    In this text we are going to talk about something that most folks do not like to talk about, that is SNAKES!

    Illus: When it comes to snakes, most of us are like the fellow who said that the only kind of snakes he likes are dead snakes. However, we all have seen some people who enjoy playing with these slimy creatures. Every time we see people doing this, we experience a comforting feeling from within ...read more

    Peter reminds us that we are not home! It is easy to forget who we are in Jesus and where we are going because of Jesus. This passage serves as a reminder of Who’s we are and where we are going.

    1 Peter 1:3-7 “A Living Hope” September 15, 2024 In the first verse of this chapter, Peter addresses his letter to “the strangers scattered”. He is writing to Jewish believers who have been forced to leave their homeland and have found themselves dispersed into other parts of the world. Peter ...read more

    This is an introductory sermon to a series on First Peter. In this sermon, we get reacquainted with the man who wrote it, the people to whom he sent it, and the particular situation that prompted him to write it.

    Introduction: A. Maybe you’ve heard the statement: “Where there’s life, there’s hope!” 1. Like most sayings, it has an element of truth, but no guarantee of certainty. 2. It is not the fact of life and determines hope, rather it is the faith of life that determines ...read more

    There’s a difference between dead-end religion and living faith.

    I expect the issue of minimum wage will come up in Congress again this year. There are good arguments on both sides - Those who are in favor of raising it will argue, rightly, that you can’t support a family on a minimum wage job, and that people who “work hard and play by the rules” should be able ...read more

    In Jesus we find all we need to know about God.

    THE LIVING WORD John 1:1-2 INTRO. This passage is one of the great summits of Holy Scripture. Notice how abruptly John plunges into the depths of eternal truth. He makes no effort to explain himself or his argument. It almost seems as if John was standing at the foot of some enormous ...read more
