     | 729 views

    This shepherd was able to rejoice with his friends and neighbors because his lost sheep was found. He was overjoyed with the rescue of this one, lost sheep.

    Opening illustration: Did you ever have a kid in your neighborhood that always hid so good nobody could find him? We did. After a while we would give up on him and go off, leaving him to rot wherever he was. Soon or later he would show up all-mad because we didn’t keep looking for him. And we would ...read more

    The law is a system based on merit and work – What you do will determine what you get Grace is a system based on FAITH – What you believe will determine what you get John 1:17 says “For the law was given through Moses; grace and truth came through Jesus

    Let me begin with a simple question – have you ever been in a situation where you were disgraced? St James says…“We all stumble in many ways.

    The first son who "refused" to work, eventually did. The second son who "agreed" to work, later decided not to. Those expected to do great things for God can sometimes fail; whereas, those least expected can be used in a mighty way.

    Have you ever felt God asking you to do some type of ministry that you believed was beyond your capabilities, and then you became reluctant? Did you say to yourself, “I’m never going to do that?” This is the way many people respond to the Lord’s call on their life. I’ve heard it said you should ...read more

    Are You Still Throwing Stones At Others?

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 9, 2020
     | 11,864 views

    Let me talk about stones. God requires Christians to take care of each other. Not to pamper people in their wrongs, but to encourage them get back up when they do wrong or fall. We must have that Barnabas Spirit – to be willing to help each other when down.

    John 8:1-12: 8 But Jesus went to the Mount of Olives. 2 Now early in the morning He came again into the temple, and all the people came to Him; and He sat down and taught them. 3 Then the scribes and Pharisees brought to Him a woman caught in adultery. And when they had set her in the midst, 4 they ...read more

    In Part 13 of this series, we examine what Jesus said about our charitable giving being private. When we give to the church or do anything for those in need it should not be publicized in a desire to receive recognition for what we have done.

    This is the third of a three part sermon series I preached during our Month of Missions emphasis. In this particular sermon we considered how the son represents those who willingly and knowingly wander away from God.

    MAIN TEXT - Luke 15:11-32 Over the last couple weeks I have attempted to make a case for us to develop a HEART for MISSIONS – especially here in our “Month of Missions!” In that, I have made it expressly clear that it is all about having a heart that reflects God’s heart! ...read more

    If you have ever undertaken a renovation project, one of the most important questions to ask is what you want out of the project. Things like cost, effort, skill and dedication to the work are all important. But if you don’t have an objective to the project, it quickly spins out of control, ...read more
