    The Gibeonites deceive the Israelites into a treaty because the Israelites fail to ask the Lord. We learn to involve God in our decisions, act with integrity when we make a poor decision, and trust God to redeem even those bad decisions.

    Better Ask the Boss Joshua 9 Intro: Have you ever been deceived? Have you ever gotten burned by somebody who seemed sincere, whom you trusted, and who turned out to have been lying to you all along and took advantage of you? Sadly most of us can relate all too easily. We have placed our trust ...read more

    First message after being hospitalized with COVID pneumonia and blood clots. In this message using God's call of Abraham I answer the question (as best I can) as to why God choose to hear my prayers and heal me, while so many other He did not.

    WHY? Powerful Passages SO – good morning Maple Grove! MAN – it is so good to be standing before you all today. I MEAN – it has been a minute, right?

    This sermon focuses on the audacious call to Abraham to sacrifice his only son and reflects on the times when we feel that God is asking too much of us. It is only in light of the sacrifice of God’s only Son that we can appreciate his call.

    God asked Abraham to lay down his Isaac. His story is an incredible picture of the Cross and how God loved us enough to surrender His Son, Jesus, for our sin. Do we love Him enough to surrender our Isaac today?

    It has been said that Christians are like tea bags……they always do best when they get in hot water. In Genesis chapter 22, we find Abraham in the hottest water of his life as God tries his faith. The Bible teaches three key truths about trials in the life of a believer: 1) Trials come to ...read more

    To those of us who have taken the time to wrestle with our faith, have you ever noticed that there are seasons when God makes no sense?

    I want to begin with a statement in my sermon this morning that whatever God is doing… it makes no sense especially to the serious believers among us, to those of us who have taken the time to wrestle with our faith, have you ever noticed that there are seasons when God makes no sense?

    Some people think that is wrong to ask God for troubles that come our way. While it is wrong to complain, this sermon argues that you can approch God with a right attitude to understand.

    How Can I Ask God? Psalm 13 “If God is a God of love, how can He allow bad things to happen?” This is a question asked often by non-believers and believers alike. At times this is more likely an excuse rather than an honest question. Other times this is a heart-felt question. Children of God ...read more
