     | 2,639 views

    This is our second study in this series. God describes our problem, how we got there and what it does to us. Once we begin to understand the problem and how devastating it is, perhaps we will begin to appreciate the solution.

    We came from God. We were made to be like God. (As we studied last week). So, what is the problem? Genesis, again, holds the answer. Chapter 3 tells the story. Everything God made was good, very good. But then things change. There was this tree and this serpent. God had put Adam and Eve in a ...read more

    Isaiah is a model for volunteering. There are many reasons why people volunteer. Isaiah did so for 3 reasons – an appreciation for what God had done for Him,a realization of others' need, and God’s will

    Volunteering for Duty Isaiah 6:1-8 In its simplest definition a volunteer is someone who freely, without any legal obligation, chooses to act in recognition of a need.

    Armed Forces Day is time set aside to recognize members of the Armed Forces that are currently serving. I would propose to you that we can and should show appreciation for those who are presently serving in the Armed Forces.

    Title: Appropriate Praise Theme: Biblically Supporting Our Armed Forces The Bible says, "No king is saved by the size of his army; no warrior escapes by his great strength. A horse is a vain hope for deliverance; despite all its great strength it cannot save. But the eyes of the LORD are ...read more

    We are called to remember many things, including our veterans. This sermon analyzed why and how we can show our love, appreciation and our thanks to them for all the things they have afforded our nation.

    This coming Tuesday is our yearly Veteran’s Day holiday. It is a time set apart to remember, celebrate and honor our veterans. But to do so properly, I think we should know what the word “veteran” means. So, I looked it up in the dictionary. The definition of ...read more

    Contributed by Craig Benner on Dec 9, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 567 views

    There are two main magnifying apparatuses: microscopic and telescopic. The correct way to magnify God is via the telescopic method. He is already great and big. We just need to bring His greatness closer for us to appreciate all the more.

    Magnification to make bigger, to amplify, to exalt Ps 69:30 ¶ I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify him with thanksgiving Ps. 34:3 O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together Microscopic- Making something small and minute appear so much bigger. ...read more

    Happiness will never come to those who fail to appreciate what they already have. Most people make the mistake of looking too far ahead for things close by. For example Salvation. Let’s take a closer look!

    Introduction "Is it really worth it?" you ask. This thing called Salvation. "I’ve tried it and it doesn’t work for me." so many say. There’s the problem, so many have TRIED it and Salvation isn’t something you TRY it’s in the one you TRUST! O.K. if Salvation is so hard as you say then let me be ...read more

    Welcome! Today we begin a new 4-week series called Cadence. Now, how many of you have an idea of what the word cadence means?

    In order to understand the upside of the gospel, we need to understand the downside of human sin. If we’re going to appreciate God’s grace in its fullness, we must understand what it is we have been rescued from.

     | 3,335 views

    Do you long for Christ’s return? John was given a glimpse of the glorious Christ. Seeing Christ through Revelation helps us to appreciate Him more and see our lives in the light of the hope we have in Him.

    [I’ve taken some of the thoughts in this sermon from Anne Graham Lotz’s The Vision of His Glory.] The second coming of Christ does not always conjure up the same emotions. • If you are to narrow down your emotions regarding the return of Christ to one word, what would that be? • Discomfort, Fear, ...read more

    Not much is known of Gaius, he was a faithful member in one of the churches of Asia Minor. The Apostle John conveys his own appreciation for Gaius by calling him “beloved,” 4 times in this one chapter. Serveral decesions!

    3 John 2 Are You Prepared to Receive? A pastor was visiting a family one day. He knocked on the door but no one answered it. He knocked again and again, but still no answer. He thought he heard someone inside but they just wouldn’t answer the door. Finally he wrote a note and ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,650 views

    When John told the truth against political power (Herod) there were consequences. The same was true for Jesus, his followers. The 'values" of the world does not always appreciate the "truth" God offers in Jesus, "the way, the truth, and the life."
