    We get in shape for God as we learn to serve and be a servant to others.

The billfold represents the financial resources that we earn or are given to us. The Bible represents the faith that we proclaim. Now, keeping in mind the meanings of these ...read more

    Peter gives us a description of how elders should carry out their work. They are shepherds, not administrators.

    As most of you know, my personal biography includes many years as a manager in a large organization, and part of my job was to interview and hire people. Over the years, as the jobs that I was responsible to fill got higher up in the organization, the job descriptions expanded. The years of ...read more

    In this message we examine what Jesus said about how we should treat our enemies. This follows what we covered last week where Jesus talked about how we should be willing to turn the other cheek. To be a part of His kingdom, we must learn to love our enemies.

    Living in the Kingdom 12 Scripture: Matthew 5:43-48; 7:12; Leviticus 19:18; James 4:17 In my message last week I shared with you what Jesus said about turning the other cheek and going the extra mile without being asked.

    Stewards Of The Mysteries

    Contributed by Charles Scott on Aug 14, 2016
     | 6,066 views

    Paul doesn’t describe himself as a clergyman. He describes himself as servant and steward. The servant role indicated hard lowly work. The steward role was carefully administering the Gospel mystery: God in Christ reconciling the world to Himself

    2014 ADVENT 3 stewards of the mysteries I Corinthians 4__1 The Collect.

    The third sermon of the ‘People’s Choice Sermon Series.’

    Last week I shared with you the challenge that I sometimes face in sermon preparation when there is an abundance of material and you begin by asking the Lord to help you focus in the direction He would have you go so as to speak what He would have you speak.

    Advent is a time of preparation and repentance, and it turns out that Joseph’s story has a few things to teach about those very things.

    Joseph…the husband of Mary. The Bible doesn’t really tell us that much about Joseph. Legend has it that he was an elderly widow. Supposedly that explains why he was able to honor Mary’s virginity during the first months of their marriage and why he quietly disappears from the narrative sometime ...read more
