    A warning about the consequences of taking God’s blessings for granted

    Amos 8:8-14 Nostalgia is not what it used to be; I really miss good old-fashioned nostalgia. Is anyone else here nostalgic? Who misses ‘the good old days’?

    We ought to feel comfortable praying for ourselves in a bold manner.

    Introduction I would dare say that most Christians feel more comfortable praying for someone else than praying for themselves. Christians prefer intercessory prayer rather than personal prayer. Take for example in our church, if you raise your hand to give a personal prayer request, I have never ...read more

    Today we’re looking at 3 people who were close to going to Heaven, but missed it.: Demas, Lot's Wife, and Cain. They all had been very close to spiritual experiences with God, but didn't end up on God's side.

    A lesson in true repentance.

    PETER’S DENIAL. Matthew 26:31-75. In the Bible, the weakness of God’s servants is held aloft as an example for all to see.

    Obadiah’s "Day of the Lord" prophecy illustrates that true security is found in Jesus alone.

    I hope that all of you enjoyed the last three weeks as much as I did. The prophetic implications of the three fall Jewish Feasts really fit in well with our study of the Old Testament prophets as we prepare for our study of the Book of Revelation. This morning we’ll return to our journey through ...read more
