    Put God To The Test Series

    Contributed by Don Hawks on Sep 30, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,972 views

    The ist in a series of sermons on guidelines to living a more abundant life that God wants us to live. Put God to the test by tithing and observing the benefits of the practice.

    Today I am talking about a subject that people don’t like to hear about—I’ll say that up front. Preachers don’t like to talk about tithing and money because we don’t like people’s eyes glazing over or people getting fidgety or you start flip through the hymn book or something. Church members ...read more

    In the end it comes down to what you think is most important to whom do you owe your loyalty - to God or yourself and your desires. As Jesus said; “No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other,...

    "No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money."(Luke 16:13 NIV) How many of us have ever tried to work two jobs in order to make the ends meet? If you have, have you ...read more

    Ever meet cheap rich people? Ever wanted to be more giving and kind than they were? The first step is to admit that you are rich, than you will act like a rich person.

    HOW TO BE RICH TEXT: 1 TIMOTHY 6:6-10, 17-19 THEME: YOU ARE RICH SO ACT LIKE A RICH PERSON. It was a terrible day. I remember this day too well because of the feeling I had.

    This is the first in a series of stewardship sermons aimed at priming the pump; getting people to think of stewardship as more than money, but a whole way of life.

It is an annual journey; this year it will culminate on November 18 with our Consecration/Thanksgiving Sunday. I am obviously talking about the annual stewardship emphasis.

    Do You Really Want To Follow Jesus?

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 18, 2007
    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,586 views

    We need to distinguish between needs and wants. Poverty can help us decide what we truly need; then we become eager to make happen what we truly want. Our relationship to God determines our priorities. Montgomery Hills Baptist Church

    Some things I need, it is true. But many of the things I think I need I do not truly need. I only want them, but persuade myself I need them. They are not needs; they are wants. And, deeper than that, many of the things I think I want I do not truly want. I just hope they will make me feel ...read more

    Jesus’ story knocks us off balance. Position is nothing and relationship is everything. Possessions are not signs of God’s love but tools for God’s blessings

    Luke 16:19-31 “Turning the Tables” INTRODUCTION Often times we go through life on auto-pilot. • We may spend most of a day in meetings with a person and not be able to describe what that person was wearing. • We driving down the highway. We reach a particular point in our journey and ...read more

    DAR PARA RECIBIR 2 Cor. 9:6-15 Cuando era joven yo pensaba que el dinero era lo más importante en la vida, ahora sé que lo es.

    Spiritual Seeds Of Stewardship

    Contributed by Billy Ricks on Apr 1, 2008
     | 2,874 views

    From the beginning of creation man was placed under God’s authority and given responsibility. That responsibility was to be a caretaker of the resources God had provided. Learn where the seeds of stewardship are planted.

    Intro: Was stewardship made up by the early ministers of the church? Did they merely preach it to fill the coffers or offering plates? Is stewardship simply the way that pastors and other “ministers” multiply their earnings? Many of you know that is not the case. However there may be as much ...read more

    The message looks at the Christians need for Generosity.

    The test for many Christians becomes evident in the reaction they display when the topic turns from being Christ-like with our morals to being Christ-like with our money.
