This is a topical message related to worship. I want to examine the worship-related action of falling face down before the Lord in response to His glorious presence. This message ties into Matt Redman's book entitled "Face Down."
This evening I am going to be sharing a topical message related to worship. I want us to examine the worship-related action of falling face down before the Lord; so, I have entitled our sermon/Bible study, “Worshipping Face Down.” The title of our message is also found in a book on worship called ...read more

In the year 2001, they had a commercial on television where two campers were walking toward their camp site, and they saw a bear looting their camp and eating their food.
They started running toward the bear hollering, “Bad Bear! Bad Bear!” The bear raised up on its back legs, and it appeared to be around 7 or 8 feet tall. They realized that they had made a serious mistake by approaching the bear. Needless to say, both of them were frightened. One of them picked up ...read more
Scripture: Luke 15:11-32
Often when we face the difficulties of life, we try to make sense out of what we are facing. But what frustrates us at times like this is that IT DOES NOT MAKE SENSE!
For example, when the terrorists struck the Trade Towers in New York City, and the Pentagon, on Sept. 11, 2001, the pundits put their heads together and tried to make sense of why anyone would want to kill thousands of innocent people. They could only reach the conclusion that Osama Bin Laden and ...read more
The greatest gift we could ever receive is the gift of salvation through Jesus Christ.
When it comes to Christmas there is always an expectancy to hear the Christmas message to hear the prophecy of Isaiah and Luke’s account. These have become staples in the church this time of the year. But since this is the Sunday Night crowd and as I look out among you I am confident that you know ...read more
Scripture: Matthew 7:7-11
In the sermons dealing with the attributes of God we have talked about the fact that God is love, jealous, immutable, holy, omniscient, and omnipresent.
Today, as we continue to search the scriptures to know more about the God of the Bible, we want to focus our attention on God's omnipotence. What do we mean when we say that GOD IS OMNIPOTENT? • We mean that the God of the Bible HAS ALL POWER! • We mean that His power is not limited as ...read more
Scripture: Daniel 3:10-28
Some people spend their lives propping up dumb idols that consume their time and resources. This message tackles the golden hemorrhoids account and shows how idolatry can be a real pain. We must give it to God to receive healing.
This morning we’re going to look at a passage of Scripture that I have struggled with for many years; one that I have read time and again, and I couldn’t figure out how to apply it spiritually. It’s probably one that many of you have read before and came away feeling perplexed. But lately the Lord ...read more
Scripture: 1 Samuel 5:1-12
This message looks at some tactics the enemy will use to discredit God's people. We can fight back through prayer. Daniel actually stood for his faith while on his knees in prayer.
In our second message from this series, I mentioned how when we live according to biblical principles, working “as to the Lord and not to men” (Colossians 3:23), that we will receive God’s favor and be promoted to a place of prominence. I also cautioned that those who are favored by God are hated ...read more

Are things like horoscopes and astrology ok? Are things like Ouija boards and holding séances just harmless fun? What does God think about psychics and fortune tellers? Let's find out.
PSYCHIC NOT-LINE I watched a crime show recently that featured a palm reader who was taking advantage of people and manipulating them out of their money. In one case she ended up getting over a million dollars from this elderly woman. It's sad. But unfortunately it's not uncommon for ...read more

First John 1:5-2:2 shows us what is involved in having fellowship with God.
Scripture I recently started a sermon series on the Letters of John. False teaching was infiltrating the churches in the region of Ephesus for which the Apostle John was responsible. The false teachers were teaching that they had a knowledge of God that was available only to the spiritual elite. ...read more

Why did Elisha insist (3 times) to go with Elijah to his fiery chariot ride... but all of the "sons of the Prophets" insisted on standing some distance away?
(I opened the sermon by leading the congregation in an old hymn called "If Jesus Goes With Me I'll Go Anywhere". And then ended the sermon by singing the first verse and chorus with them again). In 1936, a 17 year old Bob Feller became a pitcher for the Cleveland Indians, and he ...read more
Scripture: 2 Kings 2:1-18
So, let’s push aside everything we have read on the internet about faith, put the secular books down that make an attempt to define Christian faith, and let’s take hold of a different understanding of faith from what the world describes.
After taking a week off from our series last Sunday to celebrate Mother’s Day, we return today.

Scripture: Hebrews 11:1-6, Isaiah 26:3
Worship is a big deal: Cain killed his brother, Abel. Moses asked Pharaoh for some time to away in the wilderness to worship. Ancient Jewish families would bring animals to Jerusalem for the purpose of worship. And Jesus turned over the tables in the Temple because they were ruining worship.
Your worship is a big deal to you personally. Worship is a big deal down throughout history. Think about the importance of worship down through the ages: Cain killed his brother, Abel, over worship in Genesis 4. Moses asked Pharaoh for some time to away in the wilderness so the children of Israel ...read more

Ephesians 2:8-10 (ESV) 8 For by grace you have been saved through faith.
