    Our rush to commercialize Christmas, even before Thanksgiving, shows that we have become unthankful for what we have, and greedy for more. Christmas has trampled Thanksgiving.

    Trampling Thanksgiving (Run, Turkey, Run) Psalm 100:1-5 I know some of you will find this hard to believe, but I don’t like to be controversial and cause a stink or alienate people. I will. And I have, and I probably will again… today… but I don’t like it… I like to ...read more

    This message intends to show how great and awesome God is in our lives, therefor we should show our gratefulness towards him.

    Psalm 100:1-5 (A Psalm of Praise.) If I could take anything away from this passage of scripture it would be these few things: 1. JOY “Make a joyful noise unto to the Lord, all you lands!” Psalm 100:1 (NKJV) Our lives are meant to be a joyful call to God. God wants us to get excited about who He ...read more

    Praise . . . it is more than goosebumps and music. There is a progression to praise that we must move through.

    Jonah’s disobedience and rebellion stemmed from an ungrateful heart. The Israelites too had to wander in the wilderness because of their constant grumbling and lack of thankfulness. Let’s learn to set aside all grumbling and replace it with a thankful heart.

    We read in Jonah 3:1-3, “Then the LORD spoke his word to Jonah a second time. He said, "Leave at once for the important city, Nineveh. Announce to the people the message I have given you." Jonah immediately went to Nineveh as the LORD told him. Nineveh was a very large city. It took three ...read more
