     | 6,691 views

    The is message was used right before a baptism. I allowed the children in our church to stand near the baptistery and observe. I wanted them to get a picture of what baptism means.

Most of you have seen someone get baptized before but you probably haven’t seen it this close up. And I think the best way for me to ...read more

    Abraham laughed in the cynicism of old age; Sarah laughed in the denial that defends against what is inevitable; but beyond both of them God laughed in joy at the triumph of His purposes, fulfilled in two aged followers.

    You have heard it said, “He who laughs last, laughs best.” Let me expand on that: I may laugh, you may laugh, but God will have the last and best laugh, for God’s purposes will be served. Laughter. There are all sorts of reasons to laugh. Some will laugh out of frustration; unable to do what ...read more

In fact, according to Christian tradition, today is not ...read more

    What’s the fuss about? If it’s just a novel that Hollywood turned into a movie, nobody’s going to Hell over it -- are they? ARE THEY?

    Most of the time on Sunday mornings I “teach” through a sermon. Today I will preach this sermon. Teaching is an indirect way to your heart through your head.
