    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Mar 23, 2022
     | 2,221 views

    This morning let us strive to look at this story from a different angle as we give weight to the bitterness and indifference of the elder brother. Today we will focus on the hungry heart and the alienated heart.

    ECLIPSE OF THE HEART Text: Luke 15:1 - 3, 11-32 Luke 15: 1 -3, 11- 32  Now all the tax collectors and sinners were coming near to listen to him.  (2)  And the Pharisees and the scribes were grumbling and saying, "This fellow welcomes sinners and eats with them." ...read more

    Jesus uses 3 parables to tell what God's character is like. It is "grace". Some history of the culture from Ken Bailey is included. To the Pharisees “You think you know God, but you do not." Jesus is the God of Ezekiel 34.

    “The Parable of the Loving Father” Luke 15:1-3, 11b-32 So, Jesus was hanging out with the only crowd that ever seemed to want to hang out with Him.

    Being "re-Found"

     | 2,145 views

    Are you the rebellious son, lost and far from God? Are you the self-righteous Pharisee, no longer capable of rejoicing when a sinner returns to God?

    Luke 15:11-24 'And kill the calf we have been fattening. We must celebrate with a feast, for this son of mine was dead and has now returned to life. He was lost, but now he is found.’ (Luke 15:23, 24) Is Re-found really a word? Well, technically, no. But for this devotional and this lesson ...read more

    God loves us. He wants to shed His grace–His very divine life–on every human being.

    Saturday of the Second Week in Lent 2023 Every four weeks, those of us who pray the Church’s official morning prayer encounter Psalm 77, which is a lament by a temple Levite. Things are not going well for Israel, in this man’s view, and after reviewing all the awful things that have been ...read more

    The Joy Of Repentance

    Contributed by Richard Stevens on Mar 25, 2023
     | 1,309 views

    "....not knowing that the goodness of God leadeth thee to repentance?" God is loving, kind, good, and wants His very best for his children. There can (and is) be JOY in repentance!

    INTRODUCTION Romans 2:1-5 “Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit ...read more

    Slipping Down The Lifeline – But Not To The End (We Hope) Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Sep 17, 2022
     | 2,316 views

    There is the lifeline that connects our communion with the Lord but we can slip and fail, and so we slip down that lifeline of communion. Many of the great men of God failed but were wonderfully restored in the comfort of God. What can we lose as we slip? How do we return?

    SLIPPING DOWN THE LIFELINE – BUT NOT TO THE END (we hope) Tales are told of people in rescue attempts trying to hold on to a rope in the stormy sea or raging river and over time their grip lessens and through fatigue they slip further and further down the rescue rope until they disappear. That ...read more

    What Jesus Said About How God Feels About You Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Sep 30, 2022
     | 2,678 views

    Have you ever wondered about how God feels about you? There can be no more important thoughts that we have than the ones we have about God and how he feels about us.

    Have you ever wondered about how God feels about you? If you’re here this morning, I’ll bet you have. And it’s a terribly important subject. Once you understand God exists, and who He is—that He’s your Creator and the sustainer of your life and will, therefore, likely have some considerable say ...read more

    The Miserable Son And The Maddened Sibling

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Oct 24, 2022
     | 1,030 views

    Was the miserable son wasteful? Why did the father not punish the young son, if he deserved it? Was the maddened son self-centered and resentful?

    Verses 11 – 19: Was the miserable son wasteful? The young son’s portion of the property was 33% (Deuteronomy 21:17). By and large, he would have gotten this at his father’s death, although fathers in some cases decided to split their property early and resign from dealing with the estates. What is ...read more

     | 2,507 views

    The fifteenth chapter of Luke gives us a wealth of information about a certain Jewish family.

    For example, we know from this scripture: • “A certain man had two sons.” (v. 11) • The younger son seemed to be a problem child. Look at verse 12. We read, “And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me...” • -The younger son was ...read more

    He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Parable Of The Prodigal Son) # 8

     | 1,448 views

    Introduction: There is an old saying that we sometime quote as true, but we need to be careful quoting it, because it only contains part of the truth.

    The quote is, "You can always tell a man by the company he keeps." Can you? Always? No, this is not always the truth. For example, Jesus kept company with many that society had rejected. (1) HE KEPT COMPANY WITH LEPERS Now in first-century Palestine, lepers were viewed with horror ...read more
