    based on 10 ratings
     | 7,296 views

    A good love song will give you goose bumps, especially if sung by a person who loves you. No matter what happens, Christians need to worship and praise God in song. (Based on a Charles Spurgeon sermon)

    Sermon Notes Holy Songs, Happy Saints Isaiah 5:1-7 (Second in the series Glorifying God) Introduction: Why would someone as busy and serious-minded as Isaiah take time to sing a song?

    Prayer And The Chronically Unhappy

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Apr 21, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,149 views

    For Reformation Sunday, October 1987: Job in the Old Testament and Luther in the Reformation Era were chronically unhappy people, but used that as a form of spiritual energy to drive them toward creative achievement and an honest personal faith.

    It looks as though some people are just born to be unhappy. There are some people who are going to approach nearly everything with a complaint or a gripe, who are going to make a personal issue out of everything. Nothing is quite good enough, nothing quite satisfies. There are folks whose ...read more

    For Worldwide Communion Sunday: How can we, like the Psalmist, be optimistic in the face of international conflict, national dispute, racism, church tension, our personal conflicts? The Cross is God’s reaching out to heal.

    It was an awesome ruin. A hulk of stone, a pile of rubble. Smoke stains clearly visible. Jagged edges its roofline. What once had been a magnificent building lay now exposed to the open air, useless, a scar on the horizon. What terrible thing had happened here to create this ugly defacing of the ...read more
