    Why are people so passionate to kill and torture good and innocent people who bring them God's good news? And what makes the gospel so compelling, that others will not keep silent about it?

    [Sermon preached on 14 January 2018, 2nd Sunday after Epiphany / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] Over the past few weeks I had a great opportunity to catch up with reading books that I have wanted to read for a long time.

    Many will reject the sound doctrines of the bible to have their "Itching ears" satisfied. They will seek out teachers and preachers to make them feel good about themselves and to have their sins justified.

    Yesterday on Facebook, a quote from A.W. Tozer popped up (I follow the “A.W. Tozer - Daily Inspirations from Great Christians” FB page). It so much applied to today’s message: "A whole new generation of Christians has come up believing that it is possible to “accept” Christ without forsaking ...read more

    "but I Want To Fight Back!"

    Contributed by Randall Long on Apr 1, 2019
     | 3,433 views

    Instead of fighting back when someone does us wrong, we can witness that He is greater than whatever has been taken from us.

    The teaching in today's passage is hard for the average person to swallow. When I first read it as a child, I flat-out told Jesus He was wrong. Adolescence refined me; in high school I remarked that this was a lovely thought, but that it just wouldn't work in the real world. Oddly ...read more

    Though every situation is different, God wants the lost to be found; your burden is not yours alone. This message is to encourage those of us burdened for lost or straying family and dear friends.

    The Search (Luke 15:1-10; Psalm 139:7-12) 1. C Ryle writes this: We may use all means, by but we cannot command success. We may teach, but we cannot convert. We may show those around us the bread and water of life, but we cannot make them eat and drink it. We may point out the way to eternal ...read more

    The Easy Way To Love Your Neighbor Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jan 14, 2020
     | 3,736 views

    The story of the Samaritan and his compassion is instructive for us to consider how we treat our neighbors.

    LOVE THY NEIGHBOR: Loving your neighbor is not difficult as long as you get to define “neighbor.” - Luke 10:29. - We often define “neighbor” as those we like and who like us back. People like us who we are comfortable around. - Further, we define “love” cheaply: liking a post, offering a ...read more

    To decide to delay is to decide to deny.

    When I was around 10 years old, my grandma gave me a bunch of unused stamps and told me to hang on to them because they’d be worth a lot of money in the future. For the past 50 years I’ve known I had them in a file but never got around to checking on their value. Thinking this would make for a ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,987 views

    In Phil. 1:12-18 we get a glimpse of Paul's attitude toward his circumstances and his critics. Paul sees beyond what Satan is doing and rejoices in what God is doing. He does not allow contentious, sectarian Christians to irritate him.

    We are learning from Paul’s epistle to the Philippians. Our text today is Philippians 1:12-18. Let's read that to get a general feel of what Paul is saying in the passage. “Now I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel. 13 As a result, ...read more
