    Head-On Collision Series

    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Oct 26, 2009
     | 4,543 views

    Immediately after Abram gets "back to basics," a controversy develops. Did you know that "blessing" can lead to dissension? Did you know that walking in faith almost inevitably leads to opposition?

    The Head-On Collision Text: Genesis 13:1-18 When a corporation has some bad financial reverses, you are likely to read a press release that says something about getting back to the company’s core business. When a sports team gets outplayed, the coach’s press conference will usually have a statement ...read more

    The problem of acceptance cross-generationally in a church

    1So Abram went up from Egypt, he and his wife, and all that he had, and Lot with him, into the Negeb. 2Now Abram was very rich in livestock, in silver, and in gold. 3He journeyed on by stages from the Negeb as far as Bethel, to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and ...read more

    Lot makes the wrong choice and sells out his inheritance for the promised riches of this world

    The Life of Abraham, Part 3: Lot is not the Heir. Genesis 13:1-18 Introduction In the last lesson, we left Abram heading back to the desert, having been expelled from Egypt with all he possessed. And we can see from the beginning of the text today that Abram managed to spoil the Egyptians in much ...read more

    The Slow Slide Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,013 views

    Many people struggle with the same temptation for many years. Often, people will wonder, “How is it possible for a Christian to struggle with a temptation for so long? How did things get so bad?” I’ll tell you how: so slowly that you wouldn’t even notice what was taking place.

    The Slow Slide Text: Genesis 13:2-13 Introduction: Ever seen a Chinese handcuff? Maybe you know it better by the name “Chinese Finger Trap” or “that joke your friend played on you that one time after asking, ‘Wanna see something cool?’” The genius of this gag toy is its simplicity; it’s just a ...read more

    The Choice We Make Series

     | 21,264 views

    We make choices that often affects us our entire lives; whether good or bad.

    Introduction. The strongest principle of life and blessings lies in our choice. Our life is the sum result of all the choices we make, both consciously and unconsciously. If we can control the process of choosing, we can take control of all aspects of our life. We can find the freedom that comes ...read more

    Abraham: A Journey Of Faith - Setting A Peacemaker Pace Series

    God's promises make it so that we don't have to cut others off to get ahead. We already have heaven so we can afford to be generous to others.

    We’ve all seen those drivers—the ones that keep changing lanes because they believe this will catapult them ahead of traffic so they arrive at their destination a whole two minutes faster! These lane weavers put others at risk because of their self-centered drive to get ahead. Not ...read more

    Sermon # 8 - Rebuild The Altars Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Apr 19, 2024
     | 1,582 views

    There were four altars that Abraham built at various times in his life, and each of them had a special significance. As we understand what these altars represented, may we too take time to rebuild those areas where we are still lacking.

    We read in Genesis 21:22, At that time Abimelech went with Phicol, the commander of his army, and said to Abraham, "God is with you in everything you do. (GNB) Here we find that Abimelech a king from a foreign nation came to meet with Abraham. In general when a king wants to meet someone, he ...read more

    Choosing God’s Choice

     | 1,949 views

    Is there any guide that would help us to choose what is right in God’s eyes? And if we have an idea of God’s choices, should we not consider them the best option for us to have? What are some choices then that are in line with the Sovereign Will of God?

    Casual Christians Will Become Casualties

    Barna research contrasted captive & casual believers, which we can see in Abraham & Lot. We'll see how their faith, or lack of it, guided their choices, and see the outcome of their choices.

    CASUAL CHRISTIANS WILL BECOME CASUALTIES Gen. 13:1-18 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: BAD-MOUTHING TO THE WRONG PERSON. An elderly woman came into church. An usher asked her where she’d like to sit.

    The Marks Of A Spiritual Person Series

    Abram settled his tents in the place that God had called him. From beginning to the end of this story, though he failed many times, he always built and alter to the Lord.

    As we spoke about Genesis 12 last week, we saw that there was a famine in the land and Abram took a natural, commonsensical path and made his way down to Egypt. While in Egypt, we didn’t see Abram erect monuments to or call upon his God - instead he took what he felt was the smartest, most ...read more

    Genesis Chapter Thirteen Series

    These are thoughts on Genesis Chapter Thirteen. In his work, "What does every Bible chapter say..." John Hunt gives an overview of each chapter of the Bible. It is my intention to do the same thing here.

    GENESIS CHAPTER THIRTEEN OVERVIEW Overall what is happening in this chapter is Abraham and Lot leave Egypt and separate from one another. Thomas Coke (1801) – Genesis 13 Abram returns out of Egypt. A contention arising between the shepherds of Abram and Lot, they separate: Lot pitches his tent ...read more

    What Does It Mean To Have Spiritually Blurred Vision?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jan 24, 2023
     | 4,662 views

    What does it mean in having blurred vision? Blurred vision is the deficiency of sharpness of visual perception, causing objects to show up cloudy or out of focus.

    The essential drivers of obscured vision are refractive issues – myopia (nearsightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), astigmatism (imperfection in the curvature of the eye), or presbyopia (gradual loss of seeing close things clearly). Blurred vision can likewise be an indication of a more ...read more

    Sermon # 20 - A Seared Conscience Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jan 27, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 2,447 views

    If we do not listen to the promptings of the Holy Spirit in our lives, we will allow our consciences to grow weak and get seared. The life of Lot and David will help us understand this better.

    In 1 Timothy 4:1-2, we read, “The Spirit says clearly that some people will abandon the faith in later times; they will obey lying spirits and follow the teachings of demons. Such teachings are spread by deceitful liars, whose consciences are dead, as if burnt with a hot iron.” (GNT) Our ...read more

    Sermon # 4 - Chosen To Be Royalty Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 17, 2024
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,574 views

    God has chosen us and called us to be a Royal Priesthood, but often we don’t realize our position in Christ. Abraham’s life will encourage us to realize how God can fulfill His great plans in the lives of those whom God has called and chosen.

    We read in 1 Peter 2:9, However, you are chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, people who belong to God. You were chosen to tell about the excellent qualities of God, who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. (GW) In the verses preceding the above mentioned verse, Peter ...read more
