    This is a brief graveside service I prepared for a person I was not familiar with. This is a short and simple, but respectful ceremony. Although it is simple and short, it does have some nice touches.

    Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life; he that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. And whosoever lives and believes in me shall never die.” I want to encourage you, as we gather together this afternoon, to remember that God is our refuge and our strength. We are ...read more

    Our future relies on what Jesus has done for us. This funeral sermon is for someone who many would consider had weak faith, but who had faith in Jesus and relied on God’s forgiveness

    I have a question for you to think about… Where or what do you gain comfort from? What do you rely on for your future? Some people put their trust in money. And recently they have been hugely disappointed. Others in having a good time. Some in friends. Some on themselves or their way of doing ...read more

For the bindings we use on ourselves are generally so snug that we cannot ...read more
