    Would You Too Reject Him?

    It would seem the vineyard image is appropriate for this time of year. I’ve read that the Napa Valley is expecting a great crush this year. In Amador County, here in California, there is weekend tasting and festivities in honor of the harvest vintage. Maybe some of our people are there right ...read more

    What if our country decided to lower the standards of competition? Anyone who wanted to go to the Olympics and represent our country could go. What would the result be? What if this same idea of lowering standards was done in the church?

    Dirty Rotten Scoundrels Jeremiah 6:12-16 World class athletes train for 10 to 12 hrs a day preparing themselves for their competition.

    For Christmas Eve Communion: Jesus remembered in the time of trial that He was born for a purpose, and He intentionally declared that purpose. He fulfilled the mission for which God sent Him.

    On Sunday I offered the opinion that I was probably the only preacher in town who was using the Old Testament on the Sunday before Christmas. Well, maybe some used those Isaiah passages about a child named Immanuel and the Prince of Peace. But Elijah? Who would have thought that Elijah and his ...read more

    People live their lives by faith. The question is, "Upon WHAT do you rest your faith?" This sermon (based on the hymn) answers that question.
