    God: 1) Creates and arranges our bodies within the womb (139:13–15) 2) He schedules each day of our lives before we are born (139:16). And 3) He thinks wonderful and innumerable thoughts about us constantly (139:17–18).

    Since the death of Comedian George Carlin who died of a heart attack at age 71 recently, several commentators have mentioned his impact.

    Sermon 2 in a study in HEBREWS

    “When He had made purification of sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, 4 having become as much better than the angels, as He has inherited a more excellent name than they. 5 For to which of the angels did He ever say, “YOU ARE MY SON, TODAY I HAVE BEGOTTEN YOU”?

    The key to being joyful always and being thankful in all circumstances is to humbly rely on God.

    A few weeks ago James Rogers, our senior minister, spoke about songs he hated. I’ve got a number of songs I hate. I can’t really share them with you now because they’ve normally got some sort of profanity in the title as well as in the lyrics themselves. Then there’s the songs that I just can’t get ...read more

    This wonderful passage of Scripture gives us an accreditation of ministry. It seems like there is much that opposes God’s work today just as there was opposition against the labors of the Apostle Paul in his work with Jesus Christ.

    2nd in 5 part series. This is an all church campaign/study put out by Zondervan in order for us not to just go to church but be the church.

    True worship begins as 1) A Response to Contact with the Living God 2) Not limited to a Specific Location 3) Only as Valuable as Who it is Based on and 4) Is all About the Attitude of the Heart.

    Rico Tice makes an interesting observation in his book, Christianity Explored: “I didn’t have a particularly religious upbringing myself. In fact, my experience of Christianity was limited to a few dull sermons, slightly spooky people in strange garments, hanging about in dank halls and religious ...read more

     | 3,863 views

    The love Mary & Joseph had for each other, coupled with the love they had for God, culminates in one of the greatest love stories ever told - the story of Christmas.

    Christmas: From Joseph’s Eyes I’ve watched the Jerry Springer Show a few times. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a Jerry Springer junkie, but the few times I have seen the show has given me a pretty good idea of how that program operates.

    This sermon deals with the problem of besetting sin that we are commanded to lay aside.

    Elijah met the Widow of Zarephath just as she was preparing to eat her last supper. It's a wonderful story of God's provision if we would only learn to trust him.

    Getting Ready for the Last Supper Sunday, March 13, 2011 PM By Pastor James May If there’s one prophet of the Old Testament that I love reading about it has to be Elijah.

    Often we Christians believe that we are so insulated against evil that we do not need to be isolated from evil. Everything the Bible says is opposed to such a view. The people and the activities we are involved with can hurt us and cause us to fall.

    PROVERBS 4:10-19 WATCH YOUR STEP [Jude 24, 25] A sign on the entrance to the IRS office read, "Watch your step." A sign on the exit read, "Watch your language." Two good pieces of advice! The first warning is especially appropriate, for as we walk through life, it is easy to stumble and ...read more
