    There is a saying that goes: once saved always saved. But is there any truth to that?

    You cannot lose your salvation, but can you walk away from it? Beloved, when it come to the words: “DO NOT” many of us have a problem with those words. Do not touch do not go do not pass do not take do not give do not gossip. Many have no respect or fear and I mean are not afraid of ...read more

    We actually have three stories being told here. Three stories. One parable. One big truth and here it is. Lost things matter to God. God spends a great deal of time looking for his people.

    “Finding our way Home” Luke 15 A good friend of mine and I drove all the way to Detroit to see a baseball game. I had never been to the old Tiger’s stadium and they were playing my favorite team so we made the trek. I took my car and getting to Detroit was not a problem but ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 6,142 views

    This is the third of a three part sermon series I preached during our Month of Missions emphasis. In this particular sermon we considered how the son represents those who willingly and knowingly wander away from God.

    MAIN TEXT - Luke 15:11-32 Over the last couple weeks I have attempted to make a case for us to develop a HEART for MISSIONS – especially here in our “Month of Missions!” In that, I have made it expressly clear that it is all about having a heart that reflects God’s heart! ...read more

  • Burden For The Lost

    Contributed by Samuel M on Feb 2, 2024
     | 992 views

    The elder son was in close proximity to the Father, but their hearts were far apart. The elder son's thinking differed from the father's thinking. Despite residing at Father's house, the elder brother did not share the Father's burden for the lost son.

    And he arose and came to his father. But when he was still a great way off, his father saw him and had compassion, and ran and fell on his neck and kissed him. Luke 15:20 The prodigal son has returned to the Father, but there are many elder sons who still have not returned to the Father. ...read more

     | 7,640 views

    This sermon examines the relationship between the prodigal son, unjust steward, and the hearer. It draws upon the parallels among all three to make a Gospel application. I am indebted to Dr. David Schmidt's observations on this text found on 1517.org for the idea.

    A few weeks ago, I bought the movie Dunkirk on sale, which is about the evacuation of over 300,000 British troops after the Fall of France in World War II. I tried to watch this movie at night as I was going to bed. Between falling asleep, helping with Mia, or checking my phone, the movie took ...read more

    The Prodigal's father is a picture of how God “sees us,” reaches out to us, & restores our rights as children of God. He gave him the ring of sonship, the sandals of redemption, the robe of righteousness, & the fatted calf (eternal blessings).

    “WHILE HE WAS A GREAT WAY OFF...” Luke 15:20-24 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. There’s a story told of a husband and wife who were both doctors – one a doctor of theology and the other a doctor of medicine.

    The story of the prodigal son is presented as an example of repentance.

    Forgive Me For I Have Sinned Luke 15:11-32 Introduction: At some time in the distant past, someone decided to divide a circle into 360 equal parts and call them “degrees.” Terminology related to the circle has wormed its way into our language.
