    If the Prodigal Son could sit down and talk with you today, I'm sure it would start with the declaration "If I Knew Then What I Know Now"...

    What if when the prodigal son came home from the hog pen, he found that his father & brother had sold the farm? Today's churches have sold out their original fire and zeal. Will your prodigals find the same church they left?

    DON'T SELL THE FARM! Luke 15:11-20 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Harvey is an old widower living in a convalescent home. Attending social functions there, he met Martha, a widow, and slowly fell in love with her. 2. After a Bingo game, he finally got up the nerve to ask her to marry him. She said, ...read more

     | 3,970 views

    Did Jesus resort to using allegory as a clever ruse so as to keep things hidden? On the contrary! Jesus resorted to using parables so that the listener could better understand “the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven” [Matthew 13:11].

    Parable Of The Perfect Father

     | 23,783 views

    Jesus' Parable of the Prodigal Son teaches us how to treat others: with freemdom to make mistakes, with forgiveness in second chances, and with favor out of unconditional love. God is the perfect Father, showing us all three. (Father's Day message)

    Luke 15:11-32 Parable of the Perfect Father Today’s story is probably my favorite in the Bible. I’ve shared it with you before, but never in the context of Father’s Day. Since the real hero of the story is the father, I thought it might be a good story to look at today. Let’s consider some gifts ...read more

    The Makings Of A Good Dad

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jun 19, 2017
     | 12,507 views

    For Mother's Day my sermon was, "The Makings of A Good Mom" so it's only fitting that I do the same for Father's Day. Quote: "It only takes a minute to be a father but it takes a lifetime to be a dad." What are some things that make a good dad?

    THE MAKINGS OF A GOOD DAD Contrast between TV dads of the 50's and those of today. Back then Dad was portrayed as the leader, the guider; he was admired. Today, dads are portrayed as inept, clueless and irresponsible. Modern-day TV oftentimes portrays the dad as being more like an additional ...read more
