    God has a plan for each person’s life, He desires that we be molded into His image, not by the world’s standards. Here are three steps to being what God desires for you to be.

    Let me start this morning by asking a question. How many times have you heard someone say, “I going to do my own thing.” I don’t want any part of church, I don’t want any part of Christianity, and I don’t want any part of Christ, because I want to live my life the way that I want to. So many ...read more

    We must look to Jesus as our example of how to use the tools he has already given us in relationships. Love, purpose, and humility are the tools.

    Last week we looked at how we must all get along with each other and work with each other in order to build a strong church. This week I will continue my series on building the church with a look at exactly how we must work together. While Jesus was the foundation and cornerstone in the ...read more

    What does it mean today to avoid being a pharisee? To wash ourselves with and be fountains of mercy.

    Wash Up for Dinner 14 October 2008 Tuesday of 28th week in Course This is a dangerous Gospel to read to a bunch of guys, because it sounds like Jesus didn’t learn the lesson from Mary that he should wash up for dinner. As we find frequently in Scripture, the superficial meaning is nowhere near ...read more

    Man has tried to discount the cost of being a true follower of Jesus Christ. Being a disciple costs something of us - we must be willing to sell all to follow Him.

    Introduction Since the very beginning of time, man has responded to the Lord in many ways. In the Garden, Adam and Eve tried to redefine what our responsibility to a Holy God looks like. Then came men like: Cain, Jonah, Saul, Judas and others who continued this attitude of mediocrity and ...read more

    Anger is a God-given emotion. And all anger is not sin. But we need to control our anger so as not to destroy us from being the people God want us to be.

    We are following the theme: Hanging in There. Tonight I want us to look at the subject, “Hanging in There Through Anger.” Thomas Jefferson once wrote some rules for living. “When angry count to ten before you speak, if very angry, count to a hundred.” Seventy-five years later, Mark Twain, the ...read more
