    A look at God's call to be concerned for the vulnerable.

    Our Starting Point: “What’s best for me?” - We usually end up with a self-centered mentality. We look out for ourselves. And that is certainly encouraged within our society.

    It's difficult to see pride in yourself. This message identifies seven areas where our pride often rears its ugly head.

    - Few people will admit to being proud. It’s difficult thing to see in yourself. - In our passage for this morning (James 4:6), it tells us that God opposes the proud.

In the Mosaic Law, as God tells Israel that their obedience will lead to Him blessing, He then explicitly warns them that there is a great danger ...read more

    Four insights on receiving more from the Word in worship.

    WHY DID THEY PUBLICLY READ THE SCRIPTURE? Because most of the church could not read. - 1 Timothy 4:13. - Why does Paul command for the Word to be read in worship?

    Some reflections on Nehemiah's opponents, Sanballat and Tobiah; sermon for a church about to vote on a building program.

    Last week as we spoke about Nehemiah and God’s vision for the rebuilding of Jerusalem’s wall, I hope one theme came through loud and clear: When God wants something, He’s going to get what He wants. The only question for us is, “Who is on the Lord’s side?” In ...read more

  • Why Does The Government Do More Than The Church To Help The Poor? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jun 26, 2015
     | 5,348 views

    This passage on the care of widows opens up a larger question: what's the place the church should have in the care of the poor (versus the place the government should have)?

    THE POINT OF THE PASSAGE: Taking care of the needy widows was a big deal in the early church. - There was a different societal structure and a lack of social safety net back then. The church stepped in to help. - Unpack some of the passage. - The passage raises a more general question: why ...read more

    An examination of what HAS changed, what HAS NOT changed, and what NEEDS to change in the wake of the Supreme Court's decision to force same-sex marriage on the American people.

    I want to address three matters in this message with regard to the Supreme Court’s supremely satanic decision in Obergefell v. Hodges: What has changed, what hasn’t changed, and what must change. First of all, what has changed? For one thing, this nation. Obergefell v. Hodges is new ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,840 views

    A look at two of the sections in 1 Timothy that deal with the pastoral role.

    - First, let me say up front that this is not going to be an exciting sermon. I say that because the subject is one that is not particularly pressing. It is important, but most prefer sermons that focus on your personal walk with the Lord. This message deals with a corporate concern. - ...read more
