    “The Lord Is My Helper, I Will Not Be Afraid.” 1) Say it with confidence. 2) Live it with competence.

    They say that most people would rather die than give a speech. Is that how you feel as you anticipate standing in front of us this afternoon, Daniel? The thing is you’ll be giving more than a speech; you’ll be confessing your faith. In a little while you will tell us that you would rather die than ...read more

    I used this sermon as one of several in a series on Clay Pots (Earthen Vessels). This was the one I used on Father’s Day during that series.

    I recently came across a Chinese parable that eludes to our thoughts for today’s text. It’s a tale about a water-bearer and his two pots of clay. An elderly peasant had two large clay pots. One of the pots had a crack down its side to a point about half way. The other pot, perfect! Each had been ...read more

    "The Power Of Agreeing Prayer"

    based on 9 ratings
     | 12,864 views

    Power is found in praying in agreement with God and with my fellow Christians.

    Today, I want to speak to you about the power of agreeing prayer. Jesus speaks of the importance of agreement in verse 19 of our passage. It is interesting to note that the meaning of the word used by our Lord for "agree" literally means to "symphonize." It is the word from which we get our modern ...read more

    Paradise Lost

    Like our first parents, each of us have sinned and fallen short of God's glory. The story of the Fall tells us much about God's giving heart, Satan's destructive lies, and humanity's need for a Savior, of which God provided from the beginning.

    Genesis 2:15-17; 3:1-7 Paradise Lost “Genesis” means “beginnings.” This first book of the Bible introduces us to the beginning of creation and lots of other things. Today we’ll look at “The Fall,” the beginning of sin and all that goes wrong with the world. It would be nice to blame Adam and Eve, ...read more
