    Abraham was a normal man with a unique situation. He messed up from time to time but God still used him. An encouragement to a sinful man like me!

    ABRAHAM Hebrews 11:8-9 Genesis 12:1-13 INTRODUCTION 1. Abram, Abraham, is a man not unlike most other men 2. He was married, had a family, and many responsibilities a. Well, he had no kids of his own b. But he was keeping up his nephew Lot who proved to be a handful 3. Why did God call Abram to ...read more

    Our Christian walk is an adventurous journey into the unknown which 1) Begins with God, 2) Requires steadfast faith, 3) Continues through relationship and 4) Requires action.

    INTRODUCTION We have all heard the term “The Christian Walk” used in conversation at different times. It refers to an individual’s personal, spiritual journey. Many times we have false expectations of what the “Christian Walk” should be like. Many times we believe that it should be free from ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,977 views

    In beginning an interim pulpit ministry, God directed my attention to Abram/Abraham as a paradigm of faith. Some will object to the almost typological approach to these texts.

    Famine in the Promised Land Text: Genesis 12:1-20 Today, may or may not be the beginning of a journey together. But whether God allows me to stay with you over a long period of time or whether today is merely a temporary lesson for an eternal purpose, God has placed this message on my heart. Today, ...read more

    Part 1 - Genesis 12:1-20 - Ok, He’s Dead! What Have I Inherited? Series

    based on 30 ratings
     | 6,605 views

    Some criticize him for staying in Haran saying that he fell short of the promises of God, distracted by the attraction of wealth. I don’t think he was saying, OK, HE’S DEAD! WHAT HAVE I INHERITED? But he did stay in Haran until his father died.

    Part 1 - Genesis 12:1-20 (NASB) - OK, HE’S DEAD. WHAT HAVE I INHERITED? I understand the upheaval of moving to a different city. Packing endless boxes of books, dismantling beds and throwing out all the junk we have accumulated over time - big job. Then watching a huge truck back into our ...read more

     | 27,837 views

    I can't imagine packing the removal truck and saying to the driver to pull out without knowing what town you wanted him to go to. "DON'T ASK QUESTIONS! JUST DRIVE!" Sounds like a terrorist trying to hijack a vehicle.

    Part 2 - Genesis 12:1-9 - DON'T ASK QUESTIONS, JUST DRIVE! When God hijacks your life! If you have kids, you know the routine. Five minutes into the trip they are asking "WHERE ARE WE GOING? WHEN DO WE GET THERE? ARE WE THERE YET?" At least Abram didn't have any kids, because he would have had a ...read more

    based on 45 ratings
     | 9,197 views

    In Genesis 12:10 in lean times, "Abram went down to Egypt". There is no mention of Abram calling out to God. He's a business man. He just makes a logical decision, but it is decision that is devoid of the promises God gave him. DISCONNECTION big time!

    PART 3 - GENESIS 12:10 - 20 - THIS SERVICE HAS BEEN DISCONNECTED. PLEASE TRY ANOTHER NUMBER. We were standing in line to go into Church. It was a long line and we had to wait for some time for the doors to be opened. Although the auditorium seated 1,500 people, some people would have to come to ...read more

    A Father's Day sermon that examines Abraham's fatal decision to betray his wife out of fear of Pharaoh, and the consequences of the "faltering faith" of this otherwise great man of faith.

    When the famine hit Canaan, Abram looked to Egypt rather than to God. This sermon examines the problems we encounter when we turn to the world in our troubles rather than to God.

    Do you have a worry box? It’s a mental box that we can place our worries in. This box can only hold so many worries, so as soon as one disappears, we fill it with another. If a bigger worry comes along, we discard the smaller worries to make room for it. These worry don’t vanish. They ...read more

    Are you going to take the effort to listen to God? How has your faith panned out for God? Will you step out even when God tests your faith by making the most difficult sacrifices in your life? Do you obey God at every level?

    Opening Illustration: Narrate the story of our call to the USA as missionaries. Introduction: The Lord's call for Abram to journey to the Promised Land is often equated with a call to missionary service. For the missionary, there is a sense where God has called them from the ease and security of ...read more

    In the face of change, go and be a blessing.

    When I say the word “Viking”, what comes to mind? For me, the word conjures up medieval people of the sea, who terrorized the poor land lubbers on the coasts of Europe and other places. However, the Vikings didn’t see themselves that way. They thought of themselves as farmers and ...read more
