    The issue of homosexuality has brought so much pain to so many people. It's time for believers neither to excuse it nor to ignore it but to take a stand and be a part of the healing process.

    Almost every day for the past month our local newspaper has been filled with editorials about the issue we face as a state concerning marriage. Just over a week ago I came across one which I’d like to read for you… “I am a father, uncle, brother, son, grandson, godfather, small ...read more

    How do we interpret our present time? Do we understand the times?

    “The Charge of the Light Brigade: Why All the Noise?” Jer. 4:11-12, 22-28 & 8:18-9:1; Mt. 24:3-14 & 36-44 Jesus, and the New Testament authors, spoke frequently about his second coming. One scholar indicated that 1 out of every 15 verses in the New Testament speaks about it. And yet we seldom ...read more

    The beginning of the church. The new beginnings of the church as looked at through The Story, adapted from Max Lucado and Randy Frazee.

    A New Beginning The Story - 28 May 1, 2011 It’s amazing what could happen in a short period of time, isn’t it? Two weeks ago, Jesus came into Jerusalem with screams of joy and celebration.

    How do we buy into the lame excuses we offer without crumbling under the internal conflict we generate from living in ways that are contrary to what we say we believe? The truth is, it all comes down to the way we view the world – it comes down to what f

    I want to tell you a story this morning – a funny, yet strangely disturbing story. The setting was a small group retreat with a bunch of teenage boys – I was one of the leaders. We’d had a really good weekend; sharing our faith stories, digging into the Scriptures, spending time ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 17,324 views

    In these critical times, violence everywhere, immorality everywhere, wars and rumors of wars, the faith of a good mother is a powerful weapon against the wiles of the devil.

    Introduction: Motherhood is a ministry; the moment the Lord commanded us to be fruitful and multiply was the very moment that the ministry of motherhood began. In life, we generally come across various forms of relationships like father-son, husband-wife, love, friendship and others, but the ...read more

    based on 9 ratings
     | 12,908 views

    Jeremiah’s experience with the Rechabites shaped his message on fatherhood and guidance. We need to renew our commitment to parenting and to responding to parental guidance.

    I guess every teenager grapples with who he is. For me, a 17-year-old, away from home and “on my own” at college, I was ever so much “smarter” than I am today and certainly “much smarter” than my own father who had attended college and seminary on a “catch as catch can” basis and had no degree to ...read more
