     | 7,938 views

    It is sad that many believers are taking their steps back again to the world of sin, regardless of how the Lord blesses them. But like Abraham, they will soon find out that the path to Egypt is not the right path, but it is troubled path.

    Theme: Going Down the Path to Egypt Text: Genesis 12: 10-20 Introduction: A. Good morning everyone. Praise God, again we have come together to express our love, our trust, our appreciation and gratitude to God. I missed one Sunday here but I pray that all of us are doing fine through the grace of ...read more

     | 6,881 views

    In beginning an interim pulpit ministry, God directed my attention to Abram/Abraham as a paradigm of faith. Some will object to the almost typological approach to these texts.

    Famine in the Promised Land Text: Genesis 12:1-20 Today, may or may not be the beginning of a journey together. But whether God allows me to stay with you over a long period of time or whether today is merely a temporary lesson for an eternal purpose, God has placed this message on my heart. Today, ...read more

    A Failure Of Faith Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 14,731 views

    No one is perfect. Even the greatest of Biblical characters are sinners. When Abraham faced the first crisis since deciding to walk with God, he defaulted to his old ways of falsehood rather than walking by faith.

    Introduction: A. The story is told of a young boy who came home from practice all decked out in his baseball outfit. 1. Cheerfully, his mom asked him, “How did Little League go?” 2. The little boy growled, “Terrible! I struck out three times!” 3. Trying to console her son, his mom said, “That’s ...read more

    Do you trust that God will make ALL things right if you surrender to His will? Do you have “righteous faith” … a faith based on your trust in a “righteous” God? Good!

    [This is part of a series on Reinhold Niebuhr's prayer "The Serenity Prayer" (long or full version). This sermon is based on the line, "trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His will."] Abram and Lot stood on the ridge and looked out over the ...read more

    "Our Savior And Scarecrows: How To Fight Your Fears” Series

    Contributed by Perry Fowler on May 11, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,778 views

    God didn’t call Abraham to be the Father of Faith because He was a spiritual giant; quiet to contrary, He called Him because He was human, yet willing to be molded, melted, and changed. He wants to do the same for you.

    One of God’s staple, primary commands to His followers is simply: “Do not fear.” It is interesting but did you know that the phrase: “Do not fear or Fear not” occurs over 300 times in the Bible and in some translations it actually occurs 365 times—some say 1 for every day of the year. Here’s the ...read more

    Abram had obeyed God and moved his household to the land of Canaan. While there, he experienced the first severe test of his new faith. How did he respond to this challenge?

    Introduction: Abram had left Ur of the Chaldees and was now living in the land of Canaan. He had settled, at least for the time being, south of Bethel and Ai.

    What do we do when the ugly little head of fear begins to creep into our lives? What is it that causes you fear? An example of Abram's life shows us what we should do and what we shouldn't do.

    Fear. Whether we want to admit it or not, fear is something that we have to wrestle with. The fear of standing on the ladder that's two stories high. Fear of a spider crawling on your skin. The fear of snakes. The fear of standing on a stage with the spotlight beaming on you. The fear of ...read more
