best (Luke 10:38-39), without settling for and being: 2) Distracted from the Good (Luke 10:40-42).

The word “priority” is a commonly used one today. Books and seminars purporting to teach people how get their lives in order by understanding and setting their priorities abound. As people’s lives become more frenetic, frantic, disjointed, and disconnected, they battle to stay ...read more

An Elephant In The Room

The solution for America, our churches, and our lives is as close as the elephant in the room.

Getting What You Ask For From God

Contributed by R. Joseph Owles on May 6, 2012

Based on the Lectionary readings for the 5th Sunday in Easter (Acts 9:26-31; 1 John 3:18-24; John 15:1-8). Jesus says that we can ask anything from God and receive it. 1 John explains it, and Acts shows the consequence.

Jesus said to his disciples: "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine grower. He takes away every branch in me that does not bear fruit, and every one that does he prunes so that it bears more fruit. You are already pruned because of the word that I spoke to you. Remain in me, as I remain in ...read more

Is It Enough Just To Love God

Contributed by Clay Gentry on Aug 7, 2013

Is it enough just to love God? By that we mean, it is enough to be well pleasing to God to simply love Him? Some Christians would say yes, others no, but what does God's word say? That is the focus of this lesson.

Last week I asked a dozen people this simple question, “Is it enough just to love God?” Only two people said “yes it was enough just to love God,” while the other ten emphatically said, “no it’s not, we have to obey Him.” So what is the answer? Is it enough ...read more

Pressing On

Contributed by Ron Tuit on Jan 20, 2013

So many times we become "spiritually fatigued". We see what is going on in the world around us and sometimes wonder if we can continue. We wonder if there is something wrong with us. What can help us to get out of this funk?

PRESSING ON (Phil. 3 and Col 1:27)) “I know where I’ve been, and I know what Christ has done for me, but I HAVEN’T ARRIVED YET.” Did you ever sit and think about that? The Apostle Paul was ...read more

The Wow Factor!

Contributed by J Jeffrey Smead on Apr 27, 2013

Now Glory is a word that contains much emotion and much wonder. It is often used when we experience something that has a Wow factor. Such as, "Oh what a glorious view!" or "That performance was glorious!"
