Mothers (or parents) communicate an atmosphere as much as they communicate specific ideas; we as children cannot rid ourselves of that atmosphere, good or bad. But faith in God can lift us to a new self-esteem.
Just about everybody has a story that involves Mom’s voice. Just about anyone can tell you something distinctive about the things Mother used to say. We can remember not only what she said, but also the way she said it, the tone of voice she used. It’s surprising how many of us can remember ...read more

For Mother’s Day and Pentecost: We cannot shake off our mother’s voice. That voice needs to be one of faith, not just admonition. Yet we need to grow our own faith. The Spirit’s voice overrides all negatives.
Can you, in your own mind, hear your mother’s voice? Can you remember not only what she says or used to say, but how she says it? Many of us can remember those things. Even people whose mothers died young can remember distinctive things. It seems we can’t quite shake off Mom’s voice. It stays ...read more

Mothers Who Love On this day that we honor mothers, its good for us to think about how much you really do. Being a mother is not a walk in the park… By the time a child reaches 18, a mother has had to handle some extra 18,000 hours of child-generated work. In fact, women who never have children ...read more

Many Christians fall in love with the devil. It starts by flirting with the devil and it ends with falling in love with the devil.
Last week, I ended with asking you how your relationship with The Lord was, and how your relationship with satan is. Many Christians shudder at the thought of developing a relationship, or a bond, with satan and rightly so. To think that a child of God would enjoy close companionship to the ...read more

Seeing Higher Ground When the Ground is Shaking June 27, 2010 Introduction A (IL) B Chapter 146 is the first of 5 chapters called the “Hallelujah Psalms”. All start with “Hallelujah/Praise the Lord.” 1 The Psalms are songs written to be sung by God’s children, ...read more
Scripture: Psalm 146:1-10
This sermon emphasizes the importance of the resurrection in our daily lives.
The resurrection is the greatest theme in the biblical account. Every true born child of God should be deeply connected to the resurrection of Christ. Preaching that is not resurrection based is not truly preaching. It is a theological travesty that we have relegated the resurrection to an annual ...read more

Today, we find ourselves standing on the precipice of a powerful and poignant message that draws from the well of Biblical truth found in the book of Daniel, chapter 3, verses 16-18. These verses are a ...read more

On this the Birthday of the Christian Church we pray that the Holy Spirit give us the strength and courage to witness to him in this unbelieving world.
There is a tendency among mankind to honor the dead while persecuting the living. For centuries, even millennia, people have scorned, mocked, abused and killed those who are faithful to God’s Word. Many a prophet of the Old Testament was killed by his own countrymen for being a messenger of God’s ...read more

Scripture: John 6:35-51
Those same people who were shouting “Hosanna, Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord”…. Now, they are shouting, “Crucify Him, Crucify Him!” with just as much passion… We want to shake our heads and say, “how could they do that?”
