    I would like to thank Pastor Jerry Shirley for sharing this series on Acts. It has been a blessing as well as a great help. I have used these for our church, as I spend my days caring for my dying father.

    Go, Stand, and Speak, pt. 2 Acts 5:17-33 Last week we looked at the “Go” in our outline and saw that it deals with the consistency or the reliability of our witness. Are you the same out there as you are in here? This is a command BUT you and I should not look at it as a burden or ...read more

    APROVAL OF HUMAN BEINGS OR GOD Galatians 1 I once attended a worship event and before the speaker took the stage a choral group was singing.

    America is in trouble and we who are in Christ need to do something about it.

    PLEASE HELP AMERICA INTRO.- I am concerned about our country. I don’t believe America is as good as she once was. She is not as good politically, socially, morally, patriotically, and spiritually. And perhaps every generation feels the same. 1- POLITICALLY. America is politically divided. It’s ...read more

    Galatians is all about grace and is the antidote to legalism. For Paul, it was about Christ crucified and his becoming a slave to Christ and not the Law.

    Every day, you and I are making choices that affect our future in this life and affect our future in the life to come. This message examines statements in Gal. 5:13-15 to illuminate Rom. 8:5

    Romans 8:5 3/8/15 We have been in a study of salvation for the past few weeks that has led us to our text this morning in Romans 8:5.

    When God tells you to go and work in His vineyard, He is telling you less of self more of God’s needs. He is telling you get out of your comfort zone, go and reach out to others, go and minister to others.

    In Matthew 21:28-31, Jesus told an interesting parable on Christian service and the kind of attitude to service that pleases Him. A father approached two of his sons and told each son to go and work today in the vineyard. In other words, go and occupy for me in my vineyard. Same assignment, same ...read more

    Fathers are crucial to the next generation. Not passing on the faith, not just mere beliefs, by living out the truths of God's Word, will turn us into a godless society within a generation. Look around at our country, we are almost there.

    The first place to share your faith is where you live. Remember we must back up our words with our life. Our goal in life is to live a life that reflects Jesus Christ. Fathers are to lead the way as the spiritual leader in the family. The question for fathers this morning is; What are you passing ...read more

    The story of salvation is really a simply one, and yet many people refuse to accept it. Is this because it is free, would they feel better if it were earned?

    Tim Keller recently tweeted that “Apathy is a bigger problem than atheism for Christianity.” This sermon challenges God's people to fulfill the Great Commission given by the Risen King, Jesus. I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.

    INTRODUCTION (SECURE ATTENTION) & BACKGROUND OF THE PASSAGE: PRAY before starting the sermon.
