    based on 9 ratings
     | 5,578 views

    We can find ourselves in precarious positions where we wonder what will become of us. And yet our sovereign God is using even our weakness to accomplish His purposes.

    Passage: Acts 23:12-35 Intro: Our lives are filled with questions. 1. when we were seniors in college and not in a serious relationship, we asked “who?” 2. all of our lives we are asked, “What are you going to be…?” 3. and when we are in trouble, we ask two questions: “When is this going to end, ...read more

    This week we are starting a new series of messages taken from Hebrews 11. Its a series of messages looking at heroes of faith - people who did extraordinary things for God - Big things - but what we often miss is that they were people, just like us...

    This message looks at how God sometimes uses suffering and always takes longer than we want to accomplish his goals for us!

    In Hebrews 11 we have this great list of people who lived by faith. They were just normal people, but because they trusted God with everything they had they became extraordinary! It wasn’t that they were special...it was that their faith was special. What I love about looking at their stories is ...read more

    David was so moved by his friendship with Jonathan that he just wanted to pay respect to someone in Jonathan’s family. David wanted that “feel” or “association” with his best friend Jonathan! David refused to let his memories and the covenant that he and

Text: 2 Samuel 9:1-8,11b 1.Now David said, “Is there still anyone who is left of the house of Saul, that I may show him kindness for Jonathan’s sake?”2 And there was a servant of the house of Saul whose name was Ziba.

     | 2,980 views

    Being the church requires we show one another the full extent of our love.

    I’ll wash yours if you wash mine. Thinking about last week and the verse John 13:34 and 35 where Jesus says “A new command I give you love one another as I have loved you. All men will know that you are my disciples if you love one another.” We talked loving each other as Jesus loved us and ...read more

    Romans 8 gives us a great picture of God's love both "in us" and "for us."

    God's Gift of Love Romans 8:31-39 * James 1:17 says, “Every generous act and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights; with Him there is no variation or shadow cast by turning.” Think about those two things, “generous acts & perfect gifts.” ...read more

    The Baptism of the Lord January 10 2010 The first thing we should do today is correct a Hollywood-produced misconception about John’s baptism.

    The Gentile Christmas

     | 6,655 views

    An Epiphany sermon I preached on 1/7/2009 at the Salem Lutheran Home chapel, Elk Horn, Iowa.

    In some ways, you could say that Epiphany is the “last hurrah” of Christmas. It’s the day when we remember the visit of the wise men, or magi as they are called in our text, to worship the Christ child and present the gifts of Gold, Frankincense, and Myrrh. It’s a great scene, one that’s often ...read more

    I am ready to live for Jesus like I should. What should that look like in my life? How do I know if I am doing what I should be doing?

    Am I Living for Jesus? Hebrews 10:19-22 Introduction A couple weeks ago on Sunday night, we found out that Jesus did some pretty incredible things for us, when I preached from verses 11-18.

    Here walked a man that the disciples were drooling over. He was righteous, rich, and ready to become a follower of Jesus. But the standards were out of reach for him.
