    A sermon for an Armed Forces Sunday celebration, looking at ministry to those in uniform.

    -Our Gospel lesson for today might seem a bit strange to preach for an Armed Forces Sunday -Just look at the words in verse 12 -Jesus tells His 1st century disciples and His 21st century disciples to “love one another as He has loved us” -Contrast that with what we are celebrating, at least in ...read more

    God’s Love for us is an active love. We are to actively love one another in reponse to His grace.

    John 15:9-17 Anne and I are learning about love. It’s not that we don’t love each other, we really do. But we’re learning about a different kind of love. The kind of love Killian is teaching us. There is no doubt that we both have very deep feelings of love for our little boy and each other. ...read more

    Sermon 24 in a study in HEBREWS

    “and you have forgotten the exhortation which is addressed to you as sons, “MY SON, DO NOT REGARD LIGHTLY THE DISCIPLINE OF THE LORD, NOR FAINT WHEN YOU ARE REPROVED BY HIM; 6 FOR THOSE WHOM THE LORD LOVES HE DISCIPLINES, AND HE SCOURGES EVERY SON WHOM HE RECEIVES.” NASB There are some things ...read more

    The fifth sermon of a post-Easter series on Love.

    (Slide 1) It was a conversation that has stuck with me over the years. I was not a part of the conversation, per se, but I was a part of the audience that listened. I think that it took place in 1986 but I cannot remember. It was, I remember, a Sunday night at the church where I was serving as a ...read more

    If you were to ask me what was the most important lesson I’d learned about marriage in my (ahem!) years in the married state, I’d give you my answer with no hesitation at all: love is a choice, not a feeling.

    “During the marriage ceremony the two become one - on the honeymoon they discover which one.” – I quoted from guy who seems to be a deep-thinker. But I think this is rather the result of some personal frustrations, rather than a generic truth. Maybe it’s the age I’m getting to, but I’ve noticed ...read more

    56th in a series from Ephesians. Job satisfaction comes from taking Jesus to work with me.

    In 1977, country singer Johnny Paycheck recorded the hit single “Take This Job and Shove It”. The chorus of that song began and ended with these well-known words: “Take this job and shove it, I ain’t working here no more.” Apparently, that song really struck a nerve with people, becoming his ...read more

Lots of children were waiting in line to get their face painted by a local artist who was decorating them with tiger paws. 2. A girl in line turned to the ...read more

    We are sorely tempted to institute rules that limit our ability to love. In God's kingdom love always trumps rules.

    Luke 13:10-17 “Love Trumps Rules” INTRODUCTION It is amazing to me that a brief story of a diminutive, hunchbacked woman who came into contact with Jesus in a small synagogue in an isolated village in Galilee over two thousand years ago can have such a tremendous impact on our ...read more
