    God is sovereign over all things, from the fates of nations to the details of our own lives. Therefore, He is worthy of our trust and confidence.

    For the past couple of weeks, we’ve been looking at some of the attributes of God; trying to better understand what God is like. So far, we’ve considered God’s goodness and His wisdom. This morning we’re going to look at what the Bible has to say about His power. After all, what good would it do us ...read more

    How many sent children off to school this week? How many for the first time? Here’s a question: Why? [Other than because it’s the law, or to get them out of your hair] What is it you’re hoping they’ll learn there? Math, reading, science, history . . . but is that all? No, of course not. You hope ...read more

    God is good. He always does what is right, and always acts for the good of those who follow Christ.

    How many of you say grace at meals? At our house, we divide it up by days. So on Monday, I give thanks, on Tuesday, it’s my wife, and so on. That arrangement at least eliminates arguments over whose turn it is to pray, although enthusiasm for the task varies considerably. We don’t have a set ...read more

    based on 104 ratings
     | 11,741 views

    As we gain a right understanding of how much worth and value each person has, as we come to see each other the way God sees us, then we will gain an appreciation for one another that will strengthen love and build community.

    This is the fifth and last message in our series on Building Community. In a society that is becoming increasingly fragmented, in which people seem more and more separated from one another, the church can be a refuge. More than a building, more than a Sunday morning meeting, more than an ...read more

    based on 184 ratings
     | 42,084 views

    We need to encourage one another, because encouragement is a powerful tool to help one another persevere in faith.

    Lately, we’ve been discussing what it means for the church to be a community, and how we can build and maintain a sense of community in the church. Why is this topic important? In our country, social bonds have been steadily eroding for the last forty years. People are less connected, less ...read more

    Unity in the church is important because it reflects the character of God, it exemplifies what Christ came to do, and it is necessary to the health and growth of the church.

    Does it seem to you that people are angrier than they used to be? The unspoken rules of civility that help us all to live together in a society are either unknown or ignored. Violence is seen as an acceptable way of addressing conflicts. People seem less tolerant, more willing to lash out at one ...read more

    We build communitiy in the church by bearing one another’s burdens and serving one another.

    “Community.” A sense of belonging, of being connected with people. Knowing that if you don’t show up, someone will notice, knowing that people care if you show up or not. Having things in common – common values, priorities, beliefs. Having people to share things with – joys and sorrows, work and ...read more

     | 12,215 views

    We build community in the church by willingly turning a blind eye to one another’s faults.

    How many of you have watched the television show, “Cheers”? For eleven seasons, from 1982 to 1993, Cheers was one of the highest-rated shows on television, and since 1993 its spinoff, Frasier, has also consistently been at the top of the ratings. What accounts for this popularity? Inspired writing, ...read more

  • Freedom Without Escape

    Contributed by Alan Perkins on Apr 3, 2001
    based on 74 ratings
     | 7,297 views

    Real freedom does not come from escaping your circumstances, or from being able to do whatever you want; real freedom is the power to live in obedience to God.

    Do you feel free? Or do you sometimes feel trapped? No way out, all the exits boarded up? Ever feel that all your obligations and responsibilities have tied you down, that all you’re doing is marching to someone else’s music, responding to someone else’s demands, all the time doing what you have to ...read more

     | 11,294 views

    We can thrive in the midst of change by relying on our unchanging God.

    "There is nothing more difficult to take in hand, more perilous to conduct, or more uncertain in its success, than to take the lead in the introduction of a new order of things. Because the innovator has for enemies all those who have done well under the old conditions, and lukewarm defenders in ...read more

  • Making A Full Recovery

    based on 104 ratings
     | 12,169 views

    How do we get back on track after lapsing into sin?

    Often, as we come together for Sunday morning worship or Friday evening Bible study, the topics we address have to do with how to be a good Christian. I don’t mean that in a negative way ("aren’t you a good little Christian"). I mean that we consider what the Bible teaches about how to be faithful, ...read more

  • Contentment

    based on 45 ratings
     | 11,349 views

    We can cultivate contentment by giving thanks, by realizing that God withholds no good thing from us, and by seeking that which is eternal.

    Joy is a deep, abiding sense of satisfaction and fulfillment that flows from our relationship with Jesus Christ. It is the birthright of every Christian, something purchased for us by Christ, something we all desire and which God desires for us. And yet joy is something which we don’t always ...read more

    How do we keep holding on when we feel like giving up? How do we find the strength to persevere, to go on?

    Ever feel like giving up? Ever feel like quitting? Ever feel like your situation is so hopeless that the only thing you can possibly do is leave? Just walk away, head out the door and never come back? In extreme circumstances, people can feel so much emotional pain that they take their own lives. ...read more

    Jesus is completely victorious over sin and death

    Are you a winner or a loser? We all want to be winners, don’t we? At the end of the game, we want to be on the side with 14 runs, like the White Sox had last night, instead of the team with 3 runs, like the Indians. Nike had a slogan a couple of years ago that reflected this attitude: "second ...read more

    Although Jesus appeared to be the least powerful man in Palestine when he was on the cross, He was actually the one in control.

    Last week, a U.S. surveillance plane collided with a Chinese fighter jet. The Chinese plane was lost. The American plane was able to make an emergency landing at a nearby air base. Once the plane landed, the Chinese military immediately took the crew into custody. That was eight days ago, and our ...read more
