    This message is part of series from Isaiah paralleling ancient Israel and America. Israel was attempting to exault itself. It exposes the problem of human pride and self-sufficiency.

    ISAIAH 2:6-11 FULL, BUT EMPTY Deuteronomy 18:9-14 Why is it imperative that Israel learn to walk in the light of the Lord? Because there is no future or hope in their present condition and way of life. Isaiah now depicts the foolishness of humanity attempting to exalt itself. The cause ...read more

    Fifth in this series. The Parable of the Ten Virgins shows that I cannot live on someone else's oil.

    I still remember my first date with Mary. I know that she was really impressed when I picked her up in my banana yellow Ford Pinto, especially since it was the middle of summer and that car had no air conditioning – unless you call rolling down both windows and driving as fast as that car ...read more

    Following Jesus will cause us to feel overwhemled because we will want to meet other people’s needs, but when we give Jesus what we have, God multiplies its effect far beyond our expectations.

    I know what some of you are thinking today. Some of you are thinking, "Only 17 shopping days left before Christmas." Others of you are wondering just how you’re going to get that Christmas letter out in time. You’re thinking, "Perhaps it should be a New Year’s letter instead." Let’s face it: This ...read more

    Are You On Empty?

    Faith begins where human supply ends as God fills our emptiness with overflowing grace that turns survival into a testimony of life.

    Faith doesn’t always start with a shout. Sometimes it starts with an empty jar and a tired soul who whispers, “God, I don’t have much left.” That whisper was enough for one widow long ago—and it might be enough for you. There are moments when life drains us. You wake up one day and realize that ...read more

    Humanity was created full, fractured by sin, yet through Christ the Living Water, God refills us to reflect His image again.

    Introduction – Just Add Water I bought a can of dehydrated water the other day. The label said, “Just add water.” I stared at it for a while and thought, Now there’s an honest product — empty but hopeful. A can of dehydrated water — an empty container promising to be full if you supply the one ...read more

    The purpose of this message is to inspire you to go to the next level in God for your life. Since Jesus is alive, and He is, then if you go to the tomb you will not find him there. He is a living Christ and you cannot find him in dead things. So many th

    The Emptiness of Jesus was not only good; it was necessary.

    Emptiness is not usually seen as a good thing. In our lives, we have all kinds of technology to alert us when things get close to empty. - Often I have an alert that goes off to tell me when my gas tank gets close to empty. A bright glowing light and bell goes off alerting me that I’d better stop ...read more
