    Contributed by Julio Gonzalez on Feb 12, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,622 views

    If we look at life only from the viewpoint of the natural physical man, it can get very discouraging. Life is nothing more than one big “rat race.” That is what Solomon is seeing in this first chapter of Ecclesiastes.

    "Round and Round We Go" Eccl. 1:4-18 Rev. Julio González The older we get, the more we begin to see life as an endless cycle. Babies are born, then they grow older and then they die. Then more babies are born. It rains, the sun shines for a while and then it rains again. We work, we eat, we sleep ...read more

    A shorter midweek message that might help other churches in dealing with some of the potential problems they must deal with in growing from a very small to a medium sized church in a short period of time.

    We all have choices in life. Some choices lead us into good times, while others will lead us into bad times. And considering that we are free to make whichever choice we want, we should be very careful and use much wisdom, because most choices, good or bad, have far reaching consequences that we ...read more

  • Looking Out For #1

    Contributed by Mark Eberly on Mar 17, 2008
     | 1,898 views

    We have this tendency to be selfish--to look out for #1--me, me, me. The true #1 is God and God’s ways. Jesus shows that making God #1 means not thinking we are better than others. John 13 (foot washing) is a beautiful expression of this.

    Looking Out for Number One March 16, 2008 Matthew 21: 1-11; John 13 Part One (kid’s sermon) Let me tell you about the most memorable day of my life.
