    How was Titus going to "straighten out what had been left unfinished" in Crete? It was an evil land and he was only one man. How did God expect him to do such a daunting task?

    How many of you have ever heard of a television show called “This Old House” (the majority raised their hands). It is a popular home improvement show that is now in its 36th season – that’s 36 years it’s been on TV. It’s popular because people are intrigued with ...read more

    In his instructions of the role of older women, God tells us what he really thinks about the role of women in the church.

    As I read the text at the beginning of the sermon I asked the audience to pay special attention to the instructions Titus received in what he was to teach each specific group in this passage - Titus 2:1-10). Have you ever seen a child with lots of freckles on their face? I read the story about ...read more

    May we be encouraged today by the Words of the Apostle Peter: FIRST OF ALL in whatever we do be holy and godly SO THEN we wait in God’s patience so that others may come to know Him THEREFORE be on guard while we wait and remain faithful

    I relied heavily on SermonCentral contributor Larry Sarver's sermon "Defining Discipleship" for this lesson. I addressed the topic of Growing Deeper through Discipleship in two sermons.

    A. The story is told of a pig and a chicken who were walking down the road one day. 1. As they passed a church, they notice that a potluck charity breakfast was under way. 2. Caught up in the spirit, the pig suggested to the chicken that they each make a contribution. 3. “Great Idea!” ...read more

    When you sit, eat, fellowship and walk closely with the King of Glory, increase is guaranteed; the kind of testimony you can’t even ask or imagine will be given you and your tomorrow will certainly be better than your today..

    Text: 2 Samuel 9:1-7 Introduction The story of Mephibosheth is a testimony of overnight increase. It is a story of how you can be suffering and weeping today and tomorrow you are smiling and dancing for joy (Psalm 30:5). It is a story of how you can be living with someone today because you ...read more

    A Study Of The Book Of Revelation, 10. Chapter 13,antichrist And His Helper Series

    Contributed by Bob Faulkner on Jun 21, 2015
     | 6,679 views

    Man of Sin, Beast, Antichrist. Many titles, one man. Not a series of men. Not an office. A man. Read carefully, let no one deceive. He is coming. Chapters 13, 17, and 19 furnish a combined portrait of the man.

    Close-up : The man of sin and his helper (13, 17:7-17, 19:17-21) Perhaps the most obvious of the long-term background descriptions is the one regarding antichrist. It is proper so to refer to him, but John never does, in Revelation. He here calls him the beast. In Daniel 7, he is the little horn ...read more

    It was said that one of President Reagan's favourite stories involves a farmer and a lawyer whose cars just collided in a main street.

    We are all commanded to learn to obey everything Jesus taught so that we can do our part in the ministry of reconciliation. We cannot do this if we feed our spirit distorted scripture and the wisdom of man.

    Positively Not a Hireling Illustration Right after a young man graduated, with high honors, from a prestigious Bible College he was hired by a rather large church. His father, the pastor of a small rural church, was bursting with pride at his son’s accomplishment. “Son,” he said, ...read more

    Last week I told you about the best summer job I ever had, and it was working on a ocean going salvage tugboat that went to the North Pole in 1981.

    This sermon looks at the parable of the Prodigal Son, and explores the relationship between the father, the younger son, and the older son. The intertwined relationship of this family shows that love and respect should be the key values of our church.

    Lately I have been binge watching this new American TV series called “This is us”. It’s about a family with triplets and their intertwining stories with each other now, when the characters are grown up, but it constantly flashes back to their childhood times. It shows how their loving parents ...read more
