    The Challenge facing the church today is: IS THERE A PLACE FOR OUR CHILDREN IN MINISTRY? IS THERE A LAD HERE WITH GIFTS TO OFFER? IS THERE A GIRL HERE WHO HAS GIFTS TO OFFER? Well, let’s see as we approach our Target Text.

    “I will give my voice to the Lord. All the words I bring, all the songs I sing, I will give them to the Lord. I will give my hands to the Lord. All the things they do will be good and true, I will give them to the Lord. I will give my heart to the Lord. All the things I love are for Him above, I ...read more

    Jesus Needs A Break! (Mark 7:24-37)

    Contributed by David Smith on Nov 5, 2007
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,724 views

    Jesus Needs a Break! Depictions of Christ suffering on the cross are common in Christian literature and iconography. Few though are the depictions of Jesus walking around..

    Our Gospel reading this morning is from Mark chapter 7, where we come across a Jesus who is tired - tired, I think, to the point of exhaustion. This is not the sort of depiction of Jesus that is given much attention by the church. I’ve never seen a stained-glass window with an image of Jesus ...read more

    based on 15 ratings
     | 18,410 views

    God wants His people to be “A Blessed People.” Happily this blessing is not restricted in usage or potency to God’s ancient people but brings great joy, grace, and peace to Christians as well.

    NUMBERS 6: 22-27 A PEOPLE OF BLESSING [2 Corinthians 13:14 / Ephesians 1:3] God wants His people to be “A Blessed People.” A blessing is God’s way of asking for His divine favor to rest upon others. This benediction before us is most beautiful. The ancient blessing evoked in ...read more

    The church today is not operating in God’s upside down, right side up principles. This is part 2 in a series that will give our churches some good direction in being the kind of Jesus had in mind.

    What is the church? The church is people. It is not the building we meet in, it is the people who meet in the building. The church is made up of all the people throughout the world and throughout history who have accepted Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. Is the church perfect? No. Was ...read more

     | 4,531 views

    When the U. S. Government tries to force religious entities to choose between our faith and their mandates, we have to choose God every time.

    Chipping Away At Our Religious Freedom Today’s message is connected to last week’s message in part only because the President and his administration, mainly Health and Human Services Secretary, Kathleen Sebelius are deeply involved in chipping away at our 1st amendment rights to freedom ...read more

     | 5,846 views

    This is the second message in a series from the book of Ecclesiastes that examines Solomon's wisdom in regard to the mistakes that he had made in his life. This message examines the pursuit of success how it is always elusive and leaves one feeling empty.

    Dear Diary, “I want to be a success but the harder I pursue success the more empty I feel.” As we begin I really feel that we must answer three extremely difficult questions. What drives you? What causes you to work the way you do? What happens to all you have worked for when you exit ...read more

    Respectable Sins – Pride What are you most proud of? Do you take pride in your work? Are you proud of your children?

    The Separation Of Church And State

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Jul 9, 2014
     | 6,045 views

    How does all of this "Separation of Church and State" fit in with what the Bible teaches? Should we as Christians lay aside our beliefs if and when the Lord calls us to serve in the government of our nation? God forbid!

    Suppose your nation was fighting a war. And … there were great and talented leaders in charge. Your nation had never lost a war and was a dominant power in the world. However, in this nation public opinion was turning against the war and the elected officials who were worried about their ...read more
