     | 3,675 views

    Some responses from unbelievers and many Christians when they are invited to church might be: “I can worship anywhere.” “I like to worship while I fish." "I learn just as much staying home and watching a preacher on TV." What response can we give?

    ************ Why does God tell us not to forsake the assembling of ourselves together? Don’t stop meeting together. Some would say "I can worship anywhere. I like to worship while I fish." Others might say, "I learn just as much staying home and watching a preacher on TV." But ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 2,283 views

    The issue of moderate alcohol consumption is often oversimplified by both sides of the issue. This message seeks to address the issue considering the whole counsel of God rather than a couple of proof texts. As the title implies, abstinence is recommended.

    Intro Last week I began sharing with you nine reasons “Why I Don’t Drink Any Alcohol.” In that message we addressed the first three: 1. Drinking a little alcohol easily leads to drinking too much alcohol. It can easily lead to drunkenness which is clearly condemned in Scripture. If you drink a ...read more

    Meaningful And Meaningless Worship Series

    Contributed by Chuck Gohn on Jun 30, 2022
     | 2,731 views

    This sermon focuses on Solomon's somewhat cynical view of Temple worshipers along with his corrective: to "stand in awe of God" and how it applies to our modern day church services.

    I would like to open today’s sermon with a question. Why do we even bother to go to church? I imagine if I was to ask everybody, I would probably get different answers. I think some go out of tradition. Some go because they are feeling pressure from a spouse. Others might be feeling a sense ...read more

     | 2,712 views

    The focus of this sermon is to introduce the series on the book of Ecclesiastes and the idea that life lived in the hear and now (i.e., under the sun) cannot compare to a life lived under the Son (Jesus Christ)

    Good morning. It is great to be back in the ‘burgh rain and all. For some of you who don’t know, I was away for a few weeks for a sabbatical. It was a study time, and I was able to feel somewhat productive. I also had a time of rest. The better news is Debbie and I got to see our lovely ...read more

Wisdom is not just mere intelligence. Wisdom is a combining of an understanding of truth with the good judgement to apply that ...read more
