    What God Can Do With A Happy Meal!

    Contributed by John Gaston on Feb 25, 2016
     | 9,975 views

    Often we feel like our resources are inadequate. "There's no way God can use me." But we find that God delights to use weak things because it redirects people to Him. Little is much when God is in it.

    WHAT GOD CAN DO WITH A HAPPY MEAL John 6:1-13 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Euphemisms of a low IQ 1. Elevator doesn’t reach the top floor; 2. 2 bubbles shy of a bubble bath; 3. Not playing with a full desk; 4. Few French fries short of a Happy Meal; 5. Light’s on but nobody’s ...read more

    Let's see what Jesus' interaction with Nathaniel (in whom is no guile/deception) teaches us about being authentic in our faith and in our world.

    INTRO: 1. ILL. A young boy at the beach in his swimming trunks walks up to a lady sitting in the shade of an umbrella and asked her. “Do you believe in God?” Kind of taken by surprise she responded “Yes” “Are you a christian?” She responded “Why, ...read more

    An in-depth look at Marriage in the First Century and the dominant interpretations of the Foolish versus Wise Bridesmaids.

    “Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them, but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps. As the bridegroom was ...read more

    You Need To Hear From God Yourself

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jan 5, 2022
     | 4,730 views

    The story of the prophet of Judah & the old lying prophet is one of the weirdest passages in Scripture, but is filled with miracles and lessons. We see 4 amazing things, the main lesson, and look at the hidden symbolism pointing to Christ.

    YOU NEED TO HEAR FROM GOD YOURSELF 1 Kings 13:1-32 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Why was the blonde staring at the orange juice container? Because it said, "concentrate." 2. How do you keep a blonde in suspense? (I'll tell you tomorrow.) 3. A blonde approached a pop machine and ...read more

    Love: A New Covenant - 11 Of 14 Series

    Contributed by Russell Metcalfe on Jan 28, 2021
     | 3,076 views

    This day of celebration of family love is the day when we hear His greatest commandment— what some call, "The Eleventh Commandment." "A new commandment I give you," Jesus said, "That you love one another."

    May 10, 1998 John 13:31-35 There are many ways to look at Mother's Day. I see it as an opportunity to celebrate family love. It doesn't have to just be birth mothers that we honor. At least we can think again about how important our loved ones are to us. Children often see things a ...read more

     | 3,070 views

    Paul tells us that Satan can appear as an angel of light. That is a clear picture of the way that Satan and temptation works. What can we learn from it?

    [Have a fishing pole with a hooked worm.] SATAN APPEARS AS AN ANGEL OF LIGHT: Sin takes what is good and twists it just enough. - 2 Corinthians 11:14. - Genesis 3:1. - What does it mean that Satan appears as an angel of light?

    The Ones “go” And The Ones Who Don’t “go”

    Some say they will obey God and don't, Others resist, then go. The Jews in Jesus day did not think they had to obey Jesus so they did not go to work in the vineyard. No serving when you should is a failure.

    The Ones “Go” and The Ones Who Don’t “Go” Kelly Durant Matthew 21:28 “But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first and said, ‘Son, go, work today in my vineyard.’ 29 He answered and said, ‘I will not,’ but ...read more

    Be Patient!

    based on 3 ratings
     | 9,176 views

    Curiosity and greed are part of our DNA, patience is not. It is the fruit of the Holy Spirit and must be cherished and fed in order to grow in our lives. We must be patient with others and with God just as God is patient with us.

    [Sermon preached on 10 December 2017, 2nd Advent / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] I remember how as a young child I became very impatient when Christmas was drawing near. Not so much because of Christmas, but because I also had my birthday. Like most kids, I also had many things on my wish list. My ...read more

    In the New Testament it appears that Adam figures powerfully into why Jesus came to die for our sins. But what is it about Adam that would help us better understand why Jesus came to change our lives?

    OPEN: Believe it or not, I’ve been told that in S. Dakota there was a town called Paradise… and it was named by two residents. Adam and Eve. Most people remember the story of Adam and Eve in Genesis. They sinned, they ate of the fruit God commanded them not to eat, and they lost their paradise, ...read more

    Plugged Into The Holy Spirit

    We can't have power to our appliances unless we are plugged into an outlet. We need to be plugged into the Holy Spirit for power from on high.

    Every electrical appliance you purchase comes with a trouble shooting guide. The purpose of this guide is to instruct you what to check for if the appliance is not running. The number one item is usually, “Ensure that the item is plugged into an electric outlet.” Here again, this must ...read more

     | 4,662 views

    Today I want to preach about people that none of us like to be around. I’m talking about people with a BAD ATTITUDE.

    The reason we do not want to be around such people is because they are miserable and they make everyone around them miserable. Illus: A guy named Matt received a parrot for his birthday. The parrot was fully-grown, with a bad attitude and an even worse vocabulary. Every other word was an ...read more

    This is a study of the gospel of Mark regarding the life of Jesus. It is based on my personal study and research of Scripture and many books and sermons I have read over the years.
