    Contributed by Mary Erickson on Mar 30, 2022
     | 1,592 views

    Part of a Lenten Sermon Series on people in the gospels who seek out Jesus. This week we consider less than pure motivations in “Seeking Self-Justification.” We hear the story of a man who wants Jesus to settle a dispute between him and his brother.

    March 30, 2022 Hope Lutheran Church Rev. Mary Erickson Luke 12:13-21 Seeking Self-Justification Friends, may grace and peace be yours in abundance in the knowledge of God and Christ Jesus our Lord. Why do we seek Jesus? For direction, for help, for forgiveness. There are many reasons. And if ...read more

  • You Shall Not Covet Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 21, 2021
     | 3,021 views

    In the tenth commandment, God’s searchlight moves from actions to attitudes. The commandment is not against an outward act but it is aimed at a person’s intentions.

    Today I want to talk to you about a problem both the rich and the poor have – the problem of coveting. Remember we have divided the Ten Commandments into two categories: The first four are commandments directly related to God Himself – You Shall No Other gods Before Me… You Shall Not Make Any ...read more

     | 4,780 views

    The ten commandments are the law of God but so often we forget the tenth because we cannot see when others break it. Yet it is the cause for breaking many of the others

    The title of this message is the “The Tenth Commandment” Under the theme “One’s life does not consists in the abundance of possession”. Prayer The tenth commandment is found in the book of Exodus 20:17 17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's ...read more

  • The Rate Of Exchange

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Aug 10, 2021
     | 2,566 views

    Jesus made it clear that you can gain everything the world has to offer, but it rusts, wears out, turns to dust, and you cannot take it with you after you die. If you lose your soul, however, you lose your life for eternity.

    Humanity in its natural state really does not place much value on life, preferring to love death (Proverbs 8:36) in the form of abortions, murders, manslaughter, varied stages and types of physical, emotional, and mental abuse, and a placing on some individuals and groups a stigma of ...read more

    Contributed by Michael Collins on Aug 23, 2021
     | 3,128 views

    This is the 3rd message in a series called Perspectives and this message is about looking at life with God's perspective, rather than with our own.

    Hello and welcome back to another message on ‘Perspectives!’ This is the third message, and today I am dealing with the topic of ‘life’ itself. If you were to say to me, “How is life?” I’d say it’s wonderful, and for that I give praise to God. The question, “What is life?” has been asked by so many ...read more

    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,773 views

    Covetousness is described by Jesus as getting rich towards self, without getting rich towards God.. Christians are warned to take heed and beware of it.

    Beware of Covetousness Study Text: Luke 12: 13 - 21 Introduction: - A man interrupted Jesus in His sermon with the matters of inheritance and his brother, rather than listening to the sermon. - Jesus said to this man, “A man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of things which he ...read more

     | 1,355 views

    I want my life to an altar. Let's us consider giving. Love loves to give. Giving can be a good measure of spiritual maturity.

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 7, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,926 views

    Pivotal events can happen unexpectedly in our lives. If we are able to accept that fact and (at the same time) trust God with the changes that accompany those events, we will manage life better. This message explores unexpected events in Moses's life.

    Today I want to talk about two unexpected events in Moses’s life. One was a glorious encounter with God that set him on the course for the last 40 years of his life. The other was a painful experience that equipped him to fulfill the mission given to him in the first encounter. In both cases the ...read more

  • Selling Out To God Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 20, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,465 views

    Jesus's Parable of Hidden Treasure teaches all-out commitment to the kingdom of God. Christianity is not a little add-on to our busy, selfish life. It is a call to something so valuable that we would give up everything else to have it.

    Last week we began a message entitled “Valuing the Valuable.” That teaching led us to the Parable of the Treasure in Matthew 13:44. That is our text for today. There Jesus said, “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and hid; and for joy over it he goes ...read more

  • Greed Or Need: Keeping Up With The Jones Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021
     | 3,448 views

    Keeping Up with the Jones is an American saying that simply means when you use your friends or neighbors as a benchmark for success. Oftentimes, we look across the street or inside our social circle and become dissatisfied with our lives because we don’t have the same financial success.

    What do you think of when you think of Dallas? For many, Dallas will be connected to the iconic J.R. Ewing who appeared in the famous March 1980 Who Shot J.R. episode and an estimated 83 million people wondered and watched the famous “Dallas” oilman. In the minds of many, the Dallas brand has been ...read more

  • Mind Your Own Business!

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Oct 11, 2020
     | 6,469 views

    If we decide to get involved in another person's business, chances are we will be told to mind our own business. In some cases we should do that but there are other situations when it's appropriate to not mind our own business.

    "MIND YOUR OWN BUSINESS!" A few weeks ago, I did a sermon on opinions. My first point was about people who are opinionated. I talked about those who interject themselves into conversations they weren't invited in to offer their unsolicited opinion. When we do things like that, people ...read more

    Many live under the illusion that we'll be able to live the good life with the right strategy, the proper techniques, and enough discipline. The reality? James says we are not in control of our lives.

    Opening: One day, a young man saw a sign at a restaurant that said, "Free Lunch Tomorrow." The next day he brought his friends to have lunch at the restaurant. When they finished eating, a waiter came to him with the bill of $100 to pay. He was surprised and didn't want to pay. He ...read more

  • In Terms Of Eternity

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Jun 11, 2023
     | 1,532 views

    The Bible teaches that after death (Hebrews 9:27), we will face judgment and enter eternity, either heaven or hell. Consider what that means and how it should motivate us to spread the Gospel in these last days.

    The Bible teaches that from the moment we are conceived, we are destined to live forever (Psalm 61:7; Daniel 12:2; Matthew 25:46: Romans 2:7). The LORD God Almighty saw fit to create us, give us meaning, a purpose, and conscience to use for His glory and our benefit (Psalm 73:25-28; Romans ...read more
