God created man in His image and for fellowship as we see in the book of Genesis 2 through 4 until the enemy came in and destroyed that beautiful fellowship God had with our first ...read more

    This is a sermon written for a Memorial service for a local hospice, to which are invited relatives of those who have died in the last couple of months

    A little over halfway through the Old Testament part of the Bible, is a relatively short and probably little read book called Ecclesiastes.

    A funeral sermon for locally favorite guitarist (Idea came from Gene Packwood at: http://kiwirev.blogspot.com/2011/06/untitled.html)

    Because of all of Mike’s music making—much of it on the guitar—and to honor his memory, I thought it would be good for us to think about guitars, guitar playing and life. Guitars improve with age. The older they get the better they sound. Richer, fuller, sweeter. Lives well ...read more

    Funeral message for Launer Jones: Help comes from hope, not fear. Life comes from trust, not anxiety. A concerned family who did all they could turned to Jesus, and He will not disappoint.

    It might have been a cold, gray morning, that day when Jairus did what a desperate father had to do. A cold, gray morning, made all the more bleak because a little girl lay dying. Only twelve years old she was, full of promise, full of life, the apple of her father’s eye, and so much in love with ...read more
