    How To Give To God

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 27, 2015
     | 9,346 views

    What we give to God and how we give it shows just how much we really love him, and it shows how grateful we are for the love and blessings we receive from him. We are accountable to God for how we use the gifts he has given us.

    Let's take a walk down memory lane for a moment. Some of you, especially the older members of this congregation, may remember a famous comedian named Flip Wilson.

    Giving Obediently Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jan 20, 2023
     | 2,258 views

    Our obedience in giving equates to our love for God. We are to acknowledge God’s ownership of everything. This requires faith because we believe that God will provide our needs. We give a tithe to God and he will supply with the remaining ninety percent.

    This is a very serious look at giving since the opposite of obedience to God is disobedience. There is no neutral ground between obedience to God and disobedience to God. “I the Lord do not change. So you, the descendants of Jacob, are not destroyed. 7 Ever since the time of your ancestors you ...read more

    Thanksgiving is a time when we pause to celebrate and give thanks to God for everything he has given us, and the best way to give thanks to God is to pray.

    Thanksgiving was approaching, and a family had received a Thanksgiving card with a painting of a Pilgrim family on their way to church. Grandma showed the card to her small grandchildren and observed, “The Pilgrim children liked to go to church with their mothers and ...read more

    Sermon # 35 - Prayers That Please God Series

    Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jul 11, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 316 views

    Are our prayers pleasing to God? What are the things that we ask God for when we go to Him in prayer? May our prayers be faith-filled and our petitions in accordance with God’s will so that our prayers are pleasing and acceptable to God.

    Our meditation for today is based on Ephesians 5:10, “Try to learn what pleases the Lord.” (ERV) The above mentioned verse exhorts us to find out what are those things that are pleasing to God, and to lead such kind of lives that God would delight in. It is an unchanging fact that God loves us, ...read more

    We cannot please everyone but we need only to please God, our Creator. In this message, we will learn three desires that Moses had that win the approval of God. Our goal is that we will also gain God's approval for everything we do.

    We please God when we work together as part of His team – the church!

    Three weeks ago, I quoted Rick Warren who said, “You were made for a mission. God is at work in the world and he wants you to join him. This assignment is called your mission…” “Your life mission,” he goes on to say, “is both shared and specific. One part of it is a responsibility you share with ...read more
