    If we are concerned only about earthly possessions, we will enter eternity empty-handed.

    Text: “…a man’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions” (Luke 12:15). I would venture to say that you and I learned a long time ago that material possessions are not the most important items in life. The first ten years of my life was spent in the coal-mining hills of Southern ...read more

    A life lived without God is an empty life. A life lived with God is full and meaningful.

    A Life Worth Living Psalm 127:1-5 Only two psalms are attributed to Solomon, this one and Psalm 72. Scholars class Psalm 127 as a wisdom psalm. It is the eighth in a series of psalms called “songs of ascent” or “songs of degrees”. The psalm says two things about life: life without God is empty and ...read more

    If your life is empty, you should drink more water and have faith in God

    Read Genesis 1:1-5 I closed my eyes what do I see; darkness is everywhere. Suddenly, a light appeared in the midst. I wondered at him who caused this to happen. The bible says “let your eye be single less your whole body be full of darkness.” I knew that didn’t happen on its own, ...read more

    Ponder the various responses of the people who came to know of the empty tomb and the resurrection of Jesus.

    Can this be real? That Jesus died and then came back to life? • What does it mean to us if He is dead? Does it really matter? The truth is, it matters. If Jesus claims to be God and comes from heaven, and He remains dead, then there is no hope for anyone. • Death ends everything. Death will be ...read more

    "First, I preached my church empty, and then preached it full again."

    David Foster Wallace said, "The truth will set you free. But not until it is finished with you,” in other words, the truth has to be assimilated in your conscience before it can set you free. Stanley Hauerwas, of Duke Divinity school, says, in effect, that, when we don’t let the truth ...read more

    Obedience is not empty duty, but the surrendered, grateful, Spirit-filled response of a heart alive in Christ.

    Opening Story – The Boy in the Corner A little boy had been disobedient. His mother sent him to the corner and said, “You sit there.” With folded arms, slumped in his chair, he muttered, “I might be sitting on the outside, but I’m standing on the inside.” That’s obedience… but only on the ...read more

    Too many professing Christians believe Christ needs a little help to finish His work. They are like the Judiazers Paul fought and like Cain who wanted God to accept His work rather than having the faith of Abel.

    Act 15:22 Then pleased it the apostles and elders, with the whole church, to send chosen men of their own company to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas; namely, Judas surnamed Barsabas, and Silas, chief men among the brethren: 23 And they wrote letters by them after this manner; The apostles and ...read more

    If Jesus Christ did not rise from the dead, then the past two thousand years have been the greatest tragedy and travesty of human civilization ever recorded.

    There is enough credible eyewitness testimony and extra biblical evidence to verify the historical significance and fact that the event of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ as written in the Scriptures and secular history is true.
