    James gives us some good reasons why we really should embrace the storms in our lives. Without the storms we would be weak and incomplete.

    Two men were walking through a field one day when they spotted an enraged bull. Instantly they darted toward the nearest fence. The storming bull followed in hot pursuit, and it was soon apparent they wouldn’t make it. Terrified, the one shouted to the other, "Put up a prayer, John. We’re in for ...read more

    This message about the God-ordained marriage relationship between man and woman as the devil is prowling to and fro looking for marriages to devour and relationships to wreck. And the church is not immune. We can learn a few lessons from the Shunamite cou

    Introduction From the title of this message, it is clear that this is an unusual formula. Yes, 1+1 = 1, not 2. Ordinarily, 1+1 equals 2, but there are many things in the word of God which are not ordinary, but extra-ordinary. When God parted the Red Sea for the people of Israel when they were being ...read more

    Don’t just roll over on this one and say w/ the masses, “Just be safe.” Or, “If you can’t be good, then be careful!” There is no sex safer than sex within God’s plan, marriage! Link inc. to formatted text, audio & video, PowerPoint.

    Consenting Adultery Exodus 20:14 http://gbcdecatur.org/sermons/ConsentingAdultery.html The 1631 edition of the KJV had a misprint.

    God renews our hearts so we feel what is true.

    Scripture Introduction If you hang around churches for awhile, you will likely find that our emotions do not always match our profession.

    HOw can parents showe wisdom in the way they raise their children

    We’ve spent 4 weeks reading through Ecclesiastes working out how that sort of wisdom literature fits with the rest of God’s revelation of himself and I hope we discovered that it fits well.

    As beloved children of God we must remember that we are in Christ & in God. It is through His power that we have become what we now are in Christ – through that same power which raised Christ from the dead.

    Intro No less than a few years ago, you would have looked suspiciously at people walking down the street talking to themselves. You might have even crossed the road to avoid them. Today, however, we immediately assume that such people are on their cell phones and using a wireless Bluetooth ...read more
