    As we preach through Ephesians we find it is not a difficult book to UNDERSTAND.

    Illus: Speaking of things DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND reminds me of the story of the man who was walking on the beach one day and he came across a bottle. He kicked it and a “Genie” came swooping out. The “Genie” thanked him for releasing him from the bottle and told the man he was so thankful that ...read more

    An ordination service ... Day after day commitment, all the while realizing the Lord could come back at any moment...

    My father-in-law is a farmer. Over the years, I have come to learn and appreciate what that means. When a yuppie comes out here from the city and decides to have a farm because it sounds so quaint, they aren’t really farmers. They may like playing around with the horses and maybe even doing a day ...read more

    Gos still uses people in incredible ways. He changes lives when we least expect it. He uses people and situations for His good.

    The Apostle Paul writes in his letter to the Romans. Chapter 15 verse 4, “For whatever was written in earlier times was written for our instruction, that through perseverance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope.” And hope is certainly what we find as we study the ...read more

     | 1,967 views

    This is Paul’s fourth appeal to try to get them to come to their senses.

    As we have seen, Paul does not understand why these backsliding Galatian Christians wanted to return to the bondage of the law. In this appeal, he seems to appeal to their common sense, something that many in this country seem to have lost. Illus: I saw this sad announcement and thought about ...read more

     | 1,232 views

    We all deal with fear from time to time. There is one fear that is not only necessary but can be beneficial: that is the fear of God.

    We all deal with fear from time to time. Some people give into fear, and some people do everything they can to avoid those things that make them afraid. As most of you know, I will be retiring on the last day of this year. Several have expressed a concern over that. Having a pastor for over 28 ...read more

    Daniel was captured and taken from Jerusalem to Babylon. While there, he faced a number of challenges. How he faced these could well be an inspiration for us even today.

    Daniel—the captive prince Introduction: Daniel is one of the most well-known people in the whole Bible.
