    Are you in His will?

    The Will of God We have made the will of God into something mystical and foggy. Therefore we are always looking for it, guessing about it, worrying that we missed, etc. I believe that we miss the specific will of God in our lives because we are ignorant or disobedient to His general will.

    The Apostle Paul’s message to the men of Athens at the Areopagus gives us a model for sharing Christ with others. We start with their natural knowledge of God and transition to the revealed knowledge of God.

    What is the “natural knowledge” of God? Since our “examination / confirmation Sunday” is just over a month away I hope that one of our confirmands can answer that question. What is the “natural knowledge” of God? The “natural knowledge” of God is what all people know about God from nature and ...read more

    The Lord who brings rain on the earth has provided us with many blessings. Are we experiencing those blessings to the fullest?

    Give thanks to the God of the Waters Psalm 65 I am struck by the similarity between this psalm and number 93. In both, • God arms Himself with strength • The thundering of the waves is referenced • God is shown in His relationship to both land and sea Psalm 93 is in book 4 of the psalms, so it ...read more

    Three reasons we can trust God to be fair in the unfolding of his plan.

    There are certain phrases every parent begins to expect from their kids. Phrases like "why?" or, "But Greg’s parents let him do it." One of those phrases is, "That’s not fair!" We said it as kids, and when we become parents our kids bombard us with that phrase. And of course the standard response ...read more

    God desires for us to work alongside Him to accomplish His glorious work on earth.

    We continue to learn from the Book of 1 Samuel. We noted that the people of Israel did not want to listen to God and they demanded to have a king. God warned them through the prophet Samuel but they insisted to have a king just like the other nations around them. God's Chosen People did not take ...read more

     | 1,049 views

    The God we serve is always awake, always watching, and always working on behalf of His people. This truth should give us confidence in His protection, provision, and faithfulness. As we trust in Him, we can rest in the assurance that He never slumbers nor sleeps.

    Trusting God means both letting go and listening, and it means getting busy and going in the direction He leads

    Trust, But Still Do Your Homework Joshua 2 Intro: There is an old Persian proverb, which says: “Trust in God, but tie your camel.” It acknowledges the tension we often come up against when we talk about trust – what is God’s part and what is our part? When does trust mean that we do nothing ...read more

    Jesus took the challenges and turned them into opportunities to encourage people to believe in God!

    Please open your Bibles to Mark 12…… Take a quick look again at v12…… Eventually, Jesus was crucified on a cross, but sadly, many missed the point of Jesus being a sacrifice for man’s sin as planned by God. I pray that all of you never miss the point of why Jesus died. This is one of the reasons ...read more

    Christmas Eve service, 2003. Herod wanted to be in control and lost the opportunity to know Jesus personally. Do we want to be in control so much that we can’t submit to Christ?

    Herod didn’t know who he was. The King of Judea, the Great Herod, had no clue as to who this little baby boy was. Herod thought this baby was a threat. Matthew’s Gospel says that when Herod heard about the Baby Jesus from the Wise Men, he was greatly distressed. Greatly distressed? That is ...read more
