    Moses lost the chance to enter into the promised land because he was disobedient to God. That disobedience was caused by anger, pride, and lack of faith.

    Water from the Rock After Moses had led the people out of Egypt, he had sent twelve spies into the promised land to see what lay before them. Because of the report brought back by ten of those spies, the people lose their faith in the Lord and fail to take the land. In chapter 14 of Numbers, the ...read more

    Philip’s call to travel the road to Gaza doesn’t make human sense, but it reminds us to trust God when we have to go through the wilderness of life experiences.

    There is a theme in American Literature, U.S. movies, and Broadway musicals where protagonists from rural areas come to the big city and make it big. Even Clark Kent has to move from the farm to Metropolis before he makes the big time as the investigative reporter who doubles as Superman. And we ...read more

    God Answers Prayer, But Not Always.

    based on 6 ratings
     | 8,226 views

    We all know the reality of unanswered prayer, but do we know the why of unanswered prayer?

    God Answers Prayer, But Not Always Lends a whole new meaning to “I’m praying for you” doesn’t it? Prayer helps us feel closer to God, more connected to the church and extremely guilty if it is perceived that we don’t do it enough or correctly. And this is one of the ...read more

    The man by the pool was trapped by hopelessness until he turned in the direction of true hope.

    Questions and their answers can tell you a lot about a person. In fact one of the keys to being successful in life is to learn to ask the right questions. What we see in this passage is someone who was so far down, so removed from any real hope that he probably didn’t even really know what ...read more

     | 4,028 views

    In closing out a series on the last part of the Letter to the Church at Rome, this sermon examines Paul’s use of personal names and how they tie to some of the themes of the book.

    The Name Game Text: Romans 16:1-27 How many of you like to watch the credits at the end of a movie?

     | 7,311 views

    This message looks at what we can learn from Jesus about Giving.

    If there's anything more annoying than a preacher who is always bringing money into the mix, it's one who sneaks money into his messages. One minute he's talking about love and prayer and then wham the next minute he's talking about what people give and don't give and then he has the audacity to ...read more

    We know in theory we can find grace anywhere, but in practice can find it in a brothel?

    Grace in an Unlikely Place If you are like most people, then your family tree probably has some folks in it that you’d rather not talk about. Not just the nuts and saps that collect in most trees but people that when you are drawing your family tree you are tempted to use the white out. We ...read more

    The Cradle That Rocked The World

     | 4,909 views

    Paul said this God-Man was “Preeminent,” which means UNRIVALED, UNEQUALED, MATCHLESS, & UNSURPASSED 4. That’s why when He was born in Bethlehem, His was the “Cradle that Rocked the World.”

     | 7,858 views

    When we think of Charlie Brown we usually think of defeat or failure. This message looks to Job for answers to Charlie Brown's life.

    When I think of Charlie Brown one of two images immediately comes to mind. And maybe it’s the same with you. It’s either the scene of Charlie Brown staring forlornly into the tree that has once again eaten his kite or it’s Charlie Brown lying flat on his back after Lucy has ...read more
