    Although the main focus of the Prodigal Son parable is the ungracious brother, the assumptions made about the Prodigal’s father are enlightening.

    A responsible earthly father exhibits the characteristics and traits of fatherhood as set forth in the Word of the Heavenly Father.

    Text: “Honor your father and mother, that your days may be long in the land which the LORD your God gives” (Exodus 20:12). There are only two people I know about who did not have an earthly father and mother. Those people were Adam and Eve. Each one of us was brought into this world through the ...read more

    Sure you would go to the Prodigal’s party. Sure after he slept around, left his wife, spent all the money, you would accept him back completely. Or would you really?

    Salvation is much more than a one time experience, but a daily process of abiding in Christ.

    Series: Demands of Christ ABIDE IN ME John 15:1-11 One of the greatest misconceptions about the doctrine of salvation is that it is a one time event rather than a process. The apostle Paul speaks of salvation in past, present and the future. Past: Justification/Conversion: New ...read more

    If the devil can convince you that your core identity is a sinner then you will live and act like it for the rest of your life. He knows that your actions arise from your identity, so he will try to convince you that your identity arises from your action

    Review We have been examining what it means to “be” the family of God. The past couple of weeks and this week we are looking at what it means to be a child of God. I think that we are all a bit stumped when it comes to recognizing our identity as a child of God. We are used to seeing ourselves ...read more

    Years ago we went with Kathy’s parents to visit the Grand Canyon. It was beautiful and the sheer majesty of that sight took my breath away. So did the shortage of guardrails!

    Here’s a different look at the parable of the lost son from Luke 15. It’s a narrative sermon that focuses not as much on the lost son, but more on the rest of the story...the older brother’s reaction.

    The Older Brother 2/24/2008 AM By Matt Stidham for the Whitewright Church of Christ I’d like to begin by telling you a story this morning. This story is a pretty common family story...while you’re listening to this story, some of you might be able to think of a family you know that could very ...read more
