    We are to sing to the Lord always.

    When I asked the Holy Spirit of what He wanted to write as soon as I finished writing the last sermon.

    We need to give thanks to God based on what He did in Christ (Roma 1-11) by worshiping Him in offering our body as sacrifice and committing ourselves to the body of Christ.

    “Let us give thanks to God” (Romans 12:1, 4-5) 1. And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all he has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice—the kind he will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship him. 4 Just as our bodies ...read more

     | 7,260 views

    But part of stewardship is motive. Yes, giving is part of stewardship, but what is needed is not a rulebook telling us what to give, how much to give, by what means we give. What is needed is a heart that is right with Jesus.

    Video: The Power of Giving (1:29 min) (Available on SermonCentral.com) What Every Christian Needs to Know About Stewardship: Stewardship in church terms has always meant giving.

    We continue our Generosity: Possible series this morning discovering what it means to be generous with our presence. When we became a Christian, and one who chose to walk the faith journey as United Methodist, not only did we commit to support the body of Christ with our prayers and witness, but ...read more

    Does Prayer Have Power?

    based on 5 ratings
     | 8,171 views

    Is there power in prayer or in the one that is prayed to?

    Many people think that prayer ‘works’ because there is ‘power’ in it, when in actuality the ‘power’ is found alone in the Creator God we pray to and who steps into every life circumstance to work it out for our best (Rom 8:28). Prayer is not some tool to move God or a weapon to use against the ...read more
