     | 20,692 views

    The Psalmist’s questions: “How can I repay the LORD?” We can all answer “We cannot repay!” Indeed, we cannot even pay the interest on our debt.

    A DEBT WE CAN NEVER REPAY “What shall I render to the LORD For all His benefits toward me? I will take up the cup of salvation, and call upon the name of the LORD. I will pay my vows to the LORD now in the presence of all His people. ” Psalm 116:12-14 NKJV The Holman Christian Standard Bible ...read more

    In times of financial stress, God knows the pressures on us. Our problem is that we want both material and spiritual security at the same time. The answer is faithfulness to the core values of ministry and witness.

    A little snatch of dialogue from a television show caught my attention. Could it be true, or was it just so much pretentious hype? Could it be right, or was it just another exercise in excuse-making? The character who spoke, I noticed, was dressed tres chic and lived in a lavish house with a ...read more

    "What does it take to bring people to Jesus?" The answer is what it has always been: God’s truth shared in love and friendship, illustrated daily in the life of the one sharing the Gospel.

    Making the Invitation John 1:40-42 One of the two who heard John speak, and followed Him, was Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother.

    Is it worth it to follow Christ? Is it worth it to live faithfully? Is it worth it to give faithfully? Paul’s answer is, "I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us."

    This message is based on three verses: Romans 8:18, 26, 28. The Bible states that those who sell out to Jesus Christ have the power of God at work within them. We’re not going to be living perfect lives. All of our lives, we’re going to be saying with Paul, "Wretched man that I am! Who will set me ...read more

    A lot of people consider the flood to be a myth - or at best, a localized event. But we consider Scriptural and scientific evidence for the flood and how it answers many questions about our earth and our destiny.

    So we come to Chapter 7 - the Flood This is the single greatest judgment ever to hit planet earth - so far. This and chapter 8 are also one of the hardest for us humans to swallow.

    Excuses are the nails used to build a house of failure. The Genesis’ account answers the age old question, "Who’s to blame." There are no more excuses and we can discover this as we examine it together!

    Introduction We’d all like to say, "It’s was their fault..." we’re always looking for someone else to blame. No one wants to accept the responsiblity for their own actions, it’s always "Someone elses fault." This isn’t something new either. It dates as far back as the Genesis account. It began in ...read more
