Using Your Gifts

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 12, 2022

Even though they are aware of their abilities, some people believe they are entitled to make use of them however they see fit. When we use our abilities, how does it glorify God?

Peter writes that everyone has some abilities. He also states that we are to use what God gave us to reach the world, not for our pleasure but for serving and edifying God.

A Self-Centered Hothead Meets God’s Providence Series

Contributed by Ed Vasicek on May 17, 2021

Today’s sermon is about a childless couple unexpectedly blessed with a grape-less son who ends up being a womanizing hothead hippie, marries the enemy, has a hobby of setting fox’ tails on fire, gets put in prison just because he gets a haircut, and dies of fallen arches. This is how it happened.
