    In our series on Stewardship we focused on many issues, one of them being hospitality and its role in the life of the church. God is a hospitable God and in our imitation of him it makes logical sense to include hospitality in our personal ministries.

    BOLD HOSPITALITY As we conclude our series on Stewardship we want to look at one final aspect of managing the good gifts God has given to us. Hospitality is an important part of ministering to others with what we have. If you watch Corner Gas, Canada’s only homegrown successful sit-com, you ...read more

    Psalms 58 And 109 Series

    Contributed by Sam Mccormick on Mar 5, 2020
     | 5,508 views

    The outrage expressed in passages in these psalms are examples of times David seemed to be "fed up" with his enemies. He pours out his fury to God, not intending for his Father to act on the ills he calls for, but for God to see the passion poisoning his heart and send relief.

    For Sermon Central researchers: I have posted a series of 15 sermons on the Psalms. In recent personal studies I have found the psalms to be richer and more thought-provoking than I had fully appreciated. I had too often swept swiftly through psalms without slowing down to inquire as thoroughly as ...read more
