    This is a sermon about dong more for God with what we have. No one is excused from working for God. This message is a challenge for Christians to do more and learning that they have been given the abilities, resources, gifts etc to do so.

     | 13,268 views

    We continue looking at the astounding mathematics of grace by looking at a widow's very small offering that Jesus says is more than anyone else gave. I also have graphics available.

    (Show video of comedian Anthony Griffith talking about hand-me-downs) That's funny. Hand-me-downs, leftovers; those things are okay I guess if you're talking about old clothes or your mom's cooking. But there are other times when leftovers aren't such a good idea: handkerchiefs, motor oil, maybe ...read more

  • Labor Day: Laziness And Apathy Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 9, 2021
     | 5,113 views

    Apathy is so elusive is that it usually works in tandem with some other toxic habit. Apathy seems to want to work as the set-up punch to other sins.

    Happy Labor Day Weekend to all of you. We continue our sermon series on the Seven Deadly Sins of the Family. Our fourth deadly sin for families is apathy. But I don’t care what you call it. (Yes, I thought we would honor hard workers everywhere by talking about laziness on Labor Day ...read more

     | 8,550 views

    On Judgment Day, we will be called on to give a personal report to God. That report will be based on the choices we make here and now. We can make any changes we want to here and now. It will be too late to make them when we stand before God.

    Have you ever been afraid to use your gifts, talents or skills? Have you ever thought that your skills and talents were not appreciated by other people? If the answer to either one or both of these questions is “yes”, then you can probably sympathize with the third slave on the Parable ...read more

    Giving is an important part of the Lord’s work, because spiritual ministry is carried out in the physical realm. We can give without loving God, but we cannot love God without giving.

    An Earful of Cheerful Givers (2 Corinthians 8-9) 1. Churches have different ways of doing things. But bulletin bloopers and typos cross denominational lines. • Bertha Belch, a missionary from Africa, will be speaking tonight at Calvary Memorial Church in Racine.

    The scripture reveals the significance of every member within the body of Christ, the church. We all are important to God; and should in like manner be important to one another in Christ.
