Jacob had lived with and served uncle Laban for twenty years. He soon found out that it was time for him to leave and go back to his home country.
Introduction: Jacob had now lived with and worked for his uncle Laban for 14 years. He had received his rewards, Leah and Rachel plus a servant girl for each and was now the father of at least 12 children (details for these children are found in Genesis 29:31-30:24). He was ready to leave but Laban ...read more

The story of Zacchaeus' meeting the Lord is one that we all love to hear.
It has many intriguing things about it. For example, when Jesus was going through Jericho and He met Zacchaeus there, what kind of man did He meet? 1. Zacchaeus was wealthy. We read in verse 2, "And behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he ...read more
Scripture: Luke 19:1-10
A concept in soul winning that you hear very little about that enables Christians to be successful soul winners involves their becoming like the Master Soul Winner - Jesus Christ!
Everything about His marvelous life teaches us about soul winning. Illus: For example, when Jesus wanted to let the world know that He loved them, He did not yell from Heaven, "I love all of you! Come to Me, and I will save you" Now He could have done that, but He didn't. Notice ...read more
Scripture: John 1:14-18
God is a God of variety. This is very easy to prove.
All we have to do is look at His creation to see this is true. However, this is not always true among mankind. Often men try as hard as they can to make things similar.. Illus: Many people visit fast food restaurants from time to time. Have you ever noticed that no matter where you go across ...read more
Scripture: Matthew 19:16-22
Every parent knows the frustrations of working with children that cannot seem to recognize the need for some obvious guidance.
For example, it seems sensible enough to us adults that we should sit down with a child and explain to that child that if he associates with bad company he is going to get into trouble, and that child should avoid bad company like the plague. But, it does not always work that way. You can tell ...read more
Scripture: Acts 1:8
Someone said, "Most men blame all accidents on fate - but feels personal responsibility when he makes a hole-in-one on the golf course."
It is absolutely amazing how and when we use that word, "responsibility." Illus: That word used to be used when a child was attending school. On one side of the report card all the grades for the subjects, such as math, English, science and social studies were listed so you could tell ...read more
Scripture: Matthew 28:18-20, Proverbs 11:30
As I stated earlier, when a preacher preaches on the resurrection of Christ he is preaching on the most important topic of the Bible.
That statement was the truth when I said it and it is the truth now! I vehemently want to state again, it is not one of the most important, but THE MOST IMPORTANT topic of the Bible. As we focus in on this most important topic again today, with all the Easter traditions we have in this country ...read more
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:1-19, Acts 1:3
The resurrection of Christ is the most important topic of the Bible. It is not one of the most important, but THE MOST IMPORTANT topic of the Bible.
The bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead is the crowning proof of Christianity. Everything else that was said or done by Christ and the Apostles is secondary in importance to the resurrection. That is: • If the resurrection DID NOT take place, then Christianity is a false religion. • ...read more
He is Risen, but we ask, “What now?” What does it mean for us and how does it impact our lives today? Is it just to be an awesome historical event and left there? The answer is no.
HE IS RISEN! (He is Risen indeed!) That is the shouted declaration of triumph and its reaffirming response. The fact that Christ is risen is the pinnacle of our Christian faith. Christianity stands or falls on the resurrection. The Apostle Paul stated; “For what I received I passed on to you ...read more
Scripture: John 20:19-23
There are not that many people who are resurrected in the pages of the Bible. You can trace down every one of them in an afternoon’s sitting. It’s nearly exclusively the women who have this privilege.
Elisha shows us how to remain faithful during challenging times. Several years ago, the people at Motel 6 had this catchy tagline on their commercials: “We’ll leave the light on for you.” Tom Bodett was building houses in Homer, Alaska, and was contributing to National Public Radio’s All Things ...read more

The deaf hear, and the dumb speak. Mark 7:37.
HE HAS DONE ALL THINGS WELL. Mark 7:31-37. Jesus was heading towards the Sea of Galilee (Mark 7:31). The next people He met were the friends of a deaf man who had such an impediment in his speech that it sounded like his tongue was tied up in knots. They brought him to Jesus, begging that ...read more

Friday of the Seventeenth Week in Course 2024 What Gospel do we sin-weakened, morally compromised people want to hear? It’s the Gospel of self-advancement, pleasure, total control over our lives and destiny, and unending wealth. It’s a Gospel unconcerned with other people, maybe the Gospel of Adam ...read more

A sermon from Hosea 2:14-23. God had led Israel into a wilderness to get her attention. American may very well be heading for a wilderness. But the God who created the garden also created the wilderness. He's there. Waiting.
Has there ever been a time in your life where determination has taken over? Where you tried to do something on your own that it didn’t matter who you hurt?
