    In Jesus’ last sermon before He was betrayed, He stressed the need to keep watch and be ready for His return, emphasizing it with three parables. Are you doing what He expects from you? This ought to be our concern today.

    We’ve just read a portion of Jesus’ last sermon to His disciples before He was betrayed. • It stretches from Chapter 23 to 25, with a large part of it about His second coming. • This is the main theme of His long message. It is understandable, since He is about to leave them. • Jesus needs to tell ...read more

    Sometimes we believe the whole world revolves around us. Other times, we wonder if God really cares about us. Psalm 8 gives an attitude adjustment for both. Our true self-esteem is found in God, who is great and greatly to be praised!

    Psalm 8 Keeping things in Perspective Do you ever think that maybe Galileo and Copernicus got it wrong, that our solar system doesn’t really revolve around the sun? Because on some days it seems like the universe just revolves around you? Now let’s be honest. We all have our moments of ...read more

    Finders keepers, loser’s weepers. From dictionary.com. "A person who finds something can keep it, and the loser has no right to it. This proverb is of dubious ethical merit."

    This is one of the most familiar stories in the Bible. Most of us have heard the story from Sunday school. We have sung songs about Zacchaeus. So, what “fresh” lesson can be told concerning these verses. I. Jesus Always does the Finding 1. Most of us have heard and or used the saying, “Finders ...read more
