     | 2,066 views

    We please God as we allow God to make us “new creatures in Christ.”

    A few weeks ago I said, “We are always learning – formally and informally. We never stop learning something each and every day of our lives.” A key part of learning is thinking. One of the things that we do when we think is to create opinions about people, places, events, and even ourselves. We ...read more

    A Small Idea To Help Make You Big In Generosity

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Aug 9, 2006
    based on 3 ratings
     | 2,209 views

    Paul’s call here for the Corinthians to give generously provides a great idea for us to expand our giving.

    A Small Idea: “Set up a Generosity Fund.” - v. 2. - This passage is not about tithing to your church. It’s about a specific need in a specific church and the Corinthians choosing to give to help meet that need. Obviously, they were taking care of the needs of their own people as well, so this ...read more

    The Scientific Brilliance Of Genesis 1: A Second Helping

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jan 22, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,336 views

    One of the first sermons I wrote and posted for this site dealt with the scientific brilliance found in the first chapter of Genesis. There are other scientific standards found in this opening chapter of the inerrant and all-sufficient Word of God, and they are worth exploring and affirming.

    When I read the first chapter of Genesis, I do not see the development of an ancient myth or legend. I do not see the fruit of an overactive imagination of an anonymous sage trying to explain to his "backward" clan or tribe of how they came to be. I do not see any collection of ...read more

    based on 196 ratings
     | 52,863 views

    First in a series of "Purpose-Driven" messages. This one talks about why we are here; our purpose; and our ultimate value as Christians.

    All of us have questions about why we exist. I think the two most asked questions about our lives are: a) The question of reason - "Why am I here?" b) The question of value - "Do I really matter?" Now, if you go around asking different people these questions, you will get many different ...read more
