    INTRO: This week Ann and the kids did some planting. We have a little plot in our backyard that we’ve designated for the kids’ garden. Last year we planted a few things – including a short lived goldfish pond, in that area, and on one of the sunny afternoons Ann took them out there and put some ...read more

    Christians are responsible for developing God’s reputation in the world. The failure to do this well always leads to action from God.

    Holiness and the Name of God Text: Ezekiel 36:16-27 Introduction: Proverbs 22:1 says, "A good name is more desirable than great riches; to be esteemed is better than silver or gold." Now of course what’s being talked about here is not really a quality name, although if you’re thinking about one ...read more

    To encourage believers to share their faith during the holidays.

    Author Kevin Harney tells the following story in his book Seismic Shifts: It was a battle. A wrestling match. A test of wills.

     | 8,654 views

    Today we will talk about lying. Our goal is to go beyond the obvious instruction that we should not lie. Our goal is to learn what our lies teach us about the condition of our hearts.

    Sermon Notes May 20, 2012 FBCam “What Lies Beneath a Lie?” Genesis 20:1-18 One of the many pieces of advice we received before our wedding was to save the top tier of your wedding cake and eat and eat it on your first anniversary. We had a tiny little freezer. For one full year, ...read more

    Who am I/ Why am I here? What is my purpose? Solomon addresses these questions in chapter 4 as he experiences the troubles, toils, trials and tears of life "under the sun."

    Ecclesiastes 4:1-16 The Woe Everyone Knows! Then I returned and considered all the oppression that is done under the sun: And look! The tears of the oppressed, But they have no comforter— On the side of their oppressors there is power, but they have no comforter.¹ Therefore I praised the ...read more

    The tabernacle is a pattern not only for the Old Testament, but for our worship of God today. We have full access to God's holy place but so few enter in.

    In 1922, Archeologist Howard Carter discovered an entrance to an Egyptian tomb. A sealed doorway. And on the doorway was the seal of the Pharaoh Tutankhamen. Most tombs have been plundered and robbed long ago but this one was nearly pristine. Behind that door were treasures beyond their wildest ...read more

    Like Barnabas, we can either be stumbling blocks or stepping stones for Christ.

    Acts 4:36-37; 11:23-26 On the path of life, do you tend to be a stumbling block or a stepping stone person? Are you living for Christ in such a connected and convincing fashion that you pick people up instead of tripping them up?

     | 12,406 views

    At Pentecost God sent his Holy Spirit, for the first time, to remain in believers forever. Since the Holy Spirit manifests through each believer, we cannot say "I don't have anything to offer." We also can't take the credit, since God does the work.

    1 Corinthians 12:4-12, 27 God’s Creative Work in the Church Today, local church membership has lost its appeal. Why bother? Why not drift from church to church and see what meets my needs? Back in the beginning, though—before church buildings and budgets and board meetings—church membership at ...read more

    Gideon was an unlikely candidate to lead Israel against the Midianites, but God often uses the weak and inadequate. Our service to Him is not dependent upon our wisdom or ability, but it must rely on the Lord through faith.

    Overcoming our Reluctance Judges 6: 11-16 Living the Christian life isn’t always easy. In fact, we are often forced to deal with difficulties and struggles. At times we surrender to defeat and feel as if we lack the ability to overcome. I am sure we have all dealt with moments of insecurity, ...read more
