The story is told of a university library, where there appeared - on the walls - in bold, sprawling letters, about 12” high…two (2) words of graffiti - "APATHY RULES!"

A sermon I preached using an outline from Chuck Swindoll.
Intro: If you have ever been to a cardiologist, you probably know what a stress test is like.

Another sermon inspired from Chuck Swindolls Living on the ragged edge
You’ve no doubt seen the t-shirts or the billboards, or watched the commercials, where the theme was nothing more than…”if it feels good …do it!” It even makes its way into boutique shops, handcrafted on little plaques, and the bookstores line their shelves with self help books like “looking out ...read more

4th sermon on the life of Joseph as inspired by the writings of Chuck Swindoll
For the most part our study of Joseph to this point has been rather sobering.

Last week we watched as he interpreted the dream of the cup bearer and knew for ...read more

Scripture: 1 Corinthians 7:25-35
introductory sermon to a series on the life of Joseph. Most of the sermon content was inspired from Chuck Swindolls "Joseph" book.
Jokingly they said; “I don’t get mad pastor, I just get even.” Sadly enough that little phrase that we used to laugh at has become more of a reality than we want to accept. How else can we explain so many lawsuits, road rage or the explosive reaction by those who feel they have been ...read more

4 essential truths about the afterlife (Material adapted from a Bible study from Insight for Living, Chuck Swindoll)
This is a complex question. What about this teaching that brothers must marry their brother’s widow?

Her husband’s brother shall take her ...read more
