    Genesis verse-by-verse

    Genesis 26 The last time we were in the book of Genesis we found the Lord giving Abram a pep talk concerning His covenant to build a nation through him. Abram was coming off of a great military victory, but was still concerned that he and Sarah hadn’t been able to have a baby through the first ...read more

    How To Resolve Conflict

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Aug 26, 2002

     | 16,021 views

    We all live with the consequences of conflict – the hurt and pain. Jesus gives us some real advice on how to properly deal with sin and conflict – and has some surprises about a very well known section of Scripture.

    How much time do we spend in conflict? It started back with Cain & Abel. You remember the story – the two first brothers argued because God favored Abel’s sacrifice more than Cain’s. You know how the story ends – with the first murder – and it seems, brothers (and even brothers and sisters) have ...read more

    A little exposition concerning the Word of the Lord versus the word of man.

    1 Peter 5:8 Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour: -Counterfeit- Can = Ability May = Permission James 4:7 Submit yourselves therefore to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. James 4:8 Draw nigh to God, ...read more

    Holy Armor

    Contributed by Mari Larson on Jul 27, 2015
     | 3,417 views

    This sermon (preached the Sunday after the 2009 ELCA Churchwide Assembly) illustrates the Ephesians "Armor of God" imagery with the actions of the ELCA.

    Several weeks ago, when I chose today’s Ephesians text to be my preaching text, I didn’t realize that the text corresponded with the weekend after our ChurchWide Assembly and how absolutely appropriate it would be today to talk about Holy Armor. Many of you have noticed that our ...read more

    Setting Our Minds

    Peter has good intentions, but they are not in agreement with God's ultimate plan. We must covenant to deny ourselves and align ourselves to God's will and ways.

    WE MAY HAVE HEARD THIS FAMILIAR SAYING: “THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH GOOD INTENTIONS.” AN INTENTION IS SIMPLY A PLAN OR GOAL WE HOPE TO ACCOMPLISH. IRONICALLY, INTENTIONS DON’T ACHIEVE ANYTHING. THEY ARE MERELY IDEAS AND DREAMS OF SPECIFIC THINGS THAT WE’D LIKE TO SEE DONE IN THE ...read more

    Faithfulness is finishing the race under normal circumstance while steadfastness is finishing the race even under very difficult circumstances. In this message we will learn some great advice from Joshua on how to develop the attitude of steadfastness.

    SCRIPTURE READING: Joshua 23: 6 “Be very strong; be careful to obey all that is written in the Book of the Law of Moses, without turning aside to the right or to the left. 7 Do not associate with these nations that remain among you; do not invoke the names of their gods or swear by them.

    Ain't God Good!

    God sets the standard for GOODNESS ... He turns badness into GOODNESS. It’s God’s nature to be good. We can trust in the GOODNESS of God.

    “Ain’t God Good!” INTRODUCTION: God is good … AMEN? I learned this from childhood. 1.- When I was just a child, my mother taught me a prayer to say at mealtime: “God is great, God is GOOD, let us thank Him for our food. By His hands we all are fed. Give us Lord, our daily bread. Amen.” 2.- ...read more

    Right Minus Wrong = ?

    We have all sinned. We’re all displeased by sin, and that disease is fatal. Perhaps these are some of the same things that drove this young ruler in the Bible to seek advice and counsel from Jesus Christ.

    What are people looking for? The same as young man in the Bible. There is a restless among people, especially among youth today; there’s a feeling of emptiness and dependency, a sense of guilt. There’s a strong desire for an ideology that will give meaning to our existence. We have all sinned. ...read more

    "Control your generosity when it comes to a chronic borrower." is good advice to follow. Something else too wouldn’t hurt if others would listen to it & it concerns eternity. Let’s examine it together!

    Introduction I’ve heard many say, "It’s the harshest words ever spoken by Jesus Himself." Maybe, but true none the less! In the closing remarks of His sermon on the Mount, Jesus pointedly said, "One day, some of you standing here will hear the very words, I never knew YOU come from God’s own ...read more

    Paul had set the example of joyfulness in difficult times. In prison, after beatings, Paul and Silas had sung praises. Now, in the difficult times of their life, Paul gives advice for believers in difficult times.

    There is nothing in-between, no middle ground. It’s God or nothing. So let’s follow St. Paul’s advice and count everything other than the grace and peace of Christ as nothing.

    Fifth Sunday of Lent 2019 Finger of God; Finger of Priest Our Lord Jesus was constantly in conflict with the Jewish religious authorities of His day, both Pharisees and Sadducees.

    Message 15 shows Jethro's advice to Mose about his administration as a warning to pastors who try to do too much, without delegating some of the work to others,, especially lay church leaders

    15 MOSES’ MIGHTY MEN Exodus 18 D. The Steps to Sinai 3. The Management Problem There was a certain pastor who disappeared every Friday afternoon around four o’clock. He would get in his car, drive off, and come back in about an hour. His ...read more

    We often measure our success by how closely we stick to a set of expectations - whether on the job, at home, or in our walk with the Lord. We do good, we feel good - we do bad, we feel bad. But measuring success is really much different in a relationship

    When you apply for a job you supply your resume—it’s that collection of information that tells why you are qualified for a particular position. Until not too long ago, a very important thing to have when going to a new area was a letter of recommendation. We still use them occasionally. ...read more

    Finding Your Place Series

     | 5,836 views

    How do you get a sense of well being, identity and purpose? Is it by how you feel inside and how you compare to others outside? Paul gives us some wonderful advice on how to deal with this as a member of the body of Christ.

    Last time we talked about how to respond to God’s mercy—by making ourselves available to God by putting ourselves on the altar as a living sacrifice, shunning the molding of the world on our character externally, while embracing the transformation of our character internally by the presence of the ...read more
