    Your attitude represents your very character. The Word of God says in Prov. 23:7; "For as a man (or woman) thinks in his or her heart, so he/she is..."

    The other day, I was in the grocery store, and I noticed a lot of gloomy faces. I began thinking about my mother, who a year ago lost my father, her husband of over 60 years, and she seemingly has been in a funk ever since. I have tried cheering her up, but her mood stays the same. Now, I know ...read more

     | 5,030 views

    This message looks at the how Christmas and it's main characters are introduced in the OT and Luke and Matthew. Like Dickens Christmas Carol the five parts are each called Staves. (if it was good enough for Dickens)

    A Christmas Carol Stave one When Angela and I first got married she told me that one of the things that she did with her dad each Christmas was to watch A Christmas Carol.

  • God Loves Camping

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on Oct 4, 2022
     | 2,115 views

    The best way to get to know God is by spending some alone time with Him. We see this is true for Bible characters who went "camping" and while they were alone, God met with them.

    Honestly, I don’t like camping too much. I’m away from the comforts of home, living on simple food, risking my life with wild animals around, etc. I’m not an outdoor-type person. But did you know that God loves camping? Here in Genesis 28, Jacob goes camping while on the way to his Uncle Laban’s ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,039 views

    This message looks at the account of a very short man named Zacchaeus. Though he was small in stature, he was by no means small in nature, for he demonstrated a character that many of us need to have in our own lives.

    This morning we are going to look at the story of a very short man named Zacchaeus. Most of us have probably at least heard of Zacchaeus before because of a popular childhood song that we learned in church, either in Sunday school or Vacation Bible School. The lyrics of the song start something ...read more

  • Crossing The Line Series

    Contributed by David Richardson on Apr 17, 2008
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,407 views

    Man is ultimately responsible for any and all of his actions. Nowhere in the Bible will you find a verse that excuses man’s sin. Rather what it does prove is that we have an all-knowing God, an omniscient God.

    Crossing the Line Scripture: Romans 3:5-6 5 But if our unrighteousness brings out God’s righteousness more clearly, what shall we say? That God is unjust in bringing his wrath on us? (I am using a human argument.) 6 Certainly not! If that were so, how could God judge the world? 7 Someone might ...read more

    Trinity Baptist Church June 24, 2007 Ruth: God redeems A bold request Ruth 3:1-18 Marriage proposals come in all shapes and varieties. From the stories I’ve heard, many proposals don’t happen soon enough for one or the other person in the relationship! I have to admit -- before ...read more

  • Mango Of Meekness Series

    Contributed by James Westervelt on Mar 30, 2002
    based on 154 ratings
     | 12,595 views

    This is what Biblical meekness is all about: "Strength under control," "being unoccupied with self and genuinely concerned for God and others." It is the exact opposite of "self-assertiveness" and "self-interest."

    THE MANGO OF MEEKNESS Intro: A mango is a tropical fruit which hasn’t really "caught on" like the orange, the pineapple or the banana. For those who have acquired a taste for it, it’s sweet and delicious. But for those who haven’t, it’s "different" enough to taste "funny." ...read more

    based on 9 ratings
     | 3,429 views

    As a child I was more serious about avoiding Hell than going to Heaven. My knowledge of Heaven was inaccurate. A biblical understanding of Heaven creates a longing to go there.
