    God's unconditional love fuels Jesus' ministry and sacrifice, and we are called to love others in the same way.

    Our main verse for today is John 3:16. You've probably heard it before, but let's read it together: 'For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.' So, God loves us so much that He sent Jesus to save us. That's ...read more

    Jesus’ love wasn’t empty words. His love was manifested as he stood silent before His mockers and accusers, by every cruel lash He took for us, by every step He took on the road to Calvary, by each nail driven into his body. This should have been us.

    Every sermon we preach, no matter what time of year it is, points to the Person of Jesus Christ because He is the Cornerstone of our faith. Christ’s incarnation - was when God, the Creator of the earth and of every living creature and of the entire universe was born on the earth as a man. Christ’s ...read more

    There are some stories that are so wonderful they leave us feeling blessed just by hearing them. The story of God's extravagant love is one such story.

    There are certain stories that at the moment you read them or hear them they have the ability to really tug on the strings of the heart. They are so moving, so beautiful that you can’t help but feel blessed just by the mere fact of having heard or read them. This is exactly the way I felt when I ...read more

    This first sermon in my transforming truth series addresses the most fundamental of truths - God loves us. If we get that one on straight, then we will be well on our way.

    It Is A Love Story

    Is the story about healing the Leper just about physical healing? Or is there more to the story? Most translations use the word "clean" ... not "healed." But could this "clean" mean "forgiveness" of sin? Mark Chapter 2 suggests it may be.

    I confess to you how I struggled with the scripture this morning. I struggled because when I first read this scripture, I wondered “how can I preach about this “healing” when I know we have people in our congregation who are good, faithful servants, disciples of Jesus Christ, yet who are suffering ...read more

    Our society confuses LOVE and LUST. Unlike lust, God’s kind of love is directed toward others, not inward toward ourselves. This kind of love goes against our natural inclinations. It is natural to love them that love us, but it is supernatural to love th

    By way of introduction, note the word “fruit”. It means harvest. The word is singular. It is the divine life working in us.

    The following series of sermons was preached from the pulpit of First Baptist Church Dresden during the Fall of 2006. They are based on the writings of the Apostle Paul found in Galatians 5:22-23. I simply call this series “The Fruit of the Spirit.” Please note that tis is the Spirit’s fruit, not ...read more

    Introduction: Unbelievers have always had a hard time figuring out the lifestyle of Christ’s disciples. When you think about it, you can understand their difficulty. They are guided by a life philosophy that promotes selfishness (the attitude that says, “You’ve gotta look out for ‘Number One’”), ...read more

    Understanding that God is love. True love isn’t an emotion, it is God! And God’s love transcends everything. Nothing can keep God’s love from anyone!

    A couple had been married for fifty years. “Things have really changed,” she said. “You used to sit so close to me.” “Well I can remedy that,” he said moving close to her on the couch. “And you used to hold me tight,” she said. “How’s that,” he said as he gave her a big hug. “ Do you remember ...read more
