    Where is God when bad things happen? Are people who die in calamities and atrocities just getting what they deserve? Let’s discuss time and chance, and God giving us one last chance to repent. Let’s look at what Jesus said in Luke 13:1-9.

    Who do bad things happen to good people? There are no easy answers; yet Jesus teaches there is not always a direct link between misfortune and sin. And every calamity is a wake-up all for all of us.

    Luke 13:1-9 Debunking the Just World Theory [Please contact me at kerry.n.haynes@gmail.com for sermon outline in Word.] In a “Calvin and Hobbes” comic strip sometime back, Calvin says to his dad, “Why can't I stay up late?

    Nobody Is Better Than Anybody

    When we are faced with someone who thinks they are better than we are we try to rise above this through the reassurance that we would never treat anyone else the way they treat us. But with that kind of attitude, are we really any better?

    At one point in our lives, I am sure that we have all have come across someone that has an “I am better than everyone else, especially you” mentality. I myself have encountered this kind of attitude at multiple points throughout my life. I have experience it in the food service industry in which I ...read more

    The Blessings Of Hardships

    Contributed by Fr. Rian Adams on Aug 26, 2019
     | 6,055 views

    Jesus said he came to, "send fire on the earth." This sermon takes a unique approach on this idea and uses the fire metaphor as a purging of the things inside us that hinder us from becoming who we can be through God.

    The Blessing of Hardships Since this Gospel reading is intense, I thought I’d begin by admitting something kind of funny about it. When I read it this week, I pictured Jesus at a Charlie Daniels concert singing, “Fire on the mountain run boys run.” It also made me wonder, “… how am I supposed ...read more

    The Big Idea: Repentance is the gateway to holiness. Lent is a time of contemplation; turning—or returning—to God.

    King Frederick II, King of Prussia in the eighteenth-century, once visited a prison in Berlin. The inmates there tried to convince him they were unjustly imprisoned; that is, all of them but one. That one sat quietly in a corner, while the rest protested their innocence. Seeing him sitting there ...read more

    Because God never gives up on us, we too must never give up

    The Lies We Believe

     | 7,475 views

    There are phrases we’ve heard and used over the years that are not true even though we use them as if they were.

    This morning, we’re going to talk about the “The Lies (L-I-E-S) That We Believe “ And the reason I titled it “The Lies We Believe” is because that’s what the Lord told me to title it. (Laughter) Stephen and I were watching a program on ESPN called “30-30” which looks at the history of athletics ...read more

    Jesus shared with his audience then and his congregation today that life is not always a rose garden. Life is not a dress rehearsal. Some who are open to the gospel are often rejected by those who oppose it and sometimes they are family members.
