    Some criticize him for staying in Haran saying that he fell short of the promises of God, distracted by the attraction of wealth. I don’t think he was saying, OK, HE’S DEAD! WHAT HAVE I INHERITED? But he did stay in Haran until his father died.

    Part 1 - Genesis 12:1-20 (NASB) - OK, HE’S DEAD. WHAT HAVE I INHERITED? I understand the upheaval of moving to a different city. Packing endless boxes of books, dismantling beds and throwing out all the junk we have accumulated over time - big job. Then watching a huge truck back into our ...read more

    Christ is the Servant King

    The Sunday before the first Sunday in Advent is known as either Christ the King, the Reign of Christ, or the very prosaic Sunday next before Advent.

    based on 9 ratings
     | 9,275 views

    God, the Master Musician, has ordained that we praise Him in song, and music is where Heaven touches the Earth.

    I’m conducting a funeral and looking out over the congregation while we’re singing a familiar hymn…and noting how many of the people gathered are not singing. I’ll even say, “Let’s honor this person’s memory by singing one of his favorite hymns.” And all I get are mostly blank stares. I realize ...read more

     | 13,479 views

    God appears to have established a set of laws that were recognized by Abraham long before the giving of the law to Moses and Abraham must have known that the tithe was due to God.

    Tithing Matthew 6:21 - For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. Tithe means one tenth, or a tenth part of the whole. In its broadest sense, it means a tenth of one’s income contributed to a local church. There are many Christians today who do not practice tithing because ...read more

    When you are bored, you have lost interest; the way to counter that is to develop interests. This means being proactive, intentionally planning ways to reduce boredom, but we want to do this from a Biblical worldview.

    Defeating COVID Boredom in 2021 (topical) 1. Many people have not struggled much with boredom because they are social and involved in church, clubs, and community organizations.
