What's God really like? God is not political, he’s not Republican or Democrat, He is not stoic or uncaring, He’s not boring or lame, He’s not checked out or disengaged, and He’s not homophobic.

If God Is For Us...

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Mar 23, 2020

It's nice to know when someone's got your back. It's comforting to know that someone is by your side. In Romans 8, Paul talks about God this way. In today's passage, we'll see what it means to know that God is for us. If God is for us then what?

IF GOD IS FOR US... Rom. 8:28-39 It's nice to know when someone's got your back. It's comforting to know that someone will be by your side. And it helps to know that someone is there for us. In Romans 8, Paul talks about God this way. In today's passage, we'll see what it means ...read more

Agree With God

Contributed by Marilyn Murphree on Oct 7, 2018

We often say things that overrule what God has said and then we wonder why our prayers are not answered. He tells us he is the Lord that healeth us and we disagree because we still have pain in our body and do not feel healed.

Agree with God Job 22:21-25 ESV “Agree with God, and be at peace, thereby good will come to you. Receive instruction from his mouth, and lay up his words in your heart. If you return to the Almighty, you will be built up” (English Standard Version). We often say things that overrule what God has ...read more

God Is Faithful

Contributed by Alvan Lewis on Oct 8, 2018

What is the main lesson we learn from the Book of Esther?

I want to begin my sermon this morning with complete honesty – yours, not mine.

The Rejected God

Contributed by Hans Krause on Oct 22, 2018

We can call ourselves Christians, go to church, give our tithes, etc. and yet have rejected God effectively. The picture Jeremiah gives of life in Judah comes close to life in the Christian West, with several gods competing for our loyalty.

[Sermon preached on 4 March 2018, 3rd Sunday in Lent / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] It is so endearing at times to see little children in a big supermarket or shopping mall. They come in with mom or dad, but as soon as they see something interesting—toys, candies, pets, or anything else that ...read more

Be Imitators Of God

Contributed by John Gaston on Nov 1, 2018

Paul asks us to do the seemingly impossible: to mimic Jesus! Luckily we are given four substantial aids to accomplish this feat. All Christians need to hear this message!

BE IMITATORS OF GOD Eph. 5:1-2 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A man in a limousine saw a family on the side of the road eating grass. He told his chauffer to turn around and pull over next to them. 2.

The God Of Sex Series

Contributed by David Owens on Nov 5, 2018

In this sermon, we discuss the fact that sex is good, but when sex is used outside of God's intended ways, the god of sex twists it into something destructive.

A. As you know, children often do “say the darndest things.” 1. A precocious 7 year-old once asked her mother for a baby brother. a.

"God Is Good” Series

Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Nov 12, 2018

We should thank God that He is genuinely and wisely good to us as His children.

God is good, all the time! We readily affirm this to be true whenever good things happen to us, but what about when our circumstances aren’t so good? Is God still good? The answer is “yes.” The significance of God’s goodness is that He is always good, even when what’s happening to me or those I ...read more

Walking In God's Will Series

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Nov 18, 2018

We see the unfolding of God's will and the outworking of God's works in fulfilling His will. God raised Ezra, the man of God's Law, to bring about the next phrase of restoration - spiritual reformation and renewal.

Finally, we have Ezra appearing in the book that bears his name. Chapter 7. • We ended chapter 6 with the completion and the dedication of the Temple of God, led by Zerubbabel and Jeshua, under the reign of Darius. • This was made possible because of the move of God (1) through the preaching ...read more
