    First in a series on the early church from Acts 1-4. This message deals with how to wait on God.

    Note: Although my outline is very similar to a great sermon by Medford Foskey on this same passage, I only read his sermon after completing most of the work on mine. However I did "steal" his opening story. “It is a sin to be good if God has called us to be great.” That is the first line from ...read more

    Chores are what are done around the house, the work is in the fields. See the difference in this message.

    AFTER THE CHORES ARE DONE Text: Acts 1:1-8 I know it seems as if we have been here before. But this is a passage worth the revisit. The Great Commission is given, and Jesus ascends.

    The Resurrection is the one doctrine that is central to the faith -- all our faith stands or falls on the reality of the resurrection.

    Several years ago, I took a group of kids to a church camp. Now there were lots of great things about summer church camp. We had swimming and boating and hiking – and those were wonderful. But those weren’t the most memorable things of church camp. We had crafts and cookouts -- and those ...read more

    For Ascension Sunday; and in preparation for my retirement as pastor. What stands in our way? Exhaustion? Gather all, gather the marginalized, and pray. Planless? Remember our core values and do them. Lack of urgency? We are accountable to God.

    When a leader and those he leads part company, we learn a whole lot about both of them. Their true values become apparent. The things they are really about become clear. There is no more game-playing when it is time for a leader and those he leads to part company. Sometimes they separate ...read more
