     | 7,667 views

    God from the beginning of time mandated/demonstrated that we all must rest in Him. We have to connect with Him to get energized! We also have to learn to rest in the future – placing our lives into the hands of the Lord.

    `Rest in Our Scripture for this series - Isa. 40:29-31: "He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall; but those who hope (rest) in the Lord will renew their strength. They soar on wings like eagles; they will ...read more

    What areas in which we can rest in the Lord

    RESTING IN THE LORD Psalms 37:7 Part 1 Introduction: At the pastor’s fellowship the other day, one of the preachers made the point that sometimes we get more out of the messages when the Lord gave us a thought. Then He mentioned in his message about resting in the Lord. That sparked me to reread ...read more

    Jesus commends a rhythm for life - worship, then work.

    “Renewable Energy: The Rest of the Story” Luke 10:38-42 So with whom do you identify – Martha or Mary? Which one do you like better? I think I agree with the man who replied, “I like Martha best during dinner and I like Mary best after dinner.” It’s almost ...read more

    Paul concludes chapter 11 explaining that God has not given up on the people of Israel by revealing the mystery that "all Israel will be saved." The thought that God's plan includes mercy for Jews and Gentiles propels Paul into a majestic doxology about the glory of God.

    A. I used to love listening to Paul Harvey’s “The Rest of the Story” radio broadcasts. 1. The short radio segments consisted of stories presented as little-known or forgotten facts on a variety of subjects with some key element of the story (usually the name of some well-known person) held back ...read more

    This message looks at the type of rest that Jesus promises and who it was promised to.

    Pinky Swear, rest Sometimes you hear people talk about how hard they work and how tired they are. But in 2018 in North America, I’m not sure that we have that completely in perspective. And I understand that there are different types of work and different types of tired. I was in a meeting ...read more

    Why are we granting God silence? Why are we allowing God the opportunity to rest?

    Rest Less I. Introduction We are a people who struggle to get enough rest. In fact, the average American gets 6.8 hours of sleep at night, down more than an hour from 1942. To many in the medical field this is troubling because medical studies have related a lack of sleep to health problems and ...read more

     | 5,303 views

    Jesus set the example of our need for spiritual and physical rest and renewal.

    WHEN IT COMES TO THE HEALTH OF OUR SOULS, I BELIEVE WE ALL NEED A QUIET PLACE WHERE WE CAN GO TO FIND REST AND LASTING REFRESHMENT. IT SHOULD BE A SECLUDED PLACE AND A PRIVATE PLACE. THE GOOD NEWS IS THAT IN ORDER TO REACH SUCH A PLACE, WE DON’T HAVE TO TRAVEL VERY FAR. UNDERSTANDING THE NEED FOR ...read more

    Rest can mean a lot of things. Rest can be sleep, but it can also mean, just relaxing and hanging out. Or vacation, or retirement, or just not having to do anything, freed of responsibility and stress and just living the good life.

    The Rest of God Does anyone like to rest? When I was a teen, I used to be able to sleep until 2pm! Now-a-days, I wake up a few times during the night and I can’t seem to sleep past 6:30am! Sometimes, I just would like to sleep late! But of course, waking up is a good thing to be able to do ...read more

    Because God rested, we must rediscover rest to be refreshed.

    Last October, when Lucas and our daughter Megan still lived in New York, we drove to see them for a long weekend. Normally, we leave early in the morning for our east coast road trips, but that week we couldn’t leave until after lunch on Thursday. Our thought was we’d drive until we were tired, ...read more

    God has called upon us to walk before him in holiness, and has revealed that he is powerful enough to make his promises come to pass.

    Pastor’s note: I wanted to call this "A Cut above" but couldn’t bring myself to do it. Passage: Genesis 17:1-27 In Genesis 15 God came to Abram and introduced repeated to him the Abrahamic covenant and it’s central tenant; that of God’s undeserved blessing to Abram.

    If we accept the rest Jesus offers, all we have to do is accept his teachings as well as the obligations he will lay upon us. He invites us to treat each other as brothers and sisters in Christ.

    “Nothing I do is ever enough!!!” Have you ever heard someone say that? Have you ever said that or thought that yourself? Well I certainly have, especially when my father was alive. Sometimes no matter how much we do, how much we say, how much we pay, how much we save, how much we ...read more

    Why is the Sabbath day celebrated on Sunday? Why are the Pharisees upset with Jesus about working on the Sabbath day? Why are the Pharisees upset with Jesus? Does the law make people well or does grace and mercy make people well?

    Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. When you hear that you ought to keep the Sabbath Day holy, what does it mean to you? I know for many the first response is we ought to go to church. Sunday is the Lord’s Day so let that be a day dedicated to the Lord and go ...read more
