     | 2,503 views

    What have you done? How have you responded to God’s kindness? How have you responded to God’s invitation of abundant blessings and riches found in God’s kindness, tolerance and patience?

    Title: What are you going to get? Scripture: Romans 2:4-6 Romans 2:4-6 4 Or do you show contempt for the riches of his kindness, tolerance and patience, not realizing that God’s kindness leads you toward repentance? 5 But because of your stubbornness and your unrepentant heart, you are storing ...read more

    Have you ever really gone hard after something in your life? Was there ever something you wanted in life almost more than life itself?

    Going Hard After God Psalm 63:1-8 Ps 63:1-8… O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is; 2 To see thy power and thy glory, so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary. Because thy lovingkindness ...read more

    Let’s Go To Bethlehem!

    Although Luke’s account of the shepherds going to see baby Jesus is filled with familiar details, the thread that ties the whole thing together is what the shepherds were told about the child. We hear that connection three times in these verses.

    “Let’s go to Bethlehem and see this thing that has happened, which the Lord has told us about.” Those words spoken by the shepherds on the first Christmas Eve are familiar to us. An angel of the Lord had brought them “good news that will cause great joy for all the people.” And the angel told ...read more

    It seems today that everything is being shaken, but that is not always a bad thing. There are some great things coming out of the shaking.

    24And the woman bare a son, and called his name Samson: and the child grew, and the LORD blessed him. 25And the Spirit of the LORD began to move him at times in the camp of Dan between Zorah and Eshtaol. Judg 13:25 (TLB) 25And the Spirit of the Lord began to excite him whenever he visited the ...read more

    Love is the defining characteristic of a follower of Christ. But what does biblical love truly look like? How do we love in a way that reflects Christ’s love?

    Go! And Love Without Limits Introduction: Love is the defining characteristic of a follower of Christ. Jesus said in John 13:35 (NLT), “Your love for one another will prove to the world that you are my disciples.” But what does biblical love truly look like?

    Sermon preached July 13, 2003 for the 5th Sunday after Pentecost.

    There’s a story that illustrates what we learn through this morning’s gospel reading very well and I struggled with all week to decide how to use it, or even to use it at all, but I decided to use it and tell it in two parts because it seems to really illustrate so well what we’re about to hear ...read more

    Jesus said He would build His church. What we read in Acts 4 is how He intended to do it. What do we read there that helps us understand our part in Christ's construction crew?

    There’s the true story of a southern church that had been stressing the importance of witnessing to people. One particularly slow young man in the congregation took the idea to heart, but he wasn’t quite sure how to do it. Then, that Sunday, a skeptic visited the church one Sunday, and the boy ...read more

    Let Go And Let God

    Before we can “let God,” or allow Him to work in our life, we have to “let go.” We have to stop allowing ourselves to be controlled by the things of this world that hinder our usefulness to Him. Letting go and letting God is called faith.

    Our sermon this evening is entitled “Let Go and Let God.” The title is derived from a popular statement used among Christians today. Before we can “let God,” or allow Him to work in our life, we have to “let go,” or throw off the chains that hinder our usefulness to the Lord. We have to stop ...read more

    Have you ever said, "It's good to be home?" Why? What's so good about home?

    “Soul Talk: I Want to Go Home” Ps. 84 In New York in the spring of 1927, Lillian Alling, a young servant, became very homesick and decided to return to her family in Russia. Because she had saved only $100 and would not accept lifts from strangers she would have to walk the 12,000 ...read more

    God's "Go To" Guidance Series

    We need to learn how to trust in the Lord and not in ourselves. Only then can He show us his will and the path our lives should take.

    Have you ever heard the phrase, “Out of the mouth of babes?” It comes from the truth that sometimes it takes a child to reveal lasting wisdom. For example: · Patrick, age 10, said, “Never trust a dog to watch your food.” · Michael, 14, said, “When your dad is mad and ...read more

    We need to join with the Apostle Paul in our reason for going to church.

    "WHY I GO TO CHURCH" Romans 1:8-13 A little old man was seen every Sunday morning walking to church. He was deaf … so he couldn’t hear a word of the sermon or the music or the instruments or the choir, or the hymns sung by the congregation.
