    Sometimes it looks like hell is in charge. Four Reasons Hell ISN'T in charge. Four things to do to take back charge if your life has spiraled out of control.

The man went into a store and asked the clerk, “Can you recommend some perfume as a gift for my wife?” 2. The clerk showed him a ...read more

    This sermon covers the part of the story of Esther where she learns about the edict and is challenged by Mordecai to do something about it. For application we explore the difference one person can make.

    Introduction: A. I want to begin with a fictitious and humorous obituary – sounds like an oxymoron, right? 1. Our church was saddened to learn this week of the death of one of our most valued members, their name is “Someone Else.” 2. Someone Else's passing creates a vacancy that ...read more

    Many wonder why should I fast? Not all those who fast manifest the love of Christ neither do they behave like Christians; in that case, why should I fast?

    Esther 4:1”When Mordecai perceived all that was done, Mordecai rent his clothes, and put on sackcloth with ashes, and went out into the midst of the city, and cried with a loud and a bitter cry..” Many wonder why should I fast?

    I cover the part of the story where Esther approaches the king and asks for the king and Haman to join her for a banquet. I talk about waiting on the Lord before taking important stands.

    Introduction: A. The story is told of a man who went to church one Sunday and was very tired from his late night activities the night before. 1. Finding the sermon to be long and boring, the sleepy man finally nodded off to sleep. 2. The preacher, who had been noticing the man nodding off, ...read more

    Wrong things to do when I’m angry, depressed, frustrated: 1) INVEST in pride; 2) BORROW bitterness; 3) TRADE relationships.

    Have you ever felt like the world around you was moving at such an incredible speed while you were standing still? I mean, have you ever wondered if maybe you weren’t going anywhere in life, at least not everywhere you want to go? Have you ever asked yourself, “Is God even at work in my life? ...read more

    The King had not "thanked" Mordecai. There are four important reasons to say "Thank You" within this text. Good "Thanksgiving Message." Enjoy:

    Title: "The Importance of Thanks Giving" Text: (Est 6:1-3) On that night could not the king sleep, and he commanded to bring the book of records of the chronicles; and they were read before the king.
