Untended Fires

Contributed by John Telgren on Feb 11, 2017

It is important to tend to your spiritual health or you can get burned out in your faith.

"Untended fires soon become just a pile of ashes." I came across this quotation some time ago and it always resurfaces in my memory when we go camping and make a campfire.

Our Creed

Contributed by John Telgren on Feb 11, 2017

It is important to realize that the authority for our faith is from the Lord or our faith, Jesus Christ. Our focus is ultimately not on a creedal system, but upon Christ, whom we follow as our Lord.

Studying the history of creeds is interesting. The earliest creeds arose in reaction to heretics who were teaching heresy concerning the nature of God and Christ. They served to unite the church in sound doctrine against false teaching. When the church and government became fused, resulting in the ...read more

Change We Can Believe In

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Feb 15, 2017

This sermon deals with our need to change as taken from Philippians 2:12-13, and how it entails both our part and God's. We look at the resources given by God for change including the Bible, the Holy Spirit, and Life's Circumstances.

Change We Can Believe In Philippians 2:12-13 Change is a word that seems to be bandied around quite a bit. It’s a word that for whatever reason seems to be in vogue. In politics “change” is a buzzword, like Barack Obama’s initial campaign slogan, “Change we can believe in.” People are always ...read more

Servants Of The Word

Contributed by John Gaston on Dec 4, 2019

Luke says we're to be "servants" of the Word, not be critics of it or think we're over it. WHY? Because the Word of God is Divine/Eternal, because it's superior to us, and because it is the final authority. The Bible is the embodiment of knowledge and truth.

SERVANTS OF THE WORD Luke 1:1-4 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: PEOPLE THINK THEY KNOW THE BIBLE 1. Did you hear the story about the lady who was talking to her friend and brought up the Bible. Her friend said, “Oh don’t start trying to tell to me about the Bible; my parents had me read it every day. I’m ...read more
