    She knew her abilities were useless! She laid down everything, all the leftovers of the things she had accomplished in life and only held on to one thing, HER FAITH!

    Give it all to Jesus Isa. 40:31 NKJ But those who wait on the Lord Shall renew their strength; They shall mount up with wings like eagles, They shall run and not be weary, They shall walk and not faint. But teach me Lord, teach me Lord to wait! When I read this verse the way I take it is, that it ...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

     | 27,701 views

    God’s wisdom gives peace but the churches to which James wrote were experiencing chronic hostility & sharp confrontations. They fought, coveted, quarreled & condemned others to obtain their desires. They were dominated by self-will

    JAMES 4: 1-5 THE PASSION OF SELF-GRATIFICATION [Romans 7:14-25] Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy wrote of a man who was dominated by the driving desire for self-gratification. To possess land was his highest pleasure. Someone promised him that he could own all of the land he could walk around ...read more

    God will give us the strength and desire to let go of the things that hinder us from serving Him. If we follow Him, He will bless us spiritually. In order to be first with God, we have to be last in the eyes of the world.

    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. He had a weekly TV comedy show back in the 70s, and one of his favorite characters was a preacher named Brother Leroy. In one skit, ...read more

    Give Your Life Away Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022
     | 2,116 views

    There are at least four core commitments for Christian living: (1) abide in the Word, (2) pray your heart out, (3) be killing sin, and (4) give your life away.

    Our lives tell a story—a story about who we are and what we value, where we’ve come from and where we’re going, what we want and what we’ll do to get it. And what most of us do is, we make “the story” of our lives about us. But God makes “the story” of our lives about Christ. Someone has said, ...read more

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Feb 5, 2015
    based on 8 ratings
     | 15,762 views

    Here is the supreme argument for Christian giving. Grace giving flows out of the self-giving and self-impoverishing of the Son of God on man's behalf.

    2 CORINTHIANS 8: 9-15 [GAINING PERSPECTIVE Series] THE GRACIOUS GIVING OF JESUS CHRIST [Philippians 2: 1-13 / Mark 12:41–44] Paul has been using the Macedonians as an example but they were an example only because they followed Christ Jesus' example.

    It isn’t how much you give to the work of the church that matters. It is how much you keep for yourself that concerns God.

    Mark 12: 38 – 44 / More Than All Intro: In 1975 I assumed my duties as the pastor of Memorial Presbyterian church in South Bend, Indiana. It was a unique ethnic congregation with many customs and traditions. One such “tradition” was the publishing of the annual “Scandal Sheet of Giving.” --- A ...read more

    God's grace isn't a relic from our past, it is our daily manna.

    INTRODUCTION Did you hear about the joke about the Baptist pastor who snuck out to the horse race track? He’d never bet on the horses before, so he wasn’t sure where to put his money. Before one of the races he watched as a Catholic priest pronounced a blessing on a particular horse. ...read more

    Jesus offers rest to His followers--from the troubles of the world, yes, but especially from the burdensome weight (the yoke) of the Law.

    One of the highlights of our trip to Germany—beyond all of the historical Luther sites and exhibits—was the opportunity to visit the city of Osnabruck. There’s nothing of particular importance for Lutherans about Osnabruck. We visited purely for my own sake. My branch of the Meyer family came ...read more

    We are called to lay down our lives for others.

    "Lay It Down" 1 John 3:16-24 Facebook is a funny thing. It's a forum where people often post pictures of their beautiful children and grandchildren, and inspirational quotes to help others through the day. I often use it to promote things that are going on here at East Ridge United Methodist ...read more

    The answer to the violence is exactly to do as Jesus did.

    The Sixth Sunday of Easter 2015 The early Church was not exactly the love-fest that some would like to imagine. First, the Jewish and Roman authorities were, at the least, suspicious of this new Jewish sect where people–especially the poor and marginalized–were being healed and ...read more
