    Choice is a gift from God, beginning with His decision to place the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the Garden of Eden. This gift was passed on to mankind, and the choices we make daily shape our future. God's gift of choice is a central theme in our lives, and understanding this can lead to a more fulfilling future.

    The topic of today's sermon is "Choice." Choice is something that originates from God. God made the choice to place the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the center of the garden, ensuring that Adam and Eve couldn't miss it. And God passed on this gift of choice to humanity. The choices we make ...read more

    When we make decisions according to a results model, we will find we have walked away from God’s plan and are lumbering down the path of ultimate destruction.

    Passage: 1 Samuel 8:1-22 Intro: Wouldn’t it be nice to know for certain the results of every decision we made, before we made it?! 1. college choice, career path, stock purchase, marriage partner, location, etc. 2. we are obsessed with results, and the marketing community knows this. ...read more

    A message that shows how people of all times are just like us today. We are all driven by our pasts to make decisions today that will affect our futures tomorrow.

    There were two men out in the country hunting one day when all of a sudden they came upon a very large grizzly bear. They could instantly tell that the bear was looking for lunch. And so, they began to run with all their might. While they were running away from the bear, one of them yelled ...read more

    Jesus Always Follows "Kingdom Rules” Series

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on May 9, 2017
     | 8,660 views

    This is the third message in the series on Faith. There are rules that govern how we are to live in the kingdom of God and they should be – no, must be – the foundation for how we think and how we make decisions.

    Growing in faith is a process. Sometimes I think we forget that. When we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we are born into a kingdom that we know very little about. That’s why we must grow in our knowledge and understanding of “kingdom rules” if we are to properly live and function in our new ...read more

    Criteria for wise decision-making

    We all have to make many decisions every day. The most difficult decisions fall in basically three categories: is it a good decision; is there a better way of doing something; is it the best decision that I can make right now. It is amazing how many people choose good things that actually become ...read more

    Some people can't make up their mind and by doing that, they have already made a decision.

    Former president Ronald Reagan once had an aunt who took him to a cobbler for a pair of new shoes. The cobbler asked young Reagan, "Do you want square toes or round toes?" Unable to decide, Reagan didn't answer, so the cobbler gave him a few days. Several days later the cobbler saw Reagan on the ...read more

    Ordering My Steps In His Word

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Jan 6, 2024
     | 5,979 views

    Every January many of us make decisions to change our lives in the upcoming year. For me, this year will be a re-emphasis on ordering my life according to God's Word.

    I’ve been thinking about this year and the plans that the Lord has on the drawing board for me and for you. I understand clearly that He has a plan for me, I also understand that He can’t “download” the plan into my spirit, and ultimately, my life if I am not ready to receive it and walk in it. ...read more
