    God, through His servant Solomon tells us in Proverbs 4:23, "Above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.." Why is this important advice? How can we successfully do it?

    It was Bob Dylan who said, everybody worships something and he was right. Many times, that has led to the drive for more. The more we have, the more we want, and when that doesn’t bring happiness we want all the more.

It teaches the lesson that the one with the most toys wins. The Game of Life portrays ...read more

    There are many excuses for rejecting what God has to offer, and God sees through them all. If we’re full of the world we’ll have no appetite for Heaven.

    Today’s parable starts out as table-talk. At a dinner, Jesus mentions “the resurrection of the righteous”, an encouraging truth. Someone at the table gets so excited, he declares a Beatitude: “Blessed is everyone who will eat at the banquet in the Kingdom of God!” ...read more

However, since we finished the book last week, I guess it was a good time to finish the series. This morning our text will be a very familiar piece of scripture for ...read more

    This message looks at the account of a very short man named Zacchaeus. Though he was small in stature, he was by no means small in nature, for he demonstrated a character that many of us need to have in our own lives.

    This morning we are going to look at the story of a very short man named Zacchaeus. Most of us have probably at least heard of Zacchaeus before because of a popular childhood song that we learned in church, either in Sunday school or Vacation Bible School. The lyrics of the song start something ...read more
