    We say we believe, but are those just empty words? It seems the Jewish believers Jesus is addressing in this Scripture believe with their lips but not their heart.

    A group hunters from the lower 48 hire a float plane and fly out into the Alaska bush to go caribou hunting, just as they did the year before. During their hunt, they are successful, and take 6 large caribou. As the pilot returns to pick them up, he tells the men that only 4 caribou can come on the ...read more

    Jesus stands alone as a man who claimed to be alive before Abraham and He predicted He would come back from the grave.

    INTRODUCTION Today we’re going to talk about “Seven Words that Rocked the World.” We’ve all heard about the seven sayings of Jesus from the cross. But these seven words were spoken at the empty tomb of Jesus. They were spoken in a cemetery. Cemeteries can be spooky places. ...read more

    The irony of thanksgiving is sometimes those closest to the Father’s blessings can become the least thankful. The Prodigal’s brother demonstrates this reality by his words and actions.

    Thanksgiving’s Empty Chair Luke 15: 25 - 32 INTRODUCE A woman was visiting some people who lived on a farm, and she noticed a pig limping in the backyard with a wooden leg. She asked the farmer, "What happened to the pig?" The farmer said, "Oh, Betsy is a wonderful pig. One night the house ...read more

    "I am the Bread of Life"... "I am the vine" ... My blood is real drink" ... Jesus words are indeed words to hang unto because they are life-giving. They are not empty words, they are words of spirit and life (John 6:63), words that give us hope.

    God said His Word would not return to Him empty. What does that mean to us? And how can we know that that is true?

    George Faull once wrote fact that “atheists, agnostics, or skeptics will often try to stump us with a question about our God. These skeptics think they are being clever and they take pride in their great intelligence. They will say (for example) “If God is all powerful, can He create ...read more

    Among the religious there is often a tendency toward long prayers, particularly in public. Too often people measure prayer by its fluency and length, thinking that length means devotion.

Turn to Ecclesiastes 5:2 B. Among the religious there is often a tendency toward long prayers, particularly ...read more

    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
