    Snoopy always follows his dream, what would happen if we did. This message looks at why dreams are important

    Good Ol’ Snoopy My favorite character in the Peanuts world has to be Snoopy and as a kid I couldn’t understand why the strip wasn’t called “Snoopy” instead of “Peanuts”, I assumed that he was the main character and the rest of the cast were just ...read more

    What’s So Amazing About Grace? Series

     | 14,189 views

    This story of Judah and Tamar reminds us that God’s grace comes in spite of our sin - even through our sin. Grace overcomes the mess that we make of our lives and provides us with something that we could never provide for ourselves.

    There are many passages in the Bible that are difficult to preach. Genesis 38 is right up there at the top of the list. It’s not BORING It’s not DEEP THEOLOGY It’s not IRRELEVANT Simply put, it’s TOO RACY! But the story must be told, because it’s an amazing story about GRACE. The story concerns ...read more

    We live in a world where it is hard to find people who care. We live in a world where people are willing give money and even time to help people we don’t know. But at the same time, we often ignore people we do know who are in a spiritual pits.

    I spent this week with Joseph on his journey and in the pit. I wanted to feel and think what Joseph felt and thought. Listen to Joseph’s thinking, as he approached his brothers. It has been a long walk from Hebron to Shechem to Dothan. My father wanted me to visit my brothers to check up on ...read more

    Perfect… You’re Not Perfect… ~ God

    God doesn't perfect us... then bring us into the church and into church leadership. He perfects us through change, challenge and allows His will to be done through imperfect people.

    Have you ever felt like life never goes the way you plan it? In my life, I had plans to do different things. When I was young, before even being a teen I wanted to be a professional football player. I used to play backyard football with all my friends and with my favorite cousin, Tim. We would win ...read more

    Paths That Lead To Pits Series

    Contributed by Greg Powell on Mar 5, 2013
     | 7,112 views

    Usually, we are in pits of our own making. We find ourselves in a hole that we have fashioned for ourselves. What are the paths that lead to pits?

    INTRO: At the end of this chapter, Joseph is going to find himself in a pit. A literal, dark and lonely pit. At the same time, the brothers are going to find themselves in a pit as well. But theirs will be a pit of their own making – a spiritual pit, one that is brought on by their own ...read more

    A Pit,a Prison,a Palace Series

     | 7,201 views

    Many people are viewing the palace of life, forgetting the route. Anyone who wants to be great may see part of Joseph's experience. But at the end, the word of God must surely come to pass.

    We see the journey of life by the experience of a young man, Joseph. He was a dreamer who re- write his family history and the whole covenant nation of Israel. Many people are viewing the palace of life, forgetting the route. Anyone who wants to be great may see part of Joseph's experience. But at ...read more

    The Choices That We Make

     | 13,203 views

    Life is full of choices. Our choices will affect our future destiny. We must learn to make the right choices with regards to the people we associate and with our duties before God and family.

    THE CHOICES WE MAKE We are now in Genesis 38. This is the story of Judah and Tamar. Not too many preachers talk about this chapter because this is like a parenthesis from the story of Joseph. One whole chapter devoted about the life and sin of Judah while Joseph was sold to Potiphar in Egypt. In ...read more

    The Testimony Of Judah

    Judah finds both repentance, and amendment of life.

    THE TESTIMONY OF JUDAH. Genesis 44:18-34. I have often wondered why the account of Joseph’s plight in Egypt is interrupted by a chapter about his half-brother Judah (Genesis 38). However, this part of the narrative (Genesis 37-50) is headed ‘the generations of Jacob’ (Genesis 37:2). The whole of ...read more

    In the wrinkles of this tragedy, God is present and working. He’s working to bring about His good and see His plans realized. It may not be a pretty picture at this point. But that just goes to show how broken our world is - and how persistent God is.

    God in the Ebb & Flow of Life: Betrayal and Burlap Scripture Text: Genesis 37.18-35 INTRODUCTION Last-week, I tried to lay the ground-work so that we would have a realistic picture of Joseph’s family-life. It isn’t pretty!... ...read more

    The greatest prophecy of your life is hidden in your praise

    Joseph was basically born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he was the son of his father's old age he was the apple of his father's eye.

    The story of how Joseph was used by God in spite of being in a dysfunctional family.

    Family Feud Genesis 37: 1-4 and 12-28 I love a good Bible story, and when looking at the three scripture readings for today I could not resist going with the Old Testament story of Joseph. Perhaps most of you had the story of Joseph and The Coat of Many Colors read to you by your ...read more

    Gen 37:3-24 41:41-44 anyone reading the story of Joseph has to come to the same conclusion. 1. Joseph was anointed 2. Joseph was favored by God, 3.

    This sermon will consider how God uses vision to motivate and mobilise people into service for him.

    Why Me? Have you ever wondered why some people receive visions, or a call concerning what God wants them to do in life, while others may not. We do not know why God gives some people visions and not others. However, one reason why God might put a vision on someone’s heart may be to mobilise and to ...read more
