    God frequently trims our resources to get us to depend entirely on Him. When we’re serving in God’s army we become part of the “overwhelming minority.”

    “The Sword of the Lord" Pastor Bob Leroe, Cliftondale Congregational Church, Saugus, Massachusetts Many of us are familiar with the management concept of downsizing—we’re told to “do more with less”. However, nations don’t usually downsize when preparing for war! They mobilize their reserves ...read more

    Dennis ______ lived about 68 years and died after a severe battle with cancer. His life and his Bible (I use the deceased’s Bible to see what was important to them) faith and service were of great value to him.

    "Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God, believe also in Me. "In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you.

    As a nation, state, and people, we know debt. In Romans 13, Paul calls us to have one more debt: love one another.

    Being in debt is never fun, nor is it easy. As a country, we know what it is like to be in debt. Our national debt is astronomical. It is roughly 19 trillion dollars. If you were to break that down, that would be $61,000 per citizen, or $165,000 per tax payer. This debt is also not going down ...read more

    Motives For Giving Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 13, 2023
     | 3,718 views

    It is important for us not just to give to the Lord, but to give with the right motives. Jesus rebukes those who gave with the wrong motives, so we need to carefully consider our motives and how our motives align with God’s purposes and glorify God.

    What motivates people to give? You could read about results of research on this topic about what part of giving is motivated by self interest and what part is motivated by serving others. Our interest here is not the human psychology side of giving motivation, but the biblical motivation. What do ...read more

    Using the contemporary concept of "identity theft," the sermon asks the question, what does it mean to "know Jesus." It includes a connection to the issue of global warming.

    Imagine if you will, a certain man – we’ll call him Joshua – who comes each day to sit on a park bench. Another man – we’ll call this one Barney – has never actually met Joshua, let alone sat with him on that park bench. Barney lives quite some distance from Joshua. He does, however, know ...read more

    You can be a good person and still die lost and go to hell. You can be a bad person and die saved and go to heaven.

    Saul and David illustrate the differences between true and false success in life.

    If there is a quote that I count among my favorites, it is the quote from George W. Truett, who said that “True success is knowing God’s will and being in the center of it.” Implied in that quote is that there is a type of success that is true and another that is false. In this ...read more
