    The Ethiopian Eunuch didn’t understand the Bible until someone explained it to him. The whole Bible points to Jesus’ life death and resurrection.

    In a few minutes we’ll say the creed, as we do most weeks, and we’ll repeat these words almost without thinking: "For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again - in accordance with the Scriptures." I wonder whether we ever stop ...read more

    This is an introductory sermon for the book of Romans. I am looking at the heart of Paul

    INTRODUCTION • It has been said that the pen is mightier than the sword. In many cases that can be a true statement. A sword put in the hands of another person has the power to take life, but the sword does not have the power to truly change a life. • The pen put in the wrong hands can destroy a ...read more

    "Why is all this happening to me? I read the Bible, pray, attend church, and tithe." This is exactly what Gideon was saying when he said, "Why then?"

    Hebrew 11:31, 32 Judges 6:1-16 "Why then" or “Where be” Israel has been over ran by the invasion of the Midianites. This was not primarily a military invasion like that of an army invading a land. This invasion was more of a gypsy-type migration. The Midianites came into the land of Israel ...read more

    Many people make the mistake of reading what the Bible says in Exodus 20:13, “You shall not kill,” and then seek to apply this command to war.

    There is a phrase in the Bible that transitions from any given situation to an act of God. It is inspiring to read as a Christian the phrase "But God". I share some that are meaningful to me.

    But God Genesis 50:15-21 There are times in our lives when the intentions of some toward us are not good and there are others things concerning us we are so undeserving. There is a phrase that changes the dynamics of all these things that should mean so very much to each of us and that phrase is ...read more

    - for too many, the Bible ends up being a coffee table decoration, but not something that is a powerful force in their daily life. - v. 12a - “powerful” - the Word of God is powerful. - I struggled at the beginning in writing this message about the power of the Word because I was looking more ...read more
