Scripture: Numbers 32:23
God put the church here for a specific purpose! It is obvious today as we look at many churches and compare them with the scriptures, that many churches are ignorant of their purpose.
Ignorance is something we see in all areas of life. Illus: When Vice President Al Gore was seeking to be president, he was running against President George W. Bush, who is known as a man of FAITH. God is a big part of his life. Gore knew that the polls indicated that the American people liked ...read more
Scripture: Romans 10:13-14
As a pastor I find this verse of scripture amazing. Why? Because this verse tells us two amazing things: the New Testament church was:
• IN ONE ACCORD • IN ONE PLACE. Accomplishing either one of these would be marvelous, but to accomplish both is astounding. Illus: This couldn’t be a Baptist Church!!! Can you imagine getting everyone to attend. Illus: Occasionally, many churches have a “NO EXCUSE SUNDAY,” trying to get ...read more
Scripture: Acts 2:1-12
There are rich Christians who live in utter poverty says Jesus. But to the church in Smyrna He says, "I know your afflictions and your poverty-yet you are rich!" So you have in the judgment of Jesus your poor Christians who are rich, and your rich Christians who are poor.
One of the great paradoxes of life is the fact that the poor can be richer than the rich. Poverty is no necessary hindrance to being wealthy. Wealth, on the other hand, is no guarantee of being truly rich. Even rich Christians are often not rich just because they have wealth. Charles Schultz, ...read more

Scripture: John 15:18-25, John 16:1-4
The sermon emphasizes the vital role of gathering as a church community to encourage, support, and strengthen one another in love and faith as we follow Christ.
There’s a sacred sweetness in the sound of gathered voices. A familiar face across the aisle. A hug that lingers just a moment longer than usual. Coffee cups, creaky pews, and kind words. It all whispers a truth our souls know well: we are meant to be together. Life presses in with long weeks and ...read more

Jesus’ authoritative word brings transformation, silences evil, and calls us from passive belief to active, obedient faith that surrenders fully to Him.
Friends, welcome. Some of us arrive carrying questions that kept us awake last night, some with a quiet ache we can’t quite name. Hear this hope: when Jesus speaks, storms settle, souls steady, and rooms grow still. There’s a holy hush that falls wherever He’s taken seriously. His words are not ...read more

The are some spiritual laws regarding prayer.
I again Ponder. Today I ponder prayer. I love to pray. Prayer is my way of releasing faith and submitting my heart to the Divine plan for me. I think good prayer is talking, and praying in the Spirit, and praising. But I have learned good prayer takes time to be still and allow time to listen. ...read more
