     | 153,183 views

    Ten lepers were healed, yet only one returned to give thanks. There are several truths that can be seen from this one who returned to give thanks that we should apply to ourselves to help us be thankful.

    Most of us are familiar with the traditional story of Thanksgiving where William Bradford, of Plymouth Rock, proclaimed a day of Thanksgiving to celebrate the survival of the Pilgrims in their second year in the New World, as well as an abundant harvest that they had reaped with the aid of the ...read more

    Our giving to God should not be a mindless impulsive response to him. The lesson here teaches that our giving should be systematic, deliberate, intentional, and carefully though through. Not only that, but it should be proportionate to the income we recei

    Contributed by Nathan Johnson on May 29, 2008
    based on 9 ratings
     | 13,262 views

    A father’s counsel to His children is the most precious gift, outside of salvation, that any man can give. How you live, not just the words you say or the commands you give, will teach your children.

    A Father’s Advice Griffith Baptist Church – 6/15/08 A.M. Service Text: 1 Kings 2:1-4 Key verse: 1 Kings 2:2 - I go the way of all the earth: be thou strong therefore, and show thyself a man; The Introduction The bride was very nervous.

    Forgive Me . . . O, And You, Too Series

     | 4,340 views

    We want (maybe even expect) forgiveness from God; but when it comes to giving forgiveness, it is harder than we might think. Jesus reminds us that our receiving forgiveness hinges on our giving of it.

    1. Peace Child Missionary Don Richardson who served for many years among the primitive tribes in Papua New Guinea wrote a book entitled "The Peace Child." He writes how in translating the Scriptures into the native tribesmen language, he could find no words to express how Jesus Christ came to give ...read more

    Fathers, Lead Your Family - A Message To Fathers On Mothers Day

    Contributed by Paul Barreca on May 12, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 10,335 views

    If the greatest gift a dad can give his children is to love their mother. The greatest gift a man can give his wife is to lead his family. We will examine Proverbs 4 as a pattern for fathers to lead their families.

    Since today is Mothers Day, I thought I would begin with some statistics from Moms on their most difficult moments. These results were taken from a nation wide survey of moms with children under six. The “Worst place to have to change a diaper” 47% said a public restroom with no ...read more

    Weapons For Offense

    Contributed by Steve Smith on Mar 30, 2010
    based on 9 ratings
     | 18,328 views

    After encouraging believers with different defensive weapons for "spiritual warfare", Paul gives two weapons that together give the believer weapons for "hand to hand" combat. Both however, only work through the power and connection of the Spirit.

    A. Quote: Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones wrote this about our spiritual battle: A man who does not understand the nature of the problem he is confronting is a man who is already doomed to failure. Christian people are like first-year college students—they think at first that every subject is quite ...read more

    Job 1: Job's first test. Do we devote ourselves to God because He gives us blessings, or does He give us blessings because we devote ourselves to Him?

    How do you react to devastation in your life? I think that, with most people, the worse our tragedies are, the worse our reactions will be. And while that is a human instinct, is it a Godly instinct? Let’s take a look at the book of JOB today and see if there is anything we might be able to ...read more

     | 723 views

    Is there any such thing like the right type of anger in Christianity? Absolutely! There is the anger that leads to sin and has dire consequences and gives glory to the devil and there is the type of anger that disrupts satan’s work and give God the glory and honor.

    First and foremost, we want to give thanks to our Heavenly Father, one of the greatest Fathers of all. Although we will poke fun at our earthly fathers’ we at the same time will give honor to them and God.

    Ephesians 6:1-4 Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. “Honor your father and mother,” which is the first commandment with promise: “that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.” And you, fathers, do not provoke your children to wrath, but bring them up in ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 745 views

    Prayer is more important than giving, because when we pray, we are moved to give. How can we face life's tests without prayer, our spiritual study? Life's tests are much harder.

    Today, we will explore the significance of prayer in our lives. Prayer is essential because it not only connects us with God but also empowers us to live a life of purpose and fulfillment. Let us delve into Romans 12:1-12 to understand the importance of prayer. 1. Prayer vs. Giving: Which is more ...read more

    God wants us to experience an abundant, blessed, happy life. The Psalmist gives us direction on how we can be open to God’s blessings in our lives and be like trees planted by water.

    Psalms 1:1-6     “Blessed by God”INTRODUCTIONThe Bible often talks about joy and happiness. Jesus talks about being happy, or blessed, in the Sermon on the Mount. One of the fruits of the Spirit that Paul lists in his letter to the Galatians is “joy.” Psalms, like this psalm, talk about being ...read more

    It's A Miracle: Thanking God For Salvation Series

    Contributed by Rickey Bennett on Aug 16, 2009
     | 5,828 views

    If our giving thanks are functional, perfunctory, ho-hum, half-heartedness, and joyless, it is because we have ceased pondering the specifics of just what God has done for us in salvation at the cross.

    1. Title: It’s a Miracle! 2. Big Idea: We can be captivated by joy rather than captured by unworthiness. 3. Introduction: a. Read: Colossians 1:12-14 b. Prayer: c.
