    This is a study of God’s command for us to “INCREASE” and then an examination of the 5 principles the Bible gives us concerning spiritual growth.

    The Lutheran/Biblical Mind Seeks God's Revealed Will, Not His Hidden Will Series

    Contributed by Daniel Habben on Jul 23, 2017
     | 5,959 views

    Where should I live? Whom should I marry? How can I find out God's will in the matter? You can't. His will in those matters is hidden from us. However when we seek his revealed will, we can make decisions about our lives in faith rather than fear.

    Kids, have you ever passed notes to your friends during class? I never did that of course because I was a very serious student, but my friends would do that and every now and then one of those notes would be intercepted by the teacher. How do you suppose the author of the note felt about that? Well ...read more

    A sermon about laying your burdens down.

    “Burdens?” Luke 13:10-17 I have poor posture. When I see other people with good posture, I really admire their ability to sit or stand up straight, naturally—without even thinking about it. Mary Ellen has naturally good posture. My little 1 year old Owen has naturally ...read more

    Spiritual Growth Or Bust

    Contributed by John Gaston on Dec 15, 2016
     | 6,975 views

    Spiritual growth is not optional. Jesus never criticized too much faith, but too little. Sin is increasing; to compete we must increase. Our area of activity (evangelism) should be increasing! "Your faith is growing more and more!" 2 Th. 1:3. Let's grow!

    “SPIRITUAL GROWTH OR BUST” INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. I had a wedding last week & one this week, so a little wedding humor seems in order. 2. It was the day Victoria had been waiting for – her wedding day. Her father was a wealthy businessman. 3. At the culmination of the wedding, her father ...read more

     | 7,344 views

    I would guess that many of us can identify with this statement because we feel the same way at this time of year. We have no room. There are several things that begin to happen when we get to this point. None of them are good.

    “No Room” Luke 2:1-7 You may not want to know that there are only two weeks left until Christmas. Hopefully you have been getting ready, you have made your list and checked it twice and you will even have some time to slow down and enjoy the season. I am of the belief that may people, probably ...read more

    Defilement Comes From Within Series

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Mar 22, 2021
     | 3,702 views

    It is not the food you eat or religious observation you practice that enables you to claim that you are right with God. Your attitude, behavior, and response to His commands show whether or not your life is defiled before Him.

    Worship is supposed to come from a grateful heart and mind, focused on how God's mercy and grace has taken us off of the road to hell and by the redemptive work of Jesus Christ on our behalf, placed us on the narrow road leading to eternal life. Our submission to Him as Lord and Savior, ...read more
