  • Live As Sheep Of The Good Shepherd

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on May 9, 2022
     | 4,689 views

    Do we really know what it means to be sheep—even sheep of the Good Shepherd?

    It is a tradition that goes back hundreds of years. Christians set aside one Sunday in the Easter Season as “Good Shepherd Sunday.” We can understand why this practice has stood the test of time. Christians love to think of Jesus as their Good Shepherd! Think of the emotions that a picture like ...read more

    It's good to establish memorials and hold events to remember important occasions or people. What about when it comes to God? If we're not careful, our focus on God could fade to where we think of him less and less. We have to be careful to not forget God.

    NEVER FORGET If you're anything like me, it's easy to forget things; especially if they're not written down. Researcher Karen Bolla lists the top three things people most often forget: 3. phone numbers. 2. where something is. 1. names. Sometimes we can even forget something important ...read more

     | 3,514 views

    This sermon brings this sermon series to an end. Since it should be our goal to make our lives all about God, then we should do our best to protect God's good name by our life of integrity and character. We are God's ambassadors and let's be the best ambassadors we can be.

    A. Today’s sermon brings to a conclusion our sermon series “It’s All About God – Living A God-Centered Life.” 1. It has been a real joy and a real blessing for me to develop this sermon series using Max Lucado’s book “It’s Not About You” as a resource. 2. We have spent three months of Sundays ...read more

     | 414 views

    For our sermon this morning we are invited to hear a message from the Prophet Isaiah in his role as an Advent preacher. Actually, we hear three messages connected to three voices calling out in his prophecy.

    They were all Advent preachers. From Moses to Malachi their messages were the same. Repent. Return. Believe. Yes, they delivered their messages in different ways, and at different times. But ultimately, they were the voices of God calling his people to turn away from their sins, return to ...read more

    When we face overwhelming challenges, prayer and faith in God’s promises empower us to overcome fear and step forward with courage and obedience.

    Some days, the mirror tells the truth you’d rather ignore. Not the truth about hairlines and headlines, but the whisper that says, “You’re small.” Bills stack tall, bosses bark loud, diagnoses loom large, and your heart crouches like a child in the hallway of a big, echoing house. Have you felt ...read more

    Confidence in our salvation is essential to vibrant life as a Christian. John writes to encourage believers to focus on what is essential for vigorous faith.

    “I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God, that you may know that you have eternal life.” [1] The couple, a man and a woman, had come to the door professing concern for my welfare.

    We’re called to take a Chritian stand and not a political stand when it comes to war? Should we support it or oppose it?

  • "The Subtle Sin Of Codependency"

    Contributed by Jerry Depoy on Jul 31, 2008
    based on 9 ratings
     | 8,536 views

    We might assume that Eve wanted to know evil, however, was that her primary motive? It is my opinion that Eve wanted to become “God” so that she could be good, not necessarily so that she could be evil! And that is a subtle thought!

    My personal definition of co-dependency for your consideration: When a person focuses on someone besides God, in an attempt to become the god of a person who is in distress, until the person they are trying to help, ultimately becomes their god. Our Church has begun a “Celebration Recovery” ...read more
