    THE BEST SUMMER EVER UNJUDGED OUTLINE THE BEST SUMMER EVER UNJUDGED 1 Therefore you are inexcusable, O man, whoever you are who judge, for in whatever you judge another you condemn yourself; for you who judge practice the same things. 2 But we know that the judgment of God is according to ...read more

    Christ offers his life for us, the undeserving; now we are to offer our lives as "living sacrifices" for him.

    Text: Romans 5: 6-8 This morning I want to talk to you about SACRIFICE. Not like some of the sacrifices we are from time to time asked to make…perhaps financial sacrifice, or sacrifice of some of our time. ….But the kind of sacrifice wherein one person lays down their life for the sake of ...read more

    There is always something nagging at us and causing us to not worship wholey, what is it?

    We all have problems in our lives. Some are vocal about them and share with anyone and everyone that will listen. Some air them out on Social Media for the entire world to see. Some confide in a select few to share with. Some just bottle them up and pretend like everything is perfect. We’ve all got ...read more

    God’s church is for everyone. But everyone does not feel welcome in every church.

    Illus: There is a small country church in Columbia, South Carolina that has around twenty in attendance. If you visit that church you will discover two things immediately. (1) You had better not say anything about anyone because everyone is related. (2) If you are not a member of this family, you ...read more

    What are the advantages of being faithfulness to God, the other, and the self?

    Reflection The readings of today (1 Kings 19:9a;11-16, Matthew 5:27-32), call each one of us to reflect on the topic: Faithfulness. Faithfulness to God, means living the Covenantal relationship with God, being in touch with Him all the time or being aware of His presence all the time, wherever ...read more

    The God Of Success Series

    Contributed by David Owens on Nov 19, 2018
     | 3,683 views

    The god of success does not offer lasting meaning and purpose, but when we give our lives to God and are saved by grace, we have peace as we look forward to hearing Jesus' words, "Well done, my good and faithful servant."

    Whenever you're feeling down or having a sense of worthlessness, remember that you are unique to God and have been put here for a very specific purpose. Know what your purpose is!

    I was speaking to an old friend last week. His Birthday is the day following mine. We’ve been friends for over thirty years but, as men typically do, we don’t really talk all that much but never fail to communicate at Birthday time. Its funny how it works with us.

    The Folly Of Man Series

    based on 3 ratings
     | 7,726 views

    Jeroboam seeks God only when he wants something, only on his own terms, only to fix his problems, and only for himself. We are to seek God for WHO He is. We worship Him and obey Him because He is the Lord of our lives.

    In 1 Kings 13, God interrupted the King’s pagan worship proceedings when he sent a man of God to declare His judgement. • He gave King Jeroboam a chance to repent, but 13:33 says EVEN AFTER THIS, the King did not change his evil ways. Sadly, the King made no effort in knowing God or ...read more

    The New Testament never requires sacrifices or dreams or visions as either the means or the indicator of spirituality. . . If we focus on Jesus and His word, we will remain anchored in truth and humility

    16 Therefore do not let anyone judge you by what you eat or drink, or with regard to a religious festival, a New Moon celebration or a Sabbath day. 17 These are a shadow of the things that were to come; the reality, however, is found in Christ. 18 Do not let anyone who delights in false humility ...read more

    Jesus offers rest to His followers--from the troubles of the world, yes, but especially from the burdensome weight (the yoke) of the Law.

    One of the highlights of our trip to Germany—beyond all of the historical Luther sites and exhibits—was the opportunity to visit the city of Osnabruck. There’s nothing of particular importance for Lutherans about Osnabruck. We visited purely for my own sake. My branch of the Meyer family came ...read more

    Don't look at the big setback, see the big picture. Don't look at the big self, see the works of God. Don't look at the big things, listen to the voice of God.

    Elijah had a great victory against the false prophets of Baal on Mount Carmel. • He challenged the 450 prophets to call on their god to bring down fire and burn up the sacrifice.

    When was the last time you stopped to remind yourself of the battle we are fighting?

    As some of you already know, last week was hard. A good friend of mine disqualified himself from ministry due to an inappropriate relationship with a woman in his church. While the need for vigilance in this area is fresh on my mind, I want to try to redeem this tragedy by offering the following 7 ...read more
