    I must earnestly believe that God exists, that I matter to Him, and that He has the power to help me recover.

    Last week we said all of us need recovery because none of us is perfect. The root cause is our sin nature, our desire to play God, to be in control rather than give God control.

    We live in world of compromise where people are letting go of standards, values, and morals to have recognition, position, titles, clout, and prestige. Society has pushed for the lowering of standards with the so-called premise of improving equality, acceptance, and accessibility.

    When we "Contend For The Faith" we need to realize the importance of contending for the fact that we have been created in the image of God. We're not an accident - we have value and a reason to live. But if folks damage that "image" how can they fix that?

    (We started out the sermon with a video from BBC One Videos - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auSo1MyWf8g - which displays the wonder of God’s creation accompanied by a poetic reading of the song “What A Wonderful World”) What a wonderful world we live in.

    The things in this world, even the things that we pray earnestly for, often end up distracting us from the Giver of the Gift.

    Dependence Day This morning we look at dependence on God, and identifying the difference between loving gifts, and loving and worshiping the Giver of All Good Gifts. Our Gospel lesson for this morning is a great lesson, in fact, for Thanksgiving Day services. As we examine it, we can see a nice ...read more
