    Don’t Worry, its not what you think. The Biblical (KJV) word for donkey is often a synonym for a fool. But as we will find, Balaam’s talking donkey was more wise than he was, and wiser than some we may meet.

    When God Spoke Through An Ass Joshua 13:22, Num 22:21-35 How would you feel if an animal spoke to you? The story is told of a man who bought a beautiful, exotic, tropical parrot from a local pet store. The pet store owner said that the parrot could talk and after demonstrating a few sentences ...read more

    No matter your status, as long as you are called by His name or you are a member of His vineyard, Matt 7:21-27 calls you a fool if you meddle your will with the Father's will or you have retained your old identity in following Him.

    In the part of the world where I came from, it is insulting to direct such a question at an individual. The truth is that our response to any statement goes beyond the surface meaning. And in this case, we believe that before you could direct such a question at an individual, you have ...read more

    This sermon has two points. 1. The believer’s life is a battle. 2. The believer’s hope is in heaven.

    One Mother – Two Nations Part #2 - Jacob “Esau became a skillful hunter, a man of the field, but Jacob was a peaceful man, living in tents.” Genesis 25:27 (NASB) Today we want to look at the character of Jacob.

    The Camel Squeezed Out From Tail To Snout

    Contributed by Bob Joyce on Oct 10, 2007
     | 2,997 views

    Jesus call to discipleship is a call of sacrifice. Anything that stands in the way of answering that call must be deserted. This truth is shown through the encounter of Jesus with the rich young ruler.

    Little did I know when I planned this sermon, that we would have a live camel at VBS this year. At any rate, I want to tell you a story. It is the story of the ill-fated Franklin expedition to the Arctic in 1845. That odyssey was a turning point in Arctic exploration because of its well-publicized ...read more

    We have been given freely out of Christ’s rich grace. How we respond to that grace will be seen in how freely we give to others.

    Freely Give Matthew 10:1-15 Jesus called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to cast out evil spirits and to heal every kind of disease and illness.

    The rich man showed no concern for his family until he found himself in eternity with God. Let us be careful to win them while there is still time.

    Pastor Rex E. Faile, Sr. Lakewood Christian Church Winning Our Loved Ones To Christ Intro: Our sign out front says it all: “The Only Thing We Can Take To Heaven Is Each Other.” The rich man died and in hell the first thing he thought about was his 5 brothers (Luke 16:28).

     | 4,286 views

    The rich young ruler’s question was off-base. It assumes that we can do one overriding deed to win God over; it is possessive; and it is self-centered.

    I am not very good at giving gifts. I just have a hard time, when Christmas and birthdays and anniversaries roll around, a hard time giving the right gifts. It’s not that the folks I want to give to are picky or unworthy; it’s just that I can’t seem to figure out what they want and get it. For ...read more

     | 23,717 views

    The Rich Young Ruler missed Heaven and never really knew Jesus because he lacked just one thing. Do we lack the same thing?

    How the heart of God must ache for His people who often live far below the place in God where God intends for them to be. I often wonder, “God, am I all that you want be to be? Am I living in a manner that is pleasing to you? Are my goals in sync with your will?” I want so much to ...read more
