    Contributed by John Lowe on Dec 8, 2019
     | 2,425 views

    I am amazed at the way educated people in America flock to see and hear gurus and other Eastern spiritual leaders whose teaching cannot change the human heart.

    1/2/19 Tom Lowe IVD2 WHILE HAVING APPEARANCES OF WISDOM, SUCH PRACTICES HAVE NO VALUE (COL. 2:23) Scripture: Colossians 2:23 (NIV) Such regulations indeed have an appearance of wisdom, with their self-imposed worship, their false humility and their harsh treatment of the body, but they lack ...read more

    Notice in verse 8…That night, in a field near Bethlehem,… Many scholars believe that these could be the same fields where sacrificial flocks were kept for temple worship.

    Laughing In the Woods Luke 2:8-12TPT Luke 2:8-12TPT That night, in a field near Bethlehem, there were shepherds watching over their flocks. 9 Suddenly, an angel of the Lord appeared in radiant splendor before them, lighting up the field with the blazing glory of God, and the shepherds were ...read more

    Jesus doesn't just plant the seeds of the kingdom and then disappear. He sticks with us for the long haul. He nurtures the seeds of faith and helps us to grow.

    Don't you just love a baptism? You have the beautiful little baby, the parents and God parents making promises to both child and God. And you have the water and the word. God promising to adopt this child into his family and make him or her his own. There's a lot of stuff going on ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Mar 10, 2023
     | 1,624 views

    Paul was under obligation to preach the unashamed gospel that was God’s authority for salvation. We look at human decline and wickedness that is in society today; the suppression of truth and the wrath of God.

    Romans 1:8-18 PAUL UNDER OBLIGATION AND THOSE WHO SUPPRESS THE TRUTH – Romans Message 2 [1]. FAITH THAT IS WIDELY DISTRIBUTED {{Romans 1 v 8 “Firstly, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for you all because YOUR FAITH is being proclaimed throughout the whole world,”}} We are continuing the ...read more

    9th in long series on Joshua, 2nd of 2 on mass circumcision in ch.5. This deals with being a part of a family, using the well-used illustration of a flock of geese.

    Joshua 5:1-9 – Family Ties (Nowheres near an original thought, but good nonetheless...) Today I’d like to do something different. Today’s a bit different from most, so I’m putting a twist on my scripture today, out of the ordinary for me anyway. Let’s read Joshua 5:1-9. So the Israelites ...read more

    Paul’s concern that his flock are being deceived, and the deceptions we face today. This was preached on Bible Sunday, so ends with and emphasis on the Bible as the way to avoid being deceived.

    Do not be decieved - Colossians 2:1-5 Deception Paul is worried. He is struggling for the believers at Collosae and Laodicea. There are some new ideas being spoken about.

    Christians have the opportunity, just as they did during the plagues and epidemics of history, to distinguish themselves from the world. It is the Preacher’s responsibility to lead the flock during this pandemic for that very purpose.

    TITLE: TRUSTING GOD SCRIPTURE: EPHESIANS 3:14-21 There are several things I want to address in this morning’s message that don’t necessarily all flow together very smoothly. But I think that’s okay. If you find anything these days that’s flowing together smoothly, please let me know. In this ...read more

    What did King David, who was known as a man with a heart for God, do to nurture his relationship with the Father? Sought God through learning, worship, prayer and obedience.

    One thing I ask… Intimacy with God 4/28/02 By Brad Dyrness If we really sing what we live, our hymn titles we sing would read something like this:  Instead of showers…"THERE SHALL BE SPRINKLES OF BLESSING"  Instead of telling… "I LOVE TO MUMBLE THE STORY"  Not soldiers but ...read more

    God's Plan For Families

     | 28,241 views

    Families are a place where: 1. We learn to glorify God and live for him. 2. We receive love and nurturing. 3. We learn about values and character.

    The American Family is being totally redefined today. It can mean almost anything, and anyone who thinks that it should mean one man, one woman and the children that God may bless them with is seen as someone who is out of step, and even a threat to the culture. Family may mean one man and one ...read more

    The Children of Israel begin the period of the Judges well, but begin to neglect their relationship with God and this leads to defeat, much as the Christian who does not nurture that relationship with exist in the weakened flesh.

    When I was in junior high a Catholic priest came to visit my debate class. I know, today a visit to a public school by a religious official would warrant calling out the SWAT team and raising the terror alert to red, but it was a different nation in those days. Anyway, I remember this gentleman ...read more

    We respond to God’s grace and nurture our relationship with God by observing a day of rest. The world can get along without our involvement (for a day).

    Exodus 20:3-11 “The Gift of Rest” INTRODUCTION We have a problem. A lack of sleep among the U.S. workforce is costing approximately $411 billion and losing 1.2 million working days per year, a new study has found.

    Christian Follow-Up

    A new believer is tender and needs to be nurtured for spiritual growth. When such is not done it may affect the faith of the believer or tell on him if he grows without the rudiments of the Christian faith.

    THEME- POPULATING GOD’S KINGDOM TOPIC- FOLLOW UP TEXT- ACTS 15:36-41 INTRODUCTION The term follow up is scriptural and it is very important if we need a healthy, mature and established church.
