    This message from a series that looks at God's desire for us to live life in a way that avoids being overloaded and overextended.

    We are overloaded!!! Americans are living their lives at a break-neck pace, pushing the limits to live up to the expectations put on them by society. When compared to lives fifty years ago we see that there is something conspicuously missing. Our lives have very little time and space; if any. ...read more

    This is probably the oldest Psalm in the Bible, and was composed by Moses during the 40 years wandering of the children of Israel in the wilderness. There is so much spiritual profit in meditating this Psalm but, at the moment, fix your attention on v.9.

    Intro: This is probably the oldest Psalm in the Bible, and was composed by Moses during the 40 years wandering of the children of Israel in the wilderness.

    No One Likes A Bullying God Series

    Contributed by Troy Luttrell on Mar 21, 2014
     | 5,696 views

    This sermon addresses the question that if God is a God of love and mercy, why does the Bible seem to suggest that God is more like a bully that He is friend.

    Background: • Last week we talked about whether it is possible for God to change His mind. And we learned that God’s heart is set to move to one of two positions depending on man’s reaction….judgment for wickedness; mercy and forgiveness for ...read more

    There are some passages that seem to suggest that God might be stretching the truth with some of His promises, but the reality is the God of the Bible does not lie.

    Background: • Our difficult verse is found in Psalms 37:25 – “I have been young and now I am old, Yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken or his descendants begging bread.” Is it true that no Christians (God’s children) have ever been hungry enough ...read more

    Raising a family is like building an olive orchard, and it is hard work.

    Feast of the Holy Family (Sunday after Christmas) Thirteen Days of Christmas Since the family is the basic unit of society, the Church, and her Scripture, has much to say about it.

    The young make mistakes, and if they don’t have a strong and self-controlled father figure in their lives, they often make rash decisions and hurt themselves and others in the act.

    Saturday of the 25th Week in Course 2022 When we read this portion of the Wisdom book of Qoheleth/Ecclesiastes, it is always wise itself to remember who is writing it to whom.

    Big Idea: God does not lie; He said, “Be holy, for I am holy" (1 Pet. 1:16, NKJV).

    I Want to Be Like Jesus As we look around at the growing influence of chaos and evil, it could be easy to keep silent, give up, and accept that being holy is impossible, even though Scripture guides us to be like the Lord. In that moment of doubt, we remember the Bereans. Luke admired their ...read more
