    Contributed by Ken Sauer on May 1, 2024
     | 2,717 views

    A sermon about priorities.

    “Where Can I Put My Stuff?” Luke 12:13-21 In a monologue, a comedian talks about our obsession with the accumulation of material possessions, and the modern anxiety for which it is both the cause and result: “You got your stuff with you?” he asks his audience. “Guys have stuff in their ...read more

    Hoarder Or Steward? Series

     | 3,937 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

    Contributed by Mary Erickson on Mar 30, 2022
     | 1,603 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
     | 3,489 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

    The Heaven Scenario. 1 Corinthians 2:9NKJV Listen, listen. It was late I was sitting around the dying embers of the campfire when I heard a noise.

    Professing To Be Wise, They Became Fools

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Aug 22, 2023
     | 1,737 views

    Atheism is on the rise in America. That is a fact that cannot be rebutted. However, in its claim to be wiser and more "enlightened" that those of us who believe in God, atheism has dragged America into a sewer of ignorance.

    Current statistics tell us that when asked about their religious affiliation or practice, 38% of Americans who were surveyed replied, "None". The category of "None" when it comes to basic beliefs about God and the Bible are rising higher each year. For those of us who are ...read more

    The real fools are those who, being satisfied with their lives as they are, forget God, forget their neighbors, and forget their mortality.

    What is wrong with this picture? Imagine that you are in the audience that long-ago day in Judea, listening to Jesus preach. There are thousands in the crowd, but you got there early. In fact, you waited all night to get a good seat. Jesus’ reputation has grown all over Palestine, and people have ...read more

    In Terms Of Eternity

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 11, 2023
     | 1,550 views

    The Bible teaches that after death (Hebrews 9:27), we will face judgment and enter eternity, either heaven or hell. Consider what that means and how it should motivate us to spread the Gospel in these last days.

    The Bible teaches that from the moment we are conceived, we are destined to live forever (Psalm 61:7; Daniel 12:2; Matthew 25:46: Romans 2:7). The LORD God Almighty saw fit to create us, give us meaning, a purpose, and conscience to use for His glory and our benefit (Psalm 73:25-28; Romans ...read more

    Hubris Or Humility Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Sep 16, 2024
     | 820 views

    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

    What You Have Defines Your Worth Series

    Contributed by Duane Wente on Jul 14, 2025
     | 861 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.

    This is a Bible study lesson, not a sermon. The Bible studies teach foundational truth that are designed to challenge, encourage and, most importantly, flame the fire of hunger in the Christian who wants to learn more about who they have become in Christ Jesus.
