    We’re heading into the Christmas season, and in a few weeks we’ll be looking at gifts under the Christmas tree. What was the best or worst Christmas gift that you remember?

    How many of you can remember a Christmas gift that you wanted, oh, so badly? Illustration: For me, one of the best gifts ever came to me way back in 1967 when I was in grade school. There was a toy truck called the “Johnny Express (TM) that I wanted so bad, I could taste it (a figure of speech we ...read more

     | 20,476 views

    As we follow where God leads us, we encounter trials and struggles, but that's part of the plan! God uses those trials to shape and mold us into the people He desires for us to become… but most importantly, so His glory can be revealed to the world!

    For the message this morning, we’re going to go back to the book of Exodus... and we’re going to look at a real historical event that will be very familiar to most of you… The crossing of the Red Sea. Since this story IS very familiar to us already, we must be careful not to just read through it ...read more

    Introduction To Psalms Series

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Feb 22, 2020
     | 6,274 views

    This is the introduction to a series of studies on selected Psalms, developed from a series of classes. This sermon does not examine a particular psalm, but makes observations about psalms in general.

    In my personal studies I have found psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had ever realized. Too often I have swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as I should into the depths of meaning and feeling that are expressed by the psalmists. Upon ...read more

    Psalm 23 is perhaps the most well-known Psalm. It's often quoted at funerals. Although you may be familiar with it, have you ever really studied it? That's what we're going to do today and next week. Let's see what we can learn David's 23rd Psalm.

    THE LORD IS MY SHEPHERD (part one) Psalm 23:1-3 In his book, I Shall Not Want, Robert Ketchum tells about a Sunday school teacher who asked her group if any of them could quote the twenty-third psalm.

    Both Matthew 27:45 and Mark 15:33 tells us that as Jesus was hanging on the cross darkness covered the land. Then Matthew 27:46 and Mark 15:34 quote Jesus as asking, “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?”

    "My God, My God ,why have you forsaken me." Matt. 27:46; Mark 15:34 The fourth word of Jesus from the cross discloses a sense of hope when we remember the whole psalm from which it comes. Psalm 22 does indeed begin with desperation: “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you ...read more

    One may browse through a hundred news articles a day or reflect on the situations facing humanity with great trembling. And one may reflect back upon history to consider how history repeats itself.
