    Sixth sermon in the summer 2006 Series, “Being God’s People by Serving, Obeying, and Giving.”

    26 years ago this past spring, I had a couple of employment choices presented to me as a college senior. One was a two-year stint as a missionary in the Philippines. The other was an offer to relocate to Dover, New Jersey, find a job and help serve a local church at the same time. I took the New ...read more

    True worship is all about God, not about us. An examination of proper motives for giving and praying.

    There’s a “Why” in the Road Matthew 6:1-6 "Be careful not to do your ’acts of righteousness’ before men, to be seen by them. If you do, you will have no reward from your Father in heaven. 2 "So when you give to the needy, do not announce it with trumpets, as the hypocrites do in the synagogues ...read more

    A lot of Christian don’t like giving. Just like me, I do give to people if I have and I give my offering in church but I find it difficult paying my tithe

    I have realised that the principle of giving is a powerful spiritual law that is guaranteed!  Giving encompasses the following: 1. Giving tithes and offering 2. Giving to the needy 3. Giving to genuine pastors and ministers  4. Giving to widows and the elderly 5. Give to whoever God is leading ...read more

    People are often motivated primarily by fear or greed. But love is the best motivator.

    What motivates you? Cynical approach used in sales: Fear and greed. If we believe that we’re completely on our own in the world, then these two impulses serve as effective motivators. As followers of Christ know that there is a more powerful motivator: Love. At the same time, we can lose sight of ...read more

    “To prepare the way of the Lord,” what does that mean? Is John calling the people to do some road work? Is John saying that we need to go out and get hired on with road crew?

    Introduction In Matthew 3:3, the great prophet Isaiah says John the Baptist will call the people to prepare the way of the Lord, to make His path straight. “To prepare the way of the Lord,” what does that mean? Is John calling the people to do some road work? Is John saying that we need to go out ...read more

    Getting Life Right: Righteousness Has Its Rewards Series

    Contributed by Vic Folkert on May 18, 2020
     | 3,702 views

    The rewards of serving God are a righteous life with him. God rewards prayer, giving, and seeking him (fasting). Seeking rewards without seeking God misses God's best.

    Getting Life Right: RIGHTEOUSNESS HAS ITS REWARDS—Matthew 6:1-8, 16-18 ***In a commercial for a credit card, a young man and woman are sitting at a table in a restaurant. The man is handing his credit card to the server, who looks soberly at the young lady, saying, “You know, he’s using you. He ...read more

    Why is it that Christians often need to be motivated to give when God has given us so much? God had provided for the Corinthians in such a wonderful way and yet they were hesitant to share what they had with others.

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: W. A. Criswell tells of an ambitious young man who told his pastor he’d promised God a tithe of his income. They prayed for God to bless his career. At that time he was making $40.00 per week and tithing $4.00. In a few years his income increased and he was tithing ...read more

    We owe our nation our support, but we owe God our wholehearted devotion.

    As you all know, our nation is at war. We’ve been expecting it to come for several weeks, but this week it finally came. And whenever war comes, it comes as a tragedy for all involved. And the dilemma for me as a pastor is what to preach about today. I’m sure many pastors will be interrupting ...read more

    God has given us Himself in Christ. As Christians, we are called to offer ourselves. We are to be a gift to God and a gift for others.

    We are catching into this spirit of giving at Christmas - the world says it’s the season of giving. • And it means of buying too, because without buying there won’t be any giving. • You see that all around you. When I opened my mailbox a few days ago after my trip, it was jam-packed with mails. ...read more

    Ash Wednesday (B). Too often we focus on our outward behavior, our sins. But the root of our problem is not sins, but sin, our sinful nature. Joel urges us to "Turn to God and live."

    J. J. May the words of my mouth, and the meditations of our hearts, be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord, our Rock and our Redeemer. Amen. “Give up giving up” What are you giving up for Lent? Anything? Some people give up something for lent. Not with the purpose of earning ...read more

    Maybe it is time to go past the tithe and the concept of grace giving to giving till it hurts.

    Luke 21:1-6 Proposition: You must give to it hurts! From time to time there arises a debate over giving a tithe or give as grace encourages you to give. I believe the tithe is the minimum so if by grace you can and want to give ninety percent like R. G. LeTourneau go right ahead, ...read more

    Do we insist that Jesus meet certain demands of ours before we follow Him, or is it enough that He is the Son of God and worthy of our allegiance?

    Not A Fan : is Jesus Enough? Part 6 February 11th Psalm 27:4-14 John 6:60-69 Some of the ideas in this sermon came from Kyle Idleman’s series Fan or Follower which we did at our church.

     | 131 views

    The sermon emphasizes the vital role of gathering as a church community to encourage, support, and strengthen one another in love and faith as we follow Christ.

    There’s a sacred sweetness in the sound of gathered voices. A familiar face across the aisle. A hug that lingers just a moment longer than usual. Coffee cups, creaky pews, and kind words. It all whispers a truth our souls know well: we are meant to be together. Life presses in with long weeks and ...read more
