    Bowling Alone: Dying For Lack Of Hope

    Contributed by Michael Stark on Mar 24, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,644 views

    The aloneness that has become a hallmark of our modern age presents a great opportunity for the people of God to present the message of life. As Christ calls people to rest in Him, the churches must echo that call.

    “Come to me, all who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” [1] Robert Putnam raised a red flag for people living in ...read more

    This psalm expresses David's trust in the Lord as all-knowing and righteous and his disappointment with the world around him. David answers the voice of fear with a confident faith in God. This world can be a scary place.

    Sermon: The Believer’s Answer of Faith to the Advice of Fear Psalms 11:1-7 “In the Lord put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain?

    based on 1 rating
     | 687 views

    Fear is real and there are many situations that disturb us and create a sense of fear in our hearts. If we recognize that God is our shield, and put our faith in Him, all our fears are annulled and will be replaced with courage and peace.

    We read in Genesis 15:1, Later the LORD spoke his word to Abram in a vision. He said, "Abram, don't be afraid. I am your shield. Your reward will be very great." (GW) God knows our name There were certain events that transpired in Abram’s life that left him with a sense of fear and ...read more

     | 625 views

    Storms are inevitable—physical, emotional, spiritual. Before they strike, there is often a moment of stillness. Revelation shows us this divine pause, reminding us that God prepares His people before the storm.

    Before the Storm: God's Preparation Revelation 7:1-3 Introduction: A Storm Is Coming Storms are a part of life. Whether physical, emotional, or spiritual, we all face times of great turbulence.

     | 1,124 views

    Does the penalty need to be paid twice? We begin to look at the fact that the Church does not enter the Tribulation; look at the facts and evidence that it does not happen. We have been delivered from wrath that is coming.

    THE CHURCH DOES NOT ENTER THE TRIBULATION – REASONS THAT PROVE IT – PART 1 OF 3 INTRODUCTION I find it reprehensible, the claim that the Church, and Christians of course, will enter the Tribulation. Why do I find it reprehensible? If you think Christians must enter into the Tribulation, even ...read more

    God is good. He always does what is right, and always acts for the good of those who follow Christ.

    How many of you say grace at meals? At our house, we divide it up by days. So on Monday, I give thanks, on Tuesday, it’s my wife, and so on. That arrangement at least eliminates arguments over whose turn it is to pray, although enthusiasm for the task varies considerably. We don’t have a set ...read more

    This message looks at some Bible passages on the cave of despair. How do people tend to act when they find themselves in such a dark place? What do we need to do, in order for God to deliver us into a place of hope and life?

    I want to get us started with our message this morning by sharing an illustration that I’ve used on numerous occasions: Back when I was in college, I used to go cave exploring with a friend as often as possible.
