    PRACTICAL CHRISTIAN LIVING #3 - "Be Doers of the Word" James 1:19 My dearly loved brothers, understand this: Everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger, 20 for man’s anger does not accomplish God’s righteousness. 21 Therefore, ridding yourselves of all moral filth and evil, ...read more

    Kierkegaard once said, "When you read God’s Word, you must constantly be saying to yourself, ‘It is talking to me, and about me.’” Is the Word challenging you? Convicting you? Bringing your life into alignment with God?

    BEING READ BY THE WORD Heb. 4:12-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: A LAWYER GOES TO HEAVEN 1. A lawyer dies and goes to Heaven. “There must be some mistake,” the lawyer argues. “I’m too young to die. I’m only fifty five.” 2. “Fifty five?” says Saint Peter. “No, according to our calculations, you’re ...read more

    Are We Being Obedient?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jul 10, 2023
     | 790 views

    In this passage of Scripture, Paul is writing to the Philippians, instructing them to be humble like Christ. How humble are we?

    These verses are presumably from a psalm sung by the early Christian church. The passage holds many equals to the prediction of the suffering servant in Isaiah 53. As a song, it was not intended to be a finished assertion about the nature and work of Christ. Notwithstanding, a few vital attributes ...read more

    This sermon deals with some of the reasons we fail to draw close to God and the virtues of being close to God.

    How close is close enough? Closer Zeno’s paradox. Imagine I had high school boys and girls lined up at opposite ends of the gym and had them half the distance between them every 10 seconds, how long would it be before they are touching? Well, if I always half the distance, they will never ...read more

     | 5,105 views

    In the words of C.S. Lewis, we are in the process of what we will be eternally; "immortal horrors, or everlasting splendors"

    1 See how great a love the Father has bestowed on us, that we would be called children of God; and such we are. For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know Him. 2 Beloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be. We know that when He ...read more

    Respecting the Unsaved: You can’t beat people over the head with the Bible nor shove it down their throats.

    WHAT IS THE FIRST THING THAT COMES TO MIND WHEN YOU HEAR THE WORDS: RUDE, CRASS, DISRESPECTFUL, HATEFUL, MEAN, INSENSITIVE, AND OFFENSIVE? YOU MIGHT THINK THEY COME FROM AN ACT OF A “STAND UP COMEDIAN” OR POSSIBLY THE DIALOG FROM AN “R” RATED MOVIE. WOULD YOU BE SURPRISED IF I SAID THAT THEY COULD ...read more

    This week’s subject fruit is “patience.” How does possessing patience relate to understanding and achieving my purpose in life?

    “But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law” (Galatians 5:22-23).
