    1 Peter 3:8-9 gives us a descriptive picture of how we should treat each other. It offers a positive look at how we should act, a negative look at how we shouldn't act, and, a look at how our love for one another will bring a blessing.

    Today, let's take a look at some instruction from the Holy Scriptures on differing attitudes. Attitudes what a difference they make in every part of our lives! Different attitudes of cashiers under certain circumstances. Good cashiers: Friendly, pleasant, courteous, smiling If situation ...read more

    Pentecost 16(A) - Love is the fulfillment of the law. Believers obey God’s established government and honor their neighbors above themselves out of love for God.

    While we often question God’s love, we can rest assured that He has poured out His favor on His people.

It’s time to get ready for church!” He just grumbled and replied grumpily, “I don’t want to go to church today. Those people at church don’t like me. I don’t want to go.” She persisted, “You ...read more

    Does God’s love make any difference in our lives and in the way we live? It should. Do we just love a little, or are we dedicated and committed to loving others as God loves us?

    Fred Craddock is a great preacher and a great story-teller, and one of the stories I’ve heard him tell had to do with a trip in which he and his wife went back to their native Tennessee. They drove up to a small restaurant in Gatlinburg. They were tired and hungry and still had miles to drive ...read more

    We have ’Free Church Homecoming’ - an ecumenical service once a year. This sermon is an encouragement to go and to be the church universal, not just a congregation.

But nowadays, sometimes it seems like it’s getting just a little bit old. It’s tempting to say that the idea has had its day and ...read more
