    Jesus' parable of the talents is a call to us to invest all that we are and all that we have in God's kingdom building work. The story reminds us not to compare, but to faithfully invest what we have, and to get to know the Master's heart.

    Matthew 25:14-30 Use It or Lose It Today’s parable is a story about investments. Sometimes we think it’s about using our natural abilities to serve God. Why do we think that? Because the story uses the word “talent” throughout. Our English word “talent” actually comes from that interpretation of ...read more

    What is the issue of being mingled? As we look at today’s scripture, it is telling us that something does not need to be mixed with something else

The past tense form is mingled, which means the mixing has taken place, it has happened. As we look at today’s scripture, it is ...read more

    Use your faith to help your relationship grow deeper with God

    Some people seem to be blessed, while others seem to struggle all of the time. Why is this? Do bad things not happen to them? They just learn how to handle the things and overcome them.

    What's The Difference?

    Contributed by Tree Perkins on Sep 5, 2020

    We've been taught since Sunday school that Jesus is with us and we carry Him in our heart. But Matthew 18:20 tells us that where two or three are gathered, Jesus will be among them. So what makes verse 20 different?

    The last verse in our scripture reading today is my number one all-time favorite verse in the entire Bible. Verse 20 has brought me comfort over the years. Even though verse 20 is my favorite, it’s important to consider verse 19 as it sets the tone for the purpose of gathering in prayer. In vs. 19 ...read more

    Thanksgiving Eve sermon 1989: We have a hard time giving up our attachment to things material. We do need to feel, however, that what we use makes a difference for someone -- a way to love them.

Some react at the thought that we still have not come very far at settling the issue of ...read more
