    This sermon teaches how to discern the difference between God’s voice, our own desires, and other influences. It provides tools for distinguishing divine direction and encourages believers to trust God’s guidance even when the path is unclear.

    In life, we are constantly faced with choices—decisions that affect our relationships, careers, finances, and spiritual growth.

    Contributed by Duane Wente on Sep 1, 2024
     | 2,405 views

    Fellowship was more than just an activity for the early Christians—it was a way of life that fostered deep connections, mutual support, and spiritual growth. Through fellowship, including shared meals, prayer, and encouragement, the early church thrived in unity and love.

    Introduction Video Ill.: Community — Church Fuel 42 They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to the fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.

    I do ministry in nursing homes & sometimes the residents have the mentality level of toddlers. Colton's simple childlike description of what our Home Sweet Home will be like in Heaven is for Real for Kids will be encouraging to them.

    Who here has been on a vacation or trip somewhere? After being on the journey for a while where did you want to be? Where did you want to go? As the saying goes, there’s no place like home! Why is that? Why do we feel drawn to go home? For most of us, one reason is that home is a place where ...read more

    Isaiah's encouragement to Ahaz, the king of Judah, is a vivid reminder to us of what is at stake if/when we deny Jesus today. God is still calling us to a place of hope and faithfulness, but will we receive it and go to Him?

    In this Gospel Lesson we hear our Savior speak words of warning and encouragement. Jesus said that there is only one way to enter heaven. He said that we should make every effort to: “ENTER THROUGH THE NARROW DOOR”

    “How do you get into heaven?” A Sunday school teacher asked that question of her 2nd grade class. It seemed like a simple question for a group of little Lutherans. But no hands went up. Silence. Crickets. The teacher was confident that the students knew the answer, so she waited patiently. ...read more

     | 2,547 views

    When we step out by faith in God, led by the Spirit of God, grounded in the Word of God, we see visible answers to our faith. These answers act as verification for our faith in the unseen spiritual realities and encourage its growth.

    HEBREWS 11:28-31 SOME VISIBLE RESULTS OF FAITH [Colossians 1:19; 2:9-10] We have been learning how to leave a legacy through faith lessons from God’s heroes. These men and women became more than they could have imagined because their faith attached them to God. God therefore built His enabling ...read more
