    Some fathering advocates would say that almost every social ill faced by America’s children is related to fatherlessness. The data supports the fact that from fatherless homes children are more likely to be poor, become involved in drug and alcohol abuse

    History: The idea for creating a day for children to honor their fathers began in Spokane, Washington. A woman by the name of Sonora Smart Dodd thought of this idea for Father’s Day while listening to a Mother’s Say sermon in 1909. Having been raised by her father, William Jackson smart, after ...read more

    Why didn’t the father go after his Prodigal Son? Why did he just sit and wait when he could have done so much more to bring his son home?

    OPENING STATEMENT: Over the past few weeks, we’ve been looking at how we can create a G-rated (a G-od centered) home in the midst of an R-rated world. This week, we’re going to look at a crucial element of that effort – fathers. ILLUS: Dr. James Dobson told the story of when he was about 3 three ...read more

    This is the fourth message of five from the text in Isaiah 9:6 for Advent, Christmas, and Ephiphany on the Names of Jesus. As our Everlasting Father, Jesus is always faithful to us.

    Appreciate the heart of the Father. Don’t waste your life away. Treasure the resources God has given us. Love the things He loves.

    (I have taken most thoughts in this sermon from Rodney J. Buchanan’s ’The Father’s House’, July 7, 2002, Mulberry St. UMC, Mt. Vernon, OH.) Let’s take a look at this interesting story again. Looking at the three characters in this story, we can learn something about ourselves and our heavenly ...read more

    God the Father Acts 17:22-25 INTRO.: Genesis 1:27 records these words, "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them." (NIV.)

    This sermon relates the grief of David over the death of Absalom to God’s grief over our sin.

    Turn with me to 2 Samuel 18. Read 2 Samuel 18:24-33. Here we see a sad picture. King David is well advanced in years. He is no longer the young vibrant man that he once was. He is a broken man. The years had taken their toll on this once strong warrior. He had seen his family fall apart ...read more
