    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,885 views

    We all face temptation and we are solely responsibility for our actions.

    Text: Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone (James 1:13). What is temptation? Temptation is an enticement, an appeal, an attraction which tends to lead someone to commit an immoral or sinful act. Is there ...read more

    Grumpy Or Joyful

    Contributed by Greg Carr on Mar 7, 2010
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,868 views

    Joy is a state of happiness when we are in communion with God, which leads to gladness, and delight.

    Have you ever met any grumpy people? Don’t say any names out loud! I would imagine that every one of us have seen them from time to time. A grumpy person sees everything in a negative light. They only see the bad in life. They only see the imperfections of others. They are overly critical ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 6,028 views

    This parable is clearly about prayer but exactly what is Jesus teaching us about prayer. Because of interpretative translations, it may not be what you think.

    The Parables of Jesus My BFF @ Midnight Luke 11:1-13 August 2, 2009 This parable is clearly a parable about prayer. Luke has positioned it after Jesus teaches “The Lord’s Prayer,” and has included the saying about prayer that uses the “ask, seek, and knock,” which Matthew has as part of the Sermon ...read more

    No matter how deep of a hole you find yourself in, if you have a relationship with God He will hear, He will find, and He will rescue you, though the victory may not be what you expect, it is accomplishing God's will

    Psalm 18 is the longest Psalm we have dealt with so far at fifty verses. It appears to have been written by David (though some argue against this) at a time after his lengthy battles with enemies that surrounded Israel and Saul’s battle against him for the kingship. It really speaks to the ...read more

    The year is 1885, and it’s the first day of school for the children of this small school in upstate, South Carolina. The last teacher had left unexpectedly, and the students are waiting outside of the one-room school house for the new teacher to arrive.

    He Took My Beating Sierra and I have worked in Children’s Church for many years. Although we are not currently teaching children, I have some very fond memories of those days. The sermon for today is one that I first gave during a ...read more

    What kind of person would you be today if the Holy Spirit had not led you? If God were not guiding you according to His plan and His purpose who would you have followed? Who would have been you role model?

    Can anyone remember how we used to communicate with other people by writing letters? I saw on the news on Friday that the post office want to put up the cost of 2nd class mail.
