    God makes promises that are too hard to keep. But God keeps them.

    Genesis 18:1-15 “IS ANYTHING TOO HARD FOR THE LORD?” Have you ever heard someone make a promise that seemed unrealistic? Maybe you even laughed to yourself when you heard it.

    God is at Your Door. Be prepared to serve him. Be prepared to listen to him.

    Ding-dong! “Is anybody home?” What do you do when someone is at your door? It depends on who it is doesn’t it? If it’s a friend you will make your way quickly to the door to let him/her in. If it’s a stranger you probably won’t be so accommodating, at least not until you find out what that stranger ...read more

    (1) In prayer, we are engaging an active God who respond. (2) In prayer, do not limit the way God respond to you; and (3) in prayer, God converse with you as His friend.

    [I’ve take most thoughts in this sermon from John White’s book People in Prayer.] Last week we look at one of God’s promise when a person prays: • Heb 11:6 “...anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.” • God gives us a promise, that if ...read more

    Using Abraham as an example of demonstrating love to newcomers to the church in practical ways. This sermon prepared us for our Friendship Sunday the following week.

    What would you do if God came to dinner? Abraham gives his best to the Lord and receives fellowship, promise, and plans for the future in return.

    Two things are accomplished in this chapter - a visit from God Himself for two reasons: blessings and judgment. God is reminding Abraham - and especially Sarah - of the promised son, and to engage Abraham in a discussion about judging sin. It teaches about God’s character and intercession. Verse ...read more

    Abraham’s encounter with three strangers can teach us much about hospitality as a church.

    A mother invited some people to dinner. At the table, she turned to her six-year-old daughter and said, "Would you like to say the blessing?" "I wouldn’t know what to say," the girl replied. "Just say what you hear Mommy say," the mother answered. The little girl bowed her head and with sincerity ...read more
