    Serving the Lord is a lifelong mission, although the nature of the work may change. God only holds us responsible for what we can do. Yet, if we pay attention, he will provide an opportunity to serve him every day in some way. (Great for Labor Day)

    The Value of Hard Work 2 Thessalonians 3:6-13 Today we will focus on the cure for idleness, and here are my favorite thoughts on the subject: “Yesterday I did nothing and today I'm finishing what I did yesterday.” “If I won the award for laziness, I would send somebody to pick ...read more

    In this last sermon from the series on 1 & 2 Thessalonians, we look at Paul's commands about not being idol, but working and obeying until Jesus comes.

    Introduction: A. Let me begin with this humorous, puny piece about work. 1. All my life I’ve been looking for the perfect job 2. My first job was working in an orange juice factory, but I got canned...just couldn't concentrate. 3. After that I tried to be a tailor, but I just wasn't suited ...read more

    A Lazy Christian Is An Oxymoron Series

    Contributed by David Dykes on Oct 9, 2014

     | 23,519 views

    Your work matters to God. There is great value in honest, hard work. Laziness is a landmine that can destroy a person and anyone around that person.

    INTRODUCTION An oxymoron is the combination of contradictory words linked together. The plural of oxymoron is oxymora, so here are a few of my favorite oxymora: (1) jumbo shrimp; (2) pretty ugly; (3) working vacation (4) tight slacks; (5) Microsoft works; (6) humble Texan; and the one we’re ...read more

    Emotional Blackmail by Fr. Emmerich Vogt, O.P. Something I always like to cover in my missions is the role of feelings and emotions in our moral lives.

    If anyone does not wish to work, neither let him eat.

    WORKING AND EATING. 2 Thessalonians 3:6-13. Having expressed his trust in the Lord that they will already be doing the things with which he charges them (2 Thessalonians 3:4), the Apostle Paul now charges the brethren in Thessalonica - “in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ” - to withdraw ...read more

    Paul was a good example. Paul said in 1st Cor. 11:1, "Follow my example, as I follow the example of Christ." How did Paul set a good example?

    SETTING A GOOD EXAMPLE (part two) In life there are good examples and there are bad examples. We need to set a good example for the lost to see and be drawn to and for the church to see and want to follow suit. Recap: Jesus was a good example of humility and service. When he washed the disciples' ...read more

    This is Part 12 in a 14-part series of studies I call “The Christian Character” as described by in what is familiarly known as the “Sermon on the Mount.” In this part, we examine Jesus teaching about laying up treasures, the eye as the lamp of the body, and the impossibility of serving two masters.

    Don't Be An Active, But Idle, Busy Body Series

     | 5,082 views

    Paul address a specific sin in the life of the Thessalonian church - the sin of being an active, but idle, busy body. This sin is a blind-spot in the life of the Thessalonian church. All blind spots need to be addressed before we get to a point where the kingdom is better off without us.

    Again, I would like to remind you this is the last chapter in II Thessalonians.

    You can sense the love and admiration Paul had for these young Christians in this last chapter. Like a spiritual father that is concerned for his children, he has one more important thing he needs to bring to their attention before he closes his letter. In this text we see... II. HIS ...read more
