    based on 87 ratings
     | 6,760 views

    God isn’t as impressed with our pious religiosity as he is about the way we live our lives.

    Now the Israelites had a problem. They practiced their religion faithfully, and they did everything that was expected, but God didn’t seem to be listening to them. What was the problem? This is a good question. And it’s an important question to ask ourselves as well. God, through his prophet, ...read more

    The resurrection of Jesus is hard to believe, but it is true. And being true, it makes a real difference in our lives.

    A. One day an associate minister was teaching a class of second-graders about the resurrection when one student asked, “What was the first thing that Jesus said right after He came out of the grave?” 1. Well, this was a question of great theological importance, and the associate ...read more

  • The Hard Work Of Trust

     | 3,017 views

    God teaches us to trust in him and in his Son our Saviour. God tells us that anxious care and bitter sighing won’t help. Discontentment will get us nowhere, but only humble trust and steadfast faith.

    Have you ever felt like complaining against the LORD? Maybe you’ve prayed and prayed, but the answer that you wanted hasn’t come. Or you don’t like what God has brought into your life: lots of disappointment, lots of frustration. Or maybe you look at all the wickedness in the world, and you fear ...read more

    Revival only comes when someone is ready, a person, a church a community.

    O Lord It’s Hard to be Humble 2 Chronicles 7:14-7:14 We are picking up with last Sunday’s topic and talking about revival this morning. As we said last week, Revival does not come by design. God can not be manipulated to send revival. A revival is not about saving souls or converting ...read more

     | 4,309 views

    Gleaned from several sermons on sermoncentral, we see change as necessary but we are slow to do so.

    Outline to Learning to Change Acts 10:1-48 It has been said that only wet babies like to be changed, even then they are not that excited about it. Illustration: Henry Ford and William Knudsen Conclusion: Even though he was considered a genius, he did not like change. Sometimes change is ...read more

    Have you ever found yourself battered and beaten by life? Well God is a rock in a hard place.

    In a world adrift in moral chaos and drowning in the depths of deception, I am thankful that we have a rock in a hard place. There is no solid ground in this world. There is no place to safely establish your feet where they will not slip. But there is only unstable and unsure ground. Things are ...read more

    based on 14 ratings
     | 10,442 views

    Often, people say, “If God would only speak audibly telling me what He wants me to do life would be so much easier.” God wants us to do His will, nothing more, nothing less, and nothing else. But realize that knowing and doing God’s isn’t that hard.

    It’s Not Hard Deuteronomy 30:11-20 Introduction: As the golfer approached the first tee, a hazardous hole with a green surrounded by water, he debated if he should use his new golf ball. Deciding that the hole was too treacherous, he pulled out an old ball and placed it on the tee. Just then he ...read more

     | 2,840 views

    Our decision to share our faith can be built on shifting sands, or solid rock.

    I’ve met folks who think that if Jesus walked among us today like he did back in Galilee, we’d be so much better off in our Christianity. How could we ignore him, they ask, if he was right here in front of us? Judging from the people who were right in front of him a couple thousand years ago, it ...read more

     | 4,379 views

    You may have heard of people coming through the school of hard Knocks, but as I look through the word of God, I find some “NOT’s” that are hard for some people to swallow.

    THE SCHOOL OF HARD "NOTS" TITUS 3:3-8 For we ourselves also were sometimes foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, Not by works of ...read more

    There is a group of new Pastors who are keeping in touch with one another this year via e-mail. We check-in and see how things are going.
