    Far too often in life we as the people of God become greedy and want a "Full Course Meal" Blessing... We need to learn how to appreciate the "Crumb" blessings in life!

    Awww, come on & give the Lord a praise in this house! He is worthy is he not! We bless God on today. You may be seated in the prescense of the Lord. This passage is pregnant with possibility, and I could really preach about 3 or 4 messages from this one text, I could talk about perserverance, or ...read more

    How much do we appreciate God for His grace? Do we rejoice in it, as John Newton did and he was even inspired to make the song, “Amazing Grace”?

    “As for you, you were dead in your transgressions and sins, in which you used to live when you followed the ways of this world and of the ruler of the kingdom of the air, the spirit who is now at work in those who are disobedient.

    The Work Christ accomplished on the Cross is more than we can know. As we look at some of the details, we can appreciate the benefits of Jesus’ death on our behalf.

    The Bleak Time (Matt. 27:45-55, John 19:30) [note: I originally preached on this text ten years earlier; this outline is revised and I have added some significant bits of information from my developing Jewish Roots perspective] 1.

     | 13,064 views

    This is a lay pastor's appreciation message. It's about helping without always getting recognition for it. It looks at Hur in the Bible. Sometimes God wants us in the backgroung out of the spotlight.

    I Could Not Have Done It Without You. 1 Chronicles 11:10-14 Romans 16:2-13 How do you feel when someone does something and they look at you and say, “I Couldn’t Have Done It Without You.” Today as we honor our lay pastors and look back at how God has used us in the past, we say, we could not have ...read more

    God works under opposites in order to help mature us in our faith so that we might appreciate even more the miracle of His love. And that love is truly miraculous.

    The Theology of the Cross God sometimes does not work in the ways which we would expect our God to work. Sometimes, He does not always give us what we want. Sometimes, there are moments in our life where God seems so far away. We pray to Him and nothing happens. We look at God to intervene in our ...read more

    Exploring the Garden of Gethsemane, we delve into the profound strength of prayer as demonstrated by Jesus. This sermon aims to help us appreciate the gift of prayer that God has generously given us.

    As we examine the Garden at Gethsemane, the place where Jesus prayed, let us recognize the incredible power of prayer that God has graciously given us. The Garden at Gethsemane holds various images in our minds - images of prayer, agony, and betrayal. It is a beautiful location, and tourists ...read more

    Many young pastors have asked me to share with them ideas on how to create a funeral message. Here is one such example for a family that appreciates the traditional format of worship. Peace be with you.

    A funeral sermon for the family and loved ones of Werner K____. February 14, 2004 Grace, mercy and peace to you all from our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

    God Chooses To Bless The World Through Fathers

     | 4,946 views

    We don't always appreciate the impact of fathers on the world. This message takes Abraham and the words spoken to him as a foundation for what it means to be a father. It's not just about providing for the household.

    On father's day I want to focus on the father of nations. In fact his name means Father of Nations. His name is Abraham. Abraham was just a regular man, but God called him, gave him a purpose, and rewarded him with a great inheritance. We can learn something about the importance of fathers from ...read more

    If we love God, we will truly love the things we ought to love and we'll find some other way of expressing our appreciation for the material things we have.

    The passage from Hosea 11:1-10 is a story of God mourning over his people. He loved Israel like a parent loves a child, but Israel spurned him. Even though he was rejected, God still loved Israel and could not renounce his chosen people. It is a metaphor for what Jesus did. Jesus was rejected by ...read more
