     | 2,659 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 is part two of a four part series on this passage. It looks at how we deal with the treasure God has entrusted us with.

    His dignity was stripped little by little from Him.

    The Tenth Station: Jesus Stripped of His Garments (Those of us who have had the privilege and honor of a pilgrimage to the Holy Land always make Jerusalem part of the holy time.

  • The Fear Of God - The Missing Foundation In Modern Christianity Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 17, 2020
     | 3,606 views

    In this day of "fluff and icing", "feel good", "me-centered" beliefs, sermons, and teachings, the church in this present age has, for all practical purposes, abandoned the call for holiness and separation from the world.

    We who call ourselves followers of Jesus Christ in these last days have, for all practical purposes, allowed the world to tell us what to think and say when it comes to the authority of the Scriptures, the person and work of Jesus, God's nature, and the coming judgment upon this wicked and ...read more

  • Therefore, Do Not Be Anxious!

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Feb 11, 2021
     | 4,174 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

     | 3,618 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
     | 2,390 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

     | 2,012 views

    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
     | 1,853 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

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,540 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

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jun 28, 2022
     | 1,816 views

    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.

     | 3,012 views

    This is the 3rd message in a series called Perspectives and this message is about looking at life with God's perspective, rather than with our own.

    Hello and welcome back to another message on ‘Perspectives!’ This is the third message, and today I am dealing with the topic of ‘life’ itself. If you were to say to me, “How is life?” I’d say it’s wonderful, and for that I give praise to God. The question, “What is life?” has been asked by so many ...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

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 7, 2021
     | 5,710 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
