    THE ROAD TO A DOUBLE ANOINTING 2 Kings 2:1-15 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. JOKE 1: A Sunday school teacher was teaching on the story of Elijah the Prophet and the false prophets of Baal. She explained how Elijah built the altar, put wood upon it, cut the steer in pieces and laid it upon the altar. ...read more

In fact, I’ve even came up with my own Bible trivia question that I use sometimes to stump other preachers once in awhile. The Question: “How many times in Scripture did people cross ...read more

    This is not a full text sermon...it is an approach to the text; think of it as seed for a sermon.

    Upon reading today's text the first thing that springs to mind, quite honestly, is Erich von Daniken's 1968 book, "Chariots of the Gods?," and the several hours of my life that I will never get back for having watched so many of those late night documentaries on the History Channel about UFO's and ...read more
