    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Jul 30, 2025
     | 277 views

    We know what brings happiness, and it's not more and more "stuff."

    Eighteenth Sunday in Course 2025 It’s always a challenge to interpret a public proclamation that begins with the word “If,” as today’s reading from St. Paul does. He tells the church at Colossae (and us) “If you were raised with Christ, seek what is above, where Christ is seated at the right hand ...read more

    The Parable of the Rich Fool teaches us not to hoard the blessing God's lavishes upon us. We find ways to share, give, and provide for others in need with a generous spirit.

    But Jesus, with divine wisdom, sees beyond the surface conflict to the heart issue that threatens both brothers: greed. In response, He tells one of His most sobering parables, a story that cuts through our material obsessions and calls us to examine where we place our trust and hope.

    The scene opens with a dispute over inheritance - a matter as relevant today as it was two thousand years ago. But Jesus, with divine wisdom, sees beyond the surface conflict to the heart issue that threatens both brothers: greed. In response, He tells one of His most sobering parables, a story ...read more

    There are so many factors that come into play when we make plans, but how often does the Sovereign will of God affect our plan making? In this passage, James challenges us to avoid hubris and embrace humility by submitting to God’s sovereignty in making plans.

    Mistakes along the way? In February of 1995, nearly 30 years ago, the Holy Spirit spoke to me in a clear way that has impacted the course of my life - and yet it has not been without mistakes and missteps. He urged me to go to the church the Danielle grew up at and help out with the youth ...read more

    Contributed by Duane Wente on Jul 14, 2025
     | 910 views

    The world says your value is measured by what you own—status, wealth, and accomplishments. But God says your worth is found in who you are (your character) and whose you are (your identity in Christ). We are not defined by what we accumulate, but by our foundation in Him.

But before we dive into Scripture, I want to start by letting someone else do the talking. You see, there is a video that’s been floating around for years — some of ...read more

     | 3,984 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
