    There’s a song by John Stallings that reminds me of the message this morning. It speaks about the bottom line principle that will enable you to love yourself. The song is entitled, “Learning To Lean.” The greatest commandment passage has within it the most posing challenge for you and for me; ...read more

    We know we should love our neighbor, but how do we practically do it? Let’s look.

    Loving Your Neighbor Matthew 22:36-40 Relationships are the key to life. Jesus said all of the commandments of God can be boiled down to just two - Loving God and Loving your neighbor as yourself. By themselves they are too vague for self centered humans to follow.

    We’re in Matthew 22, and Jesus is brawling! To be exact, we’re in the last round of a three-round brawl, where over the chapter in Matthew’s Gospel we’ve seen Jesus do battle with a group known as ‘the Herodians’, followed by a round with the Sadducees, followed by this week’s third and deciding ...read more

    Our Great Command

    We tend to view love as a warm fuzzy feeling reserved for a select few of our friends and family. However, God calls us to a life of holy love – a love founded on His love for us and built with decisive actions instead of feelings.

    Introduction: When I was in school studying to become a pastor, a fellow student said, “Church work would be a lot easier if it weren’t for people.” Me (my dilemma or question) I laughed at my friend’s statement – church work is about people. Pastors work with people day in and day out. Here are ...read more
