    Contributed by D Marion Clark on Jul 13, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,425 views

    Sometimes we bring our troubles on ourselves (and on others). That is the case of the wicked as these proverbs note.

    Introduction Troubles; we’ve all got them. Sometimes we keep quiet about them; sometimes we moan loudly. We write songs about them. Indeed, much of the world’s great literature, music and art have sprung from troubles. But sometimes we bring our troubles on ourselves (and on ...read more

    Contributed by Mark Opperman on Dec 5, 2012
     | 7,171 views

    James expresses the fact that life is made up of triumph and tragedy, of sorrow and joy. Sickness can trip us up and sin can entangle us. We rarely know what to expect. Life is often very unpredictable. Our trust level in Christ will impact our response t

    Navigating the Ups and Downs of Life James 5:13-18 13 Is any one of you in trouble? He should pray. Is anyone happy? Let him sing songs of praise. 14 Is any one of you sick?

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,646 views

    Despite experiencing the most dramatic miracles recorded, the Hebrews fell back into their ways of living as though God had done nothing for them. We are going to explore how such a relapse could occur.

    Psalm 78:32 Despite His Wonders 12/30/12 D. Marion Clark Introduction Have you ever made a comment like this? “If that I had happened to me, I would never forget.” We can say that negatively, but I mean positively. “I will never forget what you have done for me.” “I ...read more

    The Golden Rule

    based on 3 ratings
     | 13,244 views

    "Love" should be more than just a buzzword for Christians. God showed his love for us when we were still sinners. Likewise, we should love our friends and our enemies alike and show it by treating them the way we want to be treated.

    [This sermon was preached on 8 July 2018, 7th Sunday after Pentecost / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] Years ago, a man came to me for help. His life was in a mess. When he looked to the past, he saw many relationships that had shipwrecked. Several of them were still haunting him almost daily. His ...read more

    Christmas Is For Purity Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 15, 2021
     | 2,307 views

    Purity is to be prized by categorically every one of God’s children. The last text I read puts it in stark terms: If you don’t prize purity, then you’re not a child of God.

    In a California neighborhood in 2009 one resident decorated his lawn with a depiction of Jesus shooting Santa Claus with a double-barrel shotgun.

    In 1 Thes 2:13-3:13, Paul gives us a wonderful model of an encourager, demonstrating the many ways in which we can encourage one another.

During his Second Missionary Journey, having just been arrested on false charges, beaten, jailed, and run out of town in Philippi, Paul and his companions came to Thessalonica.

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,866 views

    In the first miracle in Mark 5, we see Jesus set free the man who was possessed by many demons. We see the sad reaction of the people of that region and learn the sad truth that some people choose the swine over the Savior. We also learn that everyone has a testimony.

Or into a cemetery? 2. During my elementary school years, we lived on the northeast side of Syracuse and around the ...read more

    The Pharisees Confront Jesus: What Does It Mean To Be A Hypocrite? An Issue Of The Heart Series

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Jul 10, 2023
     | 1,595 views

    The Pharisees today are often regarded as hypocrites, mean, nasty, people who killed Jesus, and it’s true that they plotted against Jesus. But in general these were not bad people. These were religious leaders trying to help the people live according to God’s ways.

    A lot of the scriptures that we look at, I feel like we get to understand another piece of the puzzle about who Jesus really is. It’s like we dive into a moment in history and we get to look over the shoulder of Jesus and see what he does, and why he does it, and we’re amazed. We want to live like ...read more
