    Contributed by David Owens on May 6, 2024
     | 1,633 views

    In this sermon, we explore the many promised benefits that come from having and following the wisdom of God. Two primary principles of God's wisdom are: trust God rather than yourself and guard your heart.

    A. As you know, we are in a sermon series on the book of Proverbs called “God’s Wisdom: More Valuable Than Gold.” 1. So far in the series we have focused on how valuable God’s wisdom is and how the proper reverence and respect for God is the beginning of wisdom. 2. Last week, we talked about being ...read more

    Religion That Makes A Difference Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Jul 5, 2021
     | 4,234 views

    James uses very confrontational language as he drives home the point that if we don't put God's Word into practice, then why did we bother to hear it. Religion that makes a difference is religion leads to godly language, godly love, and godly lifestyle.

    Introduction: A. I heard about a man who came into worship late one Sunday. 1. He asked someone in the back of the auditorium, “Is the sermon done yet?” 2. The person wisely answered, “The sermon has been preached, but it has yet to be done.” 3. Wow! You talk about a statement that is truthful and ...read more

    The Patriots - they made a pledge; paid the price and reaped the reward (freedom, a new land, a bright future, - a new beginning). And those who pledge their allegiance to the lamb do the same.

    What Stands In The Way?

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 22, 2004
    based on 49 ratings
     | 5,133 views

    For Ascension Sunday; and in preparation for my retirement as pastor. What stands in our way? Exhaustion? Gather all, gather the marginalized, and pray. Planless? Remember our core values and do them. Lack of urgency? We are accountable to God.

    When a leader and those he leads part company, we learn a whole lot about both of them. Their true values become apparent. The things they are really about become clear. There is no more game-playing when it is time for a leader and those he leads to part company. Sometimes they separate ...read more
