    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jan 23, 2024
     | 750 views

    God can successfully get our attention and turn us around, if we are open to His guidance.

    Saturday of the Third Week in Course 2023 Today we have heard the tale of two rebukes, rebukes of power and harm against human beings. All this week the liturgy has shared with us the story of David as King of Israel. Earlier this month he and his trusted followers were running from Saul, but ...read more

    After The Tears

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Feb 1, 2024
     | 1,230 views

    We all make mistakes, some bigger than others. But God has shown us what to do with them:

    I don’t know anyone anywhere who hasn’t done something they were sorry for afterwards. What’s the most recent one for you? Maybe it’s something you said - thoughtless or angry words. Maybe it’s something you did - or something you didn’t do. Perhaps it was something that you fight against and keep ...read more

    David & Bathsheba: How To Not Be A Man After God's Own Heart Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Jul 28, 2023
     | 1,435 views

    Normally the King would lead the armies in battle. But instead, King David sends out Joab and he stays behind at the palace.

    The title of this message is “How to not be a man after God’s own heart.” So, if you want to follow God and love God and live for God, just do the opposite of everything in 2nd Samuel chapter 11. There are two incidents that are the most famous in David’s life. The first is of course David’s ...read more

    Let God Do The Finger Pointing

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Aug 7, 2023
     | 1,831 views

    If finger pointing is impolite and it is so often connected to self-centered, sinful behavior why does God do it? God does this so that when sinners see their lost condition he can point them to the cross of his Son. There forgiveness is found. There salvation and eternal life are offered.

    “Finger pointing.” What thoughts do those two words bring to your mind? For the most part they are probably negative thoughts. At a very early age we are taught not to point at people. It’s considered impolite. As we get older we experience finger pointing in many different ways. If we had ...read more

     | 2,310 views

    How many of you have been hurt by someone in the past and you still remind yourself of that hurt? Why? Why would you torture yourself like that? I want to remind us all of the grace, the mercy, the forgiveness and the love God showed us when we gave our hearts and our lives to the Lord.

    If you have your bibles, we're going to begin in 2 Samuel chapter 12, then we're going to flip over to John chapter 8. "Why a sermon about two sinners?" Because today, I want to remind us all of the grace, the mercy, the forgiveness and the love God showed us when we gave our ...read more

     | 1,179 views

    There’s a fear that comes over you when you know you’ve done wrong. Guilt comes in. Then shame takes over. And pretty soon we are sorrowful and sad and we don’t know what to do.

    Have you ever made a huge mistake? A mistake that really bit hard? And you fought with yourself about it, trying to justify what you did? But in the end you realize, I messed up really bad. Have you been there? There’s a fear that comes over you when you know you’ve done wrong. Guilt comes in. ...read more

    No Wonder Our Eyes Wander

    Pornography is everywhere on TV, in the movies, and online. Adultery is now widely accepted. Sexual sinfulness is rampant. How can we resist sexual temptation and be victorious over sexual addiction? The answer...through the divine power of the Holy Spirit.

    The Bible says in 2 Samuel 11:1-5 CSB In the spring when kings march out to war, David sent Joab with his officers and all Israel. They destroyed the Ammonites and besieged Rabbah, but David remained in Jerusalem. One evening David got up from his bed and strolled around on the roof of the palace. ...read more

    Sermon # 35 - The Sanctity Of Marriage Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Sep 14, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,491 views

    Marriage is God’s idea and the directive for a happy marriage is given by God Himself. When we honor marriage and treat our spouse the way God wants us to, our homes will be blessed and our families will be a blessing to many.

    We read in Matthew 22:2, “The kingdom of heaven is like to a certain king, who made a marriage for his son..”(Webster) Have you ever wondered why the kingdom of heaven is likened to the marriage of a king’s son? Often we consider marriage to be a normal part of our lives, but fail to realize that ...read more

    Do we really understand what "The Fear of the LORD" truly means? JESUS was a “friend of sinners”, and HE told us to call upon the Almighty as "Abba, FATHER". So what is this "Fear of the LORD?"

    Adam Sinned, and the Son must Die 2 Samuel 12:9-14 Sin has dire consequences. It not only affects the sinner but also everyone around him.

    Did You Pull Back? Sermon By Joseph Ondu

    Contributed by Joseph Ondu on Nov 23, 2023
     | 1,436 views

    Uriah did not die because he could not handle the intensity of the battle, but he died because of the negligence of those who were supposed to support him in the battle zone.

    Did you pull back? In the morning David wrote a letter to Joab and sent it with Uriah. In the letter he wrote, “Put Uriah in the front lines where the fighting is the fiercest._Then pull back and leave him exposed so that he’s sure to be killed." 2 Samuel 11:14-15 The word here is "Then ...read more

    When Scars Remain Series

     | 2,185 views

    David set in motion many troubles from his sin with Bathsheba. He is forgiven, but the consequences of sin play out. Not all problems are a result of sin and we don’t usually see such a one to one correlation between our past sin and our problems but it is explicitly clear in King David’s case.

    Fairytales are so uplifting. Prince charming rescues the princes and of course they live happily ever after. A lot of traumatic things happened to the princes before prince charming rescued her.

    Following his rise to power, David conquered the city of Jerusalem. He established it as Israel's capital, subsequently taking the Ark of the Covenant into the city to be the central point of worship in the Israelite religion.

    According to the Hebrew Bible, David was the third king of the United Kingdom of Israel. In the Books of Samuel, he is described as a young shepherd and harpist who gains fame by slaying Goliath, a champion of the Philistines, in southern Canaan. David becomes a favorite of Saul, the first king of ...read more

    Thomas Cromwell was having a portrait painted. He said, “paint me as I am leave out not a scar or a blemish.” There is a Wikipedia article on the portrait of Thomas Cromwell.
