    I Surrender All? Part 2

    When we talk about surrendering to God we think of those who give Him one tenth of their income, or who become foreign missionaries. This account of Abraham reveals that God desires every believer to surrender everything - even their very life.

    I SURRENDER ALL? PART 2 God desires absolute surrender from every believer. Genesis 22:9-19 Introduction What do you trust in? 1. Money? What if you became the victim of identity theft and you found your bank accounts emptied and your credit destroyed? 2. Career? What if your company suddenly ...read more

    This message addresses some of the primary issues facing troubled marriages today. It was a follow up to a message called "Marriage that Goes the Distance" that I did the preceding week.

    Top Ten Marriage Killers Communication in marriage can be a challenge can’t it? You only have to be married five minutes to know what I am talking about. That’s due in part to the fact that men and women speak two entirely different languages. Last Sunday’s message was on Marriage that Goes the ...read more

    Jesus is also in quite a difficult situation. How did He handle it? How did He pray? We can learn from Jesus’ example of how we should pray in difficult, hard, and emotional wrenching times.

    Today we hear a lot of praise for the firemen and policemen in our nation.

    And these two professions deserve a lot of praise because they risk their life to protect people in harms way everyday! But among these who protect us each day, I also have a lot of praise for the farmers in this country. These are the men and women who feed the world. If we ride by and see a ...read more

    Abraham experienced a crisis of faith. He hesitated to trust God to continue. Every famine is a test from God. Can we wholeheartedly trust and submit to him? That is always the question. God doesn't leave us even when we leave him.

Of course, if someone in your house is having a heart attack, you would call the paramedics. If you have a fire, you would call the fire ...read more
