    We live in a negative world. The Bible is full of positives. In the parable of the Prodigal Son & the Elder Brother, we see both optimism & pessimism.

    “Being Optimistic In A Pessimistic World” INTRODUCTION: There are many books on POSITIVE THINKING. The book “The Power Of Positive Thinking” by Norman Vincent Peale was required reading when I was a student at Trinity College. There are all kinds of “helps” out there to help us maintain a ...read more

    Our God loves to party and His parties are lavish and extravagant and they satisfy to the very core of your being. God’s parties are for all people. God’s ultimate party will start on time and only those who are ready for it get to share in the joy.

    A modern story of the Prodigal Son from the song: ’Tie a Yellow Ribbon Around the Old Oak Tree’

    Jesus told a story of a man who had two sons. The younger son was discontented with life at home and he said to his father, ’Father, I want right now what’s coming to me.’ So the father divided the property between his sons and the younger packed his bags and left for a distant country. He was a ...read more

    Funeral message for Michael Keys, age 36, whose parents requested a message from the parable of the Prodigal Son

    In my study there hangs a reproduction of a sixteenth century map. My son gave it to me several years ago. He knows that I have always liked maps. I like to look at maps, study maps, even sketch maps myself. There is something fulfilling about seeing how things are laid out, how streets and ...read more

    If our children are going to recognize God as loving and forgiving, they must see us practicing an expression and an experience of forgiveness ourselves.

    What Parents Owe Their Children: A Familiarity with Forgiveness As a parent, one of the most worrisome thoughts I’ve ever heard is this: As my children grow up and try to figure out who this mysterious person called “God” is, they will in large part base their impressions of who God is on who I ...read more

    When we encounter people on the street that obviously live there are we turned off by them? Are we turned off socially? Is our compassion turned off? Do we love these people? Or more importantly, does God love them?

    Does God Really Love These Things? Part 2 Does God Love Lost People? Sr. Pastor Taylor Free Methodist Church Let’s begin by answering the question, “Does God love lost people?” For God so loved the world that he gave one and only Son that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal ...read more

    BREAD IN MY FATHER’S HOUSE INTRODUCTION A preacher was once invited to an old aged home to conduct a service for the residents. He spent some time agonising over what he was to speak about.

    Never Unloved Series

     | 5,035 views

    Some receive love, but reject it; others never know that they are loved. In either case, the Cross is evidence that we have never been unloved.

    We need to think not only about the way we relate to other people, but also about how we receive them. It is not enough simply to be friendly and cordial. We also need to look at how we receive people when they extend themselves to us. I went to a meeting this week, where all the ...read more

    Coming Home On Father's Day

    Contributed by David Washburn on Jun 11, 2002
    based on 135 ratings
     | 46,457 views

    Father’s Day is a day to honor our father, our Heavenly Father. Jesus’ parable about the prodigal son is a pure reflection of a loving father and what it means to come home on Father’s Day.

    Dads, today is our day, but Father’s Day has somehow never been held in as high regard as Mother’s Day. Mother’s just have that certain something. After all, whenever you see someone holding a sign or mouthing “hello,” they’re saying, “Hi, Mom,” and usually not, “Hi Dad.” Now, I’m not complaining, ...read more
