    An Envious Heart

    Contributed by Alan Smith on Apr 20, 2006
    based on 31 ratings
     | 14,177 views

    It’s been said that there are two kinds of people in the world -- those who are millionaires and those who would like to be. And that’s one example of jealousy, but it’s only a piece of it.

    Introduction: Those of you who are Muppet fans will know that one of Kermit the Frog’s most famous lines is, “It’s not easy being green.” But I beg to differ. Shakespeare called jealousy “the green sickness”, and we often speak of people being “green with envy”. And, in that regard, it’s all ...read more

    Forgive & Set Yourself Free

    The ultimate proof of total forgiveness takes place when you and I sincerely petition God to let those who have hurt us off the hook, NO MATTER WHAT THEY’VE DONE!

    Whenever I preached here a couple of months ago, I shared some of my testimony and I briefly touched on the subject of forgiveness and the powerful affect that it had on me. I know that the Lord dealt with some of you in that service and about some issues in your own life. Pastor Hanchey asked me ...read more

    Jesus tells his disciples what will happen and it it is crazy stuff.

    It’s crazy talk John 3: 1-17 Some time back there was an email going around that has the subject: “How many Christians does it take to change a light bulb,” It is a turn of an old joke, I thought about that this week as I was preparing the message… I want to share some of it with you this ...read more

    Sermon 5 in a study in the Sermon on the Mount

    “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.” As we come to examine this fourth beatitude I make two fundamental observations. One is that it is the first one that is not focused on us, but focused on God. The first three have to do with the ...read more

    We live in a society that is obsessed with self-fulfillment and self-centeredness. •And Christians often share that obsession, buying into this “me first” attitude. •Yet when we examine the book of Acts, we see in the Church a community characterized b

    “Sharing All Things” The Church’s Example in Giving Acts 4:32-37 One of the things we learn from children is their natural, inborn tendency toward selfishness. •From a baby’s perspective, “What’s mine is mine, What’s yours is mine, and whatever I want is mine.” •And this natural selfishness ...read more

    God has his appointed time for judgment but He also has an appointed time for rewarding. Let me mention a few things about God’s rewarding. I’m not sure we comprehend just how much God speaks of rewards in the Bible.

    Heaven and Rewards or God’s Way of Rewarding 4-24-05pm Note: many of the thoughts were taken from Randy Alcorn’s book, "In Light of Eternity" Two men owned farms side by side.

    The Requirements Of The New Covenant

     | 6,598 views

    The author of Hebrews has made the case that the New Covenant is superior to (and fulfills) the Old Covenant. What then are the requirements of this new covenant?

    Before we continue our study of Hebrews this morning, I want to take a moment to comment on our Gospel lesson found in Mark chapter 12. I love that short little story about the widow who placed her two coins in the offering. I love the way that Jesus so graciously commends this woman—not because ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 13,210 views

    The family is His idea. The nurture of the family is a high priority for God. That fact is quite clear when we consider all the fences God builds around family relationships and the emphasis His Word places on proper order of the godly family.

    Family! Pleasure, pain, comforting, aggravating - and so much more, right? A few weeks ago I had the pleasure of going with my Mom and Dad to a reunion of her family in Indiana. For a weekend I interacted with a few dozen people with whom I share nothing but DNA a common ancestor. We gathered ...read more

    In this special visitation, we see that there are three different responses that we can have to the Child: we can oppose Him, ignore Him, or Worship Him

    The Magi Visits Jesus – Dec. 24th 2006 The Scripture text this morning is Matthew 2:1-12. This event is always associated with the Christmas story, even though it probably took place when Jesus was a little older.
