     | 10,659 views

    Jesus tells us the signs of the end of the age. His three-fold warnings are: (1) Do not be deceived; (2) Do not be afraid; and (3) Do not be distracted.

    Luke 21:7-19, 34-36 [The pointers and some thoughts in this sermon were taken from John Hamby’s sermon A Three-fold Warning, Luke 21:5-36.] Warning signs are good. In fact, they are very important in some situation. If you are driving, warning signs can be a matter of life and death for those ...read more

     | 3,821 views

    Money may actually distract us from Kingdom priorities. Some things money cannot buy are compassion for the needy, passion for the lost, and love for one another.

    I begin this morning with an invocation from my favorite poet, the bard of Baltimore, Ogden Nash, who addressed our favorite god in prayer: “Oh, money, money, money; some may think thee holy. But I cannot figure out how thou goest out so fast and how thou comest in so slowly.” Ogden Nash, ...read more

     | 1,485 views

    There is nothing that Jesus cannot do. But we can only get the message if we don’t let ourselves be distracted by trivia, and if our relationship with God is healthy.

    One of the reasons people loved to listen to Jesus was that he talked about things they knew about, scenes and events from their everyday lives. But the lives of the people Jesus talked to can seem very far away from our own, sometimes. His illustrations don’t always mean that much to us. What’s ...read more
