Welcome Home

Contributed by Joanne Chan on Feb 7, 2018

This sermon looks at the parable of the Prodigal Son, and explores the relationship between the father, the younger son, and the older son. The intertwined relationship of this family shows that love and respect should be the key values of our church.

It’s about a family with triplets and their intertwining stories with each other now, when the characters are grown up, but it constantly flashes back to their childhood times. It shows how their loving parents ...read more

Adopted Sons Of God

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 9, 2022

This message looks at the concept of adoption. If we confess Jesus as Savior and Lord, we receive a new father, which is God the Father, and we become heirs of the kingdom. We are then able to call upon God as our Abba or Daddy.

Some of the most well-known words to the believer are the first six words of the Lord’s Prayer: “Our Father, who art in heaven.” Our Father - God is known as our heavenly Father. We pray to God as our Father, speak of Him as our Father, and even sing to Him as our Father. For example, one ...read more

Coming Home On Father's Day

Contributed by David Washburn on Jun 11, 2002

Father’s Day is a day to honor our father, our Heavenly Father. Jesus’ parable about the prodigal son is a pure reflection of a loving father and what it means to come home on Father’s Day.

Dads, today is our day, but Father’s Day has somehow never been held in as high regard as Mother’s Day. Mother’s just have that certain something. After all, whenever you see someone holding a sign or mouthing “hello,” they’re saying, “Hi, Mom,” and usually not, “Hi Dad.” Now, I’m not complaining, ...read more

Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on May 12, 2018

St. Gregory of Nyssa, and other Fathers of the Church, teach that the glory of the Father and the Son is the Holy Spirit, who is love. The glory we are given is the Holy Spirit who enables us to image Christ in our world.

Thursday of the 7th Week of Easter 2018 St. Paschal Baylon The prayer of Jesus we just heard from St. John is part of the High Priestly Prayer Our Lord offered at the Last Supper.

The Elder Son Syndrome

Contributed by Keith Linkous on Jun 22, 2002

Luke 15 talks about a father and his two sons. One is a prodigal, and the other is pious. This message looks at some of the attributes of the elder son. Prayerfully, you have not succumbed to the elder son SIN-drome.

One of the great dangers for anyone who has been saved by the grace of God is that they become so familiar with being saved, that they do not rightfully keep God in the place of exaltedness in their life that He occupied at the first. Neither do they serve God in the way that they should. ...read more

Home Sweet Home

Contributed by Gregory Mc Donald on Feb 10, 2010

This morning I want to look at the story of a young man who discovered the truth of the familiar quote, "There's no place like home." It's the familiar story of the prodigal son...but maybe from a different angle than you've heard it before.

HOME SWEET HOME LUKE 15:11 24 There is an old song that is still popular that says, "There's no place like home for the holidays..." With Thanksgiving and Christmas just around the corner our thoughts often turn toward home. For me, there are so many great memories of the times my family had ...read more
