    Are we prepared for the journey that awaits us?

    In his book, Gentle Thunder, Max Lucado tells the story of Sir John Franklin. It was 1845 in England.

    Sometimes the toughest thing about a project is knowing where to start.

    Have you ever had a project that was so big, you just didn’t know where to start? My garage is like that. It was a mess before we moved in and it’s only gotten worse. It absolutely drives me nuts. Several years ago, when we lived in Mississippi, I had a beautiful tool shed. I had pegboard on ...read more

    How do you feel when you see the sin in the world around you? Do you feel the same way about the sin that’s in your midst? What about the sin that’s in your heart?

    It seems like every few months in the news, we hear about some new espionage investigation. One thing you can count on in this world. Somebody somewhere is spying on somebody else. As a matter of fact, the Defense Department spends millions of dollars per year developing new technologies to spy ...read more

    Newton’s First Law of Motion states: Everything continues in a state of rest unless it is compelled to change by forces impressed upon it. Do the forces of sin around you compel you to change?

    Turn with me to Ezra 9. EZRA 9:3-5 After putting it off for a long time, a man finally went to the doctor. After the examination and all of the tests and blood work, the doctor just shook his head. He told the man, “You are in terrible shape. In order to pull out of this, you’re going to have ...read more

    What does the prayer of corporate confession look like?

    Three theologians were having a deep theological discussion while they were walking down the street one day. They were talking about prayer.

    Whatever trials you’re going through, Jesus calls you to simply remain faithful to Him.

    I have to tell you about my experience this week. This week I did something I’ve never done before. This might surprise you, but up until Tuesday, I had never voted in a voting booth. You see, I turned 18 when I was in Basic Training. From that point forward, I always voted absentee. If you’ve ...read more

    The church must hold to the right doctrine. In Pergamos, they held to the name of Christ, but it had no content or real meaning to them.

    As the messenger who was carrying this letter from the island of Patmos where John wrote it, he would have come to Ephesus first. He would have stayed there while it was read and then left them a copy. Then he would have headed north to Smyrna and done the same thing. The third stop on his ...read more

    This message encourages Dads to use their amazing power of blessing in order to help their children.

    - The idea of “blessing” seems odd to us. It’s not a concept that we use very often. - We will even say things like “God bless you” without actually thinking that it means anything except just that it’s something nice to say. - Yet it’s all through the Scripture: 467 times in the Bible, with 108 ...read more

    Four ways to know that God’s people are ready to accomplish the work He has for them.

    It’s been a few weeks since we’ve been in Ezra, so I think it’s important that we spend a few minutes remembering where we are. That’s always an important thing to remember in your own personal Bible study. It’s very easy to get so wrapped up in a particular passage or verse that you forget the ...read more

    In these final verses, we see two models we can learn from. We see the model of spiritual leadership that Ezra shows us. And we see the model of faithful followership that the people show us.

    Turn with me to Ezra 10 Our passage tonight runs from verse 6 all the way through the end of the chapter. Because the passage is so long, we’re not going to read it to start off with. We’re going to read it as we go along. We have followed our remnant all the way through the book of Ezra. ...read more

    Turn with me to Revelation 3 REVELATION 3:7-13 Out of all seven of these churches we’ve been looking at in Revelation 1-3, there were only two that were getting it right.

    The lukewarm church of Laodicea.

    Turn with me to Revelation 3 REVELATION 3:14-22 This morning we reach the last stop on our tour of the seven churches of Asia Minor. And with this last stop, we come across probably the most familiar. Many of us have probably heard several sermons on this passage in our lifetimes. If not, ...read more
