    We are called to shine the light of Christ to illumine the darkness of the world while living in expectation of the return of Jesus.

    JOHN THE BAPTIST! IT WAS ISAIAH WHO PROPHESIED IN 40:3, “A VOICE OF ONE CALLING: “IN THE WILDERNESS PREPARE THE WAY FOR THE LORD; MAKE STRAIGHT IN THE DESERT A HIGHWAY FOR OUR GOD.” NOW, 700 YEARS LATER, JOHN IS PROCLAIMING THE MESSAGE, “REPENT, FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN HAS COME NEAR…THEREFORE, ...read more

    John the baptist doubts Jesus which leads him to ask questions about Jesus.

    Doubt Doubt is a part of life. We believe in a God who is all powerful and magnificent and yet we have never seen Him. Without doubt there could be no faith for all we would have would be certainty. Sometimes we think of doubt as the opposite of faith. That is not the case. Unbelief is the ...read more

    How To Increase Our Joy In Our Work For The Kingdom

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jul 14, 2010
     | 5,270 views

    This message looks at how churches and Christians tend to view other churches and believers with jealousy. How can we move beyond that and find more joy?

    Ways We Lose Sight Of The Goal In Our Kingdom Work: 1. Resenting another person or church’s rising popularity. - John 3:25-26. - Considering that John had repeatedly spoken to his disciples about Jesus and who He is, their resentment is stunning. - First of all, they don’t even have ...read more

    "Well he started it!" "No I didn't, she did!" Sorry, I am just reminded of my childhood days when the arguments got too heated with my sister. But this is a slightly bigger battle. John started it and the repercussions of his actions have been ongoing.

    Part 4 - Matthew 11:12 - WELL HE STARTED IT! Since I had nothing better to do and everyone had gone out, I decided to watch the war movie "SAVING PRIVATE RYAN". It was some years ago now and I was at my daughter's house and Joel, my son-in-law had just connected his TV WITH SURROUND SOUND. The ...read more

    How can John the Baptist be Elijah the prophet? Reincarnation? Malachi 4:5 (NLT) gives a prophecy about Elijah. It says "Look, I am sending you the prophet Elijah before the great and dreadful day of the Lord arrives."

    Part 5 - Matthew 11:13-14 - IN A PREVIOUS LIFE I WAS A DOLPHIN? I asked some friends what they thought about REINCARNATION last night and got some funny responses - should have known. One of them said "once, in a previous life, I was a dolphin... lol jk." Another one said "It’s weird to think you ...read more

    Encouragement for those times when, like John the Baptist, we have become frustrated and disappointed when God didn't work in the way we hoped or prayed about.

    BELOVED PASTOR, D. L. MOODY, ONCE REMARKED THAT, “THE BEST WAY TO SHOW THAT A STICK IS CROOKED IS NOT TO ARGUE ABOUT IT OR TO SPEND TIME DENOUNCING IT, BUT TO LAY A STRAIGHT STICK ALONGSIDE IT.” IT IS HUMAN NATURE TO QUESTION AND TO BE SKEPTICAL OF FACTS, FIGURES OR ANY TYPE OF ...read more

    A sermon for the 2nd Sunday in Advent preached 12/6/2009 at Our Saviour’s Lutheran Church, Audubon, Iowa. It is a revision of a sermon I preached in 2003 on the same text.

    A sermon for the 3rd Sunday in Advent preached 12/12/2009. It had a dual text, the other is John 3:7-18 and shows us how we as Christians can rejoice in repentance!

    “Rejoice in the Lord always, again, I will say Rejoice!” That’s how our Epistle reading for this morning begins. In fact, the traditional Latin name for this Sunday in Advent is Gaudete, meaning, Joy, based on that verse, which was for years a portion of the Introit for the day. Yet, joy is ...read more

    Okay, let’s open up our Bibles this morning to Luke chapter three. If you know we started the series on Luke back in December.

    Between Malachi and Matthew there were 400 years of silence, but, the Messiah was coming and a new day was dawning.

    Intro. We live in a day that in many ways, God appears silent. He is not, but we are seeing a digression of all things Godly! The wicked seem loud and seek to silence those that love God. Here we are on the brink of Christmas and there are those opposed to saying Merry Christmas - silence ...read more

    Is Jesus the one they have been waiting for?

    A life of peace and joy, that’s the kind of life I want to live; a life without worries and troubles. The American dream sounds like such a great idea; a big house with a big yard, a nice car in the drive-way, and a perfectly happy family.
