    If God Wills

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Jan 1, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,044 views

    Many live under the illusion that we'll be able to live the good life with the right strategy, the proper techniques, and enough discipline. The reality? James says we are not in control of our lives.

    Opening: One day, a young man saw a sign at a restaurant that said, "Free Lunch Tomorrow." The next day he brought his friends to have lunch at the restaurant. When they finished eating, a waiter came to him with the bill of $100 to pay. He was surprised and didn't want to pay. He ...read more

    The Rate Of Exchange

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Aug 10, 2021
     | 2,567 views

    Jesus made it clear that you can gain everything the world has to offer, but it rusts, wears out, turns to dust, and you cannot take it with you after you die. If you lose your soul, however, you lose your life for eternity.

    Humanity in its natural state really does not place much value on life, preferring to love death (Proverbs 8:36) in the form of abortions, murders, manslaughter, varied stages and types of physical, emotional, and mental abuse, and a placing on some individuals and groups a stigma of ...read more

    Have you ever stopped for a minute and looked closely at your life? If you have, you might have concluded that "I have a lot going on." In this day and time, who doesn't? After asking that question, the next step should be to ask yourself the question, "What matters most?"

    Unexpected Events (Part 1) Series

     | 5,927 views

    Pivotal events can happen unexpectedly in our lives. If we are able to accept that fact and (at the same time) trust God with the changes that accompany those events, we will manage life better. This message explores unexpected events in Moses's life.

    Today I want to talk about two unexpected events in Moses’s life. One was a glorious encounter with God that set him on the course for the last 40 years of his life. The other was a painful experience that equipped him to fulfill the mission given to him in the first encounter. In both cases the ...read more

    Tomorrow Is Not Yours

    Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on May 23, 2022
     | 3,831 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

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jun 5, 2022
     | 2,567 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. Imagine doing the following, and you will see how daily life is for as many as a ...read more

    A Warning That Bears Repeating

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 10, 2022
     | 1,947 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

     | 2,651 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. Our Gospel today mentions two people who suffered from “First World Problems.” 1). “Teacher, tell my ...read more

    Therefore, Do Not Be Anxious!

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Feb 11, 2021
     | 4,315 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

    "I” Trouble

     | 1,968 views

    Have you ever had “I” trouble? What can cause “I” trouble? Three things come to mine: Displacement, Distraction, and Distortion.

    Luke 12:13-21  Someone in the crowd said to him, “Teacher, tell my brother to divide the inheritance with me.”  (14)  But he said to him, “Man, who made me a judge or arbitrator over you?”  (15)  And he said to them, “Take care, and be on your guard against all ...read more

    The Reality Of The Treasure Series

     | 2,775 views

    This is the first of four messages looking at the Parable of the Foolish Rich Man. It was part of our annual Money Month

    When you think of a treasure, what crosses your mind? Perhaps something buried by a pirate? When I was a boy, when I thought about treasure, I thought about Jim Hawkins and Long John Silver from Robert Louis Stevenson’s novel “Treasure Island”. By the way, Long John Silver was the ship’s cook, not ...read more

    This sermon is adapted from Andy Stanley's book "Enemies of the Heart." It is about the idol of greed and how the habit of generosity overthrows it.

    It Came From Within: Greed Introduction Luke 12:15-21 NIV 15 Then he said to them, “Watch out! Be on your guard against all kinds of greed; life does not consist in an abundance of possessions.” 16 And he told them this parable: “The ground of a certain rich man yielded an abundant ...read more

     | 3,726 views

    A poor man brought the first fruits of his land in a sack during famine for Elisha, but God multiplied that to feed 100 men and probably more. This miracle shows the abundance of God. God is no man’s debtor. Lovely Story.
