    A deductive exposition of the text calling individuals prompted by the Holy Spirit to indicate their commitment to replace one habit in the next 6 months by signing a response card and placing it on the altar rail.

    Introduction: What does HOPE mean to you? I’m afraid that too often we use HOPE to mean a futile wish or an ineffective dream. When people talk of HOPE they usually do so with a feeling of resignation or despair. But real HOPE is a much stronger idea. In "The Lord of the Rings", one character is ...read more

    What is your response to the Potter today? Are you yielding all of your rights to Him so He can transform you according to His perfect plan, process and power?

That is what God wants us to experience as we speak the truth in love out of obedience and grow up in all aspects into ...read more

    Jesus drew the strength for that amazing response from His complete trust in His Father’s ultimate purpose to accomplish justice on His behalf, and against His hateful rejecters.

    If you were not out this morning and you turned on your TV, you would probably see a bunch a shiny buildings, with a happy message of prosperity.

     | 20,131 views

    In Daniel 1:1-8 we learn about several strategies that are designed to bring about compromise. We also learn about the response designed to bring about conviction.

There are two main reasons prompting me to preach from Daniel. First, I would like preach from a book in the Old Testament. Some of you have asked ...read more

    In response to Virginia Tech: we have choices -- to choose to live in the here and now; to choose to give life to our children by contradicting this violent culture; and to choose life eternal for ourselves.

    “I had no choice.” Of all the things we heard this past week from the deeply disturbed mind of Cho Seung Hui, that stands out for me as key: “I had no choice.” Cho Seung Hui felt trapped and cornered. He felt driven to do this terrible thing. In his mind, every victim was to blame – they were ...read more

    God has given us so much! This sermon challenges us to take action in our world as a sign of God’s kingdom breaking in, and as a response of thankfulness to God.

    When I look at the wonderful variety of fruit and vegetables that we can grow, I find myself saying, “Thank you God!” A few years ago in Portugal I remember looking out to sea and being amazed at the sight of the sun setting over the ocean and saying, “Thank you God”; and I remember the first time ...read more
