    Rather than observe this service on All Saints Sunday in November, we always hold a Memorial Service honoring the memory of all the saints from our Church Family on Memorial Day Sunday in May each year. This sermon was for this occasion in May 2008.

    So You Think You Have It Bad? --Job 19:25-27 Today we honor the memory of those who were part of our Church family or recipients of the ministry of our Church that God has called home within the past year. It is a time to remember and honor those who were loyal to God and His Kingdom, but are ...read more

    The Spirit Controlled Life Galatians 5:16-25 March 2008 * One of the positive things about preaching through a book of the Bible is that you are forced to address topics that you might otherwise skip over. * Traditionally, we Baptist have left the teaching of a Spirit controlled life to the ...read more

    Woman, Here Is Your Son

    We have recorded for us seven of the sayings made by Jesus from the cross. This sermon seeks to describe what were are to gain/learn from Jesus providing for his mother.

    John, in specifically selecting the events that lead to belief, preserves for us three of the recorded sayings that Jesus made while suffering the unthinkable, the unimaginable on the cross. The Synoptic writers record four others. We would be in error to portray that we know for certain that ...read more

    Kingdom Credentials

     | 4,225 views

    According to the Bible, the Good News of Jesus Christ is powerful and is never to be communicated in word only. The testimony of the Cross of Christ is to be made effective not only by proclamation but also in demonstration of the power of the Holy Ghost.

    Rom 15:18-19 I dare not boast of anything else. I have brought the Gentiles to God by my message and by the way I lived before them. 19 I have won them over by the miracles done through me as signs from God--all by the power of God’s Spirit. In this way, I have fully presented the Good News of ...read more

    Broken, Worn Out, Old Clay Pots

    I used this sermon as one of several in a series on Clay Pots (Earthen Vessels). This was the one I used on Father’s Day during that series.

    I recently came across a Chinese parable that eludes to our thoughts for today’s text. It’s a tale about a water-bearer and his two pots of clay. An elderly peasant had two large clay pots. One of the pots had a crack down its side to a point about half way. The other pot, perfect! Each had been ...read more

    How do we reject sin and enter the real life God wishes for us?

    Should we continue in sin in order that grace may abound? 2By no means! How can we who died to sin go on living in it? 3Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? 4Therefore we have been buried with him by baptism into death, so that, ...read more

    Assuming you believe that God exists and that He’s interested enough in you that He had a purpose for you, not just when you came into the world but long before that – He had you in mind when He first spun the world itself into existence.

    “This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it” (Psalm 118:24). I used to work at a place where we had daily meetings. Every morning at 8:00 we would sit down for fifteen minutes and go over the day’s schedule, discuss yesterday’s production, correct mistakes and add on ...read more

    I would like to ask a question. What good is faith if not acted upon?

    Romans 10:6 But the righteousness of faith speaks in this way, "Do not say in your heart, `Who will ascend into heaven?’ ’’ (that is, to bring Christ down from above) 7. or, " `Who will descend into the abyss?’ ’’ (that is, to bring Christ up from the dead). 8. But what does it say? "The word ...read more
