    We are quick to forget about the great blessings that God has poured upon us

    Forget Not the Benefits A woman fell out of a second-floor window and landed in a slow-moving garbage truck. Half-buried in the litter, she tried without success to get the truck-driver’s attention. A foreign diplomat standing on the sidewalk saw her and quipped, “another example of how wasteful ...read more

    Jesus came to bring us abundant life.

    In this chapter, Jesus speaks about two kinds of sheep-folds. In the villages there were communal sheep-folds where all the village flocks were sheltered when they returned home at night. These folds were protected by a strong door of which only the watchman had the key. It was to this kind of ...read more

    Honor or "give weight to" parents. Children should a) obey, b) respect, and c) surpass, their parents. Positive and practical for all ages.

    MAKING THE MOST OF YOUR FAMILY—Deuteronomy 5:16 Deuteronomy 5:16 “Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your God has commanded you, so that you may live long and that it may go well with you in the land the LORD your God is giving you.” (Preacher: a few extra words in Deuteronomy, ...read more

    Pray Boldly!

    Can our prayers really change an all-powerful and all-knowing God’s mind? How does prayer work? We’re going to see prayer in action as we examine a prayer offered by Abraham to the Lord. He prayed boldly and the Lord responded. What can we learn from that prayer about the prayers we offer?

    Nearly 1000 years after Abraham lived, the Lord wrote through the psalmist, “Call on me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you will honor me” (Psalm 50:15). The invitation was not a new one from the Lord. It was an invitation that God had extended to his people from the beginning of ...read more

    Loving The Lord

    Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Aug 28, 2019
     | 5,548 views

    Are you a good Samaritan? We might try to help other people, but is that really what Jesus was trying to teach when he told the story about the good Samaritan? Look to what leads up to this parable and see how Jesus' story is so much more than just a lesson teaching us to help other people.

    “Help other people.” When did you learn that lesson? That is one of the very basic lessons that we normally learn at a very early age. Someone drops something, you pick it up. Someone falls down on the playground, you help them up. If there is someone who is need, you share what you have been ...read more

    Marriage - Still A Gift From God

    Contributed by Jonathan Kruschel on Oct 30, 2018
     | 5,101 views

    With all the thoughts concering marriage, there might be some who question if marriage is still a gift from God. Take another look at God's institution of marriage and the blessings that God intends to give through it.

    “Where do I even start?” That was the question that ran through my mind as I started to write this sermon. Having spent time studying Genesis 2 which you heard as our first lesson for this morning, I looked at the computer screen and thought, where do I even start? There are so many different ...read more

     | 9,762 views

    God is perfectly good. What does that mean?

    James speaks to us her about the goodness of God. He refers to God as the “Father of the heavenly lights.” This is the only place in the Bible where God is called by such a title and seems to be used by James for the purpose of emphasizing God’s goodness. The idea of ...read more

    This sermon deals with some of the reasons we fail to draw close to God and the virtues of being close to God.

    How close is close enough? Closer Zeno’s paradox. Imagine I had high school boys and girls lined up at opposite ends of the gym and had them half the distance between them every 10 seconds, how long would it be before they are touching? Well, if I always half the distance, they will never ...read more
