    OPEN: The minister was preoccupied with thoughts of how he was going to, after the worship service, ask the congregation to come up with more money than they were expecting for repairs to the church building. Therefore, he was annoyed to find that the regular organist was sick and a substitute had ...read more

    For Memorial Day/Christian Legacy Sunday: We must not protect the vessel in which the Gospel is carried more than the Gospel itself. The Gospel is power; the vessel must be impervious to popularity, a good transporter. Legacy giving encouraged.

    I am not much of a gardener. The Scripture says that there is a time to plant and a time to pluck up what is planted, but I must tell you that I don’t know the difference. I pluck up only what I am told to pluck up, because I don’t know a weed from a willow. However, the mistress of our little ...read more

    The most important thing in the lives of the Wisemen was finding Jesus. They went "looking" for Him until they found Him. Is Jesus the most important thing in your life, and how do you know if you've been looking for Him?

    OPEN: Yogi Berra was a very famous baseball player back in the 40s, 50s & 60s. Outside of being an big league catcher he was known for some interesting sayings.

    Because our faith is founded on the sure promises of God, it will share the message of the Gospel out of thanks to God.

    We saw last week that since our faith has such a sure foundation on the faithful promises of our never changing God, it will affect our whole lives. What we believe affects who we are and what we do. When we see the love God has showered upon us, our lives become lives of thanks to him. So, in ...read more

    The contents of the Ark of the Covenant are still relevant to us today.

    INTRODUCTION There have been many things written about the Ark of the Covenant. Hollywood has even made movies about it. In Raiders of the Lost Ark it was portrayed as a beautiful golden box with supernatural power that burned up anyone who looked inside of it. No doubt, the Ark was filled with ...read more

    Faith In The Right Things

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Mar 16, 2025
     | 437 views

    This morning, a Canaanite Woman barges into the house Jesus is praying seeking his help. Jesus comments seem cold, but her acknowledgement of Jesus authority, and her need for Grace brings about a great lesson in where we stand before God.

    Good Morning. Today, we have a tough lesson, in that it seems to show us a Jesus who is not the approachable loving friend we sometimes can imagine, but standoffish, aloof, and cold; similar to the way he talks to Mary in Cana before He turns water into wine. As the cartoon on the bulletin cover ...read more

     | 13,861 views

    Judas began his walk with the Lord just as every one of the other 11 disciples, but he developed a mentality of "controlling the bag" that led to his downfall. He abandoned Jesus for the sake of worldly gain and didn't give God his all.

    Beware of the Judas Mentality Sunday, April 3, 2011 By Pastor James May I am glad to be a part of a church where we can see the Love of God in the hearts of people. Your love for the Lord is displayed in so many ways. Every time you worship him, you show your love or God. Every time you sing ...read more

    Contributed by Charles Scott on Nov 20, 2006
     | 2,596 views

    Christians sometimes fail to realize the great eternal value of the gifts God has given them if used in his service; the widow’s mite and the poor widow in Elijah’s day are examples of how God values our gifts.

    Proper 27 B BE THOU A BLESSING MOTIVE FOR MINISTRY I Kings 17:8-16 The word of the Lord came to Elijah the prophet, saying, “Arise, go to Zarephath, which belongs to Sidon, and dwell there. Behold, I have commanded a widow there to feed you.” So he arose and went to Zarephath. And when he came to ...read more
