    Rest For Today And Forever

    I preached this at my grandmother’s funeral. She was 88 and althogh her health had been declining, her death was very sudden. Her last request of me was to officiate at her funeral, which I did and was the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my ministry.

    (Reading of the obituary) I think it’s pretty safe to say that this day came as a great shock to almost every one of us in this room here today. While we knew that Grandma wasn’t in the best of health, and had some past health issues a little over 4 years ago, none of us thought that we’d be ...read more

    Notice: 1. the request for God’s wisdom (vs. 5a) 2. the riches of God’s wisdom (vs. 5b) 3. the roadblocks to God’s wisdom (vs. 6-11) 4. the road of God’s wisdom (vs. 12)

    True satisfaction comes not from physical needs but from seeking God through prayer and His Word, which alone nourishes and sustains our deepest hunger.

    There’s a kind of hunger that a full pantry can’t fix. You know the feeling. You stand in front of an open refrigerator—food everywhere—yet your soul still feels thin. Our bodies crave calories; our hearts crave a word from God. In a world of buzzing phones and bulging schedules, the deepest ache ...read more

    How severely should we deal with sin? Is it possible to lead a holy life? Why should we do so? You will find answers to all of these questions and more in this sermon.

    We read in Mark 9:43-47, "If your hand causes you to stumble, cut it off; it is better for you to enter life crippled, than, having your two hands, to go into hell, into the unquenchable fire, [where their worm does not die, and the fire is not quenched.]” If your foot causes you to stumble, ...read more

    Philippians 1:3-8 teaches us to put the fellowship of the gospel at the center of our relationships.

    Scripture In January we began a series of sermons on Paul’s letter to the Philippians that I am calling, “The Christian’s Contentment.” Paul’s letter to the Philippians follows the letter-writing convention of his day. The pattern was to give the names of the writers and recipients at the ...read more

    Jump-Starting Jabez

    We have learned, thanks to Bruce Wilkinson’s writings, to treasure the prayer of Jabez; but what can we intuit that Jabez’ mother did for him: she honored his uniqueness, she owned her own pain and shared it with her son, and she move him toward faithful prayer.

    You know how they say that behind every good man there is a good woman? Well, they used to say that. That is a pre-feminist proverb. Now they say that alongside every good man there is a good woman, like Newton’s Law, equal in force but opposite in direction! But I certainly find it true that ...read more

    Lot was saved because God ANSWERED Abraham's prayer back in Genesis 18:23-32. James 5:16 (NLT) says "...The earnest prayer of a righteous person has great power and produces wonderful results." So Lot starts afresh and they ALL LIVE HAPPILY EVER AFTER. NO

    Jesus Christ, Our Great High Priest

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Apr 13, 2022
     | 2,117 views

    On the last night of Jesus' life before going to the cross, He spent time with the Father in prayer, serving as our great High Priest making intercession with God the Father on our behalf (Hebrews 3:1, 6:20). This "high priestly" prayer warrants our attention.

    So far in John's gospel, we have encountered glorious portraits of the life, work, and teachings of the Lord Jesus Christ that give "many convincing proofs" (Acts 1:3) of HIs divinity and godly authority which no one else can ever claim. He healed the sick, raised the dead, fed the ...read more

    The Book We Skip And The God We Need

    How would you like to pray to this god to answer your desperate prayers each day? Prayer would be a gamble each and every time. If you were single and you were praying for love and marriage, this kind of mercurial god might give you Hannibal Lecter or Jeffrey Epstein for a boyfriend!

    Find the book of Nahum with me, a small book with a massive view of God. You won’t wake up one day to find Nahum trending on social media. If the Bible were a playlist, Nahum would be the song you’d skip every time. It’s the book we totally ignore. But we shouldn’t ignore it. Here’s why you ...read more

    “Our fathers ate the manna in the wilderness; as it is written, ‘HE GAVE THEM BREAD OUT OF HEAVEN TO EAT.’ ” 32 Jesus then said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, it is not Moses who has given you the bread out of heaven, but it is My Father who gives you the ...read more

    Jesus would have us as a local church to get involved in outreach for Kingdom growth.

    Reaching Out in Love I Thessalonians 2:8 (New Century Version) “Because we loved you, we were happy to share not only God’s good news with you; but even our own lives.” A year ago we did a survey of 350 homes in our community.

    Job’s three friends talked too much and listened too little. We should resist interpreting God’s will for another person’s disaster. What people really need is compassionate listeners. (PowerPoint slides to accompany this talk are available on request – email: gcurley@gcurley.info)
