    Contributed by David Darst on May 17, 2021
     | 5,813 views

    I have come to this conclusion: People do not need a “hand out” . What they really need is a “hand up” So many people would be content to be carried around in their affliction rather than walk on their own two feet. The Worst part is many Christian’s are content to keep carrying them.

    Who hasn't pulled into the wrong driveway, knocked on the wrong door, absent-mindedly lifted the handle of the wrong car door or let a ball go astray into another yard? What is triggering all the senseless violence? How do we process this as believers and regain our sense of safety?

     | 1,093 views

    We look at the horrible policies from Satan, the murderer from the beginning, in abortion, and the evil policies of Green Environmentalists. Genesis is overthrown and socialism rules. Consideration is given to the crocodile and flying fox. All of Genesis 1 is twisted and distorted.

    Zechariah and Elizabeth were a devout couple who did not have any children. We see in today’s text a lack of faith---unbelief. Then, one day the angel Gabriel showed up and told him that God was going answer His prayers and that Elizabeth would give birth to a son who was to be named John.

(6) And they were both righteous before God, walking in all the ...read more

    Moses was told to go and explore the land. It was two men who became famous for their faith in God. Joshua and Caleb believed with God they would take the land.

    Israel missed Gods best when 12 spies returned, and the majority said it was too difficult to take the promised land. Any task can feel giant when you look to the size of the task and not to God. When you look at the giant impossible task compared to your own abilities you feel like a ...read more

    Though Jesus was mocked for claiming to be the King of the Jews, he is truly the King of kings and the Lord of lords and he is worthy to be worshipped as such. I would be delighted if you could rate this sermon and give brief feedback.
