    Mind Your Own Business!

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Oct 11, 2020
     | 6,495 views

    If we decide to get involved in another person's business, chances are we will be told to mind our own business. In some cases we should do that but there are other situations when it's appropriate to not mind our own business.

    "MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!" A few weeks ago, I did a sermon on opinions. My first point was about people who are opinionated. I talked about those who interject themselves into conversations they weren't invited in to offer their unsolicited opinion. When we do things like that, people ...read more

    The Fear Of God - The Missing Foundation In Modern Christianity Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 17, 2020
     | 3,827 views

    In this day of "fluff and icing", "feel good", "me-centered" beliefs, sermons, and teachings, the church in this present age has, for all practical purposes, abandoned the call for holiness and separation from the world.

    We who call ourselves followers of Jesus Christ in these last days have, for all practical purposes, allowed the world to tell us what to think and say when it comes to the authority of the Scriptures, the person and work of Jesus, God's nature, and the coming judgment upon this wicked and ...read more

    Therefore, Do Not Be Anxious!

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Feb 11, 2021
     | 4,333 views

    Jesus isn't simply telling us not to be anxious. He's calling us to have a completely different attitude towards material possessions and material needs from the rich fool; to be confident in God and in that confidence, to be rich towards God and others.

    ‘Do not be anxious.’ That’s what Jesus told his disciples. If only! we might think. Can we banish anxiety from our hearts simply because Jesus tells us to? We’re in a series in Luke, following Jesus and his disciples on their journey from Galilee down to Jerusalem. Their journey starts in Luke ...read more

    Tomorrow Is Not Yours

    Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on May 23, 2022
     | 3,851 views

    Yesterday is a memory. Today is in your hands. Tomorrow is not yours. The breath in you is not yours. Your life is in God's hand; you are alive because the breath of God sustains you.

    TEXT: Luke 12:16-21 "Then he told them a story: “A rich man had a fertile farm that produced fine crops. He said to himself, ‘What should I do? I don’t have room for all my crops. ’Then he said, ‘I know! I’ll tear down my barns and build bigger ones. Then I’ll have room enough to store all my ...read more

    Remember Series

     | 2,585 views

    Rabbi Abraham Joshua Herschel wrote: “Much of the Bible’s demands can be comprised in one word … Remember” … which is why God commanded us to set up special days and special celebrations and activities … to “remember.”

    “Mah nishtanah ha-lailah hazeh mikol ha-leilot?” Recognize it? If you were Jewish you would recognize it instantly. It is the question that the youngest child or person at the table asks at the beginning of every Passover or “Pesach” ceremony: “Why is this night different from all other ...read more

    From the standpoint of material wealth, Americans have difficulty realizing how rich we are.

    "From the standpoint of material wealth, Americans have difficulty realizing how rich we are. Going through a little mental exercise suggested by Robert Heilbroner can help us to count our blessings, however.

    A Warning That Bears Repeating

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 10, 2022
     | 1,952 views

    As the days draw nearer for the Lord's promised return, more people are choosing the wealth of the world rather than taking care of the most precious commodity they have, and that is their soul. Nothing of this world is worth the loss of eternal life with Christ.

    Some time ago, I watched a series of programs that the BBC (British Broadcasting Company) had produced which centered on a variety of individuals who had encountered the Lord Jesus Christ at some point in their lives yet walked away with nothing more than faint curiosity, some conversation, or ...read more

    Borrowing From Tomorrow

     | 2,658 views

    The Scriptures tell us, "Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring." (Proverbs 27:1). Too many people in these last days forget that they may not have tomorrow. The time to be prepared to meet God is now.

    All of us at one time have put things off until the last minute, such as the writing of a research paper for school or studying for exams. We put off important decisions at our place of work, or filing tax returns, buying your family Christmas presents on or near Christmas Eve, or asking that ...read more

    We are the people living in stone houses. And Jesus is challenging us with this teaching.

    Some Blog writers collect lists of humorous First World Problems, like Losing the TV Remote, Being Hungry But Not For Any Of The Food In Your Fridge, your walk-in closet is not big enough.

    Hoarder Or Steward? Series

     | 3,932 views

    This parable illustrates the deceitfulness of guarded wealth. It is a stewardship parable, in the fact that it addresses the issue of our use of resources, both monetary and spiritual. The lesson we will learn is “use it, or lose it.”

    This morning’s message is entitled “Hoarder or Steward?” O. S. Hawkins, who is with GuideStone Financial Resources of the Southern Baptist Convention, asks, “At the end of your life will you be considered a hoarder or a steward?”(1) We’re going to look at a parable this morning; one which is ...read more

    Seeking Self-Justification Series

     | 1,602 views

    Part of a Lenten Sermon Series on people in the gospels who seek out Jesus. This week we consider less than pure motivations in “Seeking Self-Justification.” We hear the story of a man who wants Jesus to settle a dispute between him and his brother.

    March 30, 2022 Hope Lutheran Church Rev. Mary Erickson Luke 12:13-21 Seeking Self-Justification Friends, may grace and peace be yours in abundance in the knowledge of God and Christ Jesus our Lord. Why do we seek Jesus? For direction, for help, for forgiveness. There are many reasons. And if ...read more

    The Road To Happiness, Joy And Peace

    Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Mar 31, 2022
     | 3,487 views

    The multitude, like many today had gotten their priorities confused. So much time is spent worrying about "things" that we lose sight of what truly matters and leads to happiness. We seek gold while dismissing God. We seek health while neglecting holiness.

    Sermon – The Road To Happiness Luke 6:20-26 “And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples, and said, Blessed be ye poor: for yours is the kingdom of God. 21 Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh. 22 Blessed are ye, when men shall hate ...read more

    beware of the trap of collecting 'things' that make you want to collect more

    Jesus said, “Take Care! Watch Out! Beware!” Jesus said, "Watch Out! Don't always be wishing for what you don't have. For real life and real living are not related to how rich we are." (Luke 12:15) This is a very appropriate warning to people in America; we seem to be obsessed ...read more

     | 1,828 views

    Jesus gave a parable of the rich man whose soul God required one night. He was called a fool because he worked hard for treasures but was poverty-stricken for God. We examine treasure in heaven and faithfulness.

This very night your soul is required of you, and now who will own what you have prepared?’}} - In verse 20 why did God call him a fool? Well there is one thing we ...read more
