    The angel announced a message of "great joy". But the world often confuses Joy with Happiness and ends up being disappointed. What brings us joy and what difference does that make in our lives?

    Lover Of Knowledge Or Plain Stupid. Series

     | 3,485 views

    Wisdom seems hard to obtain. Wisdom is different than having knowledge. Knowledge is defined as having information through experience, reasoning or acquaintance. Whereas wisdom is the ability to discern or judge what is true.

    Lover of knowledge or plain stupid. Prov. 12:1-10 The topic of wisdom comes up over and over again throughout the pages of Scripture. In fact one whole book (Proverbs) is devoted to the topic .

    We Americans like to think of ourselves as independent people but we never can truly be totally independent. In the spiritual world we are slaves in the kingdom of darkness or the kingdom of light but the motivation is entirely different!

    Independence? - There Ain’t No Such Thing Please stand with me as we go over our current memory Scripture: Matthew 5:6-8 “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be filled.

    Paul’s Harsh Advice On Who To Marry Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Dec 28, 2018
     | 4,202 views

    This is a challenging passage. Paul repeatedly emphasizes the vast difference between Christians and non-Christians that makes marriage a non-starter. Why does Paul think that Christians should not marry non-Christians?

    OVERKILL? Why does Paul make such a big deal about this? - 2 Corinthians 6:14-18. - Paul here argues that Christians should not marry non-Christians. That strikes many people as overkill. Is it really that big a deal? Is it really worth the repetition that Paul makes here? This is the ...read more

    Psalms 14 And 53 Series

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Feb 26, 2020
     | 6,225 views

    Psalms 14 and 53 are similar to each other, having only minor differences in the mode of expressing the same thoughts. This sermon studies the two passages in parallel, slightly enlarging the understanding of their combined content.

    For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more

     | 1,929 views

    The things Jesus said 2,000 years ago made people think he had lost his mind. If he were to speak to us today, would we feel differently?

    Scripture Reading: Mark 3:20-21 Then he went home; and the crowd came together again, so that they could not even eat. When his family heard it, they went out to restrain him, for people were saying, “He has gone out of his mind.” Reflection Today’s passage is only two verses long, but is packed ...read more
