    Funeral for a fellow pastor who was admired by his family, his church and colleagues in ministry. He had been widowed and then remarried. Both spouses have a place in the message.

    Adrian Lynum. God has given us the honor and privilege of celebrating the life of one of his children whose life has ended well. The mind of God is a fascinating place to behold dreams that we would never think of putting into place. Who but ...read more

    Are You Worshiping Nature Or The Creator?

    Contributed by John Hickman on Oct 22, 2013

     | 7,500 views

    Is our culture today worshiping "Mother Nature" instead of the Creator? Jesus went out into God's Creation to hear from God, to pray, to be refreshed and recharged for ministry. Shouldn't we be doing the same?

    One hundred years before the birth of Jesus a Roman Philosopher, Cicero, wrote, “Nature herself makes the wise man rich.” The poet Ralph Waldo Emerson said that “Nature never hurries. Atom by atom, little by little she achieves her work.” Antoinette Brown Blackwell wrote ...read more

    Jesus’ healing of the man born blind forced his disciples to rethink their theology, forced his neighbors to rethink their perception of him as victim, and forces us to rethink our posture toward healing ministries.

    Have you noticed that when you get sick, you get sick all over? When some part of your body isn’t up to par, then the whole person, the whole self, feels bad. When we get sick, we get sick all over. Now you may speak of having an upset stomach, but it’s really an upset you. The physician might ...read more

    “You must be patient in all the suffering that God sends you. If your love for the Lord is pure, you will love Him as much on Calvary as on Mt. Tabor." -Jeanne Guyon

    “Contrary to what might be expected, I look back on experiences that at the time seemed especially desolating and painful with particular satisfaction. Indeed, I can say with complete truthfulness that everything I have learned in my 75 years in this world, everything that has truly enhanced and ...read more

    We as modern disciples are an extension of Jesus’ ministry. We are witnesses to the same real relationship with Jesus that the disciples had. We have his power so that we can touch lives and affect eternity.

    Has anyone ever told you something so outrageous or so unbelievable that you thought you couldn’t believe it unless you saw it for yourselves? Have you ever seen anything that was so unbelievable that it was scary? If so, then you can understand how the disciples felt after they saw the risen ...read more

    I have done a lot of thinking about the problem of how to evaluate your own success in the ministry. We can say that we shouldn’t compare ourselves to others. That’s true, but we do it anyway.

    Grumblers Anonymous Matthew 20:1-16 (I preached this sermon at the Spring Bible Conference at New Brunswick Bible Institute, April 26-29, 2007. The conference ended with the graduation ceremonies. This message was part of my series on the parables of Jesus.) I want to make a few predictions ...read more

    Dealing With Doubt

     | 10,103 views

    When it comes to Chris-tian truth, God doesn't want us to be skeptics, but I don't think He wants us to be gullible either. In fact, our faith can be strengthened when we ask tough questions and even when we struggle with doubts.

    Some people are natural skeptics. My Grandfather was one. When man first landed on the moon in July of 1969 and the TV pictures came back from the lunar surface, my Grandpa thought it was all being faked. He figured those pictures were coming from a desert somewhere in Arizona. Sometimes he was a ...read more

    3 of 6. The apostle Peter encouraged the Churches to bolster/strengthen their faith in Christ, in order to provide an abundant entrance to God’s kingdom. God’s people are obligated to further their faith. ?What does ‘Furthering Your Faith’ involve or entail? Furthering Your Faith involves...

    Don’t let failure robs us of faith in God. Develop your faith in God through a lifestyle of prayer and communion with God.

    Failure has a great impact in our lives. Once beaten, twice shy. • When we failed, we are hit by discouragement, fear and even doubts, that we can ever succeed. • That makes the second or third attempt more difficult. Put ourselves in the shoes of the father for a moment. • He was a worried ...read more

    This sermon focuses on how to hear the Holy Spirit’s voice, recognize the ways He speaks, and respond to His leading. It highlights how the Spirit guides us in every area of life and ministry when we are open to His promptings.

    Throughout the Bible, we see a consistent truth: God speaks. He speaks through creation, through His Word, and through His Son. But one of the most profound ways God communicates with us today is through the Holy Spirit. The Spirit of God, living within each believer, is actively speaking, guiding, ...read more

    Everything you’re going through is preparing you for what you prayed for. God answers prayers through challenges that build the strength, wisdom, and character to sustain His blessings. Trust that every delay and struggle is part of His plan to equip you for what’s ahead.

    Everything You Are Going Through Is Preparing You for What You Prayed For It’s one of those truths that’s easy to say but hard to live out—especially when life feels like it’s falling apart.

    Just like a natural family with parents, children, and siblings, the church family is God’s idea. God knew that people would need help along the way as they struggle against an unseen enemy. It is a privilege and a blessing to belong to a spiritual family
