     | 13,069 views

    The chief priests decided to kill Jesus and Lazarus, who had become important evidence of Jesus’ miracles. One would think that he had committed high treason! It was nothing over which he had control, and yet they considered him worthy of death.

    When new people come into the church they need attention just as Saul needed it. Let’s think about specific needs they have. 1- They need acceptance 2- They need protection 3- They need patience 4- They need instruction

    INTRO.- How were you treated the first time you ever came to church? Obviously, if you were raised in the church as a child, more than likely, you were treated well.

    based on 1 rating
     | 9,897 views

    To escape the presence of God is not rational thinking, certainly for a prophet of God. But how many of us are rational when we reject God’s commands and escape his attention? And that leads us to consider how much Jonah is like us.

    Jonah 1:1-4 Fleeing from God 10/19/14 D. Marion Clark Introduction Responding to the call of God is a mixed bag among biblical characters. There is Abraham, the model of obedience.

    based on 424 ratings
     | 42,381 views

    When we think of stewardship, we often see it merely as a matter of our giving of money to God and the church. Giving of tithes and offerings is an important aspect of stewardship, but secondary. Stewardship is a reflection of my relationship with God.

    Stewardship is Lordship Proverbs 3:5-10 Trust in the LORD with all your heart; and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct your paths. Be not wise in your own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil. It shall be health to your navel, and marrow ...read more

    Church conflicts happen for pretty unusual reasons. In the 1890s there was a small Baptist church in Mayfield County, Kentucky. The church had just two deacons, and those two men seemed to be constantly arguing and bickering with each other. On a particular Sunday, one deacon put up a small wooden ...read more
