    Now, if you were in the shoes of these parents, which of the babysitters will you hire the next time?

    26A There were two sisters who worked as babysitters in their community. A young couple had recently moved into the neighborhood. They hired the younger of the two sisters to babysit their children. Imagine their surprise when they returned to find their home a complete mess, with their kids ...read more

    The Parable Of The Mom And Two Children

    The Parable of the Two Sons retold in a modern way for children. This is set up as a play, but can easily be told as a story or sermon illustration. The modern context helps create a gateway for children to see themselves in the story.

    The Parable of the Mom and Two Children Narrator: There once was a Mom who had two children (The mom walks out and waves to people). Narrator: Her oldest daughter, Emily, loves sports (The reader pauses and lets Emily walk out. They wait five seconds. She walks out and waves to the ...read more

    Another look at the authority of Jesus and the authority of Holy Scripture

    Weekend Message/Devotion January 28, 2018 Reading: Mark 1:21-28 The Holy One of God We don’t get very far in this reading until we are met with Jesus;’ encounter with a demon possessed man in the synagogue, there in Capernaum, right along with all the worshippers.

    The Ones “go” And The Ones Who Don’t “go”

    Some say they will obey God and don't, Others resist, then go. The Jews in Jesus day did not think they had to obey Jesus so they did not go to work in the vineyard. No serving when you should is a failure.

    The Ones “Go” and The Ones Who Don’t “Go” Kelly Durant Matthew 21:28 “But what do you think? A man had two sons, and he came to the first and said, ‘Son, go, work today in my vineyard.’ 29 He answered and said, ‘I will not,’ but ...read more

    STEW, CONTINUAL STATE OF SUPPRESSED AGITATION and WORRY. Many people in our churches are not thankful as they are too busy stewing? A skunk may claim to be a cat, but the smell will tell.

    STEW: THE SMELL WILL TELL. By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com TEXT: Matthew 21:19 And when he saw a fig tree in the way, he came to it, and found nothing thereon, but leaves only, and said unto it, Let no fruit grow on thee henceforward for ever.

    No Priests In The Church?

    Did Jesus intend the office of Priest to be included in the New Testament Church? If not, why not?

    Matthew 21:23-27 “Jesus entered the temple courts, and, while He was teaching, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to Him. ‘By what authority are you doing these things?’ they asked. ‘And who gave You this authority?’ “Jesus replied, ‘I ...read more

    The Romans and many Jews wanted nothing more than to see this heretic gone, once and for all. They had enough of His insurrection. But, little did they realize, that He would NEVER be gone. In a few days, He would rock the world forever!

    Sermon # 43 - Know God's Will And Do God's Work Series

    There are two groups of people that Jesus spoke about. One who may initially reject God, but later repent and truly turn to God. The other group are those who claim to follow Jesus, but are dichotomous and far from doing the will of God. The question is, ‘Where do we stand?’

    We read in Proverbs 22:29, “Do you see a person who is efficient in his work? He will serve kings. He will not serve unknown people.”(GW) When a person gets a good job, their entry to that job is only the first step. Their goal should be to fulfill the expectations of their superiors, and to ...read more

    The Life And Death Struggles Series

     | 2,012 views

    Today we are in a struggle like that between Moses and Balak, or between Jesus and the religious authorities, a battle to the death between God’s people and a pagan secular culture.

    Homily for Monday in 3rd Week of Advent Balaam was a prophet for hire. He was a wealthy and respected prophet of Yahweh, but he was not an Israelite. Balak, a king who was in the way of Israel as they moved toward the Promised Land, was nervous about all these people moving across his territory. ...read more

    Jesus tells us four things about how we're supposed to serve in the Kingdom of God. He tells WHO is to serve, HOW we're to serve, WHEN we're supposed to serve, and WHERE we're supposed to serve. Which Son are you?

    SON, GO WORK TODAY IN MY VINEYARD Matt. 21:28-31 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: Lazy Son Chinese Proverbs 1. The Chinese have several proverbs about lazy sons. One says they “Mend the fence after the sheep are lost,” which means taking action too late or only so as to not repeat a misfortune. 2. ...read more

    No, It's Not Fair, But Bear With It In Christ

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Sep 28, 2023
     | 975 views

    Forget the old song that asks “how can it be wrong when it feels so right?” That’s unmitigated baloney. Your mind must rule your emotions, not vice-versa.

    Twenty-Sixth Sunday in Course 2023 Have you or anyone you know ever said that some fine or traffic ticket or concert ticket price or something else “isn’t fair”? I suspect that a show of hands would involve almost everyone who is here today. That cry, “it’s not fair!” is one of the most common ...read more

    The first son who "refused" to work, eventually did. The second son who "agreed" to work, later decided not to. Those expected to do great things for God can sometimes fail; whereas, those least expected can be used in a mighty way.

    Have you ever felt God asking you to do some type of ministry that you believed was beyond your capabilities, and then you became reluctant? Did you say to yourself, “I’m never going to do that?” This is the way many people respond to the Lord’s call on their life. I’ve heard it said you should ...read more
