    Today’s text is about the stewardship of your soul. Have you been saved or is salvation like a taxi cab ride? There is a relationship beyond your baptism because as it has been said, “your baptism is like a wedding ring”.

    WHERE WILL YOU BE WHEN THE DOOR CLOSES? Text: Matthew 25:1 - 13 The story is told of neighbors having a conversation. The “…were talking over the back fence. “I went to a wedding this weekend,” said one, “but I don’t think the marriage will last.” “Why Not?” asked the other. “well when ...read more

    Most of us are too spiritual to think of eventualities in our planning thereby neglect taking precautions. The foolish five couldn’t go with the Groom because they refused to take precaution even when they saw others did. Wisdom is the principal thing!

    The story of the ten virgins in the book of Matthew 25:1-13 comes with a load of lessons and several sermons have been preached and are still being preached on it. Our focus today anyways is a critical look at the five that the Bible tagged “fool” among the ten virgins. What were ...read more

    Fifth in this series. The Parable of the Ten Virgins shows that I cannot live on someone else's oil.

    I still remember my first date with Mary. I know that she was really impressed when I picked her up in my banana yellow Ford Pinto, especially since it was the middle of summer and that car had no air conditioning – unless you call rolling down both windows and driving as fast as that car ...read more

    Our primary duty as Christians is to persevere diligently in the faith, despite mixed motivations, temptations to procrastinate, to fail to prioritize, or to wisely interpret daily invents in terms of the permanent rather than the temporary.

    This parable challenges us to make sure we are prepared at all times to meet God. Whether via the Second Coming or at our death, we need to be ready. Not a good idea to be unprepared for His coming.

    A first-person narrative on the Parable of the Ten Virgins.

    Your pastor thought of giving me a name like Marsha or Morgan but it’s better that you just remember me as “moron” for that is what Jesus called me and that is what I am. Because of my short-sightedness and sloppy preparation I wound up missing a scrumptious wedding banquet. You ...read more
