    This sermon deals with having and raising children

    Somebody to Love Genesis 5:1-2 For the past two weeks, we’ve been talking about marriage. We’ve considered what marriage ought to look like, our roles and how we live into God’s picture for marriage. But the Book of Genesis isn’t just about relationships and marriage, ...read more

    In this message, we discuss Self-Craving; Self-Indulgence; Self-Pity; and Self-Denial.

    Right before Israel and Judah fell to the Assyrians and Babylonians, God called several prophets to warm the people that devastation would soon follow and to encourage them to repent. As these prophets recorded these events, they paid particular attention to the peoples’ attitude, no doubt ...read more

    So Loved

    Let us all take out our towels from our drawers and kneel down before others, and serve them as Jesus serves us, by loving them unto the end. Let us each serve our Lord, by serving all people, in the grace of God’s ultimate and sacrificial love.

    INTRO One of the neatest gifts I’ve ever received was this little, hand towel. I was given this during my seminary commencement, and have cherished it ever since. The towel has a little saying on it: “Blessed to be a blessing” Isaiah 61:1. Isaiah 61:1-2 says: “The ...read more

    Rethinking Love

    Jesus love is raging, it’s extravagant, it’s illogical, it’s over-the-top, it’s revolutionary, it pushes the boundaries of how we define love.

    A while back there was a news story on the BBC about a teenage girl in England who had her boyfriend’s nickname tattooed in Chinese on her stomach, symbolic of her “undying love” for him. A tattoo on your stomach?—that’s got to hurt. A little later—and who would ...read more

    Love Well Series

    To be able to love well means I have to embrace the 4 letter word “Love” in its original definition and application – Because that word “Love” has been twisted and distorted by this world – But the true meaning of love goes back to God’s meaning of love!

    Video Transition Illustration: Love Boldly Bluefish Tv – Maybe we could call rephrase it “Love Well in 2022” The challenge for 2022 – Are you willing to commit to “Love Well” this new year?

    The Bible says that we are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that we declare the praises of him who called us out of darkness into his wonderful light. One of the ways we declare the praises of God is by operating in love.

    Love Or Cosmetology? Series

    Valentine's Day: If church members do Christian things like feed the homeless or go on mission trips, and these acts are done without love, then people are just wasting their time. Without love, God doesn’t care what we do for Him.

    Neil Postman writes in his book Amusing Ourselves to Death, “that we have reached the point where cosmetics has replaced ideology [or “practice”] as [a] field of expertise.”(1) The verb “cosmeticize” means, “to make something unpleasant or ugly superficially attractive.”(2) It’s common for people ...read more

    Valentine's Day: Human beings have distorted the meaning of love. Some of the distortions about love are that love is purely physical, or that love is only a temporary state. These interpretations about love are way off base.

    The Greek writer Lucian who lived from 120-200 A.D. made an observation about Christians. He said, “It is incredible to see the fervor with which the people of that religion help each other in their wants. They spare nothing. Their first [leader, Jesus], has put it into their heads that they are ...read more

    Let's look at the first of the great commandments, loving God.

    Before we get into the topic of loving God deeply, let’s do a little housekeeping. Mark 12:30 seems to add a word, “you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.” Where does the extra word come from? When the Bible ...read more

    Let's take a look at the second of the great commandments, love of neighbor. Matthew 22:39-40 The second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Prophets.” The second great commandment is to love our neighbor as ourselves. ...read more

    Genuine believers put in great effort toward loving fellow believers, and yet are willing to be hated for doing right.

    Love in Bloom (I John 3:11-18) 1. In the world, a lot of people do things for spite. Here are a few real life examples from some blogs: Today, my boss got mad at me because I told her that I wouldn't be able to work two days out of the week, due to college classes. She then cut back my hours ...read more

    What are we willing to do selflessly for the love of Jesus?

    Done For Love John 12: 1 - 8 Intro: As I worked on this sermon, I heard in my head a song from “A Chorus Line.” I can imagine Mary singing this song later in her life. It goes like this, “Kiss today goodbye, the sweetness and the sorrow. Wish me luck, the same to you. But I can’t regret what ...read more

    There are some stories that are so wonderful they leave us feeling blessed just by hearing them. The story of God's extravagant love is one such story.

    There are certain stories that at the moment you read them or hear them they have the ability to really tug on the strings of the heart. They are so moving, so beautiful that you can’t help but feel blessed just by the mere fact of having heard or read them. This is exactly the way I felt when I ...read more
